I was visiting my boyfriend who lives in Nampa, Idaho and he wanted to take me out to Dinner.. he said Chapala's is one of the best restaurants he has found since he moved to the area a couple years ago and I LOVE Mexican food so naturally he decided to take me here.
We were seated right away, service was very friendly and attentive and the restaurant was clean and had an overall nice ambiance. The chips and salsa were good. I had a couple blackberry flavored margaritas and they were delicious! Tasted just like blackberry and were the perfect combination of sweet and strong. I believe the drink my boyfriend got was the Cadillac which he liked, I had a little sip of his and it was good but much stronger than my margarita.
A lot of items on the menu looked great but ultimately I went with the sunrise enchiladas which are your choice of enchiladas topped with a couple eggs because I love eggs, I never get sick of them and could eat them different ways multiple times a day... much like I did this day as he made me eggs for breakfast too! I got my enchiladas with just cheese and onions topped with the eggs and they were very good as well as the refried beans ! The rice wasn't anything special in my opinion but my boyfriend really loves their rice... it's just too dry for my taste. He likes to get their steak burrito for his entree which is big and looks appealing as well.
All in all, it's a great restaurant.. I wouldn't say it's higher quality than say Azteca's which is a Mexican restaurant local to me in Washington state but I'd say it's on that same level. I highly recommend the flavored margaritas and enchiladas here - the enchiladas have just enough cheese to where you can choke on them and that's exactly the way I like it! We definitely were full after eating our entrees.. we didn't leave enough room this time for the deep fried sugar sticks that are shaped like Okra but we definitely left satisfied and that's what matters most. It was a successful date night ! read more
