TetonClimber Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Hi Lake Dwellers... I would really appreciate any recommendations you might have about the best place to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for a visiting group of 8. Your kind response is much appreciated!

gringal Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Many people have praised the Thanksgiving feast at Manix in downtown Ajijic as being "the best". Others offering special dinners are beginning to advertise in the local Guadalajara Reporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suegarn Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 There are several good ones to choose from. Manix, Gosha's, and Elegante are ones that I personally have tried, and loved them all. As gringal said, check the Friday edition of the Guadalajara Reporter, or keep an eye on this board for more suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Berca Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Manix is now taking reservations and expects to sell out both sittings quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaTerraza Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Lakeside Restaurant/Bistro Happenings category on this web board is a great place to follow what is happening in the local Restaurant Scene. I know Elegante has already posted their Thanksgiving Menu there. We at la Terraza are already about 1/2 booked for Nov 22nd and will be publishing our Thanksgiving menu there today as well as on our website http://laterrazaajijic.com/ One of the things we keep hearing from customers is how they love to have us do the dinner but miss having leftovers for a midnight snack or lunch the next day. On Canadian Thanksgiving we started a promotion called "A Sandwich to Go" in which for an extra $100 pesos we made you a Turkey sandwich with gravy, and dressing and cranberry sauce to go. Fantastic Response with about 3/4 of our dinners taking a sandwich box home. We will be doing the same promotion for US Thanksgiving on Nov 22nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Having just seen the Thanksgiving dinner ads in the recent Guad Reporter, I'll offer one cautionary note: I'd advise against going to the one at the Nueva Posada. The setting is lovely, but something unfortunate has happened to the kitchen and many people are reporting disappointing meals, including me. I'd go elsewhere for the holiday. There have been good recommendations so far in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryB Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Manix is having two seatings 2 and 6. While they will be full, have no fear of an on time hot magnificent meal. This is Hector's speciality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justathought Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Many people recommend Manix . However I was there 2 years ago and promised myself never to go back for their Thanksgiving meal. Our seating was for 2:00 , but they recommended that we be there by 1:30. Was seated up stairs . Unfortunately it was loud, because they had a guy on a guitar playing the whole time and people had to raise their voices to try to make conversation with others. The guy seated next to us , was pretty much shouting . The food was pretty tasty though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Berca Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Manix is sold out for both seatings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
