Me and my family love Fiesta Bravo. This is authentic food and not at all over priced. The portions are good and always fresh. The atmosphere is friendly.
Im from out of town; 1st time being here and I cheaned my plate. The food was absolutely delicious. Ive been to alot of Hispanic restaurants and this one tops them all. My husband and I both ordered churrascos. Mine was the honduran churrasco. Everything about my plate was perfect. We asked about the pupusas and the torta but they were out, which just goes to show how good they must be. Go early if you want pupusas or tortas. I dont live here but i Definitely recomended to my sister in law.

This is a nice local family run business. The tacos were excellent and I would definitely go back. They also have a variety of sodas from south of the border. The lime soda I tried was well above my expectations.
This is a good place to try some decent Latin food. Rich in flavor and a good level of authenticity. I would have loved to get hand made tortillas rather than pre-cooked ones.
, I haven't tried enchiladas but I do recommend the Pollo Apanado, aka empanisado which is breaded fried chicken which is really good every single time and the Churrasco is always great.. , and for dessert they have the good tiramisu. I wish they had the Tress Leche but they dont.. They always have good avocados and tostones which for Puerto Rican is what we need. 4 star because I don't give five
In the many years I've lived in the area I've heard of this establishment but never ate there, food was delicious did the basic tacos al pastor with some Mexican Coca Colas, IYKYK, prices seemed very reasonable and the food looked fresh and tasted great as well, when I'm back in the area I'll endeavor more intonl their menu of Mexican and Ecuadorian Dishes. Highly Rexommend would return. Oh I forgot to mention there's two salsa one is a mild the other is my favorite in some type of dish but had heat and flavor and it lasted even after I finished eatting. Would go there just for Chips and Salsa.
Easy to walk in and order for Togo. The steak nachos were very tasty, meat was seasoned nicely and tasted great. They use real shredded melted cheese and not a cheese sauce. Tortilla chips were fresh, and horchata is yummy. Very happy with the purchase will come back to try other dishes. Only down side was it was 93 outside and felt the same Inside.
Great food, we ordered cheese Quesadilla and Guacamole with chips and strawberry milkshakes. Everything tasted fresh and delicious, the Guacamole in particular was one of the best I have had. Would definitely return here and try some of the other items on the menu.

Depending on what you are looking for it's a mash culture wise of equadorian and Mexican food. The Mexican food there does not do it's justice to be called Mexican it's nothing like Mexican food but they tried. On the equadorian side of things I'm ignorant of what a typical authentic dish would taste like so that's the reasoning of giving it 3 Stars
The waitress was nice. But the food was overpriced for what we have. Unfortunately the food did not taste great, the meat was hard, chips stale, drinks badly mix. The waitress had to talk to her manager to reimburse us the drinks but she (manager) seemed frustrated and I was shock because you could clearly tell by the color and that it was not made correctly. I am not sure if we got charge extra for something else?!?.

Food was alright, chips are not free which is very weird. Mole sauce tasted a little strange, and the chicken inside of the enchiladas was extremely dry and very bland. They forgot to give us a portion of our order too. Food is okay in a pinch if you’re craving it, but the quality and taste isn’t that great.
Stopped in for late lunch with a coworker. No soap in the bathroom soap dispenser. Salt shaker had crud all over the top. Chips were not fresh, oily and some were inedible. Salsa was really thick and seemed like it came from a jar. I had steak enchiladas with green sauce, rice and beans. Steak was really dry, had a couple of bits of tendon or fat that I couldn't chew. The sauce was good. The rice was a mix of clumpy and overcooked along with some rice that was okay. The beans were just fine. My coworker said the fries that came with his sandwich were good but the sandwich was mediocre at best. Staff was nice enough. They only have bottled drinks, no water in a glass so be prepared to spend $3 for two waters. Would not eat here again.

Bad experience the horchata It's not a real horchata and the quesadillas eww really bad they doesn't know how to cook a real latino American food because the people who cook at the back are all ecuadorians

Terrible!!! Purchased 5 burritos for my workers for lunch and was quite embarrassed on the outcome. 1st let me ask you what Mexican restaurant does not know how to roll a burrito, secondlie in had bland white rice in it with no seasoning and I'm guessing maybe one oz of meat. I've never had such a dry burrito that I felt like choking throughout the process. When I called to complain to the owner they didn't really want to hear my concerns.
Been here twice now. Dissapointed both times. This time I ordered a pork burrito. Should have been named a white rice and lettuce burrito. To be date it did have some bits of pork. Hot sauce on the table was Louisiana hot sauce, the chips which were Good (made fresh) they came with a doctored up (barely) pace picante type paste. Don't bother to try. I won't be spending any more money here. Very disappointing.
Stopped by in order to get some good Mexican food. Read the reviews that called it "great" and "authentic". The salsa tasted like tostitos that you buy in the grocery store. Ordered chilaquiles con Carne asada and rice and beans. Got served only chilaquiles and rice and beans. The sauce was sour and not very good but I was hungry so I finished it. I asked the waitress about my Carne asada, she looked at me like I was crazy. I told her it never came out. My brothers ordered tacos dorados and tostadas, both with no cream. Both came out with cream. Food was not tasty. Not coming back.
I felt like I was dining at someone's house and they didn't know what taste was about. They also didn't care serving old crackers and bad spices. Needless to say, it was very disappointing. I should have read reviews first but I was having internet issues and the traffic to the Taco place with good reviews down the road was locked up.
