Full service family oriented Mexican Restaurant.
La Fuente originated as the brain child of Ana Luisa Hernandez “Cowell” in 1999. Her first location opened January 3rd, 2000 in Fayetteville TN.
In 2004, circumstances occurred that required Ana to have a second restaurant as a backup plan. Thus our Pulaski Tennessee location was formed.
In 2006, an opportunity to open an 8,000sqft restaurant in Columbia Tennessee came available. Thus our Columbia location was formed.
In 2010 we purchased an existing 8,000sqft Mexican restaurant in Lewisburg Tn. We totally remodeled the restaurant with the intent to bring the authentic Mexican experience to Lewisburg.
You can decorate all you want but it comes down to the quality of the food, cleanliness, and employees. There are several grades of food as you probably notice when you shop at groceries store. We purchase the higher grade food from the nation’s largest food provider. It was also important that we are able to track our food purchases back to the producer. It may cost us more not to price shop but not all suppliers can provide the safe guards we demand.
Prior to going with them we visited their warehouse to see that it was well maintained to our standards. It helped that Roger had a background in maintaining the cleanliness of a food processing plant and brings that to La Fuente. We take pride in knowing that we maintain our areas not viewed by our customers to a high standard. We also take pride in how our food is handled and how our equipment is maintained.
Our employees are one of our most valued resources. While other restaurants see employee turnover, most of our employees have been with us for years and have grown to know our customers on a personal level. We like to attribute this to us to not micro managing and hiring responsible employees. Always feel free to practice your Spanish with them. They would love to teach you phrases.
Come in and experience a unique Mexican dining experience.
