This Mexican restaurant was ok. We sat down right when it opened and the service was attentive. We got our drinks np, and chips and salsa came quickly. Nothing fabulous, just tasty chips and basic salsa (not spicy). I ordered a salad and a tamale. They were both good, average. I had order guacamole but they forgot. The servers were attentive but did not really seem committed. We sat outdoors and it was comfortable and I enjoyed the patio. Not likely to go back with so many other choices that are great! Oh the kids dishes were substantial. Choice of fries or refried beans(prob from a can)/rice. read more

The food was ready on time. Service was quick. However the food was mediocre. My dad and I both ordered the beef soft tacos. They were completely wrapped up in foil and after the five minute drive home they were soggy as hell, and the beef was super salty. The tostada was soggy as well. With the enchiladas that were ordered the sauce was not specified when ordering, between red and green sauce. Also the fact that a Mexican restaurant doesn't have soft corn tortillas for tacos as an option is kind of a joke. Other than that, the refried beans and rice were good. read more

Menu items are great. Good selection. I got a huge XX lager for $4 during happy hour. The margaritas were huge but light on the tequila. Quesadillas are really good and personally cooked to my liking. The choriqueso? was really good. The nachos we had had toppings on them that looked like it came from the fajitas which was good quality I just didn't think they fit on nachos. Staff was very friendly and we didn't have to wait long for anything. read more

We had my good friends thirtieth birthday here, but I must admit that it is the "go-to" Mexican joint in Mt. Dora. My favorite is their house Margaritas! Now the happy hour (5-7pm I think...) is what you've got to be careful with because you order one regular size Margarita at regular price and they get you a giant 16oz beer mug filled to the top! I made the "mistake" of getting there early with my better half and after finishing one Marg proclaiming that "there wasn't any tequila in there, I'll have one more". What I should have known is how smooth their Margs are that they are strong and super smooth! After the second one (I'm six foot five and 225lbs) I must admit I was a bit sloppy but it held me all the way through ordering and finishing dinner. Dinner was the enchiladas supreme which gives you a variety of chicken, beef and cheese with beans and veggies. They are always delicious and to be honest I haven't gotten anything else here when I come. But everyone was always happy with their choices all the times that we've been. It's truly a "Huge Party" Everytime you go to Fiesta Grande... I'll be back.... For happy hour for sure! read more

Foods always on point and the service fast and exact i love coming in once a month with my wife for some of the best texmex in central florida read more

Besides the not so great workers, this restaurants food is very good! Downtown Mount Dora cosy feel, not too many people, great place. Every time I go I get something different and the only thing that has disappointed us the fajitas, they are subpar. The guacamole is amazing!!! Regarding the experience with the workers, every time I've gone it's either bad waitressing ( not refilling drinks, chips, salsa or getting order alittle wrong) and bad attitude. read more

Best Mexican food in mount dora, best margs, best service, like eating with family. We love Tony, Jesse and all the crew here.

First let me say that the food at Fiesta Grande has been acceptable each time I have been but the service is what drops my rating to a one or two star. For example this weeks visit the place was busy but there was only a 5 minute wait to get a table but then it was a hour wait for our food. I had to ask for drink and chip refills from the waitress. Then our dinner arrived 2 our of the 7 were completely wrong not even close to what was ordered. Several were cold where they had set before being brought to the table. The waitress brought two flan to the table as a apology with out asking if we wanted it of which people were diabetic and could not eat it or did not like flan so that was a waste. Not the first negative experience for me. read more

An active, clean, restaurant with large portions and excellent service. Happy hour until 7 pm, the Aztec Salad and Fiesta Nachos were great! Nothing amiss here, a must go if you are visiting wonderful Mt Dora! read more

Great food no complaints everything was excellent! Staff was accommodating and food exactly what we hoped for. Chips were warm and salsa delicious! read more

I don't really like rating restaurants super low, but I had to do this due to poor customer service. When I got to the restaurant with my party, the people at the front did not ask us for a number so we just began to wait. Then they proceeded to give another larger group, that didn't have a reservation, seating right away and made us wait. Finally after going back up again to ask when we would be seated they gave us a beeper. However, the beeper did not even work and they blamed us for that. Like how would we have known your beeper was defective??? Along with this, there's an uneven pavement by the restaurant that is dangerous for elderly and people with disabilities to safely enter. Super disappointed since I was so excited to try this place out. read more

