The order was for carryout and it was beyond backwards. We order one steak asada burrito which was correct. Then we ordered a Traditional Burrito which was supposed to have chicken inside and a Fiesta enchilada which was supposed to have chili colorado... And when we got the order home what do we find???? Well my traditional burrito wasnt labeled chicken it was a traditional burrito full of CHILI COLORADO. And what about the fiesta enchilada you ask???? Well that was full of chicken!! read more

LOVE this place. Been eating for going 8 years. Owner is such a gentleman. Staff friendly. Food is wonderful. Believe me I KNOW Mexican food. To be fair though my take out orders leave something to be desired. Food is sometimes cold and disheveled. Or missing items. read more

Well i used to like coming here but I wont be back since I had asked for fried icecream and the gal we had didnt have a clue what I ment. When its on your menu. Not right. You need to train your waitresses to know what is all on the menu. Very sad this happened tonight read more

To be honest, I was a little worried when I saw the reviews, because a friend suggested this place. As soon as I walked in, the staff was very friendly, I was seated promptly, the chips and salsa were good tasting, the suggested margaritas by the waiter was very good, and the entire Carnitas De Res was really good! The ambiance was relaxed, family oriented, friendly, and a good time. I definitely recommend and this place was busy when I showed up. So, I don't know why it has these kind of reviews. read more

Fiesta Guadalajara - Carnitas De Res - Mexican Near Me - Meridian, Idaho

It is ok. Needs add cilantro. It pretty hot dish and likes strawberry margaritas. I order me crema chicken enchiladas, beans and rice.

I'll keep this review fairly short... I should have checked the Yelp reviews first... but the restaurant we wanted to go to was randomly closed and this was a close option. The kids quesadilla and fries came out first and were cold. The cheese was not melted and there were maybe 10 fries total. I ordered chicken enchiladas and was served ground beef. It took another 5 minutes before the other two people got their meals, both were just ok. The huckleberry margarita and Cadillac margaritas were good, so they've got that going for them. We all got extremely sick after eating here. First and last time we will go here. read more

That you hire people that know how to take an order correctly...when you are paying close to $70 for dinner, the very least you should expect is to get the food you ordered..as it is whomever answered phone put us on hold & just walked away...man that took over phone had to take order AGAIN and still managed to get it wrong..usually they get our order correct, NOT THIS TIME...Will never order from them again..if I could give a zero star I definitely would..not at all happy read more

I stopped by the Fiesta Guadalajara bar to kill two hours. I stood at the hostess desk waiting to be seated for about 5 minutes. People were waking back and forth without acknowledging me. I was finally brought to the bar. First impression is pretty sad, the bar stools are broken. Flat cushions on a 12x12 post of wood. The cushions wobble really bad. One post of wood is just sitting all by it self, no cushion on it at all. Now to the drinks and food. I ordered a Cadillac Margarita and the Crab Enchiladas for lunch. I must say both are excellent. The drink is as smooth as silk and the crab enchiladas are very tasty. The portions are what I'd expect and I'm very happy about that. The chips and salsa are very good too! Don't let the look of the bar fool you, this place has it all together where it counts. I'm deducting 1 star because of the look of the seats in the bar and the 5 minute wait to be greeted, but everything else is stellar in my humble opinion. If I lived closer, I might frequent this establishment more often. I'm glad I gave this place a try even after reading all of the crappy reviews. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, all went well. The bar is empty, but that is to my advantage, I received excellent service. Sometimes it just all works out. read more

First time eating here and I had high hopes, I really did. We rolled up at 5pm during the week and we were the only ones there for about 30 minutes, which told me it was a sign. Margaritas were decent.....tequila was all the way oj the bottom though and by the time you got there, it was watered down. The food. I got the chipotle chicken enchiladas....they were $13.75, and while the sauce was good, the chicken was dry!!! Also, the rice was hard....like it had been sitting uncovered for a while. Not impressed and won't go back. read more

