About
Tuna Blanca with the style and essence of Cafe des Artistes, but with a Mexican menu and atmosphere, beach type, chic and romantic, that gets in to a fusion with the best products of the region, organic, cultivated by the hands of local producers and fresh seafood provided by the fisherman of the Anclote beach. There is no doubt, an enigmatic restaurant, an obligated visit in Punta Mita.

Had an amazing dinner/experience. We did the tasting menu paired with the wine tasting and it was fabulous. The service from David was spot on and he did a fantastic job walking us through the food and wine tastings. To top it off it was...our anniversary and they brought out a surfboard decorated with deserts and candied decorations. It was an awesome ending to amazing night.More

Delicious and great service. David was a great waiter. Best food we had in Puerto. Takes a while to get through dinner, but a really nice experience. Great for a special occasion. The dessert can be custom made. Contact them ahead of time if you...want something special done.More

Drinks were delicious - loved the passion fruit with tequila. We had the suckling pig tacos, tuna tostada, shrimp dish and octopus. All were exceptional - our favorite was the tuna tostada. Alex and Diego were prompt and super attentive. Everyone here was very sweet...and helpful. We would definitely come back!!More

Terrible experience. We had reservations and once we sat down, it took almost 45 mins to get our drinks. The table behind us left after waiting over an hour to order. We ordered appetizers and entrees, after an hour and fifteen minutes we cancelled our...appetizers since they hadn’t arrived yet, but they showed up five minutes later, tried to send them back, but they insisted we take them, on the house. Less than ten minutes later the entrees arrived. Meal would have been redeemable if the food was good, but filet was underdone and had no seasoning, the octopus was slimy and tasteless, tuna medallions were supposed to have clams, but came with three empty shells in sauce, short ribs were the best at the table, but mediocre compared to other restaurants. After entrees we asked for the check, ten minutes later they brought over a dessert that we didn’t order. The beach setting was pretty, but felt like a second location of the Four Seasons kids club with kids running around the restaurant and inattentive parents ignoring them. Our bill for two adults and two teens was $250 USD. After over two hours we left very unsatisfied and disappointed that we wasted our last night in Mexico at Tuna Blanca.More

Tuna Blanca did not disappoint! We had a wonderful dinner to celebrate a birthday. The wait staff team of David and Guillermo went out of their way to accommodate our every whim. They truly made the evening memorable. We started with a table side Caesar...salad. What a treat! Then I had a cream of prawn and pumpkin soup served from a large ,real pumpkin tureen . Again not only was the presentation beautiful, but the taste was every bit as good. A couple of us had the lobster special which was delicious. The staff does all the work and deshells it in front of you. One of us had shrimp with grasshoppers-but with no grasshoppers not even on the side. David had a good time with this one and kept asking our daughter if she didn’t want to try just one! The evening was finished off with a surf board that had a birthday greeting in spun sugar and a sparkler. We chose the flowerpot dessert-a delicious chocolate mousse with cookie crumbles. I also appreciate the hostess and management that stepped up and was able to move our table to an outside prime area. This restaurant has it all-great food, gracious staff and a beautiful location!More

We didn't have a reservation but saw the reviews and decided to take a chance. They were totally booked but Elias asked us to wait in the bar and in 10 mins they had a table for us and it just got better. Our waiter...was Alex who was amazing. He was very knowledgeable of the food and preparation. He was assisted by James(Bond). They were a great team. Can't say enough about the place.More
