Ixtapa is a local Mexican restaurant that we have driven by countless times, tonight she suggested that we stopped by. As you walk in you are greeted by a very friendly staff, we had a large party and they were so accommodating with the size of our party, we were seated quickly and immediate another very friendly staff member took our drink orders and brought each table salsa and chips. Everyone that we encountered was very friendly, this provided a very welcoming atmosphere, very much what you would find in a local family run establishment. They have a very extensive menu, be prepared and take your time, so many choices. I only captured half of the pages in my photos, the menu is huge. We ordered the Chile Verde pork, with rice and beans, a huge portion of food, my father in-law loved it, we also ordered the Cheese Enchilada and Chile Relleno with rice and beans combo, again a hug portion my son cleared his plate, I ordered a combo as well, The Luis Special, huge portion of rice, beans, Carne Asada, Shrimp served with a spicy dipping oil and guacamole, I had most of it, to large of a plate for one serving, it was delicious and I highly recommend it. Over all a great local family run Mexican Restaurant. We were all very impressed and very full. More importantly my Mother in-law had a great time enjoying some time with her friends and family.

At noon then, I thought an adult coffee might be nice during the "enrichment" presentation. And so a vacation tradition was born. At Ixtapas, they have a nice list of adult coffees. This holiday season I decided to try all of them- not all at once. A girl's gotta have goals, right? I thought I'd share my results so far. Two weeks ago I tried the Cafe De Amor- 10/10- I'd order again. Last week, the Spanish coffee- a little sweet for me, nonetheless, a pleasant afternoon! Today, I tried the Ixtapa coffee- 10/10 and perfect if you are fighting off a cold- you feel it going down in not an unpleasant way. So far the Cafe De Amor is my favorite! I have 3 more to try. I do accompany it with a light lunch, and take leftovers home. I love their quesadillas- and their Guacamole. Fabulous flavors! So if you need a staycation cruise experience, consider an adult coffee and appetizer for lunch at Ixtapas!

A Local Gem: Nuestro Sabor Review I cannot say enough good…read morethings about the transformation of this location. Seeing Nuestro Sabor move into the old Chinese restaurant building was a welcome change for the neighborhood. They have truly revitalized the space at 203 Smith St, turning it into a vibrant spot that feels fresh and welcoming from the moment you walk through the door. Starting things off with the chips and salsa is an absolute must. While it is important to note that they cost $5.00 after the first serving, the quality makes it well worth the price. The chips are perfectly crisp, and the salsa has that authentic, homemade flavor that sets the tone for the rest of the meal. If you like a bit of a kick, you have to try their hot sauce. It is genuinely delicious and packed with a complex heat that enhances everything it touches. It isn't just about the spice; the flavor profile is deep and adds a perfect layer of zing to the entire dining experience. For my main course, I went with the chimichanga, and it did not disappoint. The exterior was fried to a perfect golden-brown crunch, while the inside remained incredibly flavorful and juicy. It's clear they take pride in the preparation of their signature dishes, as every bite was as good as the first. Of course, no Mexican meal is complete without the classics. The tacos were fresh and seasoned to perfection, capturing that traditional taste I always look for. Paired with their side of rice and beans, it was a hearty and deeply satisfying combination that felt like a true home-cooked meal. Mandi decided to try the loaded fries, and they were a total showstopper. They were piled high with toppings, creating a decadent and savory mix of textures. It's the kind of comfort food that you find yourself thinking about long after the meal is over. The service was another highlight of our visit. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. It's clear they care about their customers and want to ensure everyone has an amazing 5-star experience. The atmosphere is just right for a casual lunch or a fun dinner out. Even though the building has a history as a different style of restaurant, the team at Nuestro Sabor has made it entirely their own. It feels bright, clean, and full of energy. Overall, the food here is simply delicious. From the perfectly seasoned meats to the fresh sides, every element of our order felt high-quality and carefully prepared. It is wonderful to have such a reliable and tasty option for Mexican cuisine in the area. I highly recommend stopping by and giving them a try if you haven't already. Whether you're coming for a full spread of tacos and chimis or just want to dive into those loaded fries, you're in for a treat. This is definitely our new go-to spot!

If you can't handle takeout and in-house dining, don't do both. Aside from stale chips and salsa that was reminiscent of V8 if you strained it, no clue what the food is like.
