I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
I travel for business, and I look for Mexican food in every city I am in, and this place is AWESOME!!! I went there for breakfast originally because they were one of the only places open at 9am in the area.
Loved the corned beef hash.

I am a DoorDash driver and I came in to pick up an order. 3 people were working close to the pick up counter, none of them ever acknowledged me or even greeted. They walked passed me a few times before one of them asked another if there were any orders for DoorDash. At that point one said to me “do you have an order?”. They still never addressed me or communicated the order status. Please have the staff work on over all customer service, not just the ones tipping them.

We've been eating here for a long time and the food is absolutely incredible. The staff are friendly and helpful. And it was a pleasant surprise, that one night we ended up coming here to check out the bar and it was an absolute blast.

Used to come here for girls night but last time they charged us an automatic gratuity of 20% for four people! We weren’t a large party and it was a Tuesday night!

Probably the worst burrito I’ve had in my life, very dry and the “sauce” was terrible. Gave it another try after not eating here for a few years and it went down hill. Worse than what I remember. Go somewhere else for authentic Mexican food because this place isn’t it.

We have eating here since opening. Oscar needs to step up the game. Food is still good but service has been terrible for the past 3 years. Covid is over and still poor service. Prices have gone up a large amount and it is understandable However Quality of service has NOT kept up with the pricing.

How do you eat Fajitas without tortillas? Ask La Fuente… they refused to deliver my flour tortillas that they left out of my Fajita order. I understand that it is small item to worry about but it’s FAJITAS. The only solution they offered me was to come down to the restaurant and pick them up myself. I told him that I ordered through Doordash because I am disabled and cant drive… his response “ oh well, I don’t know what to tell you but we are busy here.” What a rude comment. Must be nice to have so much business that you fail to take accountability for the mistakes you make…. Karma
Yummy,should try

I happened upon La Fuente when I was waiting to eat at another restaurant nearby. I walked in and was seated right away, so I decided to stay. I have been back a few times since then.I have tried the jalapeno poppers (good!), the shrimp tacos (amazing!!!), and the Carne asada (decent). A friend tried the shrimp and chicken fajitas and said they were good.Food: Good. The carne asada plate could use a little more seasoning like garlic, comino, chili powder, etc... not necessarily salt. But that's coming from someone who loves Tex-Mex.Service: I have been treated well the times that I've gone.Atmosphere: It can get pretty busy, but it is very pleasant when you pick the right time of the day.I've been more than once. None of the details above have kept me from going back. Try it out for yourself! You might realize that you've just found your new favorite spot.
Parking: The parking lot is small and shared. There's street parking available when you go at the right time. Otherwise, it can be difficult to find a space.
