| - Went here with a Groupon and had heard great things about this place so were looking forward to it. Had to make a reservation according to the Groupon, which is not what I like to do, but went along with "the instructions" . Got a nice table on the patio and order the made from scratch sangria and looked over the menu which seemed great. The sangria just didn't do it for me - it tasted a little off, if that is possible with sangria. I noticed that no-one else had ordered it around us, so I am guessing that was not the right thing to order.
I ordered the chicken and my partner the pork. We had the same sides of green beans and cornbread. The cornbread was good - we have both moved here from the south, so it was as good as what we were used too. The green beans were a little bland for me - I felt they were just like I cook them at home (i.e. nothing special !). The chicken itself was fine, just not a wow - I just can't tell you exactly why. I think there may have been too much going on with it, I am not sure, I just wasn't like "OMG I must have some more of this". The pork, to me, just tasted like shredded pork, again nothing special, but my partner really liked it.
Overall i was disappointed after hearing such great things about this place and have had better Latin American cuisine elsewhere at better prices as well - sorry Fuego Bistro.
