We felt that The Shrimp Factory was OK but not as good as The Blue Shrimp. Portions were good size but I don't belive that overall taste and and prensentation were as good as Blue Shrimp. The Blue Shrimp is a bit more expensive.

I went to the Blue Srimp last year and yes the food was good but was a little over priced. Just in case you decide to go to either the Shrimp Factory or the Blue Shrimp go to www.ofertasvallarta.com and there are coupons you can print off. The Shrimp Factory one is for 20% off food and drinks and you also get complimentary fried ice-cream yum yum my fav. The Blue Shrimp one was for 15% off. I will definetly be going to the Shrimp Factory when I am there in April just for the fried ice-cream.

Lobster isn't always very good in PV. It's usually small, not as flavorful as stuff you might be used to from Maine or PEI, and doesn't always have a lot of meat. And it's often very expensive in Vallarta.

Shrimp, octopus, and various types of fish however are all plentiful and delicious in PV, and can usually be found quite reasonably priced. Myself, I bypass the Blue Shrimp in favour of places like Mariscos Polo - the Wiri Shrimp with peach sauce is to die for.
