   Dinner at the Hacienda is always special due to the beautiful setting, and the mariachis. It is a bit pricey compared to other PV restaurants, but the food is very good — especially the short ribs. The sea bass is way overpriced. Definitely worth a visit to experience an old Mexican hacienda and hear the mariachis.

   We never make a trip to Puerto Vallarta without including Hacienda San Angel in our dinner plans. We introduced our special place to our dear friends who were traveling with us and their mouths were agape in awe of this very special venue and experience. At first coming up the narrow cobble-stoned street, the taxi let us out and we had to climb up the sidewalk leading to the entrance. The large, solid wooden door is locked. I pull the rope which jingled the doorbell. It was eerie because the street had no people around and it was a bit scary. I'm glad it wasn't dark yet. After a few minutes , somebody finally opens the door to let us in. He had a list of reservations on a clipboard on which my name appeared. He checked us in. This is a house built in the 1950's featuring amazing statues, antique furniture, a working fountain, massive vines and bougainvillea trees immersed with hot pink blossoms. It has terracotta floors and a steep ceramic staircase leading to a religious worship area. Another staircase leads to the terrace where there are tables draped in white cloth and chairs for all the restaurant patrons. There is also a newer elevator installed for all us seniors who can't climb the steps. That was a very smart upgrade. On the rooftop terrace there is also a swimming pool with a stage covering a portion of it to allow for the most amazing performance of the mariachi band starting at 7:30. The hacienda also has rooms they rent out for guests. Attention to detail is evident throughout and it is immaculate! The tables are all set with fine china with the HSA insignia imprinted on the dinner plates. The view of the bay and cityscape into the mountain is lit up as we catch the sunset. The Waite staff attends to our every need. Marco is our lead waiter who is beyond professional and eloquent. We start with drinks and salads. A loaf of crusty hot bread was delivered to our table. That, to me was the sign of a great meal ahead. I had a beet and goat cheese terrine sa

   A magical dining experience overlooking Puerto Vallarta Centro. Filet mignon is worth the price. Menu prices are on par with other high-end PV restaurants we have visited, but the quality, ambience and view, combined with the musical depth and talent of the mariachi band (trumpet, violins, guitars), took it to another level.

   We are regulars at the Hacienda. Unfortunately, this time service was lacking. We repeatedly had to ask for mimosas, coffee and la cuenta.
   

   Hacienda San Angel GourmetResponded 6 days ago

   Oops. Not okay. I am so sorry. I am very grateful that you took the time to let me know so I can address the lapse you experienced. I am very sorry that you did not have the service we both expect of the Hacienda. I will address this with the team so that it doesn't happen again. We do have some new staff and I will put more effort this week to support them in doing better. Thank you for your patronage. Your enjoyment and feedback are valued.

    A wonderful experience with great food and great service. The brunch was delicious but it is difficult to get a reservation.
