Great little spot for a quick bite. Terrific tacos with fresh ingredients, super inexpensive and just west of the main square.

This place is hidden on the side of the road with a great outside seating area. Kind of a jungle vibe with lots a tables placed on wood chips in different areas. We had some issues with ants so spray your feet with bug spray. Lots of great craft beer on tap. Also tried some of the appetizers and they were all delicious. We played cards and enjoyed the beers. We would definitely go back again.

We were really hoping to be impressed by this place given the reviews we had read. Unfortunately, we were super disappointed. Although the flavors were very good (as was the service), both dishes we ordered were clearly reheated rather than freshly prepared. The coconut shrimp was tasty, but the mango dipping sauce had been sitting so long that a film had formed on the top - not at all appetizing. We also ordered the calamari, which had been very definitely been re-fried from an earlier preparation. AND - they presented a very nice alternative to chips and salsa with what I believe was a sweet potato chip - that several of which were soggy. All together, very disappointing for a place that we were very excited to try.

Good traditional Mexican food, great service, good value, variety of menu options including vegetarian/GF, indoor/outdoor seating. I would go back.I liked the food and great service here and especially the multitude of vegetarian and gluten-free options as well as the variety of traditional dishes. The portions are very large. One overfilled taco here is equivalent to two nearly everywhere else.My companion loved the pork "pibil" tacos, and while I liked them, I found the meat similar to Hawaiian pulled pork though the sauce was more complex. This had been recommended so I had expected more.The cactus tacos were interesting and new, but the mushroom tacos were just so-so. The gorgeous, spicy pico and salsas and the house-made, blue corn tortillas make up for it though.The restaurant offers streetside dining and also has a few tables inside. There are a few restaurants close together, so you can distinguish it by the bright, green tables. It would take more than one visit to really give an appropriate rating as the menu is so diverse.

Colorful and flavourful burritos and tacos. Good value for your money. You sit basically on the sidewalk next to the road but for a quick bite this place is great.

We caught a red snapper while out fishing earlier in the day and we asked what place would cook it up for us and the caption pointed us to Tierra Viva! We dropped the fish off and was told to come back about an hour and a half for dinner. The restaurant is all open on the corner so we had great people watching. We were greeted by Victor and he was AMAZING! They brought us ceviche to start that had the red snapper, fresh tomatoes, cucumber, cilantro and lime juice and it was amazing. Then our dinner of red snapper was served two ways, butter and garlic and then also coated in sesame seeds and served with two sauces to bring out the flavor and also fresh steamed vegetables and rice. The food was outstanding along with the service. We will certainly come back next time in town!

Nuevo restaurante en sayulita por calle revolucion y niños heroes
Reviewed By SkykomishBob
This is not the place I rated some years back by the same name, it appears. This time it was well worthy of the high TA rating. Maybe I just read the map wrong last time.We wanted a light dinner so we shared orders of fish and shrimp tacos, and it is hard to imagine anyone does these simple items better. The shrimp and the fish were cooked to the first hint of done-ness, and everything else was as it ought to be. The fish was so succulent we were reminded of Dungeness crab. And prices are terrific. It seems like theyâve got a happy hour or two-fer promo going all the time. Even with all the good places to eat here in S. weâll make it back here at least once more this trip.Great food, very welcoming, and excellent prices are a tough combination to beat.

Es un lugar que te hace sentir como en casa, con comida sabor casero que conquista hasta al mas dificil paladar.
Reviewed By Sylvia2024
I had the catch of the day, Mahi-Mahi, with limon amarillo, steamed vegetables, crab dip with jalapeno plus a margarita. This was the best meal I've had in decades. I'll be back tomorrow; no need to eat anywhere else. Also, the servers went above and beyond to make my visit enjoyable. No need to look any further, this place is the best!
