Excellent experience! Traveling through the area on a road trip and stopped here for dinner. The staff were super friendly and on the ball. The place was very clean and bright but also tastefully decorated in the Mexican style. The food was excellent and. Try large portions. The chimichangas were stuffed full of well seasoned meat. Loved it! read more

Good very authentic, service amazing and the staff very friendly. As soon you enter the door the ambiance was soo nice. read more

Fiesta En Jalisco - Best margaritas - Mexican Near Me - Orofino, Idaho

Good but not amazing food served with friendly efficient service and an impeccably clean interior and kitchen. The cocktails were only 3 stars in my opinion -- the skinny margarita didn't taste very good, not sure why, and the Paloma I had after it wasn't much better. Start by losing the blue salt that they put around the rim which I think is not flavorless. Either do regular salt or none at all. The chips and salsa were fine, The salsa looked a little unusual, cut more coarsely than I'm used to, but it was good. The dinner was solid. I had a combination plate with a crispy taco, tostada, and cheese enchilada. All pretty good and they benefitted from some spice from the bottle of Tapatio sauce on the table. My friend had the arroz con pollo which looked a bit unusual (again, more coarsely cut vegetables and a thinner sauce than I'm used to) but he liked it. Overall, I'd come back anytime I was in Orofino. Though I might get a beer or straight tequila with my meal! read more

My husband and I were in town for a business trip. We tried Fiesta En Jalisco the first night we were in town. The chips and salsa provided were a little disappointing. The chips taste just a little bit sour, like they had been fried in old oil or reheated poorly. The salsa was actually chucks of unidentifiable vegetables in a tomato based liquid. It didn't stop us from eating the chips and salsa provided, but they just weren't the best. My margarita was okay, but nothing notable. When our meals came we were surprised by the portion size! The beans and rice were lovely and both of our meals were very good. My husband got a combination meal, but the choice of protein was confused. He got a chicken taco instead of the beef that he ordered. My Chicken Crema dish was delicious. Too bad that we weren't super hungry because we had to leave a fair amount of food behind because of the portion sizes. I'm sure that the local people appreciate the leftovers for lunch the next day if they choose to eat here for supper. read more

All good! Fast, clean, and the food was great. We ordered the nachos, they were loaded with all. I asked a question about the game on behind me and he quickly turned on to a closer TV. Restrooms were very clean and had fresheners. W read more

My neighbor/ friend from Pierce took a nice mountain drive and stopped in one evening after driving back from Lewiston and I had heard not so good things about the food, well I'm gonna say never listen to what other people say check it out for yourself well,we both had bacon wrapped shrimp and it was very delish the chips and salsa were spot on oh yeah, I know who can mess up chips and salsa. Well the salsa was wonderful and the chips were very fresh and warm when they were brought to our table. The only downside I have on this meal is they need to back off on some of the cheese that was melted over the top of the shrimp and bacon but other than that, everything was good rice beans, all amazing and yes, I would go back again. they have to be doing something right because they were very busy and it was in the evening. and the atmosphere and ambience was exceptional. Very nice to see the workers were happy even heard one singing through out the kitchen Keep up the good food and friendly vibe! read more

Love coming here when I'm in town. The service is always amazing and they're so fast! They also just have the best food!

Service is always excellent, food is delicious and well prepared. Relaxing atmosphere (I like the booths for seating).

For a small town in Northern Idaho this place is great. Food is flavorful and the family serving the meals are quick and helpful. Not something I am going to go out of my way to come back, yet would gladly eat eat again when I am in the area. I was pleasantly surprised how good the food actually was in here. read more

Great little Mexican restaurant with good portion sizes. The waiters were very friendly and fast service. The restaurant did have a strong unpleasant smell, I'm not sure if it was their cleaner of not. The food did need salt, but we had that on the table. All in all good. read more

I ordered the Pollo Jalisco my first time here. The chicken came in a cheese sauce with mushrooms and was excellent. The second time here I ordered chicken fajitas - good flavor just heavier on onions and peppers and less chicken than I expected for the price. The beans and rice are great. Salsa is like pico de gallo mixed with cooked salsa? Overall good and I would recommend. read more

