Mainecoons Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 This will be the first year we'll likely be going out for Christmas dinner. Would appreciate suggestions as to where to go for a QUIET, nicely set and prepared Christmas dinner without "benefit" of the obnoxiously loud "music" far too many restaurants here assail the senses with. We've already eliminated the restaurants in noisy locations but also want to avoid those that have noisy dining rooms because of poor acoustics or too many tables. Thanks for suggestions from those of you who usually eat out for Christmas day dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bournemouth Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I'd opt for La Nueva Posada. The only noise would possibly come from the macaw, demanding food by screeching and ringing the bell in his cage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wookie Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I agree about La Nueva Posada. However, if we were going to be in town I would check with Ninette's to see if they were going to be open. Even if it was not "holiday" fare, the restaurant is really nice, cloth tablecloths, nice silverware, excellent service and food. It is a dining experience instead of the normal eating experience ... to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry maybe you could have Hector post the details of his Christmas offering in the restaurant section. Or do it for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I'll second or third the motion for Nueva Posada. Beautiful setting and I believe it's a sit down dinner rather than a buffet, which can be a plus, depending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainecoons Posted December 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 I'm getting feedback the Manix buffet is on the crowded side with a fair amount of standing in line. We really don't need a buffet and would prefer a quiet sit down individual service setting where a restaurant is serving traditional U.S. holiday fare. Don't really care anything about the roast pig either. Along those lines, what would you all suggest? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xena Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 If La Nueva Posada is your choice for Christmas dinner make your reservation soonest. They sell out a lot sooner than you would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmartTraveller Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 For next year.... We went to Go! for lunch yesterday. It was superb and had only a small quartet including a harp player so no ear splitting noise. It was $200 pesos without postres, $250 with. The turkey was tasty, moist and succulent. Vegies cooked just right...slightly crunchy. The Christmas pudding with Grand Marnier sauce was to die for. It was light yet full of fruit. All served at the table - no buffet lines to contend with. Drink prices were very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryB Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 The Christmas Dinner at Manix was an all time record breaker! I talked to Hector about standing in line and he said that he deals with it by calling up patrons by table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poptarte_22@yahoo.com Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 GO was a first class dining experience on Christmas day. Delicious food, served piping HOT...not always the case in Mexico...and good service. I would definitely go again at Xmas, we do go frequently......very well organized...Good job Pedro and CREW!!
