La Fuente Mexican Food is a well-known spot in Hillcrest, famous for its accommodating vegetarian options and generous portions. Customers appreciate the open salsa bar with a variety of salsas and veggies, with the habanero salsa being a notable favorite. The Carne Asada fries are a must-try, and even without meat, they are a hit. The restaurant features a rewards system and hosts Taco Tuesdays outside, making it a lively destination. Recent reviews highlight the delicious hard tacos and the affordable happy hour pricing, where chicken tacos are $2 and beef or fish tacos are $3. The bean & cheese burrito, priced at $7.99, is large and comes with a soda.
The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, with seating available inside and out. While some customers have noted minor issues with bland Jamaica or overly peppery rolled tacos, many praise the food and service. Reviewers mention that La Fuente is perfect for fueling up before a night out or satisfying late-night cravings. Overall, La Fuente Mexican Food is a true gem for those seeking flavorful, filling, and affordable Mexican dining in the area.
