Experience Through Their Eyes

Amazing! I am "Wow'ed" by them. I was heading to Taco Bell but, then, decided to "do something different." It was 2:20 pm. Sat at the bar and ordered Speedy Gonzales with beans to-go. But while I was waiting the owner, while serving others at the bar shots, asked if I wanted to try it. I'm not a drinker but they were all loving the taste of this brand that's top shelf tequila called Padre Azul Anejo. They all had to tell me how to drink it. Regardless, it was SMOOTH. Yeah Gracias, Manaagement for your wonderful hospitality. Your Food is Delicious, too! Tu comida tambien es deliciosa! Muchas Gracias.

Food was amazing and portions were great. I ordered chimichangas and the meat ratio was the highest I've ever had at a resturant. The guacamole, salsa, and white sauces were unique and tasty. Service was attentive, kind and thoughtful. Carlos was our server and was great. Atmosphere was cozy. We appreciate the awesome experience and will be coming back.

First time ever in this restaurant and it was amazing. As soon as you entered the restaurant it make you feel like you just entered Mexico and you were just invited over a good friends grandma house for dinner. The atmosphere was welcoming and our waiter (Paco) was AWESOME! This little restaurant packed great punch. Let's not forget Happy Hour is from 4pm to 8pm. They also have a nice bar and for people who love sports they also have televisions entertainment. Go and check them out everyone and don't forget to TIP. Thank you

I dined here a few times and both were great. I ordered via Uber Eats the day before I moved and sadly the order was missing my daughter's taco in her kids meal, but I called and they were apologetic and tried to make it right. They were not able to As I used Uber Eats they said to dispute the entire order. I said no it was just the taco but he was very kind. If I stayed in the area I would eat there again

La Fiesta was delicious! I am SO FULL!! Chips salsa and white sauce were served promptly upon being seated. The salsa was spicy. I loved it. It had a great flavor! Babe didn't even try it because, for me to say it was spicy, it was proved that it would definitely be overly spicy to him. Plus, he enjoyed the white sauce. Which also had a kick and a tangy, yummy flavor. We enjoyed the Texas fajitas, which was served with rice and beans and guacamole salad. My husband did not care for the corn tortillas that were served with the fajitas. They have flour tortillas but were not served with the fajitas. The chicken, steak, and shrimp were sauteed with onions and bell peppers. The mixture seemed to have a tomato paste coating or possibly were sauteed with tomato or a paste of some sort. We had a pick three combination with 2 chicken quesadillas and a Chile relleno, with rice and beans. The Chile relleno was the tastiest I've had in a very long time. The mole sauce was soo good, and it didn't taste like it was pre-made and wasn't overly breaded. It was, however, loaded with warm, gooey cheese. We agree that the chicken quesadillas were our favorite part of our meal. They were perfectly seasoned and so delicious they were gone in a jif. We also enjoyed fresh guacamole, which was absolutely FRESH and delightful. The tomatoes seemed like they were possibly a premade mixture of Pico de Gallo (you know the texture of tomatoes after being diced and stored in the refrigerator) rather than fresh diced tomatoes but it was enjoyable none the less. Our waiter was very nice and all smiles. He did not automatically refill our drinks. He waited until they were completely empty before offering refills. We did have more than one server check in with us to ensure all was well. Overall, we had a good experience and plan to return.

Ordered through DoorDash. Disclaimer: I really do not eat Mexican food because my stomach cannot usually handle it, but the food I got today was delicious!! My husband thoroughly enjoyed the bowl. He loved using the taco bowl to eat the salad and the chicken was cooked very nicely. The chicken quesadilla was also good! I wish I had known it came with onions and peppers inside because I would've asked to remove them, but after I took them out, the taste was still amazing! The chicken was shredded nicely and tender! The churros were delicious! They weren't overly sweet, had a nice crunch on the outside, but nice and soft on the inside. Our food also came with nacho chips, and salsa and queso blanco for the chips for free! Would definitely order here again or even visit!
