And what about Vista Grill? Wasn't that Sr. Chico's?

Yes, many years ago Chico, Alberto's eldest brother built Sr. Chico's on the hill overlooking the bay. This is the same Chico Perez who created Chico's Paradise located on the drive south past Boca de Tomatlan. A true pioneer in the field of tourism and restaurants, Chico built, owned and operated Sr. Chico's which was known for the view and Vallarta spectacular table side cookery featuring Steak Diane, Bananas Flambe  and specialty coffees....which still entertain with fire and flash under the same roof.  In 2004 a facelift and update was conducted by Alberto Perez, to bring an upscale, jazzy ambiance and an elevated cuisine to match the fabulous view of the bay. Many a romance has been ignited or celebrated at one of the terrace tables which overlook the famous cathedral of Guadalupe, the sunsets over the Banderas Bay and the nightly fireworks show which dazzles from the Marigalante Pirate ship. The menu is a collection of the best recipes from many guest chefs who have left their mark through the Gourmet Festival and has earned many awards including the coveted 5 Star Diamond ranking. Live music nightly creates a mood of romance and jazz, and we know that Chico would have been proud of his little brother and all he has done to carry on the tradition of excellence. Salud!
