Default Take out

The new Mexican restaurant at Colony plaza is good, but their take-out is a rip-off. If you go in, they have generous portions. But, if you order take out...their portions are only 1/3 to 1/2 of normal. We have tried several times...same thing. For ex. the cheese dip we got was only 1/2 of a cup...

Don't bother to go, it isn't good at all. Thw salsa is out of a can ans tasteless.
We thought the food was more of the same as did the couple in the booth behind us.

Been there 3 times (0nce on mon. mariachi night) and our group had no complaints and enjoyed the food and atmosphere. It's in the "eye of the beholder"..........can't please everyone all the time. I'm sure you will find another place that you will enjoy dining at.

I've been there 2x and would say it's good. Now I'm not a Mexican gormet like some here seem to be but the food was good as was the service. They had a host in the evening...not sure about the daytime. Like someone said here...we're retired and all we have is time. We all tend to compare "here" to "there" (home) and as my spouse will say---get over it! We're here now and this is our new normal. I also like Ay Jacinto (or however it's spelled) but Fiesta Grande is closer to where we live and I'll go back I'm sure.

Wow! Fiesta Grande is by far the best in the surrounding area. If you don't like it there you would probably like Taco Bell!
