Fiesta has very good nachos, but need to marinate their pork more so the "Al Pastor" street tacos are soft, tender and very tasty - my portion was a little tough even though the chopped grilled pineapple was good.

Our table ordered : Chrriopollo - was best I've had in metro Chicken enchilada- feedback was very good Watermelon margarita - could tell was fresh not syrup One additional observation was the meal wasn't dripping in cheese / sour cream / slop like many metro Mexican restaurant rather the flavors spoke for themselves Overall Toro Loco will be in our rotation for future stops.

Ambiance: Inside it feels a little crowded with the table I sat at close to the door and the checkout counter. There is more space in the back. Service: The service was good, replacing the chips and ensuring the water was refilled. Food: The chips and salsa were good. The chips are not too salty and the salsa is mild. The queso is one of the best I've had with a light consistency. For an entree I had beef nachos which were ok but I prefer more queso. Parking: There is plenty of parking. I'll definitely be back to try another menu item.

We seated ourselves and were greeted and served in a timely manner. After being served we were checked on a few times but once our plates were empty, we waited a bit before getting the check. For such low lunch prices, it cost us only a little more than if we would have eaten fast-food. Another plus of the location is that we were able to top off our tanks at the gas station that shares a parking lot with the restaurant.

Small shop on the edge of Clive/Urbandale. Fast food…read moreMexican and it was ok. Not bad but not my favorite. Visited after a friend spoke highly of it. Had the carna asada tacos with guacamole, and ordered some beef enchiladas with queso on top. Guacamole did not have any flavor. Carne asada didn't taste like carne asada I was used to. It tasted more of a roasted and chopped up birria meat flavor. Every taco shop is different and have their own flavor. This place is not my flavor. Queso on enchiladas was a little bland too. I did enjoy the guacamole salsa that is packable at their sauce counter. Total was $31.xx. Tap to pay was accepted. Quiet shop during the dinner rush. Lots of to-go orders coming into shop. Space heaters were lined up around booths. It was not cold in there not sure why there were space heaters around. Ambiance was very outdated. Booths and chairs were very worn.

I wasn't wowed until I sat down, and then now...POW, some of the best food I have enjoyed here in DSM. First, great customer service throughout, as our server was impeccably good. My first visit was for lunch, and I thoroughly enjoyed empanadas, Papa Serrana, and other items. It was delicious, unique, and superb. That prompted a second visit, this time for dinner. I loved the Homado Con Mote, spectacular flavor with pork, white corn, rice, and potato. It was sensational. So much taste, such great options. The interior is not flashy, but it doesn't have to be, as the food quality, unique menu, and excellent customer service pushed the bar extremely high and maintained it.

The cheese ones with a sprinkle of sugar, as recommended, was definitely my favorite! I enjoyed the beef one and did not care as much for the chicken one. I asked the waiter what I should get as I was torn. Of course I don't recall what it was, but I enjoyed it. I'm not usually a plantains person, but I really enjoyed them with this dish. It was very filling and flavorful. My husband ordered a spicy dish and enjoyed it as well. Our waiter did a great job with our large group. He was friendly and provided a ton of recommendations we were all happy with. The bathrooms were clean, as was the rest of the restaurant. I will go back, especially for the cheese empanadas.