I love this place, the authentic atmosphere and the food is mouth watering the margaritas are truly Grand especially at happy hour! Oh and have you tasted the Tamales? Delicious! My husband and I come here when we want to celebrate a victory or just kick back and enjoy some good flavourful food and drinks they never disappoint. read more

So glad we found this place! The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious. Finding a good mexican restaurant that can accommodate a dairy allergy is hard to come across but I was blown away that they actually offer vegan cheese!!! We live an hour away but we'll definitely be back! read more

Cute restaurant. Food was pretty good except for the salsa for the chips. Food was seasoned nicely not salty at all. Looked clean, which is very important for me. Oh, by the way, regular margarita was good, it made me tipsy. So they are not cheap on making them the right way. read more

I have been here four times and love the food, the prices and service are also decent. Now my problem with this restraunt is that everytime iv gone its extreamly loud and alot of the customers are loud and obnoxious. They seem to cater more to the large drinking partys then the regular customers. Now id be willing to over look all that because i like the food. But today me and my wife attemted again to have lunch here and as usual it was loud inside, outside was packed. They started to assemble four tables for a large crowed comeing in and we politly asked to be moved to the back room. Which we were denied. So they had no problem catering to the incomeing traffic but couldnt accomadate the present customers. So we left. I shouldnt have to be subjected to a large party in a small room when im droping money myself. Thats ok i wont be returning. read more

Love me some Mexican and this place hit the spot. I ordered the lunch special with an enchilada and burrito which also came with rice and beans. It was so good but there was so much food I had to take half of it home. We did start with chips and salsa and we added guacamole. The guac was ok, could have used more salt for my taste but was still tasty. Great prices, daily specials and great food. Would recommend! read more

Since my first review we have visited F/G several times. I am updating my review and raising their score considerably. Improved on everything. Recommend their fajitas! read more

Our fave place in town pirced right great food I have had everything on the menu. Service always amazing!

Two for one drinks all day, until 7 pm. Only open until 9:30 pm. Food was great. To me, Mexican all seems to be roughly the same in regards to presentation. Each of my assortment platter were a little different in tasted, which was nice. Free chips and salsa were plentiful and refilled. Great service by a latin/spanish staff. We will definitely be back. read more

My wife and I wanted to get a light lunch while we were at the plant fair this last weekend. We stopped in here and although it was busy we were able to get a seat at a high top at the side of the bar. Our friendly waitress came right over and helped us with suggestions on something we could share. We shared a beef quesadilla and each had a Dos Equis on draft. They also bring salsa and chips as soon as you sit down. The quesadilla was excellent. You could taste the quality and there were four pieces laid out for us to share. It was plenty for both of us for lunch and with the two draft beers only $21.00. The place was nice inside and it wasn't noisy although it was crowded in the main room. I would definitely come back again. read more

First irritation: they don't let anyone thru the doors until exactly noon so you're waiting on the heat and humidity. Second irritating thing: we were the second group thru the door out of eight groups and the LAST one waited on!! The food was ok, nothing to write home about just another Mexican restaurant. Also it was very noisy. I'm very surprised at how busy it always is but then Mt Dora is very touristy so they don't have to count on repeat business and they can't count on mine! read more

This is probably the best Mexican restaurants in central FL! Boyfriend ordered the "Lunch Special #2" which contained 1 enchilada, 1 Taco, and 1 chalupa. The enchilada was HUGE! Filled with perfectly seasoned and cooked beef. The taco and chalupa were freshly made, combining the cold and warm ingredients perfectly. I ordered the Lunch Chicken Fajitas. They were served with a plate of sizzling chicken, onions, peppers, and tomatoes. It also included a side of NOT canned refried beans but FRESH, lettuce, pico de gallo, and rice. Served with 3 warm (what seemed like home made) flour tortillas. Overall, the meal was delicious with the perfectly marinated meat, sizzling entrees, and great service! Highly recommend. read more

I had bistec A La Mexicana steak, onions and peppers, perfectly grilled soft and full of flavor. changed the rice and beans for side salad. At the servers suggestion, my husband had the Fajita Brocheta. Grilled chicken with bacon, onions, peppers, mushroom and pineapples. Served in a skillet with tortillas. For desert we shared a "tetas tropicales" tropical hooter. Piña colada n strawberry with melon liquors n coconut rum. Yuummmm. Best part, dog friendly out side covered sitting read more

Amazing food and warm service. The portion was pretty big and it's enough for two people to share. A must to stop by in mount Dora.

