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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Fiesta Cancun - Fajitas 2 meat combination - Bars Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

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. read more

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!! :)) read more

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 read more

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! read more

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! read more

Our typical restaurant of choice is Seafood or American places but the better half picked this for our Saturday night spot. I was surprised that it was packed! There was a wait for a table so we squeezed into the packed bar! Saturday nights are a whole Vibe! Entertaining and fun! Glad we did sit at the bar. It was super fun to people watch. We immediately said, "we have to come back". Let's Get Into It! Chips and Salas - Delicious! Crab Dip - Exceeded Expectations- SO GOOD! Chicken Fajitas - Met Expectations- Yummy! Ribeye - Met Expectations- Yummy! As stated above we knew within minutes we'd be coming back! This restaurant will be in heavy rotation. Cheers! read more

Service was a bit slow but the food was really good. I'd come back again, perhaps ordering fajitas this time.

This restaurant is one of my favorites in the area. Friendly and amazing service from the greeter to the wait staff. The drinks are pretty good and strong and there's a nice selection of beverages to I close non alcoholic bar options. My go to is the carne asada steak which comes with refried beans and rice. The birrias are AMAZING as well. The ambiance has been refreshed since they've opened up this restaurant and it has an authentic Mexican flair. They tend to play good music selections both Spanish music and R&B/ hip hop. I brought my sister here for her birthday, not knowing the wait staff would celebrate her- they sang and allowed her to wear their sombrero! We had a party of 10 so it's great for large sized parties. read more

Taco Tuesday I have been to Fiesta Cancun plenty of times. The most popular night that I have attended is Tuesday. It's popular because they also have Karaoke . With that said, Tuesdays is a bit hectic and crowded. Be ware that it is loud! I arrived a little before 8 PM EST. To my surprise I was seated immediately (party of 1). I don't even attempt to get a seat at the bar because there's never availability and very rarely do I catch a seat as soon as someone is leaving. Unfortunately, the hostess sat me but no waiter/waitress came for a while. I watched plenty pass by me. I even stopped one that was at the table diagnolly from me asking if she could send over the server. That was after waiting 10 minutes. The server replied "Sure, I'll get someone one to come over" No one came. I then saw the table of four across from me be seated. And moments later, chips and salsa arrived for their table. At this point it's been almost 20 minutes. I stopped a different server- Shout-out to Allison! She had her hands full of dishes she was cleaning off but still politely decided to free a hand and take my order. After doing so, I receive the chips and salsa for the table momentarily. The food is good. The Margaritas are large! This is why I keep returning. I am disappointed in the service though. I am not sure if they are short staffed but unless I am seated at the bar (on a slow night) it is a struggle with attentiveness. So, pack your patience if you decide to check this place out. I ordered chicken & steak quesadillas this time (I usually get fajitas). I did ask for extra sour cream and guac. I had to remind or request it again because what was on my plate could not have been the extra. The quesadillas also seemed empty or hallow? I'm not sure but I've had better at their restaurant specifically so I was disappointed. I ordered the Jumbo Fiesta Cadillac margarita and forgot how big it was. I struggled to finish it. Three stars because I've been plenty times but the service needs improvement and I was disappointed in the quesadillas this time around. If I go back, I'll review a different food item. read more

We usually get takeout fajitas and quesadillas from Fiesta Cancun and the food is always prepared well and ready at the time promised. The tables and bar are usually occupied so i just assumed the dine in experience was solid. Recently, we sat at the bar and the vibes were top tier, our drinks were poured great and packed a punch, and I tried the buffalo wings for the first time and thought they were delicious. I'm pretty sure there's a DJ on Thursdays and Saturdays so I'll be back on one of those days next time I'm in the mood for good wings, margaritas, and friendly service. read more

Fiesta Cancun is amazing I come at least once a week the food, vibes, atmosphere is amazing. 10/10 for food and drinks especially when Jessica (JC) is at the bar.

OK, so this is not a "blow-you-out-of-the-water" Mexican restaurant. The food is not outstanding and pales in comparison to any type of Mexican food in California. However, here is what I can tell you: -the service is excellent! My server was very attentive in nature. I had more than everything I needed. -the food is just fine. It's good. I got the enchiladas with salsa verde. It didn't blow my mind, but it was good. You might need to ask for extra sauce. For the price, you get a pretty good portion. -They have Coke products! You really can't trust Mexican restaurants that don't. -They are fast as hell! I came for lunch on a Wednesday, I ordered and my food was out less than five minutes later. It was all super hot and fresh, too. I would recommend it! For a soft drink and enchiladas, plus the bottomless chips and salsa they offer, I paid under $25. I think it was actually like 21. Anyway, worth a try! read more

Aside from the restaurant being cold due to the air being turned up high, as apparent by the waving heritage banners... the food was really good. The customer service was good as well. But do keep in mind that if you plan to order an alcoholic beverage they do card. No exceptions. The first time I went I had ID in the car, so no problem. But the next time I went, I didn't drive and didn't have my license. So, no beverage for me . We ordered the Birria pizza for 2. I had a pink lemonade, and he had the frozen margaritas in the patron bottle. Sadly, the margaritas tasted like my lemonade requiring him to order a shot to add to it. But overall, this is a good place as it relates to service, food and atmosphere. Oh... the first time I went I had the Shrimp and Chicken Fajitas. They were VERY GOOD and plentiful requiring me to wrap them up to go.​ read more

Fiesta Cancun has replaced Mariachis, which replaced Applebees. The setup inside is exactly the same from when it was Applebees, just the name, decorations and I guess owners have changed. I went for taco Tuesday and it was very crowded. I ended up having to share a high-top with another couple. The food and drinks were ok. Not the best but not the worst I've had. What made the night great was they did karaoke and had a $100 prize. The DJ (Hefbeats) was amazing. He used to DJ at Bayou Girl and kept the party going. Overall an enjoyable evening. I would recommend coming on a Tuesday just plan for the crowd accordingly and get there before/by 7 so you have a seat. read more

Usually this place is pretty good. I would not recommend coming on Tuesday which is karaoke night. It's really busy which is no problem but the service is terrible. It took forever to place my food order as they only had 1 bartender for a packed house. When I did get my food it was room temp. I asked for queso and was given cold shredded cheese....The portions are getting smaller and there were no napkins lol. I'd return but on a different day maybe. The people around me complained about their food as well. read more
