Had a great solo lunch here while I was in between work meetings in the area and loved it! I was sat and served immediately, and greeted with water, chips, some spicy salsa, and bean dip. I ordered and my food was out in maybe five minutes? I opted for the mix and match lunch special - a chicken enchilada, flauta, with rice and beans. It was all served piping hot! But it was delicious and I cleared my plate. Great service; they were all so attentive and kind. read more

The service, environment, and music were great. However, the food was far from even average. I ordered two beef tacos. They were served in stale hard taco shells that anyone could buy from a grocery store. My daughter ordered nachos and it was literally chips with microwave Colby cheese on it. My wife ordered Chile relleno, they had no flavor and covered with cheese to mask the lack of seasoning. The workers were very kind and everything else was great, but the food just felt like no one even tried. read more

Ixtapa Redmond Ridge has been our go-to Mexican restaurant in the Redmond area for more than 2 decades. It has a diverse menu and dependable high-quality food. The manager and serving staff are very nice, accessible, and always responsive to requests. They are great with substitutions and modifications. Their chips and salsa are excellent. For those who like heat, they are happy to kick it up: ask for the habanero salsa (off-menu) and extra Jalapenos. You can get a fairly quiet table, al fresca on the back patio, or table with multiple sports TVs. We like to watch Sounders matches there! read more

Go to stop when we are craving Mexican food. Casual dining quick and good service. They have vegetarian options and drinks are good. read more

A few days ago, on a roadtrip, filling our tank. Chevron said their bathroom is "out of order." I really needed to pee. Ran across the way, both eyes in one socket, to this restaurant and they gladly let me pee! It smelled so good in the restaurant that I ordered some tacos to go. Al pastor and carne asada. We went on our way, chowing down on the tacos, wishing we had purchased more! Thank you for the bathroom and the yummy food! read more

I was disappointed somewhat. The quality of the chicken was not very good. It tasted like packaged chicken. Not fresh chicken. It didn't taste right to me. The service was the silver lining. Direct and friendly. It wasn't really that busy. Not that many people there. Maybe just a few people. Kind of disappointed. Definitely recommend using fresh ingredients in the future. Thank you. read more

Food is good, staff are amazing, but everything is twice what you expect to pay for Mexican food in 2025. Also had $210 order for takeout with a $20 enter missing and nothing labeled. I am not a fan of this restaurant but my kids love their refried beans and my wife loves the margaritas :) read more

Ixtapa has always had great food! I love the chimichangas and the beans/rice. The people who work at Ixtapa are very friendly and have very good service. It's also very clean and they even have cute little bubble gum machines. read more

Ixtapa Redmond Ridge - College buddy reunion - Bars Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Very disappointed! I decided to go meet my fiancé and take her out for a nice quiet, romantic dinner and I picked this Mexican restaurant as it showed to be a family Mexican restaurant. It is very unpleasant when guys are served alcoholic beverages and they're yelling and swearing cuss words throughout, the time we're there since the Mariners game was being played. They were very intoxicated and should not have been drinking. It makes for a very unpleasant atmosphere to have dinner. I will not go back to this restaurant with that type of atmosphere. And if I compare the food to the other Mexican restaurants that I usually go to south end the food is disappointing. There may be something that's good there but the dishes we had were disappointing. I would rather have not even said anything or posted a review, but after we left, she explained to me how upset that made her and worried as to what might happen. She did not feel safe and that is not OK. Hopefully in the future a manager or owner will look at this and at least have some discussion with their employees Truly wish I could've had a better experience read more

For many years, Ixtapa in Duvall was our "go-to" Mexican restaurant and it went downhill after the pandemic, so this time we tried Ixtapa in Redmond Ridge. The food was good but they didn't refill our chips and salsa after we ran out. And I noticed that there was no lettuce on the platters, as there had been in the past. It seems like they are trying to cut corners and these things are "minor" but nevertheless noticeable. read more

Very good food with a nice view and nice taste. You can try here Chicken tacos Salsa and drinks And they also have special menu on weekends And rice and beans Service was good. read more

Fantastic service and the staff is very friendly, especially the manager. He greeted us and sat us at a table. Best fish taco's in the area, a little higher in price, but certainly worth it. Will definitely return. read more

Had a great dinner here last night - so good I forgot to take pictures of the food! I had the supreme quesadilla and it was delicious, and others had the Enchiladas Rancheras and another had a Quesabirra. Everyone devoured their meals - clean plate clubs. Chips and salsa served with refried beans that were warm and tasty, drinks were large and tasty too. Service was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant has a real family vibe. Prices are also family friendly. I will definitely come back soon - it was a really solid meal. read more

This is a wonderful family-style restaurant. Everything felt comforting, from the service to the seats to the food. Ordered chicken fajitas which came nice and sizzling. Taste was good, though about what you'd expect from any Mexican restaurant. They also offered cool specials at a decent price. Left feeling content in the stomach and the soul! read more

