La Fuente

La Fuente is a super cute spot, I loved the decor & all of the bright colors. The folks who helped us were also excellent, they were friendly & fast! I ordered the Tacos de Pescado, which come with a side of rice & beans. Everything was tasty, if not a bit too salty. I did really appreciate the slaw on the tacos, since it helped balance out the saltiness. I also had the house margarita, which was served in a cute cactus glass & was very good! In all, I would absolutely come back here; it's exactly what I look for in an American Mexican restaurant :)

We love La Fuente, excellent margaritas great service good food.... Great service. Yum yum yum

This place is not what I used to be. There was only one other car in the parking lot and now I see why. There was about 1 tablespoon of meat in the chimichanga and the enchilada. The chips are a tiny basket as well as a tiny cup of salsa. After that they charge you service friendly but very slow...too because location is great. But that's not enough to get me to go back $15 for a stuffed pepper? No thanks.

Ambience. Nasty tile floor. Tables have this blue vinyl cover that is sticky and gross No free refills. A 4oz cup of salsa free with one basket of chips for four people. Then it's $4.10 for more each refill with the 4oz cup They changed their chips and salsa. No flavor on either - used to be amazing Came here to sit outside on a Saturday - the patio is closed for power washing lol. On maybe their busiest day ? Odd Tostada was wet and gross. Not impressed with this place at all. Never will we be back. We just paid $95 for four crappy lunches - chips and salsa and four drinks - next time we will go to Taco Bell - better food I hate to say Do yourself a favor - just dont come here. I'm serious.

Honestly surprised that La Fuente doesn't have a higher Yelp rating... hands down some of the best service I've had at a restaurant establishment. Everyone is so kind and prompt and seems to really care about the experience you are having. The food is also wonderful and yummy, as well as the drinks! Overall a great spot to grab Mexican food with family and friends in the area!!

0/10 experience. This used to be one of the more acceptable and affordable places to get quality Mexican food in Milwaukee. Overpriced, bad food is what they serve now. There were fruit flies everywhere and what appeared to be melted plastic in a taco we were served. Overall not worth your time or money.

This place, as in the physical location, brings back so many memories of my college days... when it was El Matador and Carey's... so when it initially evolved into La Fuente, I was not a fan simply because of the change.Now, many years have passed and I just recently revisited. While I long for the simplicity of the early/mid 00's, I decided that La Fuente is a-okay in my book!We came on a Friday, early evening and it wasn't too busy. Most people were seated on the nice patio. Each table has a big umbrella to provide some shade from the summer sun. We were seated within a minute or two of our arrival. We were served chips and salsa almost immediately after being seated. I liked the salsa! It wasn't anything exceptional but I prefer the more blended salsa over chunky. Chips were decent, again not like "woah!" but decent, standard tortilla chip.We ordered a pitcher or house margaritas on the rocks and it came out quickly. It was so good on this warm, but not too hot, summer day. I decided to order something totally different than the standard burrito or enchilada... the Plate Lunch with chunky beef (mechata, I believe). It was served with rice, beans, the typical garnish (lettuce, tomatoes), and flour tortillas. Basically, build your own taco or mix it together for a tortilla-less taco. This was a good decision, the beef was so good! And it was a large portion - I would definitely order this again.My husband ordered the Papi Poppers, which are a spin on Jalapeño Poppers - deep fried jalapeño halves with chicken, avocado, and cheese. Muy bein! There were so many, he had it as a meal. I tried one and it was delicious - a little zip but not too much. Like a 1.5 out of 5.My friend ordered a chicken quesadilla, which came with guacamole and sour cream. She said it was amazing!Service was fantastic - our server introduced himself right away and checked on us several times. He made sure our chips and salsa was refilled and even gave me a "doggy bag" to take home the chips we did not eat for my pup ;) (I said they were for Roxy lol). We did take some leftover home, but not much as we were "grazing" for a period of time. They did get busier but did not rush us out - it was fantastic as it was my husband and my 4 yr anniversary, so it was like a fun little party.Parking can be a bit stressful as the lot is small. There is parking down the street and across Bluemound (at your own risk during rush hour).Overall, great service, great food, good times!! :D

We had a group of 10 come for a meeting there. The server was very good. However, they gave us 3 half filled baskets of chips. If you want more, you have to pay for them. If that is the case, fill the first baskets up. If you want a refill of soda, you have to pay. You don't even get one free refill. Also, the cups aren't huge. We wanted 2 checks for the table but they wouldn't do it. The bill time was a disaster because some people paid by cash and some people charged their meal. This restaurant doesn't value a customer. It was almost like we were getting scammed. No one should patronize them.

The service was SO slow and they weren't very busy. Lots of wait staff running around. I think our waitress forgot about us. The food was warm but not hot. I ordered the taco salad and asked for no beans or black olives. I asked to substitute rice for the beans. I was charged $15 for the taco salad and $3 for the side of rice. It was nothing special for that cost. My husband got one of their combo meals. It looked very greasy. He also said his was warm but not hot.

Always like this place its clean, service is great always plenty of elbow space, The food is tasty, Margherita's are good.I've had alot of different dishes here,all have been good