Enjoyed dinner here a few weeks ago. Ordered two cheese enchiladas rice and beans. Food was hot, food was brought to our table me quickly and the server was kind. The location is right off of Eagle Rd so it is easy to find in a small shopping center. We'll definitely be back here again for some good Mexican food. read more

Hashtag Worst. chili. Rellenos. EVER. Instead of the light fluffy egg dip, they scramble the eggs and overcook them hard. It tastes like an overcooked omelette. It is awful. This is the second time I've tried them here and both were this bad. Go elsewhere if you want a good traditional style chili rellenos. Janitzio in Caldwell is family owned and has GREAT chili rellenos! read more

The service was kind of bad, we felt rushed and she barely spoke any english so we had to repeat ourselves multiple times. Prices are not listed for drinks so you have to ask. The food was pretty good, the chicken is kind of wet though. Decent portions but it ended up being almost $40 for two entrées. It was decently quiet and there was some Hispanic music playing in the back ground. read more

I eat here several times a year when I visit family in the area and we've never had a bad meal, drink, or service. Everything is always great. We did takeout for the first time recently and it was still great! Do note that the Meridian location has a separate menu w slightly higher prices than what we saw in pictures online, just a heads-up. read more

Always a good go to Mexican restaurant. We came for lunch today and I am always amazed at how attentive the staff is. They never let your glass sit empty, they keep the chips full and they are very friendly. I also have to mention their soup is wonderful. The ambience is really fun too. Definitely a good stop for lunch. read more

Fiesta Guadalajara - Lunch Chicken flautas. - Mexican Near Me - Meridian, Idaho

Went here with my family for my moms birthday! Food was really good. Margaritas were good. Their Spanish rice is so good!! Service was great. We asked for some hotter salsa & they did NOT disappoint with the hotter salsa! I'm glad they gave us some warning on it. It was extreme for me but two members of my group really liked it. Would go here again. read more

This place used to be one of my favorite places to eat....until they robbed me. I brought my cousin from Texas to lunch here and I was in great spirits to show him some good Mexican food since it's hard to find here compared to the motherland (Texas). I ordered my usual, Pollo Chipotle, and I asked if I could have a mix of shrimp and chicken since they a Camarón Chipotle as well. I said, "can you do a mix of both? Maybe a little less chicken but then add the shrimp"? I said "If I have to pay a little more, that will be okay". The waiter then asks "how many shrimp"? I was like...."What? Heck I don't know.....5"? I was truly confused because who knows how many shrimp they would put in, in lieu of the chicken they normally put into the dish. Right? Well, my cousins says, "wow, that sounds good, I'll try the same". Soon, they bring the food and it looked just as expected, less chicken but with exactly 5 pieces of shrimp. The food tasted good as usual. Then the tab arrives.....they charged me $3 dollars for EVERY shrimp!!! I then went to speak to the owner and he said that it was considered a "side". One shrimp? One shrimp is considered a side? How will that look like.....they bring you a plate and put ONE SHRIMP in the middle?!! They charged me $30 total for 10 quarter size pieces of shrimp. Then the owner pretends to NOT be the owner and says "it's just the way the owners have it in the system and I can't do nothing about it"; apparently he forgot that we had met before, however, he said, "YOU should have asked how much the side was". It's not even listed as a side in their menu and the waiter never mentioned that it was a "side" and he definitely didn't mention that it was $3 a piece for what they consider to be "large" quarter size piece of shrimp. The bill came out to over $70 for what used to be a $30 lunch for 2 people. I paid it and called them out for the thieves they are. They robbed me of $30 dollar and lost my families business forever. **Español Este lugar era uno de mis lugares favoritos para comer... hasta que me robaron. Traje a mi primo de Texas a almorzar aquí y estaba de muy buen humor para mostrarle buena comida mexicana, ya que es difícil de encontrar aquí en comparación con la madre patria (Texas). Pedí mi habitual, Pollo Chipotle, y pregunté si podía tener una mezcla de camarones y pollo, ya que también tienen Camarón Chipotle. Dije, "¿puedes hacer una mezcla de ambos? Tal vez un poco menos de pollo, pero luego agregue los camarones"? Le dije: "Si tengo que pagar un poco más, estará bien". El mesero luego pregunta "¿cuántos camarones"? Yo estaba como...."¿Qué? Diablos, no sé.....5"? Estaba realmente confundido porque quién sabe cuántos camarones pondrían, en lugar del pollo que normalmente ponen en el plato. ¿Bien? Bueno, mi primo dice, "wow, eso suena bien, intentaré lo mismo". Pronto, trajeron la comida y se veía tal como se esperaba, menos pollo pero con exactamente 5 piezas de camarones. La comida sabía bien como siempre. Luego llega la ficha.....me cobraron $3 dólares por CADA camarón!!! Luego fui a hablar con el propietario y me dijo que se consideraba un "lado". ¿Un camarón? ¿Un camarón se considera un acompañamiento? ¿Cómo se verá eso... te traen un plato y ponen UN CAMARÓN en el medio?!! Me cobraron un total de $ 30 por 10 piezas de camarones de un cuarto de tamaño. Entonces el dueño finge NO ser el dueño y dice "es solo la forma en que los dueños lo tienen en el sistema y no puedo hacer nada al respecto"; aparentemente se olvidó de que nos habíamos conocido antes, sin embargo, dijo: "TÚ deberías haber preguntado cuánto costaba el lado". Ni siquiera aparece como un acompañamiento en su menú y el mesero nunca mencionó que era un "acompañamiento" y definitivamente no mencionó que costaba $ 3 por pieza por lo que ellos consideran un cuarto de camarón "grande". La factura ascendió a más de $70 por lo que solía ser un almuerzo de $30 para 2 personas. Lo pagué y los llamé por los ladrones que son. Me robaron $30 dólares y perdieron el negocio de mi familia para siempre. read more

