La Fiesta - Chualar

The best kept secret in the Central Coast as far as I'm considered when it comes to MASA I know I know when Charritos stop doing it we were all devastated and we all thought the only option was another bakery on the other side of town. Showed up and the line was blocks and blocks long and I would never wait that long and my hubby reminded me of the place in Chular that his customers told him about and we were off! 10 minutes from Salinas and right off the highway super easy to get to. When we arrived there was a abuelo sitting there munching some pan drinking coffee (reminded me of my grandpa so much) he helped us with a smile and some of the best masa ever, that was 3 years ago and we've been back ever since. I appreciate them their kindness and love he puts into the masa you can tell. My hubby is always quick to remind us that he saved Christmas lol and honestly he did! I don't know what I would have done without knowing about this place I know some people might be like damn this girl is crazy about the masa but see this is our PROUD family tradition and now the wonderful man at la fiesta is a part of our family tradition so yeah. I'm so so thankful for this place and look forward to many years more

Extraordinary atmosphere and very attentive service. The menu was crisp and delightful. Will absolutely recommend this restaurant to my friends. Convenient prices and large portions. Keep it up.

Best carnitas ever had till this day, my Dad ?, rest in peace, brought me here when I was young boy, and now I bring my kids here and they really enjoy it as much as I do, local spot for many year s, 30+ years of enjoying delicious ? carnitas, easy on and off freeway access, if your a trucker must check out.

They serve big portions and for reasonable prices. very kind owner. 5 stars from me.

I love this place thank you julian Rodriguez for taking me there the best carnitas ever cant wait to go back soon
