Good Mexican food here. I enjoy their spicy salsa the most. Enjoyed a large order of chicken nachos and a cold beer.

We walked in and I asked for a table for three in Spanish — it’s a Mexican restaurant after all — and the hostess immediately told me she didn’t speak Spanish. Fine, I switched to English. Once seated, it became clear there was nothing truly Mexican about this place. No one spoke Spanish, the food had absolutely no flavor or seasoning, and overall it felt more like a bland American restaurant than anything authentic. Honestly the worst “Mexican” restaurant I’ve been to. Wouldn’t recommend.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING, starting with the food quality. Please read: this is NOT a mexican restaurant, hostess said “she didn’t speak Spanish” while her face clearly shows her origins, seriously? She was very very rude from the beginning. We decided to still try the food and it was not worth it!!! Awful, gave us a stomachache as soon as we ate, what a disgraceful experience. It’s literally the WORST mexican restaurant I have ever been to in my entire life. do not bother to eat here.

The Mexican cuisine at La Fiesta is sub-par, particularly compared to Mexican meals elsewhere. The food is exceptionally bland, consists of cheap ground beef. My son's meal was inedible..deep fried outer with the grossest chicken meat, if it could even be identified as chicken. The meals consists of no lettuce, guacamole, or tomatoes, and to get these, unlike other Mexican places, you have to pay extra! 1.50 for a small bowl of iceberg; and clearly, the restaurant is trying to keep food prices lowered by charging exorbitant prices for tea and water...seven dollars of the bill for tea and a sprite. I wonder that Athens' customers are satisfied with the cutting corners, sensationally bland food, and exorbitant prices for a simple tea and sprite. I don't think the cook knows anything about Mexican cuisine, and the owners are clearly cutting a lot of corners that other great Mexican restaurants do not. Two meals and drinks..$37.00. Only thing positive is the 98 food score. Servers weren't particularly gracious either. I am sorry Athens customers don't have a better choice. Visit Los Cerritos in Cornelia, owned by owners who understand Mexican cuisine, and you will experience excellent Mexican food and friendly service, and you will never eat here again.

Absolutely disgusting. Worst mexican restaurant I have ever been to. Rude hostess, she thinks she is American and says she “doesn’t speak Spanish” when her face and her poor accent clearly show MEXICO all the way, what a shame. The food was awful as well. Great job, y’all suck!

We all enjoyed the food! And our server was very sweet and made sure we were taken care of. Not busy what so ever but it was a Sunday night about 730 so maybe that's just the norm.

Cheap prices, but everything else is just OK. Food is a 7.5/10 (great tortas) , Service is a 6.5/10 (clearly inexperienced and unhappy waitress, but did an OK job) , Environment is a 6.5/10 (kinda boring looking but the music is a good touch). There’s better places nearby, but this one is alright since the prices are slightly lower than avg. Also, no horchata :( and no Spanish speaking waitresses