I called a night ahead to see if they could accommodate a large table for a small celebration and they said yes, so we planned our dinner party there. It was a Friday night and they were busy. They sat us all together at a table , but we needed two more chairs as girls trickled in . Nobody would get us chairs or re seat us. We found chairs and made sure we were not blocking the exits. This was supposed to be a 50th birthday celebration and a bridal shower, and we planned on eating and drinking plenty. We were ignored for about 20 minutes and had to find someone to take our drink order. The server treated us like we were a burden, instead of a potential Huge sale and respected patron. When we ordered our meals, two of them came burnt ( grilled fish tacos , and rolled taquito plate) we sent the food back and opted to just eat chips and drink . One of the meals was over spiced so bad , that she couldn't eat it, but didn't send it back as we were not trying to be difficult. Later one of the ladies was so agitated that she went and got the manager , and the young man sat and rolled his eyes, and then blamed the service on the " new cook" and then said " what do you want us to do, sing to you ? " He made it very clear that he did not care, and was just standing in as manager for the night. One of our ladies grabbed a female waitress that stepped in and helped us with some simple requests, and she was energetic and kind and apologetic. She asked what we were celebrating( no one else did) and tried to help us finish the night on a better note. Many of us at the table work or have worked in the serving industry. We understand an off night, or busy night, but you still have to care, you still need to try, and you should Always be professional. We felt bullied, and dismissed and none of us will be back to this establishment. read more

Gonna keep this short, just don't... keep driving. Stopped in, cracked the menu, saw the ridiculous prices and got up to leave. Unfortunately, they set down chips and salsa before we could. Food was very bland as in way north of the border bland, Antarctica bland with a side of bland and extra bland on the side. You know what wasn't bland? What was incredibly spicy? The check.... read more

Just ordered lunch for pickup Got home to wrong orders when I called, I was told I had ordered from dinner menu and they were serving lunch menu, hence the wrong order! Dinner started at 3:00. Did not tell me this when I was ordering. If I wanted original order, I would have to pay extra! 2 tamales turned into fish tacos....not at all acceptable!!! Will not be spending another penny at this restaurant!! Terrible customer service!!! Customer is never right....restaurant is always right!!! read more

Terrible food, awful margaritas and the worst customer service. Hard pass on this place.

