Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

I would give a 3&1/2 stars because the service is really good. Decent food, but the beef is really lacking in flavor IMHO. I've been here a few times because its convenient in Athens and good for the most part, but it could be better. Most recently I had the chicken taco salad. It's quite a large size, but I found two bone pieces in the dish and I couldn't eat the rest. I've had a couple of beef burrito plates on previous visits with my husband, and I think that's where they are lacking seasoning the most. The brownie/ice cream dessert is really good and big enough to share. Oh, and this is an ancient building, so if you're seated in the middle to back of the dining room, your phone signal is going to be weak to none. No Wi-Fi.

Headed to Indiana from The gulf coast and we suddenly had the urge for Mexican. We found this little place in a strip mall. Don't let the outside fool you, this place is amazing! I got the floutas verde and they were the best I've gotten from a restaurant. They cook with a lot of cheese to make it flavorful and creamy. It made all the difference to me, but be warned if you aren't a cheese fan. The rice and beans were so very flavorful which is something a lot of other places miss. I'm a tough critic when it comes to Mexican food, so giving this 4 star rating should carry a little weight. If you're in Athens Alabama and want some zesty Mexican try this place.

My husband and I come here at least every couple of weeks. We've eaten Mexican food all over Athens, but this is our favorite and go to spot. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The beef/chicken fajitas are the best! They never disappoint. It is such a generous portion that we order one with extra side of tortillas and split it. We leave stuffed and it is easy on the wallet!

The prospect of Mexican food in Athens, Alabama, did not seem promising. The downscale shopping center one block from the elevated railroad tracks also did not augur well. All signs and portents, however, do not predict accurately. The interior was nondescript aside from the parachute-gripping clown dolls hanging from the ceiling fans, presumably to justify the "Fiesta" part of the restaurant name. The menu was large, and the seemingly requisite "Speedy Gonzales" plate available. I opted for a "Chimichanga Loca" that promised the choice of beef or chicken, jalapenos, and chorizo. Spicy? Chorizo? I was down with that! And they delivered, for the most part. The 'guacamole salad' was chopped iceberg with a handful of white cheeze and an unappetizing lump of one-day-past-good guacamole that I left untouched. When I return, I will ask for arroz instead of the unappealing 'salad'. The chimichanga was big and awash in melted cheese. As I cut into it, I was VERY pleasantly surprised. Having eaten in Austin, Harlingen, Houston, Odessa, Midland, Dallas, Ft. Worth, San Antonio, and Galveston, I know good chorizo when I taste it. The biste was nicely cooked with a crunchy edge, the jalapenos were fresh-cut and not pickled, the chorizo frisky with flavor not overwhelmed by the heat. It was LACED with onions, something I would rectify on another visit, but it was darned good Mexican cooking in an area one would not expect in Athens. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and I found the inability of much of the staff to speak English to be somehow reassuring and endearing. When I next visit fam here, we will return.

Our friends from Atlanta always want to go here for "real Mexican food." He is from Texas and says their food is about as good as it gets. Lunch specials are very cheap. Staff is caring and eager to please.
