First time dining here. Definitely won't be the last. Food portions were generous and fairly priced. Ingredients seemed to be of high quality. I didn't particularly care for the strawberry margarita, but that might have been a one off thing.

Great food and Wonderful service. Our first time here we ended up having 4 margaritas total. It was good with the right amount of alcohol. A must try.

I normally get the tropical chicken, chicken chimichanga or we share the parillo for two. Never had bad food here and we have eaten here over 10 years. Our waitress is the best. Great staff!

Had lunch here today for the first time. Cute place. Friendly and attentive staff. I had the taco salad with chicken. It was a lot a chicken! Most places fill the bowl with lettuce and put a little bit of everything else. This was good. The cilantro ranch dressing was great. Will visit again!

I used to live in Arizona and Texas for many decades, so my crave pallet is always for Mexican food. Being in North Carolina makes it challenging to find DELICIOUS Mexican food. La Fuente is not only a true small business, but their food is amazing! My absolute favorite is the Enchiladas de Molé, which are three chicken enchies covered with molé sauce, rice and beans. There aren't many restaurants in NC that fo the molé sauce, and La Fuente does it perfectly! Just enough sweet and spice! My husband gets the ground beef chimichanga with rice and beans. Their chips are crispy and the salsa is obviously house made! Do yourself a favor, eat at La Fuente!

Nice Mexican Spot
I recently tried La Fuente on the recommendation of a friend for dinner. I frequent another Mexican place in town, but my friend said this was really good. So we went, and I'm glad I did. While the menu and motif is similar to other Mexican spots, I found the serving sizes much larger. The wait staff was very nice and helpful. The food came out fast and hot. The salsa with the chips was different, but really tasty. Not sure what the secret ingredient was. They have great margarita and beer specials daily. Definitely worth a try when you're craving Mexican food.
