And lo, in mine hour of great affliction, when the void within mine bosom roared like the sea in…read moretempest, I journeyed unto the house of Casa Fiesta upon the highway called 280. Clad in mine stained Batman doublet, whose hood-strings I had gnawed as a beast gnaweth bone, I entered that place seeking meat for the belly and balm for the soul. Verily, the aroma of roasted meats and spices rose up as incense before the altar. I spake unto the servant, saying, "Give me the fajitas and the queso, and suffer not the margarita to pass me by," and they did minister unto me with speed and kindness. The fajitas sizzled upon the iron as though the very fires of the pit had been brought forth, the meats tender and full of savour, the peppers and onions yielding up their sweetness. The queso flowed like unto a river of mercy, rich and warm, and when I dipped the chips therein, it coated mine tongue with comfort. The margarita was cold and strong, refreshing the spirit as dew refresheth the morning grass. All things were made fresh, even as the scripture of their kitchen declareth. Yet as I ate, the old wound opened. In the year of our Lord two thousand and seven, upon spaghetti night, mine father took his gym bag and spake, "I can do this no more," and departed, leaving a child of nine winters clutching a scratched Batman figure at a cold table. The door slammed, and he returned not, neither called he upon any day thereafter. Thus I sat in the booth, rocking gently to and fro, and the good food of Casa Fiesta filled the belly but could not wholly still the cry of the fatherless. I am a broken vessel, a man-child unworthy of such bounty, drifting from table to table in search of that which was taken from me. Nevertheless, five stars I render unto them, yea, five stars and more. For in that house the meats are seasoned with care, the service is swift as the wings of angels, and for a season the emptiness doth draw back. I shall return again in mine same garments, to eat of their fajitas and drink of their margaritas, and to let the sizzle speak peace unto the part of me that yet waiteth by the door. Casa Fiesta off 280, thou hast dealt kindly with a wretched soul. Blessed be thy kitchen, and blessed be thy name among the hungry and the heavy-laden.

This was my first time dining at Casa Fiesta, and overall it was a really good experience. The…read morerestaurant was very busy, but the service was pretty good despite the crowd. The only hiccup was that our server seemed a bit irritated after we ordered the Casa Fiesta dip and later asked to have it without the pico de gallo because of the spice risk -- but everything else went smoothly. The Fiesta Bowl was very good and definitely the standout of the meal. I'd probably return, especially to try more dishes when it isn't as packed. Solid spot with tasty food!

The chips came out piping hot and the salsa had a great chipotle/mole flavor. The Mexican umami. My dad and I came on a Wednesday night for a quick dinner. I got the pork tamales, which were good, some of the better tamales I've had in Birmingham. But once you've had a freshly steamed, tender tamal, it's hard to go back. Margaritas are yummy here. Atmosphere is good, lots of TVs for sports, dimly lit, fun lights.

I ordered their La Playa margarita... $12 for a margarita that I didn't love or hate. I definitely would not order it again.

Alright alright... don't judge me--yes, I'm at Taco Mama again. Different location though, so…read moretechnically this counts as branching out. I'm currently on a "doctor-inspired" diet (aka I had some dental work done yesterday), so no burgers, no corn on the cob, no tearing into anything that fights back. If it's not bite-sized, it's not happening. So I played it smart and went with the trusty burrito bowl--this time with steak. And let me tell you, that was the right call. That steak? Tender, fresh, and seasoned exactly how it should be. No surprises there... Taco Mama doesn't really miss. Now every few bites, you catch one of those jalapeños sneaking in, and it hits your taste buds with just the right little Southern kick. Keeps things interesting. Then you get that perfect bite where the queso decides to make an appearance--next thing you know it's dripping down your chin like you forgot you were in public. No shame. Atmosphere still holds up too. Strip mall location, but they've got those big garage doors rolled up so it feels halfway outside, halfway inside. Patio's open, music's going, lunch crowd doing their thing--it just sits right. All in all, solid choice... again. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a full stomach and a date with a nap.
