Fiesta & Tequila
Inside Fiesta & Tequila
Fiesta & Tequila on Preston Street offers a vibrant take on Mexican dining, blending casual full-service comfort with a colorful, lively atmosphere that feels both authentic and approachable. This is the kind of spot where the décor invites you to slow down and soak in the details—the bright hues and playful touches make it clear this is a place that celebrates Mexican culture beyond the food.
The dining experience here leans into sharing and discovery. Portions tend to be generous, with dishes like the Veggie Mexican Rice & Plantain or a plate of Nachos for Everyone serving as great examples of the menu’s balance between traditional flavors and inclusive options. The tacos, though smaller in size, pack a punch with genuine fillings, hinting at recipes inspired by real Mexican street food rather than a Tex-Mex spin.
This restaurant feels well-suited for a relaxed lunch or an evening gathering with friends, especially for those interested in exploring authentic Mexican cuisine with a twist. The friendly and helpful staff add to the ease, tailoring spice levels or giving gluten-free advice without fuss—making it welcoming to a variety of dietary needs.
Alongside the food, the drink offerings like aguas frescas and Jarritos contribute to a vibrant, casual dining vibe where you can linger comfortably. If you’re the type to appreciate a dessert finish, options like Tres Leches Cake and traditional flan offer a sweet, mellow way to round out a meal.
Fiesta & Tequila fits well into the Preston Street neighborhood’s diverse culinary scene, offering something distinct for locals who want more than just a quick bite. It’s especially lively during special events like tequila tastings and themed nights, which add an educational and social dimension to the experience. Whether you’re coming for a midweek lunch, a Taco Tuesday treat, or a weekend dinner with friends, the atmosphere is festive without feeling overwhelming—like a friendly nod to Mexican traditions nestled in Ottawa’s Westboro area.
