8 Best Mexican Restaurants near Mount Dora

“We went to the Fiests Grande restaurant today (2-1-25). Somebody told the manager that my husband was stealing a cup that was on another table. My husband saw the cup and was showing me how cool it was (we are seniors and if my husband liked a cup that he saw he would have asked our server if the restaurant sold them, we do not have to steal. Nor were we dressed poorly.) So, the manager came over to us, and demanded to look in my husband's bag. I felt so bad for my husband! The look on his face! He was mortified! She did not find a cup, because my husband did not take anything. She embarrassed my husband and me in front of everyone. I approched the manager and told her she was out of line and she told me she had to protect her customers...well, my husband and I were also her customers, she didn't protect us from public humiliation! She also told me " I am Mexican, I know how it feels. I don't know what she meant by that. We will never visit that restaurant again, and probably won't go to Mt. Dora again either! Needless to say, our beautiful day was ruined.“

“The food was a solid 10/10—everything tasted great. Unfortunately, the customer service was subpar. Stephanie asked for my name, and when I explained that I hadn’t ordered yet and was there to place an order, she told me to give her a minute. While I looked over the menu, she tapped her fingers on the counter to get my attention instead of simply acknowledging that she was ready. Her overall demeanor felt dismissive and unwelcoming, and she never once said “thank you.” Great food, but the customer service could definitely use improvement.“

“They never disappoint!! Steak and shrimp never gets old!!“

“Had our first experience yesterday. The fruit drinks are super tasty! The tacos, empanadas and sopes were delicious! The pastor was our favorite! Definitely planning to return! It is an outdoor place with one table and five chairs so plan accordingly. But the food was delicious!“

“If I had the time to write a 5 page essay about how good the taco with fried pork belly was, I would. Lina is COOKING at this place for real. One of the best tacos I've had in ages, had my ratatouille moment here on that first bite and got a glimpse of my childhood. Keep cooking!! 10/10“

“Food was delish , it smelled great , nice and clean. Manager took our order and also brought out chips with guacamole, cheese and salsa. Service was Great!!“

“Great Food and Great service... My husband and I love coming here... If you leave hungry, its your own fault... The plates are always loaded with delicious food....“

“Ashima gave the BEST experience we have ever had in the fast food industry! Definitely made our day in the drive-thru and gave us a good laugh. Sometimes you don’t know what you need to keep you going but his energy was what we needed! Our food was hot but was lacking a little since we ordered extra meat on tacos but because of Ash we just ate it anyway. Thank you Ash! Keep your spirit high!“
