We've been dining at Fiesta Cinco de Mayo since shortly after they first opened over twenty years ago. The food is always fresh and well-prepared, the service top-notch, and the atmosphere welcoming and kitschy. Friendly, fresh, flavorful and filling. The owners are originally from Puebla, and their tastes and menu specialties reflect the cuisine of that region.

Some other reviewers have commented that they find the food under-seasoned or bland. I would answer that this is what authentic Mexican food tastes like. The typical American Mexican restaurant is as close to real Mexican food as American Chinese food is to what they eat in China. I've traveled (and dined) throughout Mexico, and can attest that true Mexican food is seasoned with subtlety and sophistication, not the Taco Bell assault on the senses to which we gringos have become accustomed. One reviewer mentioned Tex-Mex over and over again, and judged this restaurant's cuisine by those standards. True, the menu here has many of the usual tacos and burritos, but these are concessions to the American palate. If you come to dine at FC de M, skip the usual nonsense and order something real. Try their enchiladas mole, pollo en salsa verde, or camarones empanizados, and you'll get a sense of what real Mexican cooking is all about.
