Fiesta Mexicana is located in the shopping center at the intersection of Jones Franklin road and Tryon road in Raleigh.

The New Yorker – I like the chips at Fiesta Mexicana; they are nice & thin. Refried beans are very good. Great margarita. Service is good. Nice place. We had the Texas Quesadilla, on a recommendation from a friend, and it didn’t disappoint. The quesadilla had steak, chicken and shrimp; it was HUGE-very filling.

The Raleigh-ite – Fiesta Mexicana has an excellent margarita, not too bitter–one of the best I’ve had for Mexican Monday. I don’t like the sauce on the enchiladas–it’s a thick brown sauce instead of a light red. I prefer the enchiladas from Los Tres.  Fiesta Mexicana is a  hole in the wall place, not my favorite but OK for a meal.

Do over? Fiesta Mexicana is very close to where we live in Cary but we drive the extra couple minutes to Toreros or Los Tres Magueyes every time we are in the mood for Mexican food.

7/20/2009- We ordered: 2 enchiladas, #5 (2 enchiladas, rice, beans), 2 medium margaritas, queso, 1 Texas quesadilla. Total: $44.10
