Interesting place. The staff are really nice though. When you walk in, the first red flag is there are fold out chairs at random tables. Second red flag is ketchup as an option at the table. Third red flag is the salsa tastes like they put oregano inside it to season it. The guac has no taste, had to add salt and lime. My mixed chicken and beef fajitas had more peppers than actual meat. My margarita was pretty good though. The queso cheese thickened up quickly and was like a mini cheese brick. Tried to ignore the flags based on a recommendation from a friend. lol never again (: Food was not even presentable enough to take pics.

Excellent little place to have a peaceful, casual and delicious meal. They have a lot to choose from, authentic food and friendly staff. Usually I don't enjoy salsa much but their house salsa was very nice. Loved their guacamole, when you order it as a side it comes in a cheerful, little green tortilla shell bowl that you can eat. It was very cute. Prices are not high like other places and we left full and happy. I will gladly return another time. The food I saw being served to other parties and the menu pictures all looked great.I kind of forgot we were on Central Ave. The atmosphere makes you feel like you're in a clean, fun, quaint and well loved establishment.I love finding hidden gems. I was having a terrible day and my experience at La Fiesta turned everything around. What a pick-me-up! Thank you La Fiesta!

I travel for work, so i came in based on the reviews to get good food. I guess I was excited for nothing. They thought I spoke Spanish but I didn't. Got some funny looks after that. I get that mix up a lot, but not a big deal. I sat down and ordered food. I looked around me and everyone got chips and salsa except me. I thought maybe because they are busy. Then I get my food and I have never seen the survey again. I was there for close to an hour and half and nothing. I didn't enjoy my food because of some of the add-ons I would like to get. Complete disappointment.

La Fiesta, on Central Ave, does Mexican cuisine very well. They have wonderful, attentive staff, ingredients are fresh, great portions, excellent margaritas. If you love Mexican cuisine, do not overlook this restaurant.

The food here was all right. I was surprised to see the great reviews. The chicken had a bit too much salt. A friend who got the cheese sauce on top of the chicken said that the sauce tasted like something out of a can. Would not stop here agaib.

Very good Mexican food. They have several meals with Chorizo which I love. We have never been disappointed.
Below average Mexican food. Flavorless menu options covered in what taste like canned melted cheese. Salsa taste like it came out of a can as well. There's better spots in the area.