Do not eat here, it's so inedible that after one bite we could not continue. The carnitas tasted old and over re-cooked. Would I come back to give them another try? Absolutely no. read more

Frequent flyer here. Service is always great. Food has always been spot on. We've been here in groups from 2 to 10. I don't think I've ever been here when it was 'loud', always has been conversational levels. read more

Came off of the recommendation from a friend. Loved the kick of heat in the salsa. The Chile Colorado was delicious and honestly we were surprised by the amount that came on the platter! Our drinks were kept full and we were checked on a couple times. It was exactly what we wanted and we were not disappointed at all. read more

Fiesta Guadalajara is an "old school," family owned and operated restaurant, serving delicious Mexican cuisine that's based on the city that the restaurant is named after, Guadalajara, in the Mexican state of Jalisco. This amazing restaurant serves some of the finest Mexican cuisine the greater Boise area has to offer, and the delicious fare is served with a smile. We're still in the grips of the COVID-19 virus scare, so seating in the lobby is taped off. As you enter the restaurant, you'll be greeted by a friendly "meeter/greeter" who will seat you. On this late Thursday afternoon, the restaurant was sparsely seated, so our "greeter" suggested we sit anywhere that suited us. We decided to sit in the main dining room. Shortly after we were seated, our super friendly server, Nancy, brought out a large basket or warm, fresh corn tortilla chips, along with a small bowl of in-house-made salsa, and creamy beans, perfect for dipping. My friends are a little "sensative" when it comes to salsa, so I gave it the "ol' college try" and rated the "heat" level at medium-low, which works perfectly for me. My friends opted to enjoy the bean dip, so I got to eat the salsa all by myself! From the "Combinations" section of the menu, I ordered a #5, which featured a tamale, and enchilada, along with a taco. All combinations include rice, and either refried or "whole" beans. Like the "Mexican" I am, I went with refried beans, which are one of the foods that I LOVE the most. When asked for my choice of meat, I "porked out" and went with pork, all the way. Choices of meat for all entrees includes chicken, carne asada, pork or carnitas. Talk about a tough decision! I went with carnitas for my taco, enchilada and tamale, but I could have "mixed and matched" if I would have wanted to. Fiesta Guadalajara is very flexible, and serves YOUR food the way YOU want it! The carnitas meat in my meal was simply mouth-watering amazing, as it was juicy, tender, seasoned, and spiced perfectly for my taste. The enchilada was amazing, being stuffed with carnitas, onion and garlic, but the tamale simply blew me "out of the water," as it was SO great! When you surround the juicy carnitas around perfectly prepared masa, a little on the crispy side, you go to "Jalisco heaven" without leaving the greater Boise area! My taco features carnitas, lettuce, tomato and onion, in a crispy, fried tortilla, that actually held together while eating it! The restaurant's chef has talent! The rice was great, but so-so, as rice never excites me. The refried beans... oh the refried beans! Now you're talking... the refried beans were creamy, and I could taste a little garlic and lard in the beans, which makes for outstanding refried beans! The beans were topped with grated, melted Mexican cheese which, along with the tamale, made me think I was dining in a restaurant in downtown Guadalajara, Jalisco. Do you love thick, flavorful red chili sauce? I do, and my dinner had lots of it from the enchilada and the tamale, which made for perfect dipping with my beans and rice. My enchilada, tamale and beans were topped off with two varieties of grated, melted Mexican cheese. Muy sabroso! My dinner was simply outstanding! My dining companions felt the same way, as both Cindy and Katie commented on how much they enjoyed their fine meals. Anyway you look at it, Fiesta Guadalajara is a fine restaurant... You'll love the food, you'll love the friendly service, and you'll love the "old school" Mexican-style dining room. The recent addition of an upscale bar and dining room is a nice touch as well. When you combine amazingly friendly service, delicious food, and reasonable prices, it all adds up to 5 stars for Fiesta Guadalajara. read more

