My husband & I have been to Fuego Bistro on Palo Verde a couple of times and love the food. One of the waitresses told us that they are opening a new location, we were anxious to try it since it's on the same street as our apartment.
This restaurant is big with A LOT of t.v's, it has a sports bar feel.....I don't like sports bars.
Anyway, we were seated promptly and approached immediately by our waiter who brought us chips & salsa. The salsa was very good. We started with the empanada appetizer which was delicious (it is the same empananda as Fuego Bistro, but that's okay because it's good). I ordered the grilled chicken taco platter with rice & beans. You can choose between black beans & refried beans. The black beans were void of flavor. I added salsa to the beans, didn't work.
My husband ordered the pulled pork sliders that came with seasoned sweet potato fries. He thought the sliders could have used more flavor. He added salsa to his sliders, it punched it up a little bit. The seasoned sweet potato fries were the bomb-diggity.
To whom it may concerns: add a bouillon to the black beans as it's simmering, it adds tons of flavor.
