Fajitas Mexican Restauran — Restaurant in DeFuniak Springs

This is a lengthy detailed review. I placed an order to go for two burritos and a large queso. One of the burritos was the Big Burrito California. As you'll see in the pic it's massive. I ordered it with grilled steak, beans, rice, and queso. The queso appetizer was a decent size. The other burrito was just your standard burrito. When I arrived home I opened the box of chips for the queso. It was a small box. Maybe half full of mostly small pieces and stale. It seemed to be the bottom of the barrel. I have the palette of a toddler. So, normally queso has a little kick. This seemed like it was simply melted cheese. No flavor. The big burrito had a big area in it with thick sour cream. It was AWFUL! I literally took one bite. It was floating in Queso (which should be on the side for togo orders). The tortilla looked like it'd been soaked in chip grease. No flavor at all. I assumed the beans were refried. They weren't. The rice! The rice was not your typical mexican rice or rice of any kind. Maybe it was a whole grain? I can't even describe it other than it has english peas, carrots and corn in it. I had to take the second burrito out of the container (to be eaten by someone lated) because it was queso soggy. I don't give bad reviews unless it's drastic, as I have been in the industry for 20 years. We have been waiting forever to finally try this place and now I sit aggravated and starving. For a dinner item that didn't call for sides in the recipe you'd expect rice, beans, etc. It was NOT worth $30+! Hopefully they will get things together sooner than later or they'll be another empty building on 331. You'll see in one of the pics that an area was shiny because of the grease and some of the sour cream looks chunky. The poor other burrito just looks like a lump of goodness knows. I hope your visit will be more pleasant. Should've...

My husband and I wanted Mexican food for supper, but we wanted authenticity like we would get when we lived in California, we haven't been able to find it until now. We ordered the Fajita Texans for 2 it was nothing short of Amazing. It reminded us of our favorite taqueria in California.

The portion sizes are very large and the tortillas are fresh, there is a lot to say about the way a fresh tortilla tastes. The flavors were so well executed it will be something we order again.

The prices are very reasonable especially for the amount of food you get. We had 2 unsweetened teas (husband is diabetic) they had 4 options for sugar substitutes and we were pleased with the options. Our waitress's name was Kim she was nothing short of FANTASTIC! She was very attentive, she refilled our drinks before they were empty, our chips and salsa were also refilled quickly. When our order arrived she returned to our table several times just to make sure everything was up to our satisfaction.

The owner was going through the restaurant as well, introducing himself to each table making sure everything was prepared properly. He was asking everyone for feedback on how their meals were and how they could be better.

If you decide to give them a try ask for Kim as your waitress and Mr. Rufino Torino, he's the owner.

Great Food, Great Atmosphere, Great Service... We...

When the restaurant first opened we visited and thought it was very good. It took awhile to get our order, but it was very crowded, newly opened... no problem. We returned this evening (Febr 9, 2020) and upon entering noticed a large group of people in an additional room off of the main entrance. It was not terribly busy and we were seated. Waitress got our drink orders, brought them out with chips and ... it was 10 minutes before she came back to take our order. She took it back at 6:42 pm. As we sat there the “party” in the party space got louder. They had a DJ and the music was loud! People then began spilling out from the party room into the main area. Children laying on the benches... at one point we commented to the waitress about how LOUD it was. Nothing was done. When our food came out 38 minutes later we had to request a “to go” box... because the noise was out of control! No way to “close off” the party area. Never seen anything like it. I ordered a Chimichanga with shredded beef instead of ground beef. Got home and I did not get the shredded beef. We will never go back! It was so rude that customers eating dinner were subjected to the loud party / music and they were not willing to do anything about it! 38 minutes is too long to wait for an order; but I guess the party people took precedence....
