Restaurant Bar Manix

Delicious 😋 Always quality food. Service great and such mice people who like their job. Hector came around to meet each table after he helped serve. The restaurant will move just a few blocks west on the carreterra in the future. Good news!

Our first meal in Ajijic, Mexico, and it was muy delicioso! We both ordered seafood linguini and were pleasantly surprised to discover it also came with carrot soup, which we’d never had…it was amazing…and some really good sour dough bread, and a dessert we’d never heard of. All was excellent! Our server, Larry, was very nice and efficient and we enjoyed visiting with him. It was a most relaxing meal after flying all day.

This place seemed funky with the seemingly part Italian, part Mexican menu, so we weren't sure what to expect. The food was DELICIOUS. stuffed mushroom appetizers and cheesy toast with salsa/guac were a great start. The toast was like a Mexican bruschetta, which may sound weird, but again, so good. The wine pours are HEAVY. Dinner was a veal + fettuccini Alfredo and shrimp cooked in garlic butter with a giant potato, corn bread (but cake like, not dry) and a salad. Go on a week night to get a table easily! Staff was very attentive.

Wow, what an experience! We thought there might be live music but there was the most lively mariachi band I've ever seen, between them and the manager, it was an unforgettable experience. And that just set the tone for everything else. All of us thought our dishes were the best one of those we'd had, not just in Ajijic but period. The fish florentine was fantastic, with spinach, baked potatoes, vegetables and a dessert like corn souffle. The vegetable lasagna came with a delicious salad, and was definitely one of the best lasagnas I've had. The margaritas were good, the bloody mary better, and the tequila that was freely flowing certainly didn't hurt. The desserts (ice cream with chocolate covered strawberries) was also delicious.

Lovely history to the family and home, now the restaurant. They had an AMAZING event for MX Independence Day! Today I had fish and chips for lunch... Very nice food and professional service.
