Ixtapa, 2016 West 23rd, 838-4044. Ixtapa calls itself a Mexican family restaurant. The name comes from the Mexican city. Murals of the city decorate the walls, and Spanish-speaking wait staff greet customers as they enter. Diners may choose from either corn or flour tortillas with their fajitas and can choose from beef, chicken, pork and shrimp combination plates. Taco, cheese and green salads are available. Jefferson's, 743 Massachusetts St. 832-200. Specializing in wings, burgers and seafood, Jefferson's offers a variety of food. College pennants hang on the walls along with dollar bills signed by customers. Rock 'n' roll is the music of choice. The kitchen serves four types of Buffalo wings with chips, celery and dressing. Appetizers include fried mushrooms, fried dill pickles, nachos, stuffed jalapeno peppers and shrimp jammers. Salads come plain or with grilled, Cajun or fried chicken. The seafood menu includes peel-and-eat shrimp, boiled crawfish and crab legs. Jeff Webb, proprietor, says his burgers and oysters have been the most popular in Lawrence. "We're here for good," Webb said. Lou Zeana's, 15th and Kasold, 84-CAJUN. This restaurant brings the Bayou to Lawrence. Moss hangs off the walls and there is a swamp-like feel to the place. The gator bites are the restaurant's most popular appetizer. The Cajun Carnival is its specialty. It offers gumbo, a roux-based soup with Andouille sausage, chicken and rice; jambalaya, a tomato and rice stew with vegetables, sausage and chicken; and crawfish etouffee, crawfish tails on top of a rich, spicy sauce made with dark roux and rice. Brandon Freeman, assistant manager, says Lou Zeana's will have a crawfish-eating contest in the fall. The restaurant has added large pan to go items for parties and businesses, and Freeman says the restaurant has plans to expand in September.
