Ixtapa Mexican Restaurant

-Cold tortillas served w/ fajitas that hardly had any meat, what meat was on the plate looked dehydrated (over cooked?) My husband picked at his plate but didn’t eat much. -We received 3 of 4 meals ordered so our son had to wait 15 min after we got our entrees to get his, there was no explanation or apology given. -Our waitress wasn’t friendly when asking about menu items, I was ordering something I wasn’t familiar with and inquired if it came with chicken, she nodded then said under her breath, “it’s always chicken.” -No fault of the restaurant but the couple seated right behind us was arguing, complaining about prices and adding up how much they had already spent when considering ordering another beer, and the man (50’s) was talking about fighting someone. There was only 1 other group in the restaurant (not busy!) spacing the tables out would have been nice especially so we didn’t have to listen to all of that while eating lunch with our children. The prices definitely don’t reflect quality or service. I’ve dined at other Ixtapa restaurants with far better experiences. I still tipped the waitress 15% as I know times have been tough and the table behind us probably tipped next to nothing. Having previously been in the service industry for 15+ years, a smile and genuinely caring about your guests experience goes a long way! We will not give it another chance as it’s not worth the 45 min drive to find out if they were having an off day.

Just stopped for lunch after coming from Newport with our cousins. The wife loves Mexican Food, so we pulled in to Ixtapa. The restaurant was very bright with an immediate pleasant atmosphere. The staff were friendly and very efficient. The food was excellent. It was brought to the table piping hot. Will certainly come here again. Muchas Gracias Amigos :-)
