In the main dining room of the former Martini's Bar and Grille, the walls shimmer with tiny mirrors, and the lush carpet is bouncy underneath your boots or stilettos. But the showpiece of Martinis, of course, is the grand piano. Every night from 7-10PM, the keys are tickled by talented professionals. Melodies are widely varied, depending on the performer's partiality, and can range from jazz to showtunes. If they're just not playing your song, Martinis also features a separate smoking patio overlooking Fourth Avenue, complete with a second, fully-stocked bar.
The menu is exotic, but expertly rendered, offering everything from monkfish to escargot: surf and turf like you've never seen before. Appropriately, the bar offers a wide variety of tasty martinis, from the Espresso to the Chocolate Covered Cherry to the tangy Key West. For the strong-livered, the $45 Ophelia Later (get it?) Martini, named after a local female impersonator, just might set the room spinning.
But be wary: Such luscious drinks, opulent surrounding and high-class companionship will likely loosen your voice box, and you may soon find yourself singing along to Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Dale Dubach is so pretty, he should have been Prom Queen
JaliscoJimmy - 06/12/2008Martini's at MA4 are as good as any I've ever had, and I've had 'em all over the world, honey. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, gorgeous, and gorgeous. When it counts...I come here.

Puerto Vallarta, MXAdd CommentThe perfect place!
JLCareySD - 05/13/2008I've been to MANY of the restaurants and bars around town and just keep coming back to Martinis Above Fourth. The drinks compare to none in variety, size, and flavors. There's is a martini for everyone and anyone here. Great value for the dollar compare to the rest. The atmosphere is awesome! A great mix of guys with a nice mix of entertainment. It's a true lounge experience where you can talk with your friends or get to know new ones. The dinners are great and offer a variety of choices from fish to steak. I always have a favorite! You've GOT to try the swordfish. Don't miss out on this Hillcrest gem. You'll keep coming back for more.
best food and drinks in town!!

Great Times Served Up!
dudiverj - 01/08/2007Amazing drinks, amazing food and new martinis all the time! Such a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and fun entertainment (WE LOVE VINTAGE VEGAS). The best first stop of the night that can turn into your night when you try to sample every one of their 60 specialty martinis!
Bottoms up!
sideswipeca - 01/08/2007Wow, seriously wow. There isn't another bar like this in the area. Cool chill music, you can talk with your friends and hang out and the drinks! Oh man, seriously, you don't need more than two to get you through the rest of the night. This is the perfect first stop for a night out on the town!

cpminsd - 01/08/2007...you're going to be a late for the meeting. What do a friendly, outgoing staff, superb dinner menu, funky & creative live music, and a martini list that rivals the Library of Congress make? A GREAT time @MAF in Hillcrest. You've gotta try the pearl necklace . I've been going for years and each time it gets better 'n 'better. AND I've got the liver transplant to show for it! Babette's Bingo Brunch, which shows once a month, is a hoot!
terrible

Excellent Food!!!!!
lysastein - 05/20/2004Martini's is one of the most friendly places in hillcrest. Being a regular at martini's is like having an extended family. The food is fabulous and the martini's are always a thirst quencher since they are 9oz martinis.
