El Ancla Restaurant Bar and Grill - 45920 Ajijic

Good service but slightly above average food.

Good food, fast service, friendly staff.

El Ancla has the BEST original Caesar salad in all of Ajijic that is prepared at your table. The service is friendly and quick. Their chicken in mushroom sauce is excellent, too.

Another great meal, you can't go wrong eating here

We ate at El Ancla for the first time last Friday. The service was good but the food was great!my husband had the mixed molcajete and we cannot day enough good things about it! It was absolutely delicious:) I had a Caesar salad and a T-bone steak. The steak was very flavorful and the sautéed veggies with it were also quite tasty. We are going back tonight for salads and to share that delicious molcajete?

Excellent food, service was too notch. Nice hidden place.

Love their t-bone dinner. Reasonably priced great staff.

WOW. Thought we had eaten at all the best places, but this place blew us away. Definitely will be returning. Good service, nice venue. Mojitos were fantastic, much better than the margaritas. Garlic toast was nice. Guacamole was very good and fresh, perfectly cooked chips, not too hard. If they had had one of those coarse pepper grinders and added some of that these would have been perfect. Mussels were very good but the white wine sauce was actually too winey, which is a crazy thing for me to complain about but it was just overpoweringly wine tasting. Seafood soup was epic, a giant meal in itself, with half a crab, shrimp, mahi, mussels, clams, carrots and zucchini in a fantastic sauce. Super messy but one of the best things I've had in years. Whole red snapper was almost as amazing, delicious vegetables and potatoes and the fish itself had such flavor. Salmon was very good too, same sides as snapper.
