Took a drive to Vegas for lunch as it had been years since I had been there. Googled this place as I like to patronize mom and pop restaurants. Restaurant was fairly busy upon our arrival but we were seated immediately. We ordered chips and salsa (which were not complimentary) to start off. My mom and BFF ordered the chile rellenos plate and I ordered a Navajo taco with Xmas (red and green chile). Food was ok, both mom and I enjoyed our plates. I found the green chile was spicier than the red, but the red had more flavor. My friend did not like his plate at all as he thought it was terrible. The salsa was very mild and lacked flavor, but the chips were good and they give you plenty of them. Also, I did not like how they served the entrees on paper plates and your drinks in red Dixie plastic cups. I feel that's fine if you are ordering fast food or eating outside at a taco truck/stand but not at a sit-down restaurant. I will definitely not be back, only because I don't live in the area, but if I did I might order take out. read more

La Fiesta Restaurant - Navajo Taco - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, New Mexico

Only had their breakfast so far but it was fairly good. I had the fiesta omelette Christmas style and it was good and I liked both their red and green sauce. The hash browns were ok. They forgot to bring us our sopapilla at first but we asked for it and they brought it out shortly warm and with honey and it was excellent. Nothing was outstanding but nothing was bad but I felt their prices were very fair for what you got. I would eat here again. read more

A local friend lifted up the Burnt Tacos as a Las Vegas must try. After looking at The Hillcrest, El Rialto, Kocina de Raphael, and El Sombrero we decided La Fiesta had the best price and look. We were not disappointed! Food was made quickly, corn tortillas were fresh, and our first ever burnt tacos were just right. My wife and I disagreed bout which chili was the best. I favored the green and she the red. Definitely burst your Burnt Taco Cherry here first. read more

The food was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was great! I would definitely take a special drive again just to eat there!

We ordered the most simple order on the planet: 2 bean and cheese tacos.. (two flour tortillas with beans and cheese) how difficult can that be? first of all, The cashier was extremely unprofessional and unhelpful. She told me and my fiancé that it would be "cheaper" to purchase a PLATE than to purchase the tacos itself. She put our order down for two bean and cheese taco PLATES, with a total of SIX tacos. Why the h*ll would you have us order two plates when all we came in for was two tacos? Our total came out to $17. Ridiculous when tacos by itself are at most $3-4 each. The cashier brought out our plates & they were just disgusting. Fried, covered in grease & nothing close to what we wanted. Me and My fiancé are not the type to complain when it comes to food but we took ONE bite and we couldn't even swallow. We had to address the issue. We brought the food back to the cashier and told her this isn't what we ordered. She just looked at this other older woman, who I'm guessing was the owner or manager considering they were sitting on their phones like they had nothing better to do and said to us "you're going to have to repay to get new tacos because we can't resell the ones you have". I have NEVER been to restaurant where they were not only UNWILLING to make the CORRECT order but would CHARGE us AGAIN if they did so? We weren't asking for a refund, we were asking for the RIGHT order. We just threw the food away. Terrible service. I DO NOT recommend to anybody. we are from Texas, so our expectations might just be from southern hospitality but even then, as a BUSINESS, your customers satisfaction is what pays YOUR business! read more

I grew up eating this food. It tastes like home. I love the burgers, tacos, quesadillas, and fresh cut fries!

We ordered to go on a road trip and the food was very good, big portions of delicious food. That's all there is to it :)

:: I usually try to base my reviews on the food as opposed to the staff, but today I'm too frustrated to play nice. We tried a literal ten times to call and place a to go order and sometimes we got a voicemail and sometimes it seemed like we were hung up on. I drove over to place my order in person and they literally locked the door in my face even though according to their new hours they should still be open for 45 minutes. I liked their food, and I understand that these are tough times, but I do expect to be treated at least politely if I'm going to give them my business. read more

