Reviews for La Fiesta in Mountain View, CA
I had Grandma's especial enchiladas and the mole enchiladas. The mole enchiladas were a little too sweet for my taste but... Grandma's especial was pretty good. At the salad also with enchilada sauce didn't feel like it had enough chicken onit. Overall it was pretty good Mexican food Read more
I have been visiting regularly for a couple years. Close to downtown Mountain View, walking distance from Castro. Has a really... nice outdoor seating area with umbrellas and heaters to help with the sun/cold. Dog friendly outside. Service is always great,salsa is amazing (nice and spicy!), margaritas come by the glass or the pitcher and there are a ton of options. Never beendisappointed by whatever I've ordered! Read more
Delicious food with even more delicious margaritas! The staff were all very friendly and service was great.
Attractive decor and intelligent service were the outstanding features. My friend and I each have food restrictions, and the... servers were very helpful in meeting our needs. Chile Colorado was tender and flavorful beef in a very tasty red sauce, but theportion seemed small for the price, and the rice, beans, and corn tortillas were just OK, not as good as the beef. Red dippingsalsa with the tortilla chips had a good kick of spice, and the starter cup of chicken broth was a nice touch. Read more
Host was great and attentive. Waiter was ok. Was really looking forward to having the Mole Poblano. Was disappointed in the... serving. 3 pieces of chicken leaves you to desire for more. It was very authentic and had good taste, but not worth the price.Flan was overly sweet and didn't seem from scratch. Read more
A co-worker recommended this restaurant. First time there. There was 5 of us... Salsa was super hot! Chips were too too hard.... Originally, I ordered a Hard Taco and quesadilla combo plate. My quesadilla was not cooked thru and my crispy taco fell apart atfirst bite. That was so Disappointing. They offered to make me something else and suggested "Grandmas enchiladas." It came justas everyone else was done with their food. My mom, got Flautas. Chicken was white meat but dry, very dry and bland. My sisterand her husband got chile verde. It was good to them. My nephew got quesadilla plate. The quesadilla was smothered in quacamoleand he is allergic. They made it over. His plate was quickly fixed with a new quesadilla. Back to my plate... it was ok. Thegrandma sauce was tasty. The chicken was breast but also dry with not much flavor and overall plate was not warm enough. Wasdisappointed to not get a discount even though waiter had said he took off the price of my plate, but that was just the firstplate that I DID NOT Eat. Overall... gave 3 stars since waiter was nice and helpful. Also, the woman (maybe boss / owner) wasfast to help us all be happy. Also the water guy gave us water and soda refills. Read more
It?s definitely just an average restaurant. We went there on a Wednesday night and had to wait for 10 min to be seated. We... ordered the vegetarian salad, Grandma?s Especial, the Enchiladas and guacamole. Well, we didn?t like any of them and theguacamole was certainly overpriced for its portion. Overall the service was average too, we had to wait a long time to get ourcheck and our waiter wasn?t that attentive. I don?t recommend this place and don?t think I would go back anytime soon.

"Grandma's Special" is legit! Must order! There is also decent selection from the kiddo menu ????
