feewee Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Hello everyone - I have been browsing your forum and enjoying all the reviews and stories. I am looking for recommendations for a higher end restaurant where I can take visitors for Xmas dinner and New Year's Eve (meal + music). Food is the primary focus but also a place for which you would get a little dressed up .(Doesn't have to be too formal but comfortable and stylish) I am open to all suggestions if you could share your favourite places or comment on the following: Roberto's La Mision Nueva Posada (hotel) Manix Thank you !

kbleitch Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 We have lived here over four years. And I believe we have gone to Christmas dinner every year but perhaps our first at Manix. It is very well done. They carry in the roast pig and I believe they also serve turkey, along with all the normal side dishes. The quality is very good and it is consistent. The service is excellent and the meal is fairly priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Berca Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Manix buffet and La Nueva Posada family style are tied for first place based on my experiences. Others are nice, but not equal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgates Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 There are some fancy NY Eve events at the major hotels in Guadalajara. Not sure about here since No. 4 is closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desafinada Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 It looks like Avocado Club is doing a New Year's Eve dinner and dancing bash. One of the menu options is a 2 lb lobster, other less extravagant options also available. I believe they have done the lobster option before. Someone might have feed back from that time.

el bartman Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Manix - the Turkey and "in the ground" roasted Pig are to live for. Presentation excellent. Ambience excellent. Having said that, for me, Christmas isn't Christmas without Turkey. Roast Pig a bonus. Dancing doesn't interest me for Christmas dinner nor does music so load I can't enjoy talking to friends at a normal pinch. Second choice would be Nuevo Posada but don't know who the chef is now. Parking decent at both places. New Years is another kettle of fish and many prefered private parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova Scotia lobster or Caribbean?? Better yet a Blue Newfoundland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that he's getting the lobsters from Nova Scotia again, like he did the last time. I don't think that I've ever seen a 2 pound Caribbean lobster.

feewee Posted December 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 hello la Mision - your NY Eve party sounds wonderful. I will discuss with "the clan" and get back to you. I had a wonderful evening at your restaurant this summer. Food was great but the crowning glory was the father-son musical duo - wonderful!! Thanks to everyone else - that roast pig at Manix for Christmas dinner is calling my name ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
