Visited Fiesta Jalapenos for the first time this weekend and can't believe we hadn't been there sooner. Fiesta Jalapenos is... unlike any other Mexican restaurant in Ankeny. They bring a welcomed upscale twist with their decor, margaritas, and attentionto details. Our margaritas where so smooth and had the freshest real fruit. We also enjoyed the street tacos at therecommendation of our amazing server. To top off our visit we got to meet the owner who was so welcoming, and apperceive of ourvisit. We can't wait to go back!

Not your ordinary Mexican restaurant. Fiesta Jalapenos definitely has it's own upscale style and adds plenty of twists to your... typical Mexican fare. Fresh, flavorful ingredients and thoughtful preparation. The street tacos and their specialty tacos aresublime. They even have a dozen (or more) seafood dishes on their already large menu. Oh, and the service is excellent & veryhelpful. What's not to love?! Read more
Wow, great experience Wonderful service, outstanding food and excellent Peach margarita and tequila selections. My sister had... been raving about this place and she took me for my birthday, it did not disappoint. Eagerly awaiting my next visit. Highlyrecommended Read more
I really enjoyed my street tacos and blood orange margarita. The server was very nice and my order came out correct (I requested... no onions). The margarita was a tad sweet for me but that was on me for ordering something outside of my norm. Great experienceoverall - I wish it was closer to home, I'd be here often. Read more
Saw several other reviews out there already for Fiesta Jalapeños in Ankeny so decided to stop by tonight for dinner. We could... definitely tell that it was new, as it still had that new, clean look and feel. It was a bit crowded due to a couple of largeparties there but we were still able to be seated right away. First up was the chips and salsa. Now, I?m not a salsa eatertypically, but I did like this salsa. It was not very cilantro-y and had the tiniest bit of spice. After that we ordered theQueso Fundido appetizer (melted cheese with chorizo). It was pretty good, nothing special. I think that next time we?re justgoing to try the queso on its own to better compare it to other places. For meals I had the Chori Pollo and the mister had theSeafood Enchiladas. Both were pretty good! Nice and hot and fresh. I thought that the Chori Pollo had good flavor but could haveused more queso or sauce as it was a bit dry on its own. I did appreciate that I could get black beans instead of fried beansand I really like how hot (temperature) the flour tortillas came out. Mister said that his was tasty and had a little kick.However, the tortilla had a strange flavor to it (maybe a soft corn tortilla?). He really liked the rice too and said that itwas nice to get rice with some actual flavor to it. All in all, it was an enjoyable experience. The restaurant itself wasreally nice. All the staff was very friendly and personable. We?ll be back to try it again. Read more
