If you're looking for authentic flavors, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I wanted to find a Mexican spot for a special date night, and Ixchel was more than we could have asked for! The ambiance was delightful; you felt at home immediately. We ordered a mix of appetizers and entrees and each one surpassed our expectations in terms of flavor and authenticity. Waitstaff was attentive, and the drinks complemented our meal perfectly. I highly recommend their margaritas—delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delighted by the meals at Ixchel! We had varied dishes, and every single one was an explosion of flavors—definitely authentic! The combination of spices is simply perfect. I particularly loved the lamb tacos; they were just phenomenal. The vibe is something we’ve not found at our usual spots, making it a great night out! While my drink was a bit on the expensive side, it was still worth it for such an atmosphere. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ixchel, oh my! What a fantastic experience start to finish. I’ve tried many Mexican places, but this one stands out for its authentic flavor profiles. The chiles en nogada were exquisite. The service was attentive, but not overbearing; just perfect. The cocktail selection was impressive—we tried several and each was a winner! Honestly, if you're looking for truly authentic and flavorful Mexican cuisine, Ixchel should be your number one choice. Can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently celebrated my birthday at Ixchel and it was an unforgettable experience! The food was simply incredible, particularly the table-side guacamole, which was made fresh and was bursting with flavor. The ambiance of the restaurant is charming, combining modern decor with traditional Mexican elements perfectly. Our server was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the evening. The drinks were equally impressive; I highly recommend the signature margaritas! This will definitely be our go-to spot for birthdays and special occasions in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Ixchel last night based on glowing recommendations, and it was a mixed experience. The restaurant is beautifully designed, contributing to a lovely atmosphere. However, the service felt a little slow for our liking. The food was flavorful—especially the carnitas—but I was expecting larger portions for the price. I truly hope they can iron out these wrinkles; it's got great potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Ixchel was a pleasant surprise! I had heard so many glowing reviews, and I was eager to see if the restaurant lived up to the hype. To my delight, the ambiance was delightful, and I noticed that the decor paid homage to traditional Mexican culture while still feeling modern. The food was rich in flavor and made with fresh ingredients. However, I faced a slight hiccup with service, as it took a while to get our drinks initially; the staff is friendly but could be quicker when the restaurant is busy. That said, overall the experience was great, and I plan to visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)
