Best service I have received in years.... We went in on a Wednesday night for dinner. Could not have asked for better service. Food was wonderful. And we will be back again soon. If you have not eaten here or it's been a while don't miss out.

While traveling home from San Marcos we were looking for a good Mexican restaurant so we googled reviews and decided on La Fiesta. This place did not disappoint!! Food was great and the selection was large. Our waitress was attentive and very friendly. Atmosphere was very nice. We will be back!!

This is one of our favorite places to eat in town for lunch or dinner. Their Mexican Martini's are fantastic, & the food is always great, fresh & very tasty! They have live music on some weekends, and really good, friendly bartenders. I highly recommend checking them out if you are looking for a great place to eat, & hangout with some friends!

Had no problem with the food are the service the last time I was there. However the music was incredible LOUD. There were 3 of us and we all agreed. We asked the server if they could turn it down and the server immediately said they had several complaints about how LOUD it was. The server said they were not allowed to turn it down. Apparently only the owner has control over the Music. I've heard people say it's to get people out faster which to me that sounds crazy. Although I have to admit we were ready to leave because it was unbearable LOUD. The owner needs to listen when several people are
