This place is in a good location, well lit, and easy parking. The hostess greeted us as soon as we walked in and we were seated within seconds. The food was good and the portion was acceptable for the price. The only reason I’m giving a 4 star is because the service was pretty slow. We ordered our drinks first and didn’t receive them until we already had our entrees and also our waitress was nice but not as attentive as she should have been. They weren’t that busy so I assume they didn’t staff it correctly for this particular night but overall I did enjoy my visit and will be returning.
We were very impressed with this authentic Mexican restaurant after it seemingly popped out of nowhere on HWY 72. Stopped in for a late lunch, and were blown away at the quality of food, atmosphere inside, and the attentive service. Prices were reasonable as well - especially the $6 margarita which was easily a highlight of the meal. The menu has a good mix of the sort of Tex-Mex style most folks might want, but also very authentic dishes from various across Mexico. Don’t let the giant fancy lights, signs, and exterior next door fool you - this is the superior Mexican food experience.
What an awesome new place! We stopped here for dinner tonight, and thoroughly enjoyed it! It has a great upscale atmosphere with extremely friendly employees....and the food is amazing! Their menu is HUGE, with plenty of variety to choose from...including a whole page of authentic Mexican dishes along with a nice explanation of where each item originated from. Fresh chips and salsa were nice...and their complimentary Creamy Jalapeno dip is to die for. My husband had the Primos Rice with Grilled Steak, Chicken, Shrimp and veggies over Mexican rice with cheese sauce, and he loved it. I tried the Tacos Gobernador...Shrimp tacos with grilled onions and smoky chipotle, fresh avocado and a side of house made slaw , corn and black bean pico, and Mexican rice. The portions were very generous...we had plenty of leftovers to take home. Our server, Keydenn was awesome.....and the manager/owner stopped by our table to chat as well. Definitely adding this place to our list of favorites. They are located right off of University Drive, so they are very convenient as well!
Fuego was nice! I didn’t really care for my entrée — I ordered the seafood enchilada, so maybe I just picked the wrong dish. However, the appetizer with the white and red dips was really enjoyable. My date rated his burrito a 7 out of 10, and I’d give my meal a 6 out of 10. I was very satisfied with the timeliness of the meal and enjoyed the conversation with our waitress. Overall, it was a nice environment with friendly service.
We had an amazing experience at Fuego Mexican Restaurant! The roasted corn queso dip was the perfect start-creamy, flavorful, and totally addictive. For our main meals, the quesabirria tacos and Pastor Loco quesadilla were both incredible-packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. We ended with the Mexican crème brûlée, which was a sweet, silky finish to a perfect meal. Every dish was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of authentic flavor. The service was friendly and attentive too. We'll definitely be back soon!
