If you go to Puerto Vallarta and you didn't try El Tacón de Marlin then you never tried the taste of Vallarta, one of the best known places in Vallarta for its taste burritos, price and popularity are unthinkable. Tacon de Marlin is a fish burrito and taco place that will leave you salivating the next time you remember their food. This place is known internationally thanks to the fact that it is in front of the Vallarta International Airport, it is known that many plane pilots and crew members place orders from the plane before landing because of how busy it tends to be on weekends. My best recommendation is to try Marlin fish, it's a fish that is not available in places like US and Canada.
