Upon walking in I was sure I had entered a little bistro on a small street in Paris with quaint French jazz playing taking me back to the 1940s (or so it seemed, as that was long before my time). Every course I has was better than the next. I couldn't believe how flavorful the food was, and how high quality the ingredients and for such reasonable prices. Even the house wine (a French Cabernet Sauvignon) was so yummy. The service was also impeccable. I really felt like I'd hit the lottery on this find, highly recommend.

We loved the hospitality and the service here. The manager made sure we got a seat even though we were half an hour late and the main dishes were pretty good French dishes for a place in puerto Vallarta. We got the coq au vin and the boeuf de bourgignon as well as the chocolate lava cake in the end which was delicious and rich. It is also located in a really cute part of the city right before the main cathedral

Discovered this gem of a French restaurant in Puerto Vallarta (by the Malecon next to the suspended yellow umbrellas), and everything here was fantastic! The food, the location, the ambience, the service - first rate. We had the Portobello Farcis, Pates a la Carbonara, and the Coq au Vin, and would recommend them all, with the Farcis and Carbonara being my personal favorites. The portions are great and the quality is excellent. For dessert, would definitely recommend the Chocolate Fondant. If you're in Puerto Vallarta and looking for a great dining experience without breaking the bank, definitely check out La Cigale!

We stopped for cocktails. They costume made an old fashion with a little absinthe for us and it was delicious. High quality and very friendly service. We will return for dinner.

Excellent experience. I had not been to this restaurant in more than five years. I'm not really sure why. But I was glad when a friend suggested we go there. Service was very good - - not obtrusive, but there when needed. The bread was crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The tuna tartare was a very generous portion (plenty for two people) and paired nicely with the mango and avocado. The boeuf bourguignon was tender and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. We opted to skip dessert, but the choices looked delicious. I will go back and I won't wait five years!!

Pretty bistro with lovely outdoor terrace one block above the Guadalupe church. Indifferent service, especially since only 4 tables were occupied. Fair food, wine. Escargot was nice. Beef Bourgignon was good with lots of Fusilli pasta. My Arrechara ribeye was cooked to order but and nicely seasoned, frites were good but salad was weak. We ordered the coffee and 4 dessert samples to try - pastries were stale. Too many other choices in PV to return.
