Puerto Vallarta  Restaurant Week FAQ

1. Does the price include drinks and tips?

No. The fixed menus ($495, $575, $690 MXN) cover the 3-course dinner only. Beverages, wine pairings, and a standard 15-20% gratuity are additional.

2. Do I need reservations during Vallarta Pride?

Absolutely. Since Restaurant Week overlaps with Pride (May 17-25), Zona Romántica favorites will be at 100% capacity. Book via WhatsApp at least 3 days in advance.

3. Is the menu available for lunch?

Generally, no. This is a dinner-focused festival. Most participating kitchens switch to their Restaurant Week menus starting at 6:00 PM.

4. Are there vegetarian or vegan options?

Most chefs include one vegetarian choice per course, but it’s not guaranteed at every location. Always check the restaurant’s specific PDF menu before booking.

5. Does the price include the 16% IVA tax?

Yes. In Mexico, menu prices must legally include the 16% IVA tax. The $495/575/690 is your final food price—only the tip and drinks should be added to your total.
