I enjoy eating at Mexican restaurants with my friends and since Vallarta is open 24 hours we went there late Saturday night. After we were seated, our waitress came by to take our order and seem distracted from the beginning with watching the t.v., she even brought us the wrong drinks. When taking our order, she would roll her eyes at us and make rude remarks on the food. Although the food was ok I don't think that we will go back again because of the impoliteness of the staff. Pros: The food is ok Cons: Waitstaff is not polite

I stopped with my family to for dinner and one of the managers (the one whose hair sticks up) and he was very disrespectful. I asked from a non smoking table because of my kids and we were also taken to a smoking section because the rest was full. He basically told us that we didn't have a choice and we either sat there or leave. So we left. We did not try the food so I can't say if it's good or not but I do not recommend anyone going. Cons: unfriendly staff

I went in to have dinner with my boyfriend and was not even welcome nor seated by the wait staff until about 10 minutes afterwards. When they finally seated us they took us to the smoking section without asking if we wanted to sit there. I told the lady that we could wait a while longer until there was a table in the non-smoking section. She left and came back with the manager who basically told us to either sit there in the smoking section or leave. The manager was very rude and disrespectful. Pros: Open 24 hours Cons: Most servers are rude and disrespectful. It takes a long time for the food to come out.

I happened in to Vallarta one day a couple of months ago for lunch, and have been going back time and again for both lunch and dinner. The authenticity of the cuisine really shines through, and the everything I have had so far explodes with freshness. This place, obviously, is a casual dining experience, but you will be surprised by the breadth and depth of the menu - which includes an extensive seafood selection. Apart for the "huge tacos", I have become slightly addicted the the ceviche which is utterly fantastic. The service is wonderful and the prices are exceptionally fare - especially given the amount you are served. When you are craving Mexican - or wanting a new place to try - definitely go to Vallarta. It is in an outparcel to the right of the Food Lion in that shopping center. There is also an entrance into their parking lot directly off the Capital Blvd southbound lane. It is somewhat garishly decorated (inside and out) with bright colors, so you can't miss it. Pros: Fresh and wonderfully delicious. Creative menu. Well-mannered and attentive waitstaff. Casual environment. Cons: None