Ixtapa Redmond Ridge - Michelada! - Bars Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Service - Very friendly and attentive folks who work here. Food - Got the Chimichanga with ground beef. The ground beef filling was delicious and well-seasoned. The salsa which came with the chips was fresh. The re-fried beans were great. The red rice was alright. I've had better rice at other mexican restaurants. Not so good - I love a good Horchata in general. But sadly, enough the horchata at this place was mediocre at best. While the flavor was fine, it just felt heavily watered down. Like whoever is in-charge of making it really decided to be SUPER CHEAP! Imagine you have chocolate powder meant for 1 glass of milk, but you decide to break that powder among 2 glasses of milk. Not gonna taste so good right? Exactly! Horchata is supposed to be a relatively cheap drink to make with a high profit margin already. Why do you folks have to dilute the heck out of an already cheap drink? Another not so good - I went here during core lunch hours on a weekend, like at 1pm. They decide to run the loud vacuum cleaner at this time! And not only that, but run it close to all the tables where folks are eating! Seriously now?? I don't enjoy having dust in my food, with the awfully loud background noise. I felt pretty irritated during the long 10 minutes that it lasted. You guys need to plan better, wake up a bit early, come into the restaurant an hour or so earlier, and do the preparation and cleaning. Not DURING business hours. It's clear that the management is either clueless or very new at running a restaurant. I may come back to this place another time to try something if I feel like it. If it's a better experience with drinks and indoor env, I'll bump the review to 4 or 5, or if it's still the same, I'll rate it lower. read more

I would say this Mexican cuisine was no different than places like Azteca or La Fuente. The food was good (how different can one Mexican restaurant taste from another unless it's a different style) and prices were competitive. Service was friendly. I did like their appetizer salsa and freoles with chips. Very tasty. This restaurant was large and typical in decor as you might expect. read more

Let me start of by saying how nice the staff was when we came in. We sat down and we got drinks started. I got the mango margarita and let me tell you, the size is not for the faint of heart! It was really good, more alcohol heavy but hey, who am I to complain! We got our food which was presented on ginormous plates! The portions are great especially for the price that you are paying. They were super big that we didn't get to finish it we had to take them to go. I would definitely come back here, their free salsa and chips is enough to get me hooked! So if you are ever in the Redmond area and craving some Mexican food, I def recommend! read more

The employees are always friendly, attentive, and professional. The good is hot and very fresh.

Lovely dinner with my bestie. Good food and friendly service. Great chips and salsa and the complimentary bean dip is a great addition

I had the Friday special street tacos. With beef. They were good. Too greasy for my taste. I would like a kid's or elders menue

Most bland food I've ever had. Food was prepped fast. Too fast? Like microwave fast? Surely tastes like it.

I enjoyed the food here and would be happy to come back again. Your chips and dip come with free bean dip so that is definitely a plus. The green chicken dish was nice and tender. Chicken was moist and they weren't skimpy. As for the chocolate chicken I thought It was too heavy on the chocolate. Kinda of like a Hersey's taste. The prices were kinda crazy tho, $23 a plate and the happy hr large beer was $12. Idk what it is but mexican restaurants have been getting pretty pricey. read more

I ordered the taco salad and it had zero taste, it was just chicken and iceberg lettuce with a little dollop of sour cream and guacamole

The food was pretty good. The service was beyond terrible. 1) They seated us in the bar section and the bartender ended up being our server. He was rude..and hardly paid attention to us. Maybe because we don't drink? Or maybe because that's just his personality? 2) He gave us our chips and salsa before the meal (complimentary as usual for these types of places). We ended up using all the salsa (small cup) so we asked for another one. I ordered chicken fajitas for dinner , and ended up needing a couple of flour tortillas beyond what they gave me. Why do I mention this??? They ended up CHARGING US for the extra salsa and tortilla. I've never experienced this penny pinching before and we eat out often. Just comical. read more

The food is "ok". It's not great, but not terrible either. You'll note from the other reviews most of the high ratings come from people who are from the Pacific Northwest whereas those of us from California and Texas (me) rate the food as very average. I guess it depends on the quality you're used to. What was especially disappointing was the abysmal service. Our server barely said a single word to us. He took our order, brought our plates, never came back to check on us, never asked if wanted anything else (such as desert), and when he brought the bill and took the CC, never said a word. read more

Moved to rr area in August from Seattle and I was pleasantly surprised to find a good Mexican restaurant around here. Is a bit hidden from my perspective coming in from union hill; actually tried the restaurant over at qfc and thought I'd never find a Mexican restaurant I liked here. Ixtapa is fantastic, I highly recommend. I don't have children, so I prefer the bar section. The back patio is nice as well, pretty quiet despite being along the street plus the sunshades work well at keeping the temperature bearable on warm days. I have now become a regular as the staff know how I like my margarita, and they certainly treat regular customers well. (Granted, I never would have become a regular if they had not always been so good) read more

Amazing food with freshness at the forefront. Customer services is off the charts good! I drive from Duvall where the experience and food was awful at the town's Ixtapa. It's worth the drive to Redmond Ridge and I am a frequent customer now. read more

Finally checked out the neighborhood Mexican restaurant. The prices were a little steep compared to other Mexican restaurants we've been to. Most plates go for around $16-18, but the combination plates start at a little over $8 for one entree. Not bad. The salsa was very good, we ended up eating two baskets of chips and salsa. It was pretty slow in there but the entire waitstaff was very friendly. We had 3-4 different people helping us and checking in on us from time to time. Food came out and our plates were humongous! Usually, most Mexican restaurants give you a lot of food. This place gave us a truck load on a plate! There was so much food that I actually had to ask for a to-go-box. A rare thing for me. Oh, and the food was delicious! Couldn't have asked for anything better. I walked in craving Mexican food and was wheel barrowed out with a smile. Great thing about this place for me is that it takes 5 minutes to walk there. read more
