traderspoc Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Just had a great large bowl of chicken soup, while watching the lake at old posada ( Maria Isabel ) I just needed a pick me up something hot with liquid, was remembering my grandmothers chicken soup when was a kid and i wasn't feeling well. The chicken soup worked feeling better. Just like my grandmothers soup. lots of vegetables. The view of the lake was relaxing, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyfull Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Love the location, but have never had a decent meal there. Have tried it at least 6 times. Okay for a cold drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Love the location, but have never had a decent meal there. Have tried it at least 6 times. Okay for a cold drink. I'm with you. Never had any good food there, but one of us got sick on the first visit. Gave it a second chance. What can you conclude when the chicken taco has cool chicken in it? Coffee's okay. Beautiful location. Darn shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 It is a shame, especially when I see an ad in today's Reporter about their Thanksgiving BBQ (Canuck) with all-you-can-eat turkey and ribs... I just know I would be disappointed, based on past do's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexSeekin Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Love the location, but have never had a decent meal there. Have tried it at least 6 times. Okay for a cold drink. Hmm. . . . I seem to recall another poster on this board from a few months back also raving about the chicken soup served at this place. Perhaps it's the one stellar food item on offer? I must admit I've not been terribly impressed with my food selections at Maria Isabel, though I have yet to try their chicken soup. I do, however, find the atmosphere and scenery of this lakefront restaurant inviting, the servers polite, the guacamole acceptable for an afternoon snack, and the margaritas decent. Joyfull, have you tried their chicken soup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyfull, have you tried their chicken soup? My take on it: Sit outside, enjoy the lake view and order some cold drinks, chips and MAYBE guacamole, since less than very fresh onions can be a big problem.

Xena Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Drinks, chips, guacamole and their quesadillas are very good. Hint: order the veggie quesadilla and ask them to put chicken on it. Yummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
congodog Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 The burgers and hot dogs (and all the other fixin's) at the 4th of July picnic were wonderful. But generally, not very good food there. So perhaps the ribs will be good? (i.e. catered from outside). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyfull Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 So we went today & my husband had the Chicken soup. The only veggie in it was one piece of yellow (old) broccoli and tough chicken. I had a so so quesadilla. Coffee is very good. That's my report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
