Literally the worse asda burrito I’ve had! Asked to add cheese, sour cream on side. No cheese, sour cream inside. The burrito was sightly bigger than my hand. Soggy and extremely salty! was cut in half as requested but from the burrito being so soggy the paper broke into tiny pieces that had to be picked out to even eat! Once I took a bite, a ton of meat came out leaving a chunk of meat missing and just tortilla. We ended up throwing it away. Tried a bite of the rolled tacos and were okay. Orange hot sauce ended up thicken up and was gross, red salsa was okay I guess ( but not spicy at all) green was okay too. Over priced especially not making order correct and then all the salt and burrito falling apart with paper attached to it. The lady was nice tho and place appeared to be clean but thats all I can say for anything being good about this place

Stopped here while shopping in Hillcrest Calif. We had a great experience. Service was great. The hard tacos were delicious. They have happy hour pricing M-F 1p-6p the tacos are $2 for chicken and the beef were $3. Fish are $3. The bean & cheese burrito is $7.99 it’s big & comes with a soda. They have a salsa bar with a lot of choices. They have seating inside & out.

Great drive-thru experience!!! The five TJ tacos Al pastor were fireeee omg so good. The service was so good too!! The gal just also happened to be named Vanessa so maybe it’s a Vanessa thing. ✨ I usually DoorDash from here but just started driving thru instead. SO GOOD!

La Fuente is a terrific place to stop by for late night Mexican food if you get the munchies after dancing or having some other type of fun earlier in the evening. We walked in and were greeted by a worker who didn’t welcome us or say anything. He just walked to the register and waited for us to order. Not the friendliest by any means but maybe he was having a bad night.
The place has plenty of seating, both inside and outside and it’s brightly lit. There is a salsa bar to meet any sauce requirements you may have. We ordered the carne asada quesadilla and the fish tacos and the cashier handed us a receipt with our number (without a thank you or any sort of acknowledgement). They have a machine that calls out the numbers for them as food becomes ready for pickup. We grabbed our selection of salsas and sat down. A short while later our number was called and we grabbed our food. The carne asada quesadilla comes with cheese and pico de gallo inside. I was surprised by the pico but it was tasty enough. That being said, I think it contributed to the tortilla getting soft too fast though so if I were to order again I might ask for it on the side. My partner had the fish tacos and said they were huge and tasty. All three salsas I tasted were delicious but I liked the red salsa the best over the green and the hot orange one. The orange was supposed to be the hottest but still wasn’t crazy hot like I’m used to.
Overall the food is great late night fare and maybe the cashier was just not having his best night. Hopefully they will be friendlier next time. La Fuente also has a drive through available and a few parking spots on the side if you’re lucky enough to nab one.

Legit got every single item wrong.
Didn’t get any of the extra rice or beans.
Didn’t follow instructions for the orders. And the rice was the worst rice I’ve ever had in my life, pretty sure it was made days ago. I’ve been in the service industry for over 15 years.
I mean read the ticket and the instructions and look at the pictures. And sorry I can’t take pictures of the extra rice or beans or tortillas, because we didn’t get it!

I ordered a breakfast burrito with a hash brown on the side. Burrito wasn’t bad, but hash brown was disgusting. This place is hit or miss, but seems to be more “miss” lately, so Al feeling like it’s time to go elsewhere.

This place is good for your traditional Mexican food. The place is fairly clean and open seating for both indoors and outdoors. They have a salsa bar with a large variety of flavors. I have had some burritos here and they are always good.
