Wonderful, friendly service is a strong part of the high marks here. The atmosphere is welcoming and festive. There's nothing particularly innovative on the vegetarian menu, but at least it's there, with multiple combo options, and that is greatly appreciated! My Spanish rice and tostada were good. The cheese enchilada gets a lower score; the sauce needs a bit of work, as it was insipid, without piquancy or depth. But high marks on the adequate sauce volume provided; there's nothing worse than a dry, under-sauced and over-cheesed enchilada, and this was definitely not that. The complimentary chips and salsa were also greatly appreciated; too many Mexican places have started charging for this, and I find that reprehensible. The salsa had a nice spicy punch, a bit more than typical in this type of restaurant, and was great on the tostada.

Peeps, I had the pleasure of dining here for a week vacay! Let me start off by saying the Customer Service is Phenomenal, they make sure you are taken care of even if you are carry-out! The food is Ahhhmazing I got The Fajita Salad and you did not need any dressing. It was enough for two meals. Now, Hear me out, I do not like green peppers, but every other color and spice I love! They cooked the green peppers, onions, and beef to perfection! I ordered the 3 tacos for my husband and he said they were the best he has ever had. The food has a real authentic Mexican taste. Did I also mention my order came with Chips and Salsa, and the salsa had just the right amount of heat. I am definitely coming back.

Food came out fast, which was great. The cheese sauce was a little too spicy on the chimichangas plate and was poured over the entire plate. We sent it back and asked that the sauce be on the side and it was delicious.

The chips were seemingly hot and "fresh" but they tasted hard and stale. My jaw was tired from chewing. I got one chicken hard taco. The shell tasted burnt and stale. My husbands taco shell was the same, and the chili relleno was fried and covered in this terrible brown gravy-esque sauce, and was so soggy my husband couldn't stomach it. He rarely complains and will eat just about anything. Cheese dip was good.The women's bathroom was not. It was Pretty gross in there... Humid and smelly and just weird with these makeshift plastic stalls. I would not go back.

I've grown up going to La Fogata's and let me tell you they never disappoint. I love the staff so much they feel like family now and always ask how things are going in life and sometimes even know my order before I say it. The food is fantastic, I normally get the ACP or just a chicken quesadilla, and that's definitely basic but it's just so banging that I'm scared to switch up. It's normally a very comfortable environment (unless there's a huge party or something) and I look forward to seeing so many people I know and the awesome staff. So get to know your server because they're the sweetest people.

"Reasonably priced (for the area) Mexican in Nags Head"We came here on a Saturday night for dinner anticipating it'd be easier to get a table here than at most of the seafood restaurants we had been hitting up, and sure enough, yes-- we got seated immediately. It's a big space, and it was not full when we were there, though it was busy. Lots of parking outside, too, so this is an "easy" dinner option in the area.We were immediately given pretty good chips and salsa-- the salsa was mild-medium and flavorful. We ordered a cheese dip to complement at the table, and I ordered the yolandas enchiladas, but asked them to substitute with a green (verde) sauce. They happily/ easily accommodated.Service: Our server checked on us multiple times and was quite friendly. We easily got refills on our drinks, and despite that they were busy, everything happened quickly (service, refills, food arrival, check arrival).Food: Good. I will say that I wasn't overly impressed with the cheese dip-- it was a very small portion for $4, and tasted a bit like velveeta. But I did really like my enchiladas. The green/ verde sauce was HOT, which was great. And all of us were impressed with the LARGE chunks of hot chicken (rather than shredded bits people get at most Mexican restaurants that look like they come from a can) that came inside the enchiladas and other dishes. The rice & beans were good too.Price: Some reviewers have complained it's expensive, but Nags Head is a tourist town, so everything is. This was only a little bit more expensive than what I have at home in my non-tourist-town, so I'd say it was a fair price.Synopsis: Nothing to write home about, but if you want a break from overcrowded yet delicious seafood restaurants with 2 or more hour waits, this is a great option for an "easy" yet good dinner.

Our party of 11 stopped by for some Mexican food. The inside of the restaurant was dingy and several of the lights were flickering. We persevered and took a seat anyway. Our waitress came out and informed us that we could only split the check two ways. She then preceded to take our drink order but became visibly frustrated when our party began asking questions about margarita options. After informing us the options are on the menu she told us she would come back when we made up our mind. Additionally the menu states that the first order of chips and salsa is on the house but additional baskets are $3 each. We did not order any food but chose to leave.

The food was mushy and not very flavorful. It was quite a disappointment and not worth the costs. The salsa tasted more like tomato juice.
