MASSIVE UPGRADE from the previous establishment. The interior is much nicer, polite staff, and most notably the food fantastic. I live just down the road and was so sad the previous establishment was terrible, but now I can just get some delicious tamales to go. Just what I wanted when I saw a Mexican restaurant so near by. And if I didn't live so close, I would definitely make the drive as this is some of the best Mexican cuisine I've had since I moved to MA a few years ago

Tacos were good but the rest was honestly bad, service was also good, doesn’t feel or look Mexican, price is pretty high for a plate that brings half of what you think you would get, probably won’t be coming back here for the food

I have recently dined in this restaurant and honestly the environment of this place is horrible!! The manager, Saul, is extremely rude, he always has an attitude, and I've noticed he treats the staff without any sort of respect. He doesn’t check up on his tables, but I see him sitting down on his telephone constantly. This place is very unhygienic, the silverware does not seem to be cleaned properly, the table had left over rice and the cups seemed dirty. This place would benefit from a change in management.

Love Ixtapa. It's our go-to Mexican restaurant. Chips and salsa are quick and excellent, margaritas are great, service is fast and efficient and burritos are big and delicious.

Will NEVER go back to Groton location again. If I had not known I had ordered Chicken Stir-Fry, I would have thought it was just hard, dry, tasteless batter. The chicken was nonexistent, as was the mushrooms & broccoli. A 1 star rating is too high for this place. Will not be back! Not worth the money.

Family members have gone here for years. This review is of tonight's take out order. The very worst nachos supreme we've ever had. Chile rellenos were greasy glops served alongside what must have been canned bland refried beans, flavorless rice, and the highligt, a slice of what looked like a good ripe tomato. That slice of tomato is probably the only fresh ingredient used in the entire meal. The only good thing I can say is the portions they gave us were very small. And even with that we didn't finish. In fairness, my kids seemed to like the burrito verde. Ordered 2 extra chips and salsas $10 each for a handful of not better than store bought chips and the wrong salsa. I love supporting local businesses but I'm not going to drop another dime here.

THE WORST TAKEOUT IVE EVER HAD. My chimichanga was the size of a tortilIa chip. I wish I could post a picture it's an actual joke. It was nasty and had nothing in it but potatoes! Potatoes werent even listed as an ingrediant under the meal description. I emailed them to resolve the issue but they never replied so all I can say is very gross, very rude, DIRTY and just absolute theft. The other meal was a burrito, it was filled with peas and carrots, again not supposed to be in there! There are a ton of bad reviews, listen to their warnings. I've also dined in here and it was mediocre at best. I hope this place gets shut down as soon as possible, Groton deserves better! I hope the manager is reading this, I waited a week for you to respond to me, I was kind but now I will not be. I will tell everyone I know to leave a 1 star review until you're brought down from 4 stars to 3! Go eat some road kill, it will taste better than this place.

My husband and I order food at Ixtapa one a week. Always fresh food, generous amount and excellent flavors. Excellent staff! I recommend this restaurant to everyone.

I seriously wonder how this place get an average of 4+ star review !Ambiance: dark, smelly.Food: average but pricy compared to its quality.Drink: below average compared to other Mexican restaurants around.Service: Poor and TERRIBLE !! First, they took us to a table where the couch seat was teared up, broken. It was not the only place available. So, I wonder why they offered us this table.Secondly, they were so slow to serve our table compared to other tables, where people came after us. Thirdly, and most importantly they never asked us whether everything was good or we need anything until the bill time came. We noticed that they were different in other tables. I would call it a discrimination. Finally, they served us in a plate that was cracked. We love Mexican food in general. However, this was the Worst Mexican food experience ever for us !We will surely not come back here again.
My wife and I enjoyed a great night out. The staff was friendly and efficient and the prices were reasonable. The dinner was very tasty.Thank you!

We always enjoy dinner at Ixtapa. Friendly wait staff, food is brought out very quickly, good drinks. Outdoor seating here is my family's favorite.

This is a locals spot, with authentic and delicious food. The tortilla chips are made fresh with the best tasting salsa in Massachusetts! Their food is excellent and priced right. The classic Mexican decor gives the restaurant authenticity with a chill vibe for date night.

Love Ixtapas, but it’s difficult ordering takeout with them. They often forget sides you’ve asked for, and recently only got a small amount of toppings with the fajitas. Felt like they were skimping more than normal, I had even asked for a side of cheese extra since I like a lot of cheese and the amount they give usually isn’t enough, but this was a super small amount especially given the cost. Usually this container is pretty full with guac, sour cream and cheese.Haven’t been here in over a year, but recently moved back to the area and was excited. But kinda let down.

I loved this place until this past weekend. The first thing I want to strongLy stress is that you review your bill before paying it. We were over charged by 3 dollars for my meal and by 4 dollars for the 2nd meal. Also, charged more for draft beer than should've been. When I asked to see the menu and showed him the correct prices he would not abide by them. Instead, took 25% off of one meal that was already overpriced. Did not correct price of draft although he acknowledged it was his mistake. It is clear that they are scamming people. Suggest you read lesser rated reviews concerning people being cheated. Please look at your bill before paying it. I believe it was the manager who waited on us.
