This was our favorite restaurant in PV last year. We went twice and wrote an excellent review. However, this year it was just terrible. The calamari was hard as a rock with unpleasant batter. The snapper was dry and tastless and the service was poor…as well. Please make changes asap!More

Loved everything here. Service was great and food came out in a normal amount of time. Was seated right away when we came on a Tuesday night around 8pm. It’s at the marina, so parking will be a bit difficulty closeby, but out on the…main road you can probably find a few spaces and a short walk will take you to the restaurant. We got the Mojito and Prosseco, Fried Calamari Rings, Fettuccini with seafood, and Coconut Shrimp and we’d recommend all of them. Price is not the cheapest. Came to around $60 usd or so. You can probably find a cheaper restaurant, but compared to the US, it is still a great value.More

Pezlimon has a great location with both indoor/outdoor seating. I called earlier in the day to make a reservation and our table was ready when we arrived. They set us up under the overhang as it had been raining but they happily moved us back…to the lawn upon request. It was a beautiful evening and had a nice view of the marina boats. It was nice that the kids could get up and run around on the boardwalk. There is a sports bar next door that can get loud depending on what’s on TV. This was not an issue for us but is good to know. The service was excellent and the staff were attentive. A guest at our table wanted a sample of the lobster bisque which they brought out without issue. I believe this is a new restaurant still finding their footing. We thought the food was okay but perhaps we were just an off table. We ordered the calamari rings as an appetizer. They were overcooked and rubbery. The fish tacos arrived with mostly breading and no fish. The waiter took them away and brought grilled tacos instead (without any fuss). The grilled tacos were better but not nearly as good as a few local counters we visited. The shrimp poke bowl was mostly good. Great presentation, tasty shrimp, dressing on the side, small portion. However, the rice had an odd texture and was mushy, not the usual sushi style rice. The coconut shrimp entrée had a good amount of large shrimp. The coconut flavor was bold and tasty. The menu said it came with mashed potatoes but there were only small bits of it holding the shrimp in place. This was disappointing as the guest wanted the mashed potatoes for his son. I ordered the tuna sashimi. It was pretty good but not what i was expecting. Pezlimon had posted a photo of a plate of tuna sashimi on their facebook page that looked amazing. I received a small portion of tuna chunks possibly the tuna tartar, which were fresh and had a flavorful light sauce. It was much smaller than expected and not the same as the photo. Even though it was good, I had chosen the restaurant because of that photo. We wish the restaurant well! We had a nice evening 🙂More

This tiny restaurant offers delicious fish served with interesting side dishes such as sweet potato. The menu is small but the fish makes it worth the trip. There is outdoor seating which is also a plus

Walked by a few times and did not look like much of place but noticed the colorful tables and chairs. Looked it up and the reviews were ok so we decided to try it. Only tied 5 things of which the octopus “wings” were nice…a spicy like chicken wings, The Pezlimon tostada was pretty much the best tasting and the pork belly part of the sea belly taco also nice. The fish and shrimp taco pretty decent, the beef mediocre in taste but nicely cooked and the hand made tostadas outstanding. Service is good, fast attentive.More

Daniel and the crew at Pezlimon bistro are amazing. Located at the marina, they prepare the freshest ahi and mahi mahi you have ever tasted. The food was excellent as well as the service. We will return again and again

The concierge at Club Regina recommended this place and we were delighted to find it! It is clearly for seafood lovers and quite small so easily missed when walking at the marina so get good directions and book ahead. Service is fantastic and food even…better. The homemade fat chips and salsa were delicious as were the 2 ceviches we had. We shared the sea bass which was delicious but the best of all was the seared tuna…unlike any we have had…it was like having a prime filet but tuna instead of beef! We loved everything so much we went back to dinner a second time…don’t miss this restaurant!More

We were sitting outside and another restaurant patron put ketchup on my friend. This person followed him and when he was wiping off the ketchup he took two of his credit cards. His girlfriend watched us. I liked this place but if you go here…look out for the scammers if you sit on the walk way. We were moved up to the walkway from the garden area. The person them charged thousands of dollars on the card.More

We love this place! We’re in Puerto Vallarta every few months and we eat here multiple times during our stays. They have the BEST ceviche in the marina, the BEST burger in the marina, and the BEST margaritas in the marina!!! If you haven’t tried…Pezlimon yet, you really need to stop by!!! Miguel, Carlos, and Daniel are AWESOME! They’ll take great care of you!!More

This is such a great little spot in the Marina. Miguel, Carlos and Daniel are always excellent in their customer service. The Ceviche and steak tacos are fantastic and probably one of the best Margaritas in PV, see you soon, we will be back

A hidden gem in the Marina. Skip the noisy sports bar and relax at Pezlimon. Most of the restaurants in this area are geared to American tourists. Pezlimon serves delicious Mexican food and has a great bar and super friendly staff.

its so strange to see all the Americans headed for what they know, loud, noisy restaurants with Mexican and other food that they can get at home. We are Americans also, but always like to try out small and relatively new places. Pezlimon is wonderful…on so many levels. We sat outside of this unpretentious little restaurant at a table with candle and tablecloth. I had tuna Ceviche , which was very delicious …the tuna was fresh . My husband had ceviche octopus. same experience . Lots of lime and fresh vegetables. Next I chose the Fish of the Day , which was mani mani. this was the best mani mani I have every had and clearly so fresh and tender. I did not want rice , requested and received nicely steamed broccoli and cauliflower . My husband had a unique shrimp hamburger , which he enjoyed very much. For dessert , we had flan . Service was impeccable, 2 young wait staffers with very good English skills . Loved this place !!!!More
