    A margarita
    Shauna S.

    We recently moved to the area and have been on the hunt for a "go-to" Mexican restaurant...we had several disappointing experiences and then we found Cancun's! The food is fantastic, the drinks are great, prices fair and service is friendly & attentive. I also appreciate that the restaurant is clean...seems to be a challenge for others. We love this place!

    Chips and salsa and queso

    Ok. This place is the best. Their Molcajete is legit. Their rice and beans are legit. Their complimentary chips and salsa are legit. Their fajitas are legit. And their rice and beans are legit. And the value per dollar? Just awesome. Pigeon Forge, you have a gem!

    Pollo Jalisco

    Hands down the best Mexican restaurant in the area for the food quality, quality and service! There's a good bit of parking in the back and front and looks like they converted a fast food restaurant into this establishment. We were seated quickly with chips and salsa and waters served right after. After perusing the menu, I went with a taco salad, and my family went with Shrimp fajitas, chicken chimichanga and pollo Jalisco. Our food came within 10min and the portions were huge! My chicken in the taco salad was well seasoned and loved the sauce that it came with. I tried a piece of each of the other dishes which were also super good. If you are visiting Pigeon Forge and craving some authentic Mexican food, definitely come here for a filling meal!

    Steak burrito

    If you're in the area and craving Mexican then stop looking and go here! Stopped in for lunch after hiking and site seeing all day. Parking is in the back.

    Best in the area! Love their birria tacos. The service was good. We will be back. Thank you!

    Lunch steak fajitas and burrito.

    The service and food was great. They make an excellent margarita but even more amazing the price. My friend and I got all that for under $25 including the margarita! We will definitely dine with them again on our next trip.

    Come from Nashville this popped up let me tell you it's not worth it steak was okay and chicken was seasoned well. Guacamole not fresh , salsa bland. The waiter didn't take my kids order right. What kinds meal comes with entree and rice and LETTUCE. I'm not from here but when I come back I will NOT be coming here let me tell you that. Staff was not friendly looked like they didn't want to be there especially the host.

    Love all the color!

    This was a great place to eat when at the Smoky Mountains Small Bore rally! Was an easy enjoyable ride from Townsend and the food was delicious with large portions and friendly wait staff. Full of locals enjoying a birthday party which made us feel super comfortable with trying a new restaurant.

    Fajitas

    The restaurant is decorated very nicely; service was kind and efficient as well! The food was delicious! We always love trying out the fajitas and these had an extra umph that we've not found in Tennessee before! They were seasoned wonderfully and even had tomatoes, which is pretty uncommon. I wish the bell peppers were cooked a little longer so they weren't as firm, but otherwise a delightful meal!

    Best margaritas in town. Food is really good and portions are generous. Ask for hot sauce with chips if you dare.

    I really wanted to enjoy our visit to Cielito Lindo in Pigeon Forge, but unfortunately the customer…read moreservice overshadowed what was otherwise good food. From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were an inconvenience rather than paying customers. The hostess seated us at a table that clearly wasn't large enough for our party, and when we politely asked if we could move to a table that actually fit us, she seemed visibly irritated. That was not a great first impression. Things didn't improve from there. Our waiter, Eliezer, didn't even come to our table to take our order. Instead, he stood over at the kiosk and called out to us asking what we wanted to eat, almost like a hog-calling contest across the restaurant. It honestly felt disrespectful and impersonal. What made it even more frustrating was watching him walk over to other tables and take their orders normally. We couldn't help but wonder why we were treated differently. The food itself was actually very good. The fajitas were flavorful, arrived quickly, and were one of the highlights of the meal. However, when they were served, I wasn't given an extra plate. I had to ask multiple times before one was finally brought over. I wasn't sure if I was expected to assemble my tortillas on my lap. The one bright spot of our visit was Alex, who was bussing tables. He was genuinely kind, attentive, and treated us with respect. His friendliness stood out and was honestly the best part of our experience. Thank you, Alex, for showing us the level of hospitality we expected from the beginning. Great food can only carry a restaurant so far. Service matters, and feeling welcomed matters even more. While the food was flavorful and arrived promptly, the way we were treated left a lasting negative impression. We won't be returning, and I truly hope management addresses the customer service issues because the kitchen is doing its part--the front-of-house staff needs to do theirs.

What really sets Talitas apart is the amazing Honduran flair they bring to their Mexican dishes. Having spent nine years in Tucson and the last two years in East Texas--both places known for outstanding Mexican food--I can honestly say Talitas ranks right up there with the best. The salsa is delicious and comes with two additional house sauces. The green sauce is mild with incredible flavor, while the red sauce definitely brings the heat. If I'm saying it's spicy, you can count on it having a real kick! The fajitas were absolutely fantastic--perfectly cooked, flavorful, and generously portioned. If you're looking for authentic flavors, great service, and a spotless restaurant in Pigeon Forge, Talitas is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!

Well, coffee was not great and you get powdered creamer from Walmart. No chips so maybe that's just me. Their breakfast was meh, base. The quesadilla was good enough. Grading it against itself, its average. Not spicy but enough to k or there is taste. Perhaps that's how the locals like it.
