For their 20th wedding anniversary, Sara and Aaron Canary planned a trip around one simple idea.....doing less.

At Sol Bungalows in Bocas del Toro, Panama, the couple spent ten days enjoying ocean breezes, memorable meals, and time together. An overwater bungalow offered space to unwind, while a jungle chocolate farm tour and island-hopping excursion brought a little adventure to their slower days.

Their story is a reminder that sometimes the best getaway leaves room to simply be.

The best!!! 👏 🌮 🇲🇽 Fiesta Time Amigos

Three brothers. Seventeen siblings. One dream.

Before Fiesta was a restaurant, it was a family story built on hard work, sacrifice, and the belief that something better was possible.

Alfonso, Juan, and Luis started at the bottom, learning the restaurant business one shift at a time. In 2004, they brought everything they had learned together and opened the doors to Fiesta Time Mexican Grill.

More than 20 years later, their greatest legacy isn't just the restaurants they built. It's the culture, family, and values they passed down.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, we celebrate the three brothers who started it all, the people who helped build Fiesta, and the generations carrying it forward.

This is more than our history.
This is our heritage.
This is our family.

This is Fiesta. ❤️🇲🇽
