The place is honey and welcoming! I'm a regular always getting 1-2 shrimp Baja tacos or crab dip. Reyes is the best bartender! The atmosphere is fun and community driven. Always a good time!

Stopped here on a Saturday afternoon for a quick little appetizer and drink with a couple of friends. There was plenty of parking and we were seated immediately. I ordered the crab dip and my friends had the appetizer platter with the wings, nachos, quesadillas and I believe toquitos . Everything was pretty good but the crab dip had a pungent crab taste that didn't really agree with my tastebuds, But it wasn't nasty, Just wasn't my preference. The bartender made the wrong drink twice, however the waitress resolved the problem quickly. My waitress was really sweet and kind. The place wasn't too crowded for a Saturday, I'm gonna give it another visit at night to check out the night time vibes.

I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews because I know restaurants work hard, and I do want to start with the positives because there were definitely some. The staff was amazing. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout the night. The food was good, not necessarily memorable, but solid overall. I also tried a cocktail that was just okay. Now for the part that completely changed the experience for us. We visited on a Thursday night and had no idea it was karaoke night (possibly ladies night as well). I really wish that had been communicated before we were seated because the atmosphere was very different from what you'd expect at a family Mexican restaurant around 7:30 on a Thursday evening. The music was already extremely loud, giving more of a club/lounge vibe, but once karaoke started, things took a turn. Multiple participants chose songs filled with profanity and explicit lyrics. One performer even sang "My Neck, My Back" word for word, uncensored, over the microphone while families and children were actively sitting and eating nearby. That's where the issue really comes in for me. I'm all for adults having fun and restaurants creating entertainment nights, but there has to be some consideration for the environment and audience. This is still a family restaurant, and there were plenty of children present. It just felt wildly inappropriate for that setting and time of night. Even when the DJ finally asked the participants to be respectful they continued with the language and sexual content. Had we known beforehand, we probably would have chosen another night to visit. Management may want to reconsider how karaoke nights are handled, whether that means giving guests a heads up before seating, limiting explicit music, or making those nights adults-only after a certain hour. I'm sharing this simply so other families know what to expect because unfortunately, no one told us.

I came to Fiesta Cancun expecting a quick bite and left wondering why I had not been here sooner. From the moment you walk in, the energy hits you. It is colorful, lively, and feels like a place that actually wants you there--not just another restaurant turning tables. That alone sets the tone. Let's talk drinks first--because they deserve it. The margaritas are not an afterthought. They are strong, well-balanced, and taste like someone behind the bar understands what they are doing. Not overly sweet, not watered down--just right. Food-wise, everything came out hot and full of flavor. You know that moment when a plate hits the table and you can already tell it is about to be good? That. Whether it was the seasoning, the portions, or just the overall freshness, it did not feel like anything was rushed or phoned in. And let me give you a real tip--always ask for a bigger table. There were five of us, and the amount of food that came out? We needed the space. This is not a "small plates, cute portions" kind of place. They show up for real. And I have to say--service matters to me, especially after some recent experiences elsewhere. Here, I did not have to flag anyone down. We were checked on, taken care of, and actually seen as guests. That should be standard, but clearly it is not everywhere--so it stood out. I literally have nothing bad to say. This is one of those places that gets added to the rotation immediately.

This is the hottest spot in Waldorf! Your taste buds will always be satisfied. This Mexican restaurant knows how to make a salad. They deliver every time. Ceasar salad w/ grilled chicken and shrimp. My husband ordered Baja Shrimp Tacos. The staff is fantastic. Super personable and friendly. Live music, tasty food, great service. Impossible to be any better. ​

Enjoyed our ladies lunch today! A lil on the pricey side ($150+ total/$60 per person split 3 ways, including tip). Our fault for not wanting to venture out for their weekday happy hour which, according to their menu, totally looks like it's ALL of that and then some! The biggest complaint for me is the $4 extra charge for sour cream and pico de gallo. I mean the food is better than Taco Bell and clearly we cannot get Margaritas at Taco Bell but the state of surcharges is just diabolical! *Sigh* Today, our steak quesadilla, chicken burrito, birria and shrimp tacos, AND our Margaritas were worth a repeat visit. Savory and tender. Huge portions and pretty tasty. The calamari (fried too hard) and crab dip (unidentified seasoning) ... declared not so much of a fan fav. Service was a lil inconsistent ... food came out quickly but drinks and overall server follow up were a lil on the slow/borderline neglect side. This used to be an Applebee's. Sadly, not much was done to revamp the aesthetics. (Not a deal breaker ... just an observation.) Looking forward to hearing YOUR opinion ... especially with a Happy Hour update. When you do, tell them you saw it in Yelp.

