Fiesta En Jalisco — Restaurant in Livingston

My husband and I have had meals at this restaurant 3 or 4 times since we've moved to the area. Besides the (more expensive) steakhouse, it's our favorite place to eat.

The service has always been pretty good there. I haven't had much of a problem getting refills for my drinks and they've never messed up our orders.

The complementary chips and salsa are fantastic--you get a spicy kind as well as a mild salsa that seems to have cabbage in it. The latter is my favorite and I plan on trying to make my own salsa to match.

The food is hot and fabulous and you get a lot on your plate. Lots of refried beans, rice, and some vegetables too (lettuce etc..). I'm a picky eater and I have never had cause to complain there. While some people might be overwhelmed at the huge menu, I love it because of my picky-ness and it gives me so much more to choose from that I would enjoy rather than narrowing it down to just one or two items I might consider.

I tried the chicken mole last time, and it was so delicious I can't wait to get it again! A friend of mine says the fish tacos are great there too with delicious seasoning.

If you want a casual atmosphere with good comfort food you should give this restaurant a try. And it's DEFINITELY better than fast food! I don't like mexican fast food and you certainly can't get mole...

The reviews for this restaurant looked promising, but failed. I had high hopes after walking inside because the atmosphere was glorious. Bright, vivid colors filled the restaurant. Too bad the food was dark and dim. The chips were stale. I asked for another basket and those too were stale(or at least tasted like it). We ordered the pork enchiladas, Camerones Jalisco, and soft taco and was displeased. The pork was very dry and not very flavorful. On a positive note, the rice and beans were excellent.For the price of the food, I expected much better quality ingredients than what we were served. The day we went was around 40° outside, but the restaurant was kept way too hot. It was miserable inside. I had a displeasing experience with our server as well. She wasn’t very attentive and when asked for straws, chips, napkins, etc. she would make it seem like it was some large task for her to do. For lack of words, she was lazy. Overall, the atmosphere it great but the quality of the food and service was a bit...

I'm extremely disappointed with the service my family and I received tonight. The food was sub par and the service was worse.. both of the employees were extremely pushy and did not take any time to understand what we really wanted. Firstly, the booth we were seated in, was terrible. The outer side of the booth sunk so far down it was extremely uncomfortable. Secondly, I was all but pushed out of the way when trying to sit down because one of the waiters was going to put chips on the table and could not wait for me to finish sitting. Everytime our waitress talked to us she was snappy and in a rush to finish talking to us, even if we weren't finished with what we were saying. This caused for us to be served the wrong food, which we delt with for the sake of time because we had children with us and are traveling.The beans were so runny we didn't even eat them. It was honestly a...
