Dearborn Heights Mexican Restaurant Returns to Carryout Over ‘Rude’ Dine-In Customers Refuse to Wear Masks | Eater Detroit

"Operating as the Dearborn Heights branch of a 58-year-old, family-run Mexican restaurant group, this location returned to carryout-only service after multiple recent incidents in which customers refused to wear masks and treated staff rudely. Manager Sam Alvarado, the founders' grandson, said confrontations escalated over the past few weeks — including an episode in which a customer charged the door and refused to leave, prompting police to be called — and that protecting employees and patrons made the difficult decision necessary despite foregoing dine-in sales after only two weeks of reopening. The family expressed gratitude for community support, emphasized that mask and capacity requirements are mandated by state and county rules, and plans to reassess dine-in service after Independence Day, possibly adding staff at the door to enforce safety policies." - Brenna Houck

Ordered pickup of enchiladas with rice & beans. Got the 1st photo. Called and manager said they put in the ticket incorrectly, and come grab a new one. Picked up a 2nd time. Still missing a side. Sigh.

Fantastic. Everyone who works there made us feel welcome. The food is outstanding, the portions are big. Our waitress treated us great, she made sure we were good and always had everything we needed. We are so glad we came here and we will be back.

Had a great lunch. I was impressed with the Burrito lunch specials taste and the portion was huge for a lunch entree! They used Munster cheese which was delicious. My wife had chicken Quesadilla and the chicken in it was flavorful. We were taken care of by Mario and he was very attentive and helpful. Enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa too. And the price was very reasonable. In fact I thought they hadn’t charged us for something but the check was correct. It was my wife’s chicken enchilada that was so reasonable but I had two burritos with rice and beans for just 11. Highly recommended.

The reason for the 1 star review is the waiter named Jordan. He brought us our food 1 time and never came back. We had to ask the bartender for a refill on our drinks and this was for my birthday dinner. Absolutely ruined my dinner and experience first time here and I will never eat Inside again waited over an hour to get ZERO SERVICE!!!!!

I have been going here for a very long time, like since I was 4. I have never had such a disappointing time there. My son's food was cold. The rice in all of our food was rock hard and under cooked..... Not returning here unfortunately.... It is sad because we would go here every year with my mom for my daughters birthday and my mom is no longer with us so there is a piece of nostalgia that we will miss....

The service was absolutely perfect. The server recommended a blackberry margarita pitcher and it was nice! The food was pretty. Taco salad needed more beef in it. It was full of toppings tho. I wish things didn't taste so bland.

Food so good I went 2 times in one week. I haven't been to this location in years but my mom and I were in the area and we wanted Mexican food. When we arrived we noticed they had made some changes since the last time we were there. Some changes we noticed was the bar area. It was a large size with plenty of tables around it. We were kindly greeted and quickly seated. Our waitress was very kind and quickly took our orders. My mom and both agreed on how well the rice tasted and the tenderness of our chicken. This is definitely our new Mexican spot!!!

I've been coming here for years, I really like the chips and the salsa is ok. I usually just get things made with beans and cheese, because I don't care for their taco meat. I do like pork enchiladas there, though. This time around, my friend and I sat at the bar. The food was just ok, the chips were fried too dark for me. We went on a Monday when the house margarita is $7 on special (normally $9). Not that long ago it was $3 on special and $5 normally. They are just made with Daly's margarita mix, so they aren't all that special and not very costly to make. When I looked at my receipt at home, I was charged regular price. Our bill was $58 total, I gave $50 cash and put the $8 ,plus tip on the card. I was charged the credit card processing fee on the whole thing (including the $50 paid in cash). I was so annoyed when I noticed that when I was at home, if I go back, I'll only pay in cash and I'll look over the receipt thoroughly.

Mexican Fiesta is so good. I have tried many items and they are always delicious. I tried the Fiesta Bowl this time and it may be my favorite. It is so much food and evenly distributed down to the bottom with the chicken. It is very filling and I used it for two meals. Fresh avocados make it extra tasty.

We had takeout. Our meals Consisted of tostada, Nachoes, and burritos. The tostada was actually three small that equaled a to-go order that came in a medium pizza box. The nachos consisted of cheese, meat, jalapeños, and chips. Decent food at a decent price.