When do you review an Applebee's? When it closes and now it's one of my favorite Tex-Mex restaurants.. Period!! Lol Fiesta Cancun is the perfect place to enjoy all of your Mexican favorites and even some American classics! To date, I've had the Ribeye, crab dip and calamari, which were all GREAT, especially the crab dip! My Mexican favs have been the house made guacamole, shrimp enchiladas, and shrimp tacos, which have all been top notch! The drinks are reasonably priced and always made to perfection! On the weekends, there's always a DJ spinning current and old school classics and rap which definitely makes us want to stay and order one more drink..LOL Fiesta Cancun is just a good time and will put you in a great mood, so definitely come and support and keep this former Applebee's in business!! :))

My friend and I were trying to find something to do on a Friday night. I tried this restaurant when it first took over the former Applebees years ago. I didn't really like it. I'm not sure why but here I am trying it again years later and I love it. Service was great and the waiter had plenty of patience when it came to my picky partner. I love a good sizzling fajita. The food came out a little slow but it was hot and good. The bar was packed I can tell it's a local favorite. I'll come again.

Every Tuesday, at the bar, sipping mimosas and eating the best chips and salsa in Charles county, THIS is where you find me !! This place is packed on Tuesdays, so you have to come early. I try to get a seat at the bar, so I can enjoy a couple cocktails for our place in order to go. Hands-down, the chorizo tacos are the best! If you don't want the taco special, definitely get the fajitas. But I am here almost every Tuesday. The DJ even plays line dancing songs to keep the crowd grooving

Was in the area and waited to try some Mexican food. Walked in and was immediately greeted and seated. The atmosphere was cool and the staff were friendly. The waitress recommended the lunch specials. The food came quickly and was amazing. I got the taco platter and my wife ordered the chicken enchiladas. Would recommend and would visit again.

I popped in for the first time last week to find out why the parking lot stays packed. The vibe was festive. They lean into Taco Tuesday with a DJ spinning before karaoke, drink & food specials including $2 tacos. I appreciate them offering both American & Mexican cuisines plus a kids menu. We enjoyed drinks, chips, salsa, & guac while our food was being prepared. Our server was personable & attentive despite the crowd. I ordered the shrimp fajita which was good. Thursdays are Ladies Night. Come if you're ready to be social. Their karaoke doesn't seem like a low key open mic night like MGM- Taps. Lots of fun!

Me and my friend went here for a taco Tuesday and it was very delicious. The salsa very tangy and has the right amount of spice also on Tuesdays they do two dollar tacos. I had two beef with the fixings on the side and they were great as well to top it off. I had a cocktail.

We decided to patronize this new restaurant on an early evening weekday. It was very lively in here and the staff was fiercely moving about. We were greeted and seated immediately and given chips and salsa after arrival to our table. We hadn't been here before but as with most Mexican American restaurants, we pretty much always know what we're getting. I was however conflicted on what cocktail to get after being presented with their extensive drink menu so I consulted with our waitress and she helped. For our meals, I got a Birria pizza that came with pickled onions, some cucumbers, radish I believe and a bunch of sauces. My husband got a fajita mixed grill with shrimp, chicken and steak and all the accompanying sides like rice and beans. Presentation to the table was beautiful. The food smelled so good. Our eyes and noses were full way before our stomachs were. In short the food was amazing. It was full of robust flavors and cooked very well. The meats were tender, the sauces were fresh and had a bit of spice and they added to the meals so well. We shared our meals as we typically do and we both were definitely equally impressed. The only part of the meal that didn't impress was the rice and beans. We never really expected them to be mind blowing but with a meal this good we were kind of surprised that they missed the mark by so much. They were not enjoyable at all. The waitress was attentive, the patrons were enjoying themselves and a lot of them engaged us to find out how the Birria pizza was. Im telling you it was a thing of beauty and so so so good. It certainly grabbed and commanded all the attention. My husband and I can't wait to return. This was a fantastic time!
