    62. Seafood Chipotle (I think).
    Mary Lynn J.

    Food as always was excellent. The waitress was very friendly and patient. The restaurant was clean, including the restrooms. However, $9 for a kid's hotdog that looked old and shriveled is a little excessive. Fortunately, the 5 year old didn't care.

    Everything displayed here conforms to stereotypes, and I'm guessing it's a spokesperson or some kind of publicity for Cuervo (Gold)

    Eating in NEO exurbia - 1 of 2 Most people have imagery of Mexican restaurants in their heads before they go. It's going to be stucco on the outside, appear dimmed down on the inside, have nooks and crannies, and feature gaudy wall art. This Mexican restaurant - Fiesta Jalapeños - isn't much at all like that and that's part of the reason I like it. I went in with a good friend who lives one community over, where it's more of a corporate suburb. Fiesta Jalapeños is right over the county line to the west, where intermittent cornfields eventually begin to appear. It sits in a medium sized strip mall with some typical chain tenants and takes up a big spot on its end. I had a combination platter and my friend had several enchiladas. Their chips, which are good, keep coming and, for me, their salsa is just right. I liked all the items in my combination, but my friend who is native to this area was more critical of the food. This is my review, so it's going to reflect my point of view. The service was very amicable, the prices were right, and, with it being fairly crowded, they periodically checked in on us. I took note that they had lunch specials served within a window of time and which differ by each day of the week. I noticed that, on Thursdays, they had an enchilada-burrito or something similar, so I went back. The lunch price made for a good value. I really liked this filling dish and all its ingredients, which were robust in flavor. I added a soft drink to this and it was an excellent lunch. It goes without saying that they have a Taco Tuesday, so I also made a trip for that. So far, it's probably sounding like 4 stars, but I'll continue. Because it's in a strip mall that has a higher roof, they left the structure exposed and took the ceiling up higher. There are big windows all around. This is probably the airiest Mexican restaurant I've ever visited. To one side, there is a bar and a slightly different crowd (dudes and dudettes) will go in there to drink, take their meals at pub height, socialize, and/or watch televised sports. They have an outdoor terrace at their disposal, which is attached to the bar and visible from the parking lot. With all the main items dialed, their inviting interior takes Fiesta Jalapeños up to 5 stars. There are a few things to note. First and foremost, if a combination is featured with certain ingredients or it's Taco Tuesday, it will have those ingredients. If it isn't specific, it may default to ground beef. I would have difficulty eating Mexican food in its large "envelopes" that would be filled with ground beef, so you need to specify which filling you want. Second, they have a lot of imagery of Cantinflas. This is a Hispanic actor/comedian of yesteryear who went by one name, sort of like Charo. My childhood friend's Cuban father would laugh and say, "Ay, si, Cantinflas." I guess you had to be there. Lastly, with the change of a zip code and crossing the county line, you've moved into a very different area. This metro area spreads east-west along Lake Erie without too much southerly critical mass and, in the process, goes from the undulating topography of the top end of Appalachia in the east to fairly true to form Midwest, and cornfields, as you go to the west. I was told that some locals call this area North Ridgetucky, just like L.A.'s 909 suburb of Fontana is jokingly known as Fontucky. One doesn't need to take a poll to get an accurate feel for the political leanings of the patronage out this way and I probably would not want to break bread with them (nor they with me), let alone give them a "high 5," but I would to the restaurant and its crew. I recommend Fiesta Jalapeños highly. It should at least be a 4 for most folks, but, depending on what you order and prioritize in a Mexican restaurant, it could be a 5 for you as well.

    Absolutely love this place! The service never fails and the food is always fantastic!! The patio is also super cozy and dog friendly!

    Hot and spicy like me and my personality. The food, drinks, and service was more than hot and full of flavors. The unique flavors of everything will bring you in for more especially for taco Tuesday's! Thank you.

    Updated decorations and menu but the margarita is still awesome. Our server was great and attentive. New paint jobs, furniture and menus. The food and margaritas were fantastic.

    An oldie but a goodie right off West 117th...huge bar area, private parking lot and authentic family run Mexican. It's a west side staple worth trying or to keep coming back to. I can't help it but I tend to order one if two items, the huevos rancheros are delicious, and comforting with chips and salsa. Make sure you order a pitcher of house margaritas, not too sweet with a generous amount of tequila. The wait staff is friendly and accommodating, the food is consistently great and it's great for a crowd or two people sharing a booth...nice I want Fiesta Jalapeños.

    Bueno! Bueno! Bueno! Haven't been to Fiesta Jalapeños in a while. Me and kiddo's decided to hit up Fiesta Jalapeños as our backup for the evening, and thank God we did because, they did not disappoint. Upon entering the restaurant I noticed that they had remodeled the inside and it looked very modern, clean and had a relaxing vibe to it. We were seated right away. Our waiter brought us out water and fresh made tortilla chips and salsa, right away. We ordered our a couple of appetizers ( Fresh Guacamole and Nacho's w/chicken) everybody dove right in (didn't give me a chance to take any pics) but they were good portions and the Guacamole was one the best I've had. We placed our orders and our entree's came out open hot and in a timely manner. I'll tell you the portions were HUGEMUNGUS! And WOOOOOOOOO! Deeeeelicioius. Myself I got the #39 Enchiladas Rancheras, (chicken) they were delicious, I kindve felt the chicken could've used some seasoning, but over all were very good when adding the guacamole and other sides. But I'll tell ya, the #128 Burrito Azteca and the #43 Fajitas De La Casa is where it's at ( the kids choices) they were big and smelled delicious. There was an abundance of meat, peppers and onions. Next time I will be trying one those (if not both ) . The #87 Fajita Taco Salad also was well portioned my daughter didn't was anytime crushing it ( I was impressed). So if you're feeling like Mexican and want to get some great food and plenty of it, head over to Fiesta Jalapeños and have a great experience. I know it won't be our backup choice next time, but our first choice.

    Has anyone noticed the menu is identical to the chain Si Senior?

    Same ownership. Fiesta was Rogelio’s first restaurant but he started to build a brand around Si Senor, so there are a couple of that brand out there.

The cocktail program is easily the highlight here. Their Margarita Flight is a fun, photo-worthy experience (it actually arrives presented on a wooden plane!), and the Trio Margarita--layered with Blue Curaçao and raspberry--was rich, fruity, and well-mixed.  Food-wise, they start you off with complimentary chips and salsa. We kicked things off with the Birria Nachos, which came out in a huge portion piled high with savory, well-seasoned meat. For my main dish, I had the Ohio State Burrito. It was packed with flavor, thoroughly cooked, and topped with plenty of cheese sauce and toppings.  Everything came out quickly, and the service stayed consistent throughout our meal. While Mexican food isn't typically my top favorite cuisine, Don Tequila stands out for its high quality, creative bar offerings, and stellar hospitality. We'll certainly be returning for more drinks and to sample other items on their varied menu!

    This place is ah mazing! The food is flavorful and filling. Service was great. Drinks are awesome…read more I can't say enough about this restaurant. The salsa was so flavorful, it has a great fresh cilantro taste that gives it enough spice and zing. The OH State burrito so yummy chorizo steak and chicken and BACON! Yum! I love the blue turquoise walls in the place. They add to to ambiance. Thanks for a wonderful meal and drink. I will be back to this establishment for sure!
