Vainilla Pimienta Bistrodeli

Fantastic food, with very good service! Would go back in a heartbeat. Very recommended!

This restaurant has a new owner and I would recommend avoiding it. They are very short staff-Wit staff literally guided - that is not a nice atmosphere. They're running out of several big ducks. Slow service and stone cold food. But what's more important is that I got food... poisoning from the shrimps. I am 100% confident that it was their shrimps. My husband ate exactly what I did all day except the cooked shrimps. The doctor agreed to my symptoms of toxins in shrimps. IV drip after severe illness. Week of antibiotics after. We went back to talk to the owner to let them know that maybe their supplier is not good or how they store them. She's not talking to us. She let a young male waiter do her job. Don't eat here. Your life can depend on it!

This is by far the best restaurant in Melaque San Patricio. The food was exceptional. From appetizers (which could serve as a main dish). I shared a goat cheese, spinach and beet salad with a friend. My husband ordered Clams Rockerfeller (it could have been...a main course). The main dishes were PERFECT. The meat was cooked to perfection and my shrimp curry was delicately seasoned with just the right spices. Even though we should have skipped dessert, we decided that everything was so perfect, that we just had to try their house specialty Goat Cheese cake with berry topping, my husband had the chocolate cake and our guest the tiramisu!!!! Once again perfect. My husband refuses to go anywhere else after this. The ambiance is relaxed and fun, the staff courteous and knowledgeable. Strongly recommend them to anyone visiting Melaque. Bon Proveccio!

NIce atmosphere on 2nd level, open air restaurant; the menu must change based on whats fresh because it was a chalkboard (which I love); we had excellent service by Brian and he was also very helpful with our limited speaking of Spanish. He recommended great...wine choices and menu picks. Totally enjoyed our food and thought it was fairly priced. My only complaint was it was extremely hot that evening and I wished there had been fans.

We had a group of 8. All meals were exceptional with taste, presentation and choice. There were fillet mignon, pig dog, shrimp, ribs and salads. We finished our meal with flaming Spanish coffees. We met the cook and the manager. They checked after the meal to see if we were satisfied with our meals and service. Both excellent. Thanks for making my last night of my vacation so special. Recommend this restaurant!