Food was exactly what you'd expect from a local Mexican restaurant. Inside you'll find a charming facade of a southwestern town with roof lines and paintings to create ambiance. They serve homemade salsa and refried beans with the chips. Always appreciate that. Food was decent. I ordered fajitas and they were exactly as I'd expect. Not enough meat and tons of peppers, but that seems to be normal now. Wife had an enchilada with shredded beef. I'd go again, but definitely not my highest recommendation. Price decently. read more

Honestly the worst Mexican food I've ever had. Nothing was fresh at all, my chile relleno was not cooked properly and the beans tasted more like lard than beans. Chips had a nasty old fryer oil taste so we couldn't even eat the chips and salsa. We were all very surprised that none of us got sick, chicken and shrimp tasted off on their dishes. read more

I'm glad I went against the overall Yelp ratings of this place! The food was so flavorful and delicious and serving sizes are huge! They bring you chips, salsa and beans as soon as you sit. I had a michelada and they brought the mug out with mix and my beer separately, and the mug was chilled! I got their fiesta especial and obviously it was too much food for one person. The skirt steak really hit the spot! My husband got the Pollo a la cazuela, and I wish we just shared that. It was amazing! I will definitely be coming back! read more

A solid 4 stars. Great chips. Nice and thin. Had the chimichanga and us was very good and full of meat. I like my Mexican food a bit spicier, but still very good. read more

Recently went with a girlfriend. I ordered chicken fajitas. It came with mushy lettuce; it had a dressing (why??) and had obviously been sitting around all day (we arrived at 8 pm). I mentioned it to our server and she kind of shrugged her shoulders. I was given 4 corn tortillas, 2 were hard/crispy/dried out. I do enjoy their margaritas! read more

I've been to this restaurant countless times during COVID and have kept ordering since then. I've never had a bad experience. The staff is SO friendly. The chefs are doing something right because my favorite (Carne Asada with beans and rice) is cooked to perfection each time. Love their guacamole, salsa & chips, too. You can't beat this Boise Mexican restaurant, in my opinion! Takeout is easy and fast! Plus, you'll have plenty of leftovers if you're like me! read more

A very pretty restaurant with kind service and comforting food. I can't have rice or corn right now, sadly lol, and felt really cared for when the server and kitchen accommodated me by replacing my rice with salad and even my corn tortilla with another salad. Also, this Fiesta Guadalajara location has carnitas, al pastor, and chile verde pork! I tried the chile verde and enjoyed it. Heads-up that the chile relleno here is an omelet with peppers inside, which worked out great for my current dietary restrictions but may be disappointing if you are looking for a whole pepper that's battered and fried. read more

The food is always excellent! We have been going to this location for a few years now. The service is amazing. They are very attentive. The decor and ambiance is just right. If you are looking for tasty authentic Mexican food then look no further. We drive from Nampa at least once a month to eat here. read more

Service is fantastic always. Food is always wonderful! Served sizzling hot. Prices are reasonable.

By far the worst Mexican food in Idaho. Server was inattentive, gave us 2 forks no need for knives right? Never checked in on us never brought extra chips or salsa. Served virgin margaritas, food was a step below taco bell. Went being the only table in the restaurant easy 50 minute wait for a table of 4 was wild. What a shame they are still in business. read more

I'm used to "REAL" Mexican food and quite honestly this was very very good and pretty close to real deal. I had a coctel de camaron. I added a small amount of ketchup and BOOM... there it was. The shrimp were clean and BIG. My significant other ordered the chipotle chicken enchiladas and he really really enjoyed them. They were stuffed with juicy shredded chicken and lots of cheese. The complimentary chips, salsa and beans were delicious. Our server was so nice, attentive and cheerful. read more

What an absolute disappointment. We have ate there multiple times but tonight was terrible. The rice was crunchy, my fajita burrito had raw meat. To top it off the margaritas were awful. And the manager didn't have anything to say. That was a terrible experience, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to my worst enemy. If I could give negative stars I would. read more
