First time eating here and I will definitely be coming back! My family and I came here on a snowy day so it wasn’t as packed, but regardless the service was very good. Our server, Daisy, was super personable and kept up with us. The food was amazing and the portion sizes were perfect. The music and decorations made for a fun atmosphere while eating.

If you’re looking for an incredible Mexican dining experience, this place is an absolute gem! The moment you walk in, you’re surrounded by vibrant colors, beautiful artwork, and an atmosphere that feels like a celebration. The entire restaurant is full of personality and energy — it’s impossible not to smile when you step inside. The food was fantastic, full of authentic flavors and clearly made with care. Everything we had was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. The staff were warm, welcoming, and made the whole experience even better. Between the lively décor, the great service, and the amazing food, this place is more than just a restaurant — it’s an experience. I’ll definitely be coming back and bringing friends and family with me. Highly recommend if you want great Mexican food in a fun, colorful setting! 🌮🌶️✨

The atmosphere is really cool. The live music was a nice touch! The food came out super fast and was delicious. Silvia was our server and she was a delight - quick and attentive but didn't check on us TOO often and let us enjoy our food and experience peacefully. Will definitely be coming back.

I went to La Fortaleza for the first time today, and let's just say I was not disappointed. Our waiter, Diego, was very kind and helpful when it came to questions about ordering. Diego had a very welcoming personality and I hope to see him again as a waiter! The food and drinks were great and the atmosphere was amazing. Will definitely be coming back again! Thank you, Diego!

Brought my daughter and her friends in for her birthday by her request . Ivan our server was phenomenal . He was engaging to a large group of 10 year old girls and had them laughing and smiling from beginning to end . They had a live dj and the girls got up and were having a birthday dance party . The birthday celebration that they doing the restaurant is also a site to see. All in all a great place to spend a birthday regardless of age. It truly is an experience .

Daisy was amazing, great energy & very attentive, oh and the drinks were perfect. I ordered the red snapper and it was incredible, fried and seasoned to absolute perfection! The calamari was great as well! First time visiting, definitely won't be the last.

Went on a Friday nights and they had a lie singer and also karaoke. The waitress Silvia was amazing. The food and atmosphere were perfectly balanced.

The atmosphere is really grabbing and fun! If you celebrate dia de los muertos or are into sugar skulls and masks, the visuals are aplenty. The food is worth the trip alone. I feel like you can't go wrong with ordering anything. If you get Daisy to wait on you at the Poughkeepsie site, you'll be in great hands. She knew the menu inside and out and was super personable. Will be returning.

Omg. I’m new to the area so my wife and I went to grab Mexican food and I am so glad we stopped in here. Daisy met us at the door with smiles and personality just so inviting. We will be back especially for Karaoke night. The decor is amazing. If u love art, come check them out. Also ask for daisy lol

We had a great experience thanks to our waiter, Diego. He was excellent, friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome from the start. We ordered the nachos and spicy margaritas, and both were fantastic. Diego checked in at all the right times, made great recommendations, and kept the energy fun and relaxed. His service truly elevated our meal, and we’ll definitely be back because of him!

Food was amazing! This was our first time here! Me and my youngest daughter definitely enjoy the atmosphere. Daisy was our server and was exceptionally pleasant. She checked on us several times during our visit and made sure we were OK. She asked several times if we needed any extra extras I will definitely be bringing my other children and my parents next time the Beria tacos were seasoned perfectly. My youngest daughter had the chicken quesadilla she said was great.

This was the first time we ever ate here. As a mexican family we are always looking for authentic mexican food near us. We visited on 1/1/2026. Everything was amazing! We loved the atmosphere, enjoying the live show, and our waiter Diego was great! He was patient, helpful, and funny. The woman singing this day was amazing as well! If she's not a professional she definitely can be! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience! And we will be returning very soon!

Overall experience was a 10/10. Food is well seasoned and prepared. Atmosphere is so beautiful and my server Diego took special care of us, marvelous worker and terrific service. I will definitely be returning for some drinks next time. They also offer karaoke as well.

Came here on my bday. Diego was our server- He was very pleasant and attentive. The food here never disappoints and the drinks are always good. They typically have a guest performer/ karaoke which is good entertainment but can be bit too loud during conversations. Overall the staff is kind and courteous.

We stopped here for dinner on our way back from vacation. The atmosphere/vibe of the place is amazing and our waitress, Silvia, was great. Super friendly and very attentive. We shared the queso fundido with chorizo as an appetizer, and shared the molcajete for our meal. The food was tremendous and the portion size was very big. For those who like chips and salsa be aware that the salsa is a little spicier than your average Mexican restaurant but it was very tasty as well. I would definitely recommend stopping here.

We walked into a vibe, not just a restaurant. This service was outstanding. The food delicious (and quick!, It was at our table within a minutes). But today I have to talk about the vibe because the vibe here was incredible. In their early part of the evening, there were many families and I’m sure the kids enjoyed the art just as much as I did. There was so much to see in every corner. The DJ played great music the entire night. I love how they put the car prop in front of the screen for the DJ booth because it makes for a good scene with the background videos. I wish the lighting was different so I could’ve taken more pictures of the food, but take my word for it. It was delicious.!

It was a good experience. The apps were my favorite item and the drinks. My steak was tough. The red snapper was pretty good and a large portion. I found it a little pricey. The decor alone is an experience. The service was okay for a slow night.

We just happened upon this place. Took sooo many pics. Had lunch w the kids. Would like to return on a scheduled event night 🌙 or for a date night. Looks like it'd be so much fun.

Our service was absolutely terrible! It wasn't busy at all. Pretty sure this place is more hype and Instagram Pic worthy. Food was ok. Drinks good but expensive.

Neal Wilkinson

Mediocre at best. The cheese dip sucks. Service was slow for the small number of customers. The chicken in the fajitas was not fully cut through so there were just lumpy mangled large pieces of chicken. Probably should have spent as much time working on the menu and recipes as they did on the decorations (which were fun-ish). No need for me to go back here. There are better choices. Also you get about 2 tablespoons of salsa for the entire table so there’s that.

BEWARE OF HIDDEN FEES! I really wanted to like this place because the atmosphere is great, but the experience was disappointing. Our server (Silvia) had an attitude, the food was dry, and everything was extremely overpriced. My bill for two people came out to $300, which is outrageous.. especially considering they charge extra for things like meat on tacos. To make matters worse, they automatically added a 20% tip to the bill without mentioning it, then still asked for an additional tip. When I noticed and asked for it to be removed, the server said she would, but never did. I also don’t recommend the Coco Un Loco drink. It tasted like plain milk and made both of us feel nauseous. The only positive part of the experience was when I called the manager the next day. He was kind, understanding, and issued a partial refund. Overall, the atmosphere can’t make up for the poor service, hidden charges, and disappointing food. Definitely not worth the price.

We are 8 people the food arrive late and the cesina was dry which made it hard to eat and the chicken felt dry. The chicken nuggets at McDonald’s would be so much better. The semitas were mostly all bread to.
