Short Story: another great meal and wonderful dining experience…read more Long winded version. We arrived around 4:30 or 5:00 on a Thursday in October. A few tables were occupied (including my favorite seat by the street). We were seated swiftly and warmly welcomed by both Cesar and Jose Manuel. Water was served almost instantly and we were attended to with conversation, grace and warm smiles throughout the evening. We loved charcuterie boards in the US and had found a great place near our home in Temecula, CA. When the house was up for sale, we'd often go there to pass the hours during open houses and showings and found that we could linger over a nice charcuterie board for an hour. We ordered the charcuterie board at Alex's and did linger over it for close to an hour, chatting and sipping wine (well, Gary had a martini). The meats and cheeses on the board were tasty and of good quality, but overall, I think this dish could use a little revamping. Maybe a nice bit of spicy fig jam, a few nuts, a stinky cheese, maybe a few quarters of fresh fig with some drizzle of sauce...I know TIM (this is Mexico) and I'm applying my tastes from NOB (North of Border) here, but it is my palette after all. They brought the standard bread basket (half toasted, half fresh...all fresh baked bread) with a small tomato/onion/herb salsa to create your own bruschetta knock-off. We used that bread to accompany the charcuterie selections. We shared a Caesar salad; Alex's always delivers this dish well. The portion size may have gone down a little, and I'm not saying that's a bad thing, just an observation. Their Caesar dressing is excellent! I ordered the octopus as my entrée. It was served with a pesto sauce and also with some heavenly guacamole. The octopus was perfectly prepared! I couldn't pick out the marinade or rub by taste, but the octopus had a mild flavor and just a tiny bit of char from those few moments on the grill. I had enough leftover for a light lunch the next day (it heated up nicely in the oven and remained the perfect texture). Texture is really important with octopus; this was tender (not the least bit chewy or mushy), so I know it was treated well prior to and during the cooking process. YUM! Since octopus has a mild flavor, the accompanying sauces and garnish are especially important. I really liked the mixture with the pesto and guacamole and would never have even thought to pair guacamole with octopus served this way. Brilliant menu item. Gary ordered the pasta with meatballs. He was not the least bit disappointed. The meatballs were good, and the pasta was perfectly prepared. The sauce with this dish is a concentrated tomato sauce. I LOVE tomatoes, so when I tasted this, it really appealed to me. Seasonings were spot on. We skipped dessert this time, but the Gorgonzola ice cream is a must try! We had it once before and it was fantastic. They have some new menu items (pictured in the photos). These include several additional tortellinis. They were completely out of the duck confit because it has been such a hit. Also a new ribeye steak on the menu. If you get a chance to enjoy a meal at Alex's, I'm pretty sure you are going to love it. It may be a little pricier than some other places, but we love the experience so much and the quality of the food is so good, that we feel the price is a great value. Great job, Cesar, Jose Manuel and LuLu. Please pass along our appreciation to your great chefs in the kitchen!

From Marlin tacos to one of the best brick over pizza you will find in the area. We ordered the Marlin Taco and it was filled with enough Marlin for two, a couple of Pulpo(squid) tacos deep fried, and just cooked. The fried had a yummy cheese base and the cooked was just steamed pulpo in a single standard size tortilla. The pizza was so delicious. We ordered the pepperoni/jalapeño with roasted garlic. This is the best brick oven pizza I've had in a long time. We washed it down with a king size shot of Don Julio and a couple of fresh jamica waters! That topped it off the jamica water was fresh and not overly sweetened. This place is a special find. I would suggest you stop in and verify!

If you know me you will know this is one of my ultimate favorite desserts. Yup, I even have it listed in my Yelp profile. Cross check if you must. Most recently, I have discovered their daily fresh handmade pasta and their tagliatelle is perfectly al dente and savory. Last time I had fresh pasta was at an exclusive lunch- only place in Seattle, Washington that had a line wrapped around the block during breakfast hours. Who got time for dat? Don't y'all work? Anyhoo, this place is completely legit, with ample parking and no waiting. It's reflective of some amazing cuisine here in Chapala. Come try it out.What I like about the pasta sauce, whether it's tomato based or cream, is that it's never too salty. It's just right. Whoever they have in the kitchen is doing an amazing job. Sit inside for romantic dinner or outside on the patio garden area and it's open air and laid back. You may be visited by a couple of their cats who room the property but they are gentle and adorable. Service is attentive, everything is clean, oh and in the bathroom, feel free to bring A guest since there is chair and table located inside the bathroom room with the toilet. It's that big! If this was New York City, the bathroom would be the entire size of the restaurant. I'm not kidding. I know you're curious, so come and check it out and definitely try the fresh pasta and get the panna cotta. Oh and the Merlot ain't bad neither.

The only reason why I'm giving four stars instead of five is because of the road noise from the cars and trucks passing by. But the view of the lake and mountains are beautiful and the patio is comfortable and spacious. The limonada is fresh and tart; I recommend it with mineral water and slightly sweet. To order this in Spanish just say, "limonada con agua mineral con poco jarabe". There are two dishes that I particularly enjoyed here. They are: one. There are two dishes that I particularly enjoy here. 1. Arrachera con papa y verduras al vapor: skirt steak with baked potato and steamed veggies. It's flavorful and delicious. The potato may be smaller than you expect, but it's all yum when JT comes to the table. 2. Pizza Charly: wood fired relatively thin crust pizza with sausage, pepperoni and ham. Perfect sauce and crispy crunch. For dessert, don't forget the strawberry flambé nestled under vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate sauce and nuts. The only recommendation is for them to bring you a bigger spoon because your table mates will devour it before you can say: "Que te pasa, guey!" Translation: "dude, what is wrong with you!" #wtf I'm a big fan of this spot, and if you get a hug from a little girl who's about that high, don't be alarmed. That's just Charlotte, she is the daughter of which the restaurant is so named.