Fantastic ambiance and margaritas to enjoy with our meal - which was also great! I had the beef chimichanga with a frozen strawberry margarita and it was the perfect refreshment in the summer heat. Also, love the sinks in the bathroom and the beautiful wood changing table in the ladies restroom. Classic all the way. The staff was also great! We'll be back! read more

Fast and attentive service, nice atmosphere. I would eat here again when I visit Orofino. There aren't a lot of options in this small town on a Sunday. This place hit the spot for my husband and myself. Chips and salsa were good and I even asked for some extra spicy salsa and it was very good! I believe they added habanero or something but it definitely scratched my spicy itch. Everything else was Ok. Beans and rice lacked flavor but I had already read that in another review. read more

First I need to say it is Sunday in Orofino, ID. Suffice it to say that there are not many food choices in this small town. The hotel we are staying at gave us two choices for food and this was represented as the better of the two. For starters the chips were the thick heavy type and the salsa was mild. The salsa was very fresh tasting but wish it had just slightly more kick. I had the Chimichanga Combo and my wife had the Huevos Texanos. The chimi appeared to be on the smaller side but after digging in realized it was absolutely stuffed with chicken. Often times there is a lot of fluff in these. Not so much with this one. The rice and beans were average. My wife enjoyed her dish and was also impressed with how much meat was in it. She said she would order it again. The service was attentive and friendly. We only had water but it was being filled regularly without us noticing. As I said the rice and beans were meh and the prices here are reflective of being the only decent gig in town. If we were to stay in Orofino sometime in the future we would definitely drop in again. read more

Excellent Mexican dishes and friendly service. Braised lamb shank is a favorite. After a long day enjoying the Clearwater and local area you can pick up a great meal and cold cervasa. read more

Small town feel, friendly staff, good prices, clean, appropriate serving sizes and really good salsa. The taco salad was good but a little light on variety of items in the salad, but the meat was warm (yes please) not cold and lettuce was sliced thin so it was easy to mix it. Overall with the salsa added, really nice flavor. Better half had the combo plate #4 (tamale, taco, enchilada). Only thing off was the Spanish rice, just bland, otherwise, very good experience. If ever here again, we definitely will return. Kudos to wait staff..excellent! read more

Awesome food and service. Best I have ever eaten. And the service is super. Thank you for bringing something new to our community.

Subpar food. I hear it's the best in a 100 mile range. The service was good and the restaurant appeared clean. I'm just used to better food.

Surprised by the low rating...our meals were amazing! Large portion, friendly staff - no complaints. Try the cheese cake chimis for a tasty dessert. read more

Friggin delicious!!! The restaurant was cheerful and very clean I love the happy decorations I love the waitstaff I love the management I love everything about this place.

Really good food., fast service. Never had a bad meal here. Staff is so friendly and attentive.

Given the limited selection in Orofino, I've been here a couple times, and tried to have something different each time. They have wonderful chips and salsa - the salsa has a little kick to it, which I was thrilled about. The rest of the meals were kind of bland. But....this is northern Idaho, and I can't expect folks to want truly spicy Mexican food. The staff is friendly and the prices are reasonable. read more

I have to say first, this little town does not have a lot of choices when it comes to restaurants. This was one of the two that the hotel recommended. For the record, I eat a lot of Mexican food, from many different places. I ordered the steak & shimp combo plate. I noticed the moment the food hit the table, that every item except the shrimp was less than room temperature. The steak was a great piece of meat, but being cold, and over salted, it was very disappointing. The beans & rice were just ok. The Shrimp were good, and that's not just because there were the only warm thing on the plate. Overall the service was good. The server wanted to rewarm the food, but I get nervous sending food back, so I declined. The server did make an effort on the bill to make things better. This was a relieve as the prices were a little more than what would be expected in this little town, in the middle of nowhere. Considering the limited choices in town, I would revisit this restaurant in the future to try other menu items. read more

Delicious food, great service but it is a little spendy. You can't go wrong choosing this place to eat.

