| - Fuegos is still working out some kinks as a new restaurant. Some seafood aspects of our meal, were "best I ever had" good. Overall, we did not have the best experience here. I do think we will be back for mainly seafood dishes, their weekday tapas happy hour deals and brunch $12 bloody Mary or mimosa pitchers. I do think we will not be back for a while though, because our service was very slow.
Drinks - My boyfriend had a traditional margarita and I had sangria. Both these drinks were great. I loved my sangria.
Tapas - The waitress told us that the entrees were large enough that you didn't need to order tapas in addition to main meals, but we did get one. We decided to get the grilled octopus. It was the most delicate octopus I've ever eaten. I would recommend this dish. My boyfriend also got the seafood bisque that was awesome, full whole shrimp in it!! I got to take a few bites, it was great.
Entrees - I got the deconstructed paella. I didn't have a clear understanding of what that was going to be and I was surprised when it came out as a seafood platter with a side of rice. Nonetheless, it was delicious. I would recommend, but understand that it is not traditional paella. Secondly, my boyfriend, got the 8 oz steak. He asked for it cooked medium rare but he said it came out blue rare. He was disappointed (he's a real big steak eater).
This comes to the slow service aspect of our dining experience...we had a 7 o clock reservation and we needed to be on the capital square at 9. The problem was, he wanted to send his steak back, but we didn't have the time to because of how long it took to get our meals in the first place. We didn't get out of the restaurant until over and hour and a half after our reservation time. Fuegos was busy but not packed, many empty tables next to ours. We saw 4-5 tables who were seated after us, get served before us without a word from the waitress. When she did come back and acknowledge us, she would not clear our dishes on our small table. We sat Infront of dirty dishes for almost the entire experience. Don't get me wrong our waitress was very pleasant, but we did not feel very cared for. The hostess was very aware of what was going on and started clearing out dishes and had the waitress give us a free dessert for the wait. The chocolate cake was also tasty, but we wouldn't have ordered it, if it wasn't free.
All in all, we really hope this is not a regular thing for fuegos. The location of the restaurant is prime. The ambiance of the place = A+. Their seafood and drink game ...on point! We will be back later...after a breather.
