In many cultures, food is a way to express love, to welcome friends, and to create family and community bonds. Those values are at the heart—or “corazon”—of our culture at Fiesta Restaurant Group. We chose the Latin American Tree Frog as our icon because its roots can be found in the tropical lowlands, throughout Central America, and into northern South America. It is seen as a symbol of luck, wealth, and prosperity. Fiesta brand have rich histories rooted in great food, hospitality, and warm service. To bring those qualities to life in our restaurants each day, we are committed to creating a unique and special culture that translates into our guest experience. We believe in the fundamental dignity and value of every individual, and we believe that everyone on our team has something special to offer. We look to reward and promote our people to reach their highest potential. Our “Pay It Forward” mindset includes our Fiesta Family Foundation. Created in 2013, the Foundation is a way for all of us to support one another in difficult times and to provide financial assistance for emergency housing, an unexpected illness, or other needs that arise and affect a team member’s life—because that is what families do.
