Visit number two in three weeks! I told you we would become regulars!!! Again we were seated immediately! Served those delicious tortilla chips with my boyfriend's favorite bean dip! I however hit the salsa bar for yummy salsa and white sauce! We actually did Momia jalapeños for an appetizer! They were very good and cheesy! Just wished the bacon was a little bit more flavorful! I ordered a vegetarian quesadilla for my entree! Excellent! I think the broccoli added a nice flavor! It came with lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole and sour cream! My boyfriend had the Steak Rancheros! They look good and he said they were delicious! It was a nice date night meal. Very chill atmosphere with no one rushing you away from the table! The staff was amazing as always!

I love the food here, especially the chorizo based foods. The service is always great and the bean and cheese dip is AMAZING.

I'm just a gringo but the best Mexican food I've eaten. Horchata, y chips, entonces a mole-all fabulous. Chips were delicious and not a lot of salt. The Enchiladas Poblanos were a burst of different flavors. The horchata was a nice way to refresh my palate. If I lived here I would go weekly.

We live in Canton NC, but I read many reviews of a lot of the Mexican Restaurants from here to Mars Hill NC. My son-in-law's birthday was Nov 3rd, & he said that he, my daughter, & his son loved Mexican food. So TACO FIESTA II MEXICAN KITCHEN won. Their reviews are awesome, & they have a almost spot-on Health Department record. I called the restaurant to see when a "less busy" time would be on a Sunday since that's when his birthday was. We got there around 4:00 pm, was seated quickly, & the "perky" young waitress came to take our order. I wish I could remember the waitresses name, she said she was working there, & attending Mars Hill University in hopes to become a nurse. I asked for a soda without ice, & I got it. My son-in-law asked her if a specific dish that he wanted, would be enough food for him & his young son. She said, "Yes", & completed taking our order. I did feel that our food took a while to come us, but it didn't matter, because their food is DELICIOUS! The decor was very appropriate. Our son-in-law was very happy to get treated to supper there. If we are ever going through that area again, I hope we can eat there again.

How does this place only have a three star rating? We've eaten here over a dozen times and never been disappointed. Today, I had the Carnitas and it was excellent. I love that they have Dos Exes Amber on draft. Friendly competent service. Fair prices. Joyful vibe. I'm

First time here with wife. We live in Burnsville so was recommended. Rio is in Burnsville but every time I go there my order gets messed up. I order steak nachos and its a runny mess of taco meat and cheese. Probably a language barrier issue. I digress. This was really good food and a welcoming atmosphere. I had boring beef enchilada and beef taco. My wife the taco and Chile relleno, which said was one of her favorites compared to many chili rellenos. The bean dip and chips will fill you up. The salsa bar is great to try a variety. The one on the far left has too much heat for dipping, but pour it all over your food. Only drawback was no liquor license (we were craving a margarita). But they had a nice Mimosa with sparkling wine and she like it a lot. I had a giant Negra Modelo - What's not to like? Great prices, next time I'm getting the mocajete , it looked delicious. Our waitress, Emily, was working her butt off with a 6 top family and at least 4 more booths. Absolutely Amazing, she checked on us constantly and never forgot anything we asked for. She deserves many kudos for her hard work and great attitude. Even have leftovers for lunch because I destroyed the chips and bean dip. Made for a looong drive back to Burnsville. Temps were great so 455 A/C the way home. Totally recommend!

This is your typical Americanized Tex-Mex restaurant. There's only a handful of restaurants in Mars Hill and it's hard to go wrong here. I'm not sure why the other reviews are so poor - maybe they're older but I've been there at least three times in the last month and things have been completely fine.

A nice local place. Chips and bean dip were good but we highly recommend putting some of the spicy green salsa (far left on the salsa bar) in the bean dip for a little extra flavor. Wait staff was attentive but the food seemed to come out randomly... I waited 5-7 minutes after my husband was served for my entree. Our food was good - sizzling enchiladas and a spicy shrimp dish with avocado recommended by our server. Looking forward to returning to this festive and inviting tasty eatery!
