I ordered grilled chicken and the chicken I was brought had been boiled. The waitress kept saying it wasn't boiled it was grilled. There was no grill marks. The entire place smells old and musky. read more

Fausto's Fiesta Cafe - a hand holding a tortilla - Cafes Near Me - Deridder, Louisiana

This restaurant is an old style, not the kind like all the other modernizing restaurants. Wide variety of foods to pick from and very clean. Flaws are non-existent, as the food was amazing. They do not get so much business which also lowers waiting time. Has takeout and dine in. Highly recommended. read more

We have ate at fausto's in Buna, Texas many times. They have always had excellent food there. The last time we visited there they came to our table and told us they are under new management. When you want authentic Korean food, go to a Korean restaurant. If you want authentic Mexican food, go to a Mexican restaurant. shame on the ones who bash restaurants for serving food that maybe they don't specialize in, you put a bad name to those who log in and first thing they see is a negative comment. read more

It's OK for tex-mex. Nothing to rant and rave about, but nothing bad to say either. Decent food, decent service. read more

Excellent portion sizes. First grilled chicken breast salad I have had where there was as much chicken as there was lettuce. Excellent service. Has hand cut french fries; good selection of grilled items for those avoiding deep fried food. Pepsi soft drinks along with tea & sports bar. Banquet room available. Has excellent handicapped restroom facilities (wide hallway access, wide doors, plenty of space to move within the room). Open 10:30 to 9:30. read more

Fausto's Fiesta Cafe - cars parked in front of the restaurant - Cafes Near Me - Deridder, Louisiana

This place use to be amazing. My girlfriend and I frequented it for years, but now we've given up. It use to be a nice, quiet place to get some great food, but over the years it's really gone down hill. It started when they tried to turn it from a nice Mexican restaurant with an intimate atmosphere to a sports bar, complete with a dozen blaring TV's over your head (makes it worse that half are on Fox News) and a bar in the main dining area. So you & your kids are seated only inches away from drink idiots with foul mouths. Hey, at least your kids will learn some new, inappropriate words. The servers have always been very attentive and friendly, no complaint at all there. The food has gone downhill though, both in terms of quality and portions. They've screwed our order up the last 2 times we've gone there, and both times added something expensive to it like a steak, and instead of apologizing and correcting it, they encouraged my girlfriend to eat the meal she didn't order, still charge us for the expensive item they "accidentally" added to it and graciously knocked off $2 from the bill, which still had the bill higher than what it would have been had they gotten the order correct. To sum it up, the servers are friendly and attentive, the food is okay but not as good as it use to be, your chance of an order screw up is moderate to high, and you should bring ear plugs because you'll be seated either directly under a loud flatscreen or a drunk idiot at the bar. read more

I've been coming here literally all my life, and I still love it. The food is not top qaulity, I won't lie. But the family who owns and works at the place is so kind! I really love them! But I have to be honest, there aren't many other redeeming qualities. The steaks are cheap and flavorless and full of lines of fat. The salads are oddly made of shredded iceberg lettuce and have about three ingredients (cheese, lettuce, tomatoes), if I remember correctly. I've never had the tacos here, but they appear to be fairly good. The country music is obnoxious, too, though. I really would rather listen to Mexican music I can't understand fully. Lol read more

Sugary mixed drinks. Odd Korean dishes on menu that would have first time eaters of these dishes be very confused when they one day eat elsewhere some authentic, delicious Korean food. Mexican food is ok. Service was great but they need better cooks if they want more business. read more

Wasn't terrible. Wasn't great. Shrimp cocktail was not shrimp cocktail. Unless I've been eating it wrong my whole life. Sweet tea was good. We wish we would've just gone to the DQ down the road. read more

This is not authentic mexican food. The flavors taste like it came from a can or was frozen. Certainly not full of spices or any flavor. Only went here once and was so disappointed we never returned. read more

Waitress was very awkward and not very good at her job. Food was way below average, not only did they mess up my order the food was still not tasty. Everything tasted frozen and old. Would not recommend or come again. Very disappointed!! read more

Ate here many years ago and did not have like it. Started coming back because another Mexican restaurant we frequented in town shut for repairs. The food seems ok but I asked for a frozen margarita which they did not have. I got one on the rocks. I was disappointed. It tasted good but there was so much ice that there was no much "drink" at all. The waitress asked if I wanted another but I declined telling her there was too much ice in the last one. When we paid. I looked at the bill and it had a discount of $1.20. I asked her what that was and she told me it was for the second margarita that you didn't want. Wait... Whaaa? Then she tells me it two for one AFTER we leave and have the bill. Then she said to me... you didn't want the second one. I said it had too much ice insinuating that will not pay that kind of money for ice. On top if that they only gave me back 1/4 of the money back. Not 1/2. I sure would have taken the second drink with no ice. Communication! read more

Had lunch at this place. It appeared that teenagers were working as waitresses and tending bar. Drinks were horrible. Never again.
