Absolutely love this Mexican restaurant. It certainly rivals the local chain (La Carreta) and…read morepersonally I prefer it. At first glance, it seems like a hole in the wall establishment but the portions are huge, price is great and food is super tasty. My friends and I eat there regularly and have yet to be served something that was sub par. They bring chips and salsa to every table for no charge, the service is super nice and you get your food very quickly. Some of our favorites are their guacamole and queso, their steak fajitas and the fajita nachos. They also have great mixed drinks and a different beer special every day of the week. Definitely my favorite Mexican spot in town

One thing Lynchburg, Virginia, isn't hurting for is Mexican food, and Fiesta Tapatia is just one of…read morethe many options in the Lynchburg area. Fiesta Tapatia has all your traditional Mexican fare and a lot of their own unique creations. This was my second visit, and today I got the lunch cheesesteak. One thing I love about this place is that their entrees are always super flavorful and well prepared. The steak on my cheesesteak was just bursting with flavor, and the cheese sauce was creamy and savory. The grilled onions and peppers were perfect as well. The only thing keeping me from giving this restaurant a high score is the fact that the salsa isn't my cup of tea. On my first visit, I panicked because I didn't like the salsa, so I thought I wasn't going to like my meal either, but I was definitely wrong. I ordered the Carne el Charral and steak, shrimp and chorizo were all amazing! The entree was great. I do have to admit that the salsa was better on my second visit but still not my favorite in the Lynchburg area. I will definitely be coming back to the restaurant in the future. The staff is always kind and attentive, and the entrees are always tasty.

First day, I ordered the Arepa Reina Pepiada (avocado, mayo, and chicken-get it fried!) and cheese and chicken empanadas for about $20, including tip. The arepa was so delicious and filling that I couldn't even eat the empanadas until the next day. I was in a hotel and had to microwave them, but they were so good (even microwaved!!) that I knew I needed to go back and eat them fresh to experience their full glory. I did just that, and fresh out the fryer they were amazing! The green sauce in unreal. If I ever find myself back in Lynchburg again, I'm heading here right away!

The two empanadas and one pastele had a nice golden crisp with warm fillings, and the arepa was loaded with food! The drink was very thick and not too sweet, was perfect as someone who likes thick milkshakes (not that it was a milkshake). The green sauce they provide as well with the meals is addicting. Can't wait to keep going!

The "vibe" here reminded me of places in Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas- very welcoming and absolutely no pressure. The waiters were friendly and accomodating. Everyone was having a great time. I ordered fish tacos and they were outstanding, as were the margaritas. The layout of the place, in a circle contributed to the atmosphere. The chips and salsa were good and the guacamole was tasty, My guest and I were very satisfied. Sshe had chicken tacos. Servings were large enough so we took home a taco each. The 20% tip we left was well-earned.

Each server is relaxed and happy to explain things. Children are welcome. They are amused when I order in Spanish. The frozen strawberry margarita is gigantic. My only complaint is the occasional noise level, but the tables are close together and there are lots of people. The intermittent music adds the noise. A lot depends on the day and time you are there.

Prices are what one would expect, no surprises. Liked having three distinct dining zones (outside being one of them) to choose from. The interior not only needs to be decluttered, but repainted; bathrooms need more attention. Up to this point, EM aligns with its peers, however, their FOH staff struggled! They had ample headcount but lacked the necessary skills...shame on their "Leadership". Verdict: fear not, yet maintain lowered expectations or a glass half full point of view.

Between the people hacking away weeds with machetes outside in the crowded parking lot and the indoor space that had no AC and industrial strength fans blowing just to keep people from melting in the summer, and the takeout container they seemed to have burned some holes in, it was on the sketchy side. The food I took was a vegetarian platter. A corn tamale was tasty, but I kind of wished I'd just gotten pupusas and hopefully been able to get some variety. It's a cuisine worth trying, and there is another similarly named outlet in the area so perhaps I might see if that one is in better shape.
