It's the first week of the NFL season and I came to scout the place as a potential home for NFL games. I came early and my game was placed on one of the large television sets close to my table.
The chips and salsa were plopped onto the table not long after I sat down. Great chips and a salsa with a kick. Nothing overly spicy but enough to get me a little snotty. That's just how I like my salsa. I started of with a Dr. Pepper that was refilled over and over without hesitation. Filling my drink is essentially the only thing I look for in a server. It's make or break when it comes to tip time.
I ordered the Pernil Asado tacos (roast pork & mango salsa) as it sounded interesting. Not only was it tasty but the portions were generous. The ample serving of pork made this dish of great value.
The imported beer was pricey at $4 per pint but my drink limit is two when I'm out so it wasn't terrible. Fuego isn't a place I'd come just to drink at that price.
Service was very attentive and very friendly. Based on other reviews here I suspect there's been some change in staff or overly picky Yelpers.
Fuego Cantina is a great place if you ask me. I was more than impressed with the service and food and the layout of the screens is perfect for football games. I aim to make this my Sunday home.
