Pretty good restaurant overall. If you’re in Clayton, I definitely recommend this over La Cocina or other similar Mexican restaurants. The food is great and they grill it well to taste just that slight grill char without it being burned or overwhelming. The ingredients are fresh and lettuce is crunchy. High quality and definitely a low price. Highly recommend.

These folks have some seriously delicious table side guacamole. Green chili enchiladas were pretty tasty. Black beans were good too. All and all a good experience.

This is the best Mexican food I’ve found in the southeast! Their tableside guacamole is fantastic, their salsa is phenomenal, and their molcajete dish is one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Their margaritas are also delicious, and they have many flavor options.

Festejos has been a long-time favorite. Authentic and a great staff, I recommend it over trendy Mezcalito down the way. You are more likely to get great service and have an enjoyable experience here.

Decided to give another Mexican restaurant a try. I’ve eaten authentic Mexican food my entire life and have cooked it for most of my adult life. This doesn’t come close to authentic, but Americanized Mexican food. I’m happy that people who have never had real Mexican food actually enjoy it and assume this is what Mexican food is supposed to be like… enough to give this place 5 stars. Tonight, I will give you my reason for the 2 stars. I ordered 5 entrees in which one was incomplete. One of those orders was fajitas, but they forgot to add the tortillas!! Strike one! Two of the other orders were chicken quesadillas that came with a salad. The question on that should be, “Would you like salad with your sour cream?” I’ve never seen so much sour cream as I did in those orders. Strike Two! Last but not least, the order that took the worst I’ve seen and tasted…beef flautas. First off, flautas aren’t supposed to be made with ground meat, especially the same one used for other foods served there such as the nachos. Also, flautas should be made with corn tortillas not flour. When I opened the flautas order, immediately noticed the wrong tortillas. I tried to pick one up and it was completely soggy, no crunch whatsoever. The worst flautas ever, which I wouldn’t call flautas. Strike Three, you’re out!

Wheelchair accessible. Our waiter was amaaazing. Service was quick and our waiter gave us great suggestions on which items to order. There was a special on the house margheritas. We had several dishes and free nachos with salsa for 2 and it cost less than $40 including tip. The food was served so quickly and looked identical to the pics on the menu. We enjoyed dining on the patio. There is not much of a view but it was perfect weather. Highly recommend.

4 adults and 2 kids were here for dinner the day after Christmas. Our ground beef dishes were especially greasy but we just figured that it had been soaking a little too long in it and ate our meals anyway without complaint. A day later us four adults who had the ground beef are sick to our stomachs from both ends. Major food poisoning. Kids were fine and remained fine because they got chicken nuggets there.

I used to visit this place weekly. Now that we’ve moved 20 mins away, we still drive to eat here, just not as frequently. They do have a drive-through, so you can order ahead of time and pick it up. Everything we’ve ordered has been great.
