We were in Ixtapa for a 8 day vacation. On our 6th day we decided we wanted to stay close to the…read moreCondo we were staying at (Bayview Grand Marina). We had researched the area on our Mapquest and found El Galeon. We went to their website ( which brought us to YELP) where we found they were rated 4.7 out of 5 stars. (The lone "2/3" star came from someone who stated that she had lasagna which was cold but the service fixed the issue after what she felt was a long time) All the other ratings were 5/5 star with many mentions of Francisco who was their waiter.( more of Francisco later). The walk was a 6 min walk from our condo, so we decided we would make El Galeon our evening dining experience. We approached the entrance just off the Mariana where we were met by none other than Francisco himself. He greeted us with smiles and in a very polite and friendly voice he asked if we had made reservations ( we had not) he took us to a very nice table where my wife and I sat comfortably awaiting menus. I made mention to Francisco as to the reviews that brought us to El Galeon with many making mention specifically to him and his great service. He was surprised in hearing people had mentioned him directly and was appreciative.. he lived up to the reviews, the food was amazing (we had shrimp cocktail to start, margaritas and wine to quench our thirst and for the main entrees my wife had pomodoro and I had fettuccini Alfredo.) large portions served with garlic toast. DELICIOUS! Highly recommend!

Coming from Chicago We were all totally satisfied So Satisfied that we returned the next day. Service was fast and friendly. The place had a nice relaxed atmosphere. They have a wood fire oven that gives the pizza a delicious taste. The crust was toasted crispy. I highly recommend Emilio's

I've been visiting this area of Mexico for over 20 years, and Emilio's Pizza remains a favorite!…read moreOur family has a tradition of kicking off our trip with pizza on the first night, and more often than not, we find ourselves here. One of the best experiences is enjoying a sunset dinner on the second-floor balcony--sipping wine, sharing a delicious pizza, and having great conversation. A heads-up for first-time visitors: dining in Mexico isn't always about speedy service, so don't expect the fast-paced Western-style experience. That said, the servers are friendly, and the food is well worth the wait. The handmade pizzas are cooked to perfection in a beautiful brick-and-stone oven, and while the menu offers much more, the pizza is the real standout. If you'd rather grab pizza or pastries without dining in, head just across the intersection--look for the white building that resembles a church with a steeple - to the left of that white building you can find Emilios (the to go version). There, you can order the same delicious pizza with a shorter wait time. Highly recommend giving Emilio's a try!

The good: The stunning location and ambiance cannot be beat. The walk down through the beautiful Le…read moreCasa Que Canta was a treat as well. The service was excellent as well. It was very hot while we dined and there was no breeze. A fan would have been wonderful! The bad: You choose 2 or 3 courses for $1300 or $1500MXN. At this price, you expect really exceptional food. This just wasn't the case for us. I ordered the steak, which came with a green sauce and potatoes. The potatoes were delicious. The filet was more like a sirloin but was more tough than a sirloin. It was very disappointing, but more than that, when the server asked how everything was, he seemed as if he already knew the steak was tough. I ended up getting the coconut shrimp (4) instead. They were served on a bed of cooked and spiced apples along with a salad rolled up in thinly sliced jicama similar to a sushi roll. The second course I ordered was dessert. The pictures don't do the presentation justice because it is so dark, but the food is beautiful. Paying this much for coconut shrimp and dessert (basically a molten lava cake with vanilla ice cream) really left me feeling very disappointed. Would not recommend nor return.

In our observation if you know the chef you will have great service, but sadly with even with a reservation our experience was just okay. The problem was evident when they seated almost every table in the restaurant all at 6:30. There were at least 5 tables with 6-8. It took 30 minutes to take our order and our food was delivered to our table 2 hours and 6 minutes after we were seated. At the 90 minute mark they came by to apologize and say our food would arrive soon. 30 minutes later we were told five minutes and the first dishes arrived after 7 minutes and the last about 10 minutes after the committed 5 minutes. We understand the kitchen can get backed up. The biggest frustration is that the staff basically ignored the problem for 90 minutes leaving us alone for almost all of that time. The staff brought us more drinks when they told us it would be five more minutes. They also comped our table a free flan for dessert. But they seemed upset with us for not being overly gracious about the fact that we just wanted our food and we heard several apologies that were an apology followed by "but...". It was just clear that the tables who knew the chef and staff received a higher priority. I observed two tables being rushed out to make way for friends of the chef. There was another table that came in about 20 minutes after us that also had to wait close to 2 hours for their food. I share all this to say, if you plan to eat here, arrive 45+ minutes before sunset and be sure to connect with the staff. The curries (red and yellow) were very good with solid levels of spice and amazingly fresh veges. The chicken satay had a very good sauce. Great sizes for the portions of rice. The Pad Thai flavor was average - it lacked cilantro and was shy on peanuts and no lime. Flan was some of the best we ever had. They have a limited wine menu and several options for beer.