Went to have some drinks and appetizers with some friends and it did not disappoint. The bartender was very attentive and the food was delicious. I like how they kept with the social distancing measures and all the staff had masks on. Will definitely be back. read more

Best Mexican around Mt Dora! Everything is on point for authentic cuisine. Quesadillas and happy hour are our go to favorites.

I reside in downtown mt dora and have tried this place a few times over the years since they opened. My first visit was horrible, food was gross and had an awful flavor. Stayed away for a year or two then went back with the family in tow, this time the food was a bit better, average mexican food. Service was decent. Update: a few more visits and the food has gotten better!! Service was good. Food came out quickly, cooked well, seasoned nicely, just yummy! Beware!!! This place permits smoking on their outdoor serving area. Totally gross! So if you wanna sit outside in a nice day while eating your meal, forget about it! Its like being in an ashtray. For this reason they havent gotten more stars. read more

Love love there chimichangas and margaritas. Great place staff is nice and courteous. Check it out food is awesome.

Best mexican food in the area, and the Dos Equis on tap is always cold! Try the Molcajete Caliente, it's my favorite!!! read more

Ok so, this place has been here 6 years.... Shame on us for not having visited sooner!! Granted, it's off the main Mount Dora drag, but PLEEZ, put it on your map. It's only one block north and definitely worth the trip. My margarita was made fresh, with my choice of tequila (Corralejo) and a whole squeezed-in-front-of-me lime. Hubby's XX Amber was on tap and, for a mere $3 at all times, a real freaking bargain. And clean lines...bonus!! I had the Molcajete mixto, a delicious mixed grill made in a 'molcajete' (heated basalt mortar) and served with fresh flour tortillas. Hubby had the steak chimichanga. Both were über fresh and utterly delicious. The tortilla chips are house made as is the salsa, which had a delightful kick. Actually, we were told (very proudly) everything is made fresh every day! We sat at the bar (as we do in most places) and service was quick, friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back, check this place out again and make sure it's not a fluke. But, based on other Yelper's reviews, I think we're good to go. read more

Did the seafood festival food walk and fiesta grande advertised fish tacos... was served tuna fish in a can tacos. Killed the tour, after that we left. Don't participate in an event if you are going to ruin it. read more

Always on the hunt for good Mexican food, and this place is now on the list. Passed on the 2 for 1 drink specials and headed right to the vodka. Always a fan of a "combo" plate and their Combination D had my name on it. The trifecta - a taco, a burrito and an enchilada and three were delicious and with enough sauce left over for the remaining chips. My dining partner went with the Mexican Dinner, and there was so much food we ended up taking a taco back home to eat for breakfast. 2 drinks and 2 meals, $44.00 read more

I have been here twice. The first time we had good service and good food. Had chips salsa and guac right off the bat. not charged for it. my second visit here was well... pathetic. THe waiter needed a better understanding of English... Charged us for the guacamole which we weren't for our first visit. I don't know if this was a mistake or not.. Then when i paid in cash never gave me my change .. assuming it was his tip Which i had to retrieve.... POOR SERVICE. and the fajitas were well... im sure taco bell has better. This restaurant needs to train their servers better. There are better Mexican restaurants that is worth the drive. NOT WORTH THE MONEY read more

Delicious Mexican, Extensive menu choices to please anyone's pallet. Excellent service and outdoor seating which is a plus these days which many prefer. 2 Parking lot's to park next to it & across street especially helpful for those disabled or unable to walk far looking to dine out. read more

What happened!? We were here a year ago and I recall eating authentic Mexican food. Now? Velveta cheese in the enchilada and ground round in the taco. The chips were also disappointing. Worse than store bought. Will never go back. I'd rather have eaten at Taco Bell. More tasty. read more
