La Fiesta Mexican Grille 9513 Northwest 39th Avenue, Gainesville, FL 32606

"Fantastic item. Seafood enchiladas. First time I've eaten there since they remodeled. And they changed the menu. The item I used to order (golden enchiladas) isn't on the menu any more. Decided to try the seafood enchiladas, because I like seafood enchiladas in white sauce. Let's just say that I liked them so much, last night, that I'm eating them again for lunch. (And they're better, today.)"

"Went for dinner after seeing rave reviews on Facebook. I got the puff taco with chicken. It came out hot but the chicken lacked any flavor, however the chili con Carne sauce on top was very good and the shell of the taco was good. Hubby got the seafood burrito. When they set it on the table I could smell how fishy it was. Hubby liked it but said it was a little wet. Mom got the steak fajitas. Steak was well seasoned but the pieces were pretty large and chewy. Salsa was a bit different but I liked it. Waitress was a little slow with getting us our check and seemed a little overwhelmed. The atmosphere was great though. Very light and bright and when it is someone's birthday they play a special song and seem to have a great time with it!"

"I’m seeing some negative reviews on here of people that have been going here for “ Years “but were compelled to leave only a negative review. Really? Nothing positive at all….but you choose to keep coming back for years? I’m happy this place did not go out of business. The food was great and I got a lot for the price I paid. Good music and good people. They have some outdoor seating and a good variety of food on the menu. I went around 130 and it was still pretty busy. That’s a good sign. This place is great to take a date or the family."

"This restaurant just remodeled and it is gorgeous! Service was awesome, food was delicious. They bring you a huge mug of Horchata and it's so good. There is outside dining in the front and a place on the back patio for a large group. This restaurant gives you the authentic Mexican feel!"

"Been coming here for over 10 years, went to the "closing party" about a month or so ago, only to hear a few days later that they decided to reopen. Did take out a few days ago, after the reopening, only to discover that they completely changed the whole menu, all of the ingredients, and all of the recipes. The new food is absolutely disappointing. They acknowledge the fact that they have changed everything, but are going to move forward as is. The chicken fajitas are (now) unbelievably disappointing compared to what they used to be. The chicken is tender, but absolutely lacks any kind of spice or flavor representative of Mexican food. They have changed the beans, the salsa, and all of the other accompanying items. Very very disappointed in this change. I am not sure why they bothered to keep the name rather than name it. Something completely different?"
