Food was quite good but the price on the bill was different from what was shown on the menu.

Been going here for a little bit and really enjoy the food. My Mom loves their food and took her for her birthday tonight. They were busy but still had great service and delicious food! One of the best in the area.

They don't have hot sauce. Only very mild with a decent flavor. Food was prepared for Oregonian taste buds. I ate at other Ixtapa Mexican Restaurants in Dallas OR, Florence, were some of the better ones.

This restaurant is a favorite for my family. The staff had become like family to my elderly parents and we make a point to have family dinners there when we are in town to visit... As a vegan, I am happy that the menu includes options I can enjoy too... visit this place, they are awesome!!!
Vegetarian options: I had spinach chimichangas... super delicious ?
A great place for a perfect authentic mexican meal. Great people and the best spicy Diablo around.

One of the worst Mexican restaurants I have ever been to. Don’t go! Awful food, terrible wait staff and cook, not authentic Mexican food. So disappointed!!!!!
It’s Me
I was informed by a local that their service is "lousy". I wanted to really find out for myself because I didn't believe it. I don't ever fall for "ph maybe it's my skin color". Well, I can't say for certain what it is, whether it's small tips or skin color, but I can say for certain that compared to what I need and compared to every restaurant I have ever been to: the service here is the worst! There is no service worse than at Ixtapa in Philomath. You never have enough time to ask for a second napkin before they interrupt and run away and even if you are able to ask, you won't get that napkin for minutes to ten minutes or more! Same goes for anything: they'd rather streamline their trips to and from the kitchen so if you ask for a second salsa, you'll be done or almost done with your only salsa before they even consider bringing you another, even if you ask before you touch the salsa! I have been to countless places that don't hesitate to make these small requests a serious priority. But here at Ixtapa, you are waiting forever on everything. They go as far as trying to delay as much as possible before even asking and handing you a bill. I waited 20 minutes one day just for the server to NOTICE me, and then it took however much longer just to ask, and then longer to get me the bill! Why are these people so clumsy, especially when it's not even busy? They'd rather chit chat and gossip and tell the new employees to just smile and be friendly, but you know there is something wrong and biased when the staff are complacent and careless at everything! The food is absolutely incredible. There is seemingly no grease, and it all tastes better than some Mexican restaurants I've been to, but the service is beyond horrendous! This is so disgraceful, you even see individuals at the door meandering their way into the restaurant because the staff are too busy talking to each other or trying to ignore their guests. Had I not been told this service was awful, I would have been much more upset! I came into this with low expectations, and came out having experienced the worst restaurant crew of all the restaurants I have ever been to. I don't even see the waiters washing their hands after they've handled the food other people have consumed, before they come back and hand you more food or even takeout boxes. The lack of attention to detail here is astounding, and makes this place a one-time stop and shop you'll never return to. Taste and enjoy the amazing food, but don't come back if you want incompetent servers more invested in unimportant matters than bringing you what should have already been made available! One napkin is not enough, the salsa serving size is too small (need two sizes), and while the food comes out very fast on slow days, I would never want to visit this place if there was more than a handful of couples or individuals. I have come in every time there were few people. Even when it's just me and a couple others, the service is just as slow and agonizing. I don't even understand why these people work here if they don't care to be passionate about their work. I would fire this restaurant crew in an instant if I had the choice. Not worth it here. Go elsewhere and have good service where they don't waste your time! Furthermore, you won't be nearly as thirsty elsewhere as this food is very salt-heavy.

Delicious food and wonderful atmosphere! The staff and service is exceptional and definitely is a huge part of what brings us back every time. My husband and I come on our own and love to come with others as well. The horchata is also my favorite!!
