Wow I'm impressed with this place, inside looks beautiful, the chips and salsa were so good they give you a lot extra too in case you want more while waiting then I got a chicken fajita smothered burrito and it was actually a very good price and very delicious I'm a huge fan of grilled chicken and this was great thank you. Came out to 12 I'm very happy. They tell you the plate is hot when serving it to you and they are not joking! I'm sure it depends on what you order but I like it. Thank you!

I’ve been trying to find a Mexican restaurant that hits like my hometown and this is the spot! The ambiance inside tells you the food is going to be good. The salsa and chips were super good with great portions. Beans and rice were perfect and the chicken chimichanga was great! The small combo platter was huge for the price! The prices overall were really good compared to other places. You can get a great meal for a decent price. In the best way possible this was basic greasy Mexican food and exactly what you need sometimes! I will for sure be back again.

Friendly staff, amazing seasoned chips and delicious cheese tortillas! The big plus for me is that they served Horchata!!!! Mexican food places aren’t legit in my book without the stuff.

I came in for lunch and ordered the beef enchiladas with rice and beans. What a delicious meal. The fresh salsa and chips were good enough that I had to ask for seconds. My meal was so good that I decided to take my whole family in for dinner. My boys loved their burrito and tacos. My wife had the steak fajitas, and she is a picky eater. Her meal was delicious and the fajitas are huge! Kids eat free Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings! We ordered the mini churros with fried ice cream. What a great sweet treat and enough to feed all of us. The atmosphere is awesome! The entire restaurant is clean and the food is delicious! I highly recommend this place!

The Fountain is a great spot for fast, inexpensive, and flavorful Mexican food. The chili verde smothered burrito is a must-try—packed with flavor and generously portioned. The food is easily 5-star quality, with quick and friendly service to match. The atmosphere is solid, though not overly fancy, but we appreciate the authentic touch of Mexican music at just the right volume. Overall, a fantastic choice for a delicious and affordable meal!
