Alfonso creates another restaurant paradise on the North-side of the bay; Litibu Grill is fabulous!!

My happy favorite place, do I share it with others or hope it stays our secret forever? Honest to gosh that was a tough call. I’m a connector and love sharing all that is good, or in this instance great about our area… the selfish bit of me wanted this all just for me and my sweetie, hehe. The flipside of that argument is that if folks don’t know about this hidden gem may be Litibu Grill won’t get enough business and will go away and that would be the greatest disappointment! Hence this missive!

If like us, you stumbled upon Litibu Grill, it takes your breath away. Simple architecture on the outside and divine surprises beyond the wall; there really isn’t an inside, its all open air. Oceanfront, sunsets, an owner and servers who want you to have the best experience and food that is “To Live for!”

Thank you, Alfonso Estrada, for creating a setting where I feel like I’m visiting a friend in their gorgeous home. We commence the evening seaside and cozy sipping cocktails as the sunsets. Jumbo comfy sofas on the grass above the beach or loungers on the sand… it’s a tough decision for sure. Some of our guests spent the afternoon having drinks brought to them in the hammocks before their dinner was served… how delightful!

The food is simple in its delectable’ness. You choose seafood, meat or veggie dish and then one of their sauces to go with. The shrimp or clams with the ‘lemon, ginger, and butter sauce’ are always one of our choices. Between our guests and us we’ve now tasted everything on the menu and its all riquisimo (delicious)!

Alfonso was born and raised in Mexico City, moving to Puerto Vallarta in 2011 to open the Ocean Grill. He says “Puerto Vallarta is a great place to live; great weather, very safe, stunning beaches, great food, and great people.” The social part of the business is what Alfonso enjoys most. “I love serving people; creating beautiful spaces for people to enjoy and relax. He says a good year of business is more about having happy customers enjoying life. There is a lot going on in this business that people don´t see, most important is the consistency and quality of the food, dealing with customers, staff, etc. and keeping them all content.”

Inspired by the simple things in life, Alfonso enjoys water sports including spearfishing, paragliding, and paramotoring. When I asked his favorite causes he said, “I sponsor all kinds of causes usually to do with orphans and animals.” As far as changes to our area Alfonso believes “As long as there is a responsible plan, change is good. Development needs a sustainability plan. I want to maintain the charm of Vallarta and the Bay as a sustainable tourist destination. We need more eco-friendly developers.”

Alfonso’s favorite quote is on the wall:

Litibu Grill

He states ”I am very proud of both my restaurants.” Personally, I’m delighted that the Litibu Grill is so close, make a reservation or you won’t get in; open from Tuesday to Sunday 1:00 pm – 9:00 pm; Phone: 329 298 4166. It’s a few minutes away in Higuera Blanca.

Live, Love, Chill