I have not been to Mexican Fiesta in about 20 years. We used to have holiday parties, going away parties, and promotion parties here, I have fond memories of the place. I wondered how much it changed in the last 20 years. The exterior and the entrance look exactly like they did 20 years ago. There is still a small stage near the bar, and there are a still large, separate dining rooms. It felt a little bit like coming home. The fact that it looks the same is a tribute to management's focus on keeping everything looking new and clean. The real standout here are the tortilla chips. You get complementary baskets, with free refills, and a choice of hot and mild sauce. They are perfectly crispy, and likely came from Mexican Town. unfortunately, the food also tasted like it did 20 years ago. You get an option of two sides with your main dish, and I picked baked beans and rice. The rice was good. I would have liked a bit more seasoning, but I didn't mind the rice. the refried beans are the type you get in most Mexican restaurants: they are just a smear of bland, brownish gray stuff. I ordered the fish tacos, because they did not have it on the menu 20 years ago. The fish is good. It tastes like fresh cod. But, you don't get very many of these delicious nuggets in your taco. They cover it with a huge amount of shredded lettuce. Most surprising was how expensive it was. The fish taco plate cost $15. I added a side of guacamole, and bought a Diet Coke. The price at the register was $28.87. And, no, a gratuity was not included in the price. I felt like the guy on the insurance commercial about people turning into their parents. This was the one where a guy goes to pay for his salad, and it's $19, and he tells the cashier he didn't pay for the entire table. I seriously would have given the review and extra star if it weren't for the price. It's not great, except for the chips, but everything is decent. It's not worth it for the price.

If you're a Dearborn or Dearborn Heights native, you KNOW Mexican Fiesta. It's been the go to spot for families, sports team, and budding romances for years. This place is always pretty busy, and this Friday night was no exception. The service, however, was excellent. You get house made chips with both hot and mild salsas very quickly once seated. I enjoy their salsa- it always tastes fresh and tangy, although it's thin (classic restaurant style salsa.) The atmosphere is cozy- the lighting is dim, there are flairs of authentic Mexican art and murals throughout, and plenty of space. The cantina area doubles as a sports bar, while the rest of the restaurant has snug tables and booths for a sit down dining experience. I enjoyed my favorite dish, the crispy flour chicken and cheese tacos with a side of rice and beans. The beans do not have pork, which is good to know for many dietary needs. The rice has subtle flavor and pairs well with the beans. The tacos I mentioned taste decadent to me- I love the combination of chicken and cheese with the texture of the crispy flour taco shells. The lettuce adds moisture and texture to each bite. My boyfriend went the more authentic route with tacos Al carbon. He added onions and cilantro to enhance the flavor of the steak, and for soft corn tortillas. These are more like street tacos. The steak was great- very flavorful. The corn tortillas were well grilled and lightly crisped. This restaurant has tasty food and feels like an old family restaurant with decorations put up 30 years ago and never changed... lol! We didnt love the neon lights in the cantina, but we get it- it's the bar area. For 5 stars, we would've liked a little less grease all around, hotter chips, and perhaps some Mexican music. The virgin drinks for $5 were a great add and a lot of fun. For a laid back, fun evening, definitely check out Mexican Fiesta at THIS location (the best in my opinion.)

Been eating at Mexican Fiesta for 64 years! The food is excellent, reasonably priced, and the servers are friendly and attentive. Sometimes you may a bit of a wait during their busy times, but it's worth it!

Very large portions on the combo platters but all very good. Mango margarita was great on a hot day. Combo platter came with large bowl of tasty, creamy coleslaw. I eat at a lot of Mexican restaurants and have never had coleslaw with my dinner. Parking lot was full, restaurant busy but able to be seated in about 5 minutes. Enjoyed our dinner.

First of all, our waitress Cassie was great! She even asked us if we wanted more water or anything after already cashing out. However, the food was bland, the fried flour taco shell was so thick you could barely taste the filling. Also, the mild salsa was tomato flavored water, and the hot salsa was extremely salty tomato flavored water. The biggest issue for me was that the cleaning spray used to clean each table around us that left was such a powerful chemical smell that it made me want to gag. I would not go back.

I've been coming here for years, I just realized that I hadn't left a review yet. I stopped by with a friend on Monday after Cinco de Mayo, it was busy and we sat at the bar. The bartender was fine, although she never came back to check on us, in fact, and we had to ask another server to get our check. My food was about the same as it usually is. My favorite part is always the chips & salsa and margaritas. I typically only get vegetarian things, because I don't care for their beef taco meat. I got a small combo without the taco, substituted with another cheese enchilada. The food was typical, I would probably score this with 4 stars, but I watched a server take chips from a basket that someone had eaten from, and dumped it into a big greasy brown paper bag at the bar. It appears they collect leftover chips in a bag. What are they doing with them? They should be thrown out, I hope they're not serving them to customers.

I loved the restaurant. Went with 5 of my coworkers the other day for lunch and were promptly seated,. Service was great and fast enough. The chips they brought out were freshly cooked and were hot. I mostly filled up on those since I couldn't wait for the main course to be out. I ordered a mini botana and I thought I'll squeeze in chimichanga too since those were lunch specials. The mini botana was HUGE, enough to last me for 2 meals, and the chimichanga was another 2 meals as all portion sizes are HUGE. I was surprised because they have a small and a large botana too.. wondering what portion sizes that would be! The food as such was decent enough for us to return again. Service and ambience is top notch. I would come back to try their tacos and maybe a happy hour or so..

