Before we ate, we learned a little about the restaurant, the inspiration behind the menu, and the flavors in each dish. Fun fact: Ixchel is the Mayan Goddess, which adds even more meaning to the restaurant's name. Now, let's talk about the food! We enjoyed a tasting of several dishes, including tableside guacamole with chips and salsa, tortilla soup, handmade corn tortillas topped with different proteins, pibil (slow-roasted pork), a ceviche-style dish with shrimp and scallops, chicken mole, and sautéed shrimp with sweet potato. Every dish had its own unique flavor, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. My favorite of the night was definitely the handmade corn tortillas with the different proteins; they were so yummy! Of course, there was dessert! For dessert we had coconut flan and lemon cake, and both were the perfect sweet ending to the meal. Even though our dinner was outside, I did get a look inside the restaurant, and the interior is just as beautiful as the patio. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

Okay, to the food! Shrimp in garlic tapas was the biggest hit here. We poured that sauce over everything we could. The olives were a nice addition as well. The skirt steak had a nice grilled taste and seasoning to it, and the chimichurri was perfect. The steak flight is an excellent idea. We enjoyed the option to try smaller samples of different cuts. My only complaint here is that all the steaks come out on one curring board and we had very little guidance on which steak was which cut. It would be nice to know so we could order the one we preferred as an entree next time. We left satisfied and will be back. I highly recommend this place!

The place was very busy on a Friday evening, which I love for them. It took a while for someone to…read moretake drink orders but once they did it was pretty smooth sailing from there. We ordered appetizers the bacon dates which my husband will dream about until we get them again and the queso fundito which was basically melted cheese with chorizo on top. Or main meals were good but I was pretty full after appetizers so I only ate half the meal. A gentleman from the staff came over to asked if I had any issues with it or if I didn't like it. I explained I was full and wouldn't be going straight home to wrap it up to take with me. I appreciated that he asked. The place is cute, neon signs, bright colors and a decent amount of seating. There are high tops and low tables too and plenty of seats at the bar. We will be back.

Now initially what caught my eye was the birria pizza. Figured before committing to that let's try tacos. One of the best things of all, you can customize your tacos! So got birria with fresh jalapeño. That added a beautiful fresh kick to them. Devoured before thought of taking a picture. Excellent tacos. Coconut shrimp tacos. Mango salsa and other variety of flavors. This is a total tango on the tongue. The flavors dance wildly and in synch. Something I wasn't expecting. A beautiful combination. Plantains.... See how amazing they look in the picture? (That's after half of them were eaten). Well they taste even better. The sides of sauce you get are each their very own beautiful flavor profile and an experience. Highly recommended. Excellent first experience. Coming back for that birria pizza!

Sour cream, salsa verde, chipotle crema, and hot sauce. Each sauce was also delicious!! Definitely tasted homemade and not out of a jar. It paired well which the chips I was given.
