Reviews for Ixtapa Fine Mexican Cuisine in Overland Park, KS
Incredible food, nice and clean restaurant, cozy casual atmosphere, excellent service, delicious and affordable drinks. Did I... mention the incredible food?! The tortillas are outstanding and like nothing I've ever had in KC. This place checks every boxwhen it comes to dining out. We talked about our next trip back on the car ride home. The best authentic Mexican food in town! Read more
We always love coming to Ixtapa. The owner is very attentive and entertaining. He educates everyone on the history of Mexican... food and what is wrong with common Mexican food topped with gross yellow cheese. Everything they make is so fresh and delicious.It tastes like you are at your friend's house and their mom or grandmother is in the kitchen cooking up something trulyauthentic. My favorite is the fish baked in the foil with vegetables- not something you would typically think of ordering at aMexican restaurant, but it's so light and refreshing, I promise it's the right choice. We also love the Pork Oaxaca, Pollochapala, and any of the specials. They often have live music on Friday nights with an acoustic guitar and harmonica playingfavorites by the Beatles, Neil Young, Billy Joel, Bob Dylan, among others. His name is Phil Wang- highly recommend him forprivate parties or gathering as well. Makes for a very pleasant dining experience. Read more

Had a really delightful lunch today. The restaurant is very clean and the atmosphere is pleasant. Our waiter was very busy but... very attentive despite him being the only one. The food was wonderful. This is not your typical Mexican restaurant. If you're inthe area and looking for a nice dining experience, I would highly recommend Ixtapa. Read more
Delightful owner who educates the diner on fine points of Mexican cuisine served in Ixtapa. Elevated, fresh, original and... authentic plates of classic Mexican cuisine. Every bite was flavorful! The wait staff was very attentive as well. Read more
AMAZING!! We were seated immediately & received excellent service! There was live music, which was a perfect touch. Victor made... our meal/experience unforgettable and everything was so delicious!! My daughter & I even let him select our meals, which isn?tsomething I do regularly but all thumbs up. The mango cheesecake was my favorite though!! I wasn?t sure bc I recently had mangocheesecake at a Thai restaurant but it was very good. But what we had at Ixtapa was so unique and perfect. Can?t wait to goback!! Read more
Outstanding service and delicious food! We were seated immediately and served waters, chips, and salsa. The salsa is a bit of... a different texture/consistency than you?ll see elsewhere but the taste is phenomenal. Our server treated us to some mini tacoson the house: beans, cheese and pico. The family loved it. I had the steak Ixtapa. Honestly I was surprised at how much Iliked the rice. Normally I skip the rice at other restaurants but I could stop eating the rice. The family all loved theirdishes too. We shared 3 desserts: the chocolate mousse, mango cheesecake and sweet potato cheesecake. All three desserts wereamazing and despite my photos, the presentation was phenomenal. We will definitely be back! Read more
Oh my word. I will never go to another Mexican restaurant again. This is the place to go. I have never met staff so friendly or... accommodating in my life before. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars. Our server knew what drinks my husband and Iwanted and we didn't even look at the menu, haha! I know that sounds crazy but he was so dedicated to his craft that he justknew what I liked and disliked. Our mains were phenomenal. Melt in your mouth steaks and their sauce was house made, I wish Iasked for the recipe. My husband absolutely loved his bacon wrapped pork medallions, he was dancing along to the music while hewas eating. Dessert was unbelievable. I wish I could describe it better. You just have to try it for yourself, absolutelydelish. Read more
