Ixtapa Mexican Restaurant in Hood River is more than just a restaurant for us—it’s a necessary stop on every single trip we take through to Portland. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food paired with a welcoming atmosphere, this is the place to be.
First off, the staff is absolutely fantastic. Every single person we’ve encountered, from the host to the servers, is genuinely friendly, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. It truly elevates the dining experience.
The food is consistently great. They offer classic dishes made with care, and everything always tastes fresh and delicious. To go along with the meal, the drinks are tasty and well-made—the perfect way to relax and recharge before hitting the road again.
I highly recommend stopping at Ixtapa. It’s a highlight of our journey and we look forward to it every time!

It was only a 5 minute walk from our Hotel and while they close at 2100 and we showed up at 2015, they still let us order a full dinner. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The food was very good and well prepared, and the portions were generous. All five of us enjoyed everything.

Nice restaurant and the food was decent but not much value for your dollar. I ordered the 3 item combo (which I can usually never finish elsewhere) with the expectation that I would have leftovers for lunch the following day but there were none. If the prices where a bit more reasonable then it wouldn’t be an issue. But definitely not cheap compared to similar restaurants and less food.

Kind staff that do all possible to make you feel welcome and appreciated. The food was wonderful, the “Winter Margarita” was the best I’ve ever had and our kids loved the wide selection of lemonades!

I visited this restaurant as part of a family road trip because it seemed appealing according to Google maps. While the service and experience were excellent, the food itself was expensive, bland, and over-salted.
We entered at a busier time, during dinner rush the night before Independence Day. It’s absolutely worth noting that the service was still very professional and attentive throughout the complete experience. The tables were also clean and well laid out—seating our group of 10 was not a challenge.
We found our first issue with the value. Whereas Google showed $10-20, this is pretty much impossible with the dinner menu, especially with a suitable tip considered. It’s hard to find anything substantial on the menu listed less than $18 or so. The fact that the meal ended up being smaller than most restaurants like this left us feeling like we spent more than we should have, especially considering the food.
The cuisine itself was mediocre and you could make better food at home with not much effort. The consensus around the table was that the food was pretty salty and bland. Additionally, the Ixtapa Burrito that I ordered didn’t have any vegetables inside it, just rice, beans, and chorizo (which I requested for protein). It was adorned with salsa, sour cream, and guac, but those didn’t really make up for the lack of fillings. Where’s the lettuce? Pico? Sautéed onions and peppers?
I wholeheartedly believe that anyone could make significantly better food in their home kitchen with little effort, and because of that I’m inclined to give it a 2/5 rating. However, due to outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere, I think I can justify 3/5 overall.

Great mango margarita, one of the best. Loved the steak fajita. Salsa was a bit thin but overall good food and service.

Good food, service, and ambiance.
My family and I are regular customers. I have yet to not enjoy my experience here. I stopped by recently (Mothers Day) for lunch with my wife. I had the shrimp fajitas and my wife had a combination plate including a tamale and enchilada. They were both quite good. We had dessert too, flan and deep fried ice cream. I had the latter and it was just ok. Did not taste freshly made, and the fact that we got our desserts within a few minutes tells me they were simply plated and brought out to us. Understandable with the flan but not as much with the deep fried ice cream. Did they just pull it out of a box in the freezer? A tiny bit disappointing but not enough to knock off a star. We were still quite satisfied with the overall experience, as we always are. I would (one item from their dessert menu withstanding) recommend this place.

We came in for lunch on Thursday and the restaurant has Margaritas day which is 18oz originally $10.50, with 25%discount for 7.95 only! We simply picked few options on the lunch menu, and the portion was generous, price very reasonable! We ended up to pack some Fajitas home for next meal. Nice location, just off I84; plenty parking and seating available.

Me and my kids drove by this place today during our Spring Break vaca and decided to drive back for dinner. We are super glad we did!! Great service, deep and wide menu, Sangria and they even had Seafood Molcajete. A little on the expensive side but the quality and service made up for it. We will be back again

We used to go to Crazy Peppers, for years. Then they changed names, they became something else and I think they have ultimately closed. The only alternative at that time was the Taqueria up in the Heights, but it wasn’t that great. Consistently average. We then found Ixtapa. The food has been great for years and we are very thankful that we have a high-quality Mexican restaurant in town. The prices are a little higher than normal. The quality and quantity of food more than makes up for it. We did take out for years, and just in the last 2 started dining in. Staff are attentive overall. We tend to always get the same dishes. Lots of things on the menu to try, however.
