While Tex-Mex cuisine is known for its spicy flavor and eclectic blend of ingredients, it’s definitely not the healthiest food out there. Lucky for Universal City Tex-Mex lovers, La Fiesto Patio Café offers the same tacos, enchiladas, and other delicious dishes without all of the lard, white rice, or excessive sodium. La Fiesto uses all natural whole grains and brown rice as the base for its dishes, while fresh herbs and spices add delicious flavor without the use of salts or artificial seasonings.
The signature “puffy tacos” are the restaurant’s most popular items, and they get their name from their crispy shells of corn masa stuffed with generous portions of beef, chicken, tofu, or beans. La Fiesto also offers a full vegetarian and vegan menu that includes a wide variety of dishes that far exceed the usual salads.
La Fiesto Patio Café is open 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.
