LA FOGATA

Found this little hole in the wall by accident. Authentic food, fresh, hot and tasty. It has climbed to the best Spanish food I have ever had. Portions are HUGE. If your passing through Shelbyville, skip all the fast food places and try this place. Its well worth it.

Authentic Mexican cuisine with a wide variety of meats to choose from. Family operated, staff is friendly and helpful. Dining area is very casual and clean. The mole sauce is rich, smoky, spicy and the best I have tasted. Prices are modest.

If you know me, you must know that it is rare for me to give a restaurant or any place a 5 star rating. This restaurant has the most authentic Mexican food you will ever find in Kentucky. Even though it is in Shelbyville County, I would truly recommend going there if you want real authentic food. We really enjoyed it. I could tell that all the vegetables were cut at the moment as they looked fresh. We also had a Michelada. I was, quite refreshing. The bathrooms were absolutely clean. And with people coming in and out, you can tell They love this place and it stays busy. So give it a shot and stop by. It's a 25 -30 minute drive from Louisville, but it is totally worth it. If you want really fresh and authentic Mexican food!!

When you enter a Mexican restaurant and it’s full of Mexican people, you know you’re going to have an awesome meal and experience! From the warm greeting and excellent service to the scrumptious meals and homemade tortillas, this place rocks! It’s among the best Mexican I’ve ever had - for real!

Off the charts!!! Best Mexican ever. Most authentic I have ever had. We had home-made salsas and chips. Guacamole. Burritos, quesadillas, tacos, Gorditas, huaraches.
