Description

A hidden gem at the entrance of Sayulita, serving creative Mexican flavours, tasting bites, and drinks to go, on your way in and out of town.

We’re a small, warm, chef-driven spot where every dish is inspired by the flavours México is known for — but prepared with creativity, technique, and heart.
Our menu changes with the seasons and with what inspires us: local ingredients, regional classics, and the memories and stories behind Canadian and Mexican food and sharing meals together.

Nothing here is bland, rushed, or tourist-washed. We cook in the moment using fresh quality ingredients and care, with real flavour, and a welcoming, friendly vibe.

If you love discovering hidden gems, cocinas de autor, and creative takes on Mexican classics, you’ll feel at home here.

We where Mexico is tasted and celebrated in creative, delicious ways.

Sayulita’s flavour-forward tasting café.

Absolute Gem!
I read an article and knew that I had to visit this place for their shrimp tacos. When I showed up, Alberto was just closing up, but he reopened for me. The shrimp tacos were the best I’ve had since arriving in Sayulita! Alberto was so friendly, I enjoyed our conversation. He is incredibly grateful and takes great pride in the food and drinks he serves. (Great margaritas too, spicy and classic!) I will most definitely be back before the end of my trip for more great food, drinks, conversation, and to meet his fiancé who I spoke to over FaceTime while I was there while she visited her home in Canada where I am also from! See you soon Black Buddah!

Great Lunch!
My wife and I went to Black Buddha for lunch. She got the spicy Shrimp cocktail and I got the pork sandwich. Both were fantastic. The owners are very nice and provide excellent service as well.

Highly recommended!
I was a little eager and visited as soon as I heard about them opening. They had only been open a few hours and it was perfect! The owners were truly lovely and accommodating! I felt at home, the music so good it kept us there for over an hour! As did the enjoyable conversation! I plan to make my way through the menu!

The menu is a homage to the owners union, the blending of cultures and worlds, Mexican and Canadian, both places that have my heart!

For fellow Canadians they have poutine!! And the owner being Canadian you know she won't miss a beat with this dish!! So give it a go!
Fellow pool players and karaoke singers, my heart was happy here so yours will be as well!

I will be back and recommending here to everyone!

From one Canadian to another thank you for bringing a little bit of home to this beautiful little town!
