“ El Fogon! WOW!! Food - most food for your dollar!! The portions are incredible and the food, delicious! The staff at El Fogon are friendly and helpful. My Wife cannot stop talking about their Birria Quesadillas!! Gotta get the consomme. Their Burritos though! Massive!! They have awesome daily deals too. ”
“ The food is absolutely delicious!!!!! This is my favorite restaurant for Mexican cuisine. Everything here is so flavorful and tastes so fresh. I can taste the tomatillos in my enchiladas. Nothing short of perfection. However, this food is not meant to be reheated and that's okay! In my opinion the flavors get dull after putting it in the fridge and trying to eat it again. You have to get this food right after it's cooked. This little gem can get packed quick but the food is worth the wait. ”

“ As prev stated from other people... if you're looking at reviews from this place bc of the brilliant marketing on Social Media... Yes the food is amazing and yes you need to stop by! Had the Ribeye Chilaquilles absolutely delicious. Looks just like it does on IG and twice as delicious! My only thing would be that it didn't come with a side of tortillas. Would have loved to sop up all of the extra sauce... IYNYK... But still 10 outta 10! ”
“ Portions are huge. It's one of the biggest burritos I've had. The Fogon Burrito is good comes with Asada and Al Pastor, Rice, Beans, Guacamole, Chipotle Sauce and Cheese. The salsas were a little flavorless, but the horchata was good and full of spice. Will be back ”