This place has really good mexican food. It is your pretty standard sit-down mexican restaurant, but the service is really good and the Camarones a la Diabla are TO DIE FOR. Literally. No, I really mean it would be worth dying to get some of these shrimps. Frankly, Orofino is blessed to have a Mexican restaurant of this caliber. I didn't appreciate it until I moved to Southern California. I have had Camarones a la Diabla at probably 10 places since Fiesta and none have been quite as good. If you're looking for a hearty meal in a nice, festive atmosphere, you can't go wrong here. read more

Greeted at the door...no waiting whatsoever. Carlos was our server and was absolutely wonderful, fully attentive, and cheerful as well. Food was very good, large portions...salsa was excellent! After leaving" dining on the edge" where service was non existent after more than 20 minutes, this was so wonderful and really hit the spot! read more

Ive been here on two occasions with my wife. The first time i ordered just plain old enchildadas. They hit the spot. Second time, i took the recommendation of one of my fellow reviewers and tried the shrimp. Not my particular dish, but they were ok i guess. The prices are a little above my preference, but the quality of the service and the dish makes up for it. If youre wanting a good mexican meal and youre goin thru orofino at dinner time, this is a great option. read more

The receptionist at our hotel said this was her favorite place so we gave it a try. Service is good, food average. Salsa and chips both needed salt. Hubby had enchiladas and pronounced them ok. I had a shrimp salad with mango vinaigrette. It was on the side thank goodness because it was not tasty. Put some bland salsa on instead and scooped up the fresh avocado slices with some shrimp and chips. I would not order this again (obviously!) read more

Stopped in on a lazy rainy day. Place was virtually empty. Clean well lighted place. Service was excellent ( I mean we were the only ones in there so hopefully they normally are this good). My sweet pea and I had a couple margaritas and some appetizers as it was just between lunch and dinner. Love the Orofino area. Fiesta En Jalisco did a good job. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves read more

We love this place. Best nachos and margaritas ever. The staff is so friendly and helpful. Eat here often.

Swung in for supper while in town. The restaurant was clean, staff was friendly and the food was good. Portion size was nice. Couldn't finish what they brought me. The salsa was a little different that I was used to, but was good. Not too hot, and not too bland. I wouldn't be scared to pick this place if you are passing through and needing to grab something to eat. read more

I like this sit down Mexican restaurant. The best part about it is the service, which is quite good. Otherwise, I thought that the food was typical Mexican food. However, after saying that, it's one of the best places to eat in Orofino. Expect to pay about $13pp, which includes a tip. read more

This is a pretty typical Mexican restaurant. The food was ok - not great - but in pretty large portions. The chips and salsa were pretty standard. The margaritas were also pretty standard from a mix, but fairly priced. Service was quite friendly and prompt. The restaurant itself seemed clean and bright. Prices were pretty typical, if not a little high for Mexican. Saying all that, however, this is probably the best place to eat in Orofino. read more

Very expensive, and every thing tastes the same. Having been stationed in San Diego in the Navy, I have had a lot of fine Mexican food, and this is bottom shelf at best. Bland, not much seasoning. Needs fresher produce, and find out what cilantro is. On the bright side people were friendly, and service was good. read more

Good food and service. Not many offerings in Orofino so its nice to have a reliably consistent establishment to frequent.

Wasn't sure what to expect as we were traveling and stayed at nearby hotel (BW Rivers Edge which I'm writing another great review for!). Since we had a dog we got food to go, but in brief wait we could tell this place was popular with locals too. Service was good, and staff were courteous and place was very clean. We will definitely stop here again! read more

Yeah...shame on us. We read the reviews, but figured how bad can it be. We have had plenty of bad Mexican food and figured what the hey...? ...It was worse than we could imagine. The food was horrible...and, expensive. It's a remote town, so I expected the food to be pricey...I just expected a little effort to go with the price. There was none. My wife ordered a straight shot of tequila to go with her beer - she ordered a tequila that we are very familiar with (we have a bottle at home). The tequila they gave us did not remotely resemble the tequila it was purported to be...it didn't look right and sure didn't taste right. They sure are nice folks, though. read more

I had the chile relleno with no stem and a beef enchilada. All good with rice and beans but no salad. Negro Modelo on tap is a positive as is the cooling. Funny how all these Mexican joints blend together in the northwest. All OK but just that. read more
