LA Fiesta was just as stated in the prior reviews. Just passing through, but access was easy from I-75; food was excellent; very reasonably priced; and lunch service was fast.

I give this place 4 stars . I was surprised to find that the buffet food was actually the same stuff you would order off the menu. The chili rellenos was great, and the camarones el Diablo ( spicy shrimp) was really good too.. Fresh shrimp not old and fishy tasting. Even the bean and rice were good . Although the the beans were a little watery. I really liked everything, toquitos, empadas... Ect. And they had deserts and ice cream too, all for $9.99 not a bad deal at all,

Clean, good service and very yummy. I was surprised because the sign on the interstate didn't instill confidence. I would recommend this place to my friends.

Very good food. We were traveling and looking for Mexican. This was easily accessible right from I 75. Service was exceptional and the food was as well. Great menu and reasonable prices. They even have burgers! The decor is really fun on there and it was a fun place to take our kids. Definitely would recommend.

Food was ok but we were so disappointed they only had beer it ruined the experience. All we wanted was a margarita. Nothing special.

We stopped in after a long day on the road. Service was prompt and very friendly. The food was excellent, traditional Mexican fare. Portions were generous. The only slight negative is they don't have a bar so the Margherita was from a bottle. To the waiter's credit he warned my wife of that before finalizing her order. Overall it was a very nice stop on Hwy 75.

This was a lucky find. This place is really nice, clean, with good food, and generous portions. Mind you the food may not be what some would call authentic, it seems to be adapted to local tastes; but the carnitas was seasoned nicely, and roasted to a perfect fork tenderness. The servers were spot on and the place was doing a good local trade. A good place to stop.

This is a pretty good little Mexican restaurant. The place is clean and the amosphere is family friendly. The workers are clean, polite, and speak English. Dinner prices are reasonable ($7-$15) and there are lunch specials but the lunch specials are normal Mexican restaurant fare. Not a bad place to eat - especially for this exit off the interstate. They have a Sunday lunch buffet that I've heard is good but I've not been there for that.

This is my favorite restaurant in Lake City, by a landslide! The service is excellent, the food is always hot and yummy! My favorites are the chile rellenos, tacos, fajitas, and the fiesta dip. If you're not in the mood for Mexican, their burgers and fries are great as well. They'll even put guacamole and queso blanco on your burger.

This is a really good place to eat and a great value. It's very clean, and he staff is always courteous and gets my order right. The food might not be the best ever, but it's very good, reasonably priced and served quickly and hot. I wish the selection of beer on tap was a little better, but that's not a deal breaker. Worth a try if you find yourself in Lake City.

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.