5/7/25 ordered a taco salad to go for dinner, ate a quarter of it just because I had not eaten yet today, horrible, no taste to it whatsoever, shell tasted stale, no flavor to the meat at all, never again!

Customers but taken care of. I was just there in a Tuesday night, April 22, and there was probably more workers than customers. so you would think good service. The worst service ever. Do not go to this establishment.

The last we were here was about 5 years ago and it's been a long time coming. We were seated right away and of course the first thing you receive is the fresh hot chips with their homemade salsa. We were celebrating one of my staff's birthday and I'm always game for Mexican. I ordered the taco salad bowl, which was fresh and very delicious. My staff ordered the enchiladas with beans, so much cheese, add onions and boy - talk about it melting in your mouth! We had a great time and service was good, food was fresh and delicious. The bar section was open and they had a nice crowd for a Monday 12:30 afternoon. I'm looking forward to coming back for an after hour taste and drink.

I had to say Mexican fiesta is not good at all. Anybody who is trying to go get Mexican I purposely say there's other places that you can get Mexican from that will blow your socks off. I think service is not the greatest. There was a big scuffle way back and I don't really care for the ambience or anything it's really dirty, if you were just Mexican, I would say don't come here at all if you want good Mexican I will do your homework

Mexican Fiesta Dearborn Heights (NOT Canton) has the best Mexican food, chips and drinks in the area. We've been coming here for decades and never disappointed with the servers, bartenders and sit down lunch/dinner. The place is huge, typically packed and definitely worth any wait.

This is not my first or second choice for a Mexican restaurant , its an ok restaurant. The prices are fair and the service is always good. The chips and salsa and great but other appetizers are not and I have learned to stay clear from them. The jalapeño poppers had a thick yellow cheese. The queso dip tasted like Velveeta. My picture I posted that is the flaming cheese dish full of just grease and everything was so chewy.

We love to meet up at Mexican Fiesta for chips and salsa and queso. I also had the chicken quesadilla and it was delish, perfectly crisp and lots of cheese. Our waitress even warmed up the queso for us when it got too thick. On this visit the mild was slightly spicy, so I mixed in less hot salsa than I normally would. I love the fresh chips and individual salsa bowls!

Ordered a carry out for my boyfriend while I was out to eat with my family. Got home, carry out was completely wrong (I ordered two chicken and cheese enchiladas with double rice & they gave him two meat & cheese tacos with double beans). It's fine, things happen, but the kicker is when I tried to call to rectify this, they shut their phone lines off, which directed us to an automated system stating that they couldn't take our call. No chance to wait on hold or leave a voicemail. Super disappointing.

We stopped in with our Family of 5 and Were given our Drinks and the Meal was served apparently once the Meal comes they will not Come Back.Tried to Get refills on our Drinks but Couldnt.So you need to ration You Drinks to last through the Chips and Salsa and Your Meal.Portions Have Shrunk and the Price went up.Much to My Surprise the Tip was Added in already For Terrible Service.So I guess once they throw the plate down it doesn't Matter because they're getting the Tip whether you like it or not.And the Cashier talks to You like your Stupid to Complain.Wont Go Back!

This was our first time here we had a Friday night dine in dinner date at 8 pm. Not a long wait tables were spaced out good for distancing. Server was ok. Doing her job... Nothing spectacular. No refills & didn't check back on us until departure. We both got chicken fajitas. The price for the portion 15 a plate, the food quality was not good.Dry,unseasoned & bland and not the freshest. The best part of the meal was the fresh chips & salsa. I would not recommend or return. I've had Taco Bell that was better. I was disappointed the reviews I read gave me a higher expectation.

There are NONE to compare! Yeah...I know everyone has a favorite, or two or three. But if you really want to taste what real Mexican is like the only place we need to go is the Mexican fiesta restaurant! And I used to go to the one on Ford Road and telegraph, but there's another one located on Ford Road and Sheldon in Canton. Nothing on the menu is without praise!! personally I like the steak fajitas, my friend likes the Mexican sandwich, We all love margaritas, especially when they're on Toofer! Their day off is Sunday so don't plan anything then. Give them a call when you get a chance, this one's a keeper.

We have been here for over an hour and have not received our food! I had to reach out to get a waitress to come to our table just to order and get them to bring the chips. We had a group of 6 next to us that that came in 15 minutes after us and got served first and completed eating their food. Matter of fact every table that came in after us has been served. I expected slow service for Cinco de mayo but not no service! A waitress hasn't even come to check on us. We ended up walking out. As a business owner to a business no bueno.
