If you are looking for a restaurant that serves delicious Tex-Mex cuisine in Saigon, then La Fiesta should be at the top of your list. This cozy little eatery is located in the heart of the city and has quickly become a favorite among locals and expats alike. From the food to the ambiance, there are many reasons why you should pay a visit to this restaurant.
One of the most appealing aspects of La Fiesta is its fantastic food. The menu is extensive, with a range of dishes none of which I ever felt disappointed about. Whether you are in the mood for tacos, or mouth-watering burritos, you are sure to find something that will tickle your taste buds. The ingredients are fresh and the flavors are bold, with just the right amount of spice to give each dish that authentic Tex-Mex taste. What surprised me the most was its generous portion sizes. If you eat dinner there, you will probably never feel hungry until the next day’s lunch.
Despite its small size, La Fiesta has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The decor is colorful and lively, with traditional Mexican motifs adorning the walls. The tables are a bit close so you will not feel private enough for intimate dates but and it also make the friendly and attentive staff easily notice you when you have requests for them.
One more thing I like about this restaurant is its owner seems very responsive when it comes to his customers’ feedback. I have seen him answering people from groups for foodies and google reviews. Whether it’s a suggestion or a complaint about a dish, he seems to take every comment seriously and strive to improve the restaurant’s offerings.
In terms of pricing, La Fiesta offers great value for money. The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality and quantity of the food. You can expect to spend around 200,000 VND per person for a full meal, which is a steal compared to other restaurants in the area.
Recently I even saw them update their menu with salted-lemon beer which sounds like a local touch on the Tex-Mex cuisine. I should really try it next time I go there.
Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who love Tex-Mex food. If I have to give it a score out of 10, it would be 9.0. Good job, dudes!