Food is eh. I got brought the wrong plate then when the correct one was brought the waiter poked my food. Don't get me wrong the people there are very nice BUT it's just not the best place to stop for Mexican food! read more

The last couple time i have eaten here have been disappointing. The food mashed potatoes were tasteless and sticky you could tell they were not made fresh they were the ass water powder type. The Blt was horrible and i wondered how can you possibly mess up a blt. But they did. Today i ordered breakfast to go, we had buscuits and gravy which was tasteless and the hashbrowns were again sticky and tasteless. Ill avoid dining here again... read more

Great place service is great food is great and the workers are very helpful the owners are the the coolest people I have been to restaurants and the owners aren't always nice but la fiesta is different love this place only play I every eat at when in Las Vegas, NM so many different options for food too!! read more

Probably the worst tacos I have ever had and I have had plenty. I may be just passing through but I know tacos as I have lived in AZ for 60+ years. Should have known the food was questionable as only 2 cars in lot. Place also needs a through cleaning and wait staff that know how to serve. read more

I gave this place two stars based on the lack of customer service and general employee incompetence. There were 3 of us for lunch today - Saturday 1/28/23. This normally packed establishment wasn't busy. We were promptly seated and drinks brought out quickly. Our food order was quickly taken. However, the waiter kept coming back to ask the specifics of what each plate should be (red or green Chile, beef or chicken , etc) after he took the order. Obviously he didn't do a good job of taking the order. The food arrived promptly. Overall the food was good. Except the sopapillas, they were rubbery and just warmed up - not fresh. The waiter left the hand written check at the table immediately after dropping off the food. He misspelled most of the check (no wonder he kept coming back asking questions). When it was time to pay, I ran my credit card. The screen warned of a convenience fee. I asked about this and the lady at the register stated it would not charge my card the fee. She lied. When I got back the receipt, my card was in fact charged a convenience fee. I asked to speak to a manager and the manager had no resolution. The employees here are either extremely new and haven't been trained or just really bad at their jobs. Also, if an establishment has a convenience fee for credit cards, have a sign on the door or at least warn the customers before they order. Terrible customer service. Never again. read more

The service and atmosphere was good. It felt rustic on the inside. The menu had a nice variety and choices of side dishes. I had the shredded beef tacos. The meat on the tacos was tender but a little bland. read more

Amazing Food and extremely friendly atmosphere. The wait staff is very kind and I didn't have to long to get my food. This restaurant has some of the best New Mexican food in the city, and by far the best salsa and tacos I have had. The Carne Adovada is very good. Strongly recommend! read more

I live in Las Vegas, but today was my first trip to La Fiesta. The carne adovada was excellent, probably the best I've had in town. The service was good. The environment was homey. read more

This was absolutely the worst place I have eaten in a long time. We waited 15 minutes just to get someone to even recognize us standing at the front door to be seated. Then we were seated and it took another 15 minutes for a waitress to come to our table. We ordered our drinks and asked for chips and salsa. That took another 15 minutes. We ordered our food and it took at least 1 hour to get our food and it was all cold and tasted terrible. There were 5 people in our group. She delivered 3 plates. Said she would be back with the rest. We asked for silverware. She finally brought the other 2 meals by that time the other 3 meals were cold and we had no silverware to eat. ALL of our food was cold. The waitress would disappear for a long period of time. We had to ask for our drinks to be refilled. WE WILL NEVER GO BACK TO TH IS PLACE AGAIN. read more

Excellent service & the carne adovada tacos were amazing! I would definitely recommend this place! The building itself has history.

The restaurant was 'ok' in all aspects. There was nothing wrong with the place, but nothing that stood out as great either. Fairly large menu selection - I got the cheese enchiladas - but mediocre quality. There were only 2 other couples there when we went and the waitress was in the kitchen. Had to wait almost 10 minutes for her to come out so we could pay the bill. read more

its a great meal on a budget. i usually get a beef quesadilla but i decided to try the fajitas and they were amazing! there tacos are not bad either. read more
