Great place, my wife got the Super Burrito and I got the Chili Verde Chimichanga. Both were excellent, they serve two different salads, one is nice and spicy the other mild both were great. We will definitely be going there again.

5 Stars all around! The food is absolutely fantastic, highly recommend the Mexican City Tacos. Not only does the food taste authentic and homemade but the time they spend on the presentation really shows here as well! Not to mention the service here is way above average! They take the time to not only make sure you're always taken care of but to actually conversate with you as well If you're looking for some really good authentic Mexican food at a really good price this is it!

Too the wife and kid here for lunch. Fresh chips and amazing salsa. I got the street tacos each with a different meat (Carnitas, Asada) and every tasted super fresh. Wife got the Taco Salad and had to take home half it was so big. My kiddo is very picky and had tacos with just meat and cheese and said it was the best he ever had. My only complaint is being so close to other people while eating. My wife gets anxiety and we would have preferred a booth where we weren't so close to two other tables essentially touching elbows. Other than that everything was fantastic. Will definitely return.

The food tasted as good as it looks!! A cold blustery February day demanded a good hot plate of Chili Verde. This was our second visit to El Fogon. This little family owned Mexican restaurant continues to excel in food quality and service! A couple of years ago, we ate here a straight up 12 noon. The place was packed. What was noticeable then was that El Fogon is staffed sufficiently to crank out their tasty food for the big lunch time crowd. We had the Carne Asada and the Green Chili Burrito. Both excellent! Today’s visit was the Chili Verdi and an Enchilada & Chile Relleno Combo plate from their dinner menu. The Chile Verde was a large plate of filling, warming, delicious authentic chopped pork stew in a fire-roasted green tomatillo sauce. The huge combo plate was one ground beef stuffed enchilada topped with white sauce and one poblano pepper filled with cheese & topped with tomato ranchera sauce. Both meals came with rice and beans. Very flavorful, nothing bland on these plates! The salsas here are very good too. The red tomato based salsa has a little bite to it from the peppers, with garlic, chili powder and cilantro. The other sauce is a roasted pepper/tomatillo. Enjoyed them both. The service here is very good. The restaurant’s motto is “Everyone is Your Server.” They are true to their motto. Regardless of which waitress passes your table they will check on you! If you are looking for other Mexican restaurants in the area, check out my reviews in my collection "Jalapeno Highway" on Yelp. I've probably been there.

The service at El FOGON was top notch. You can tell their customers came back because they were treated so well :) Our meals were great, but I personally was a little disappointed in the chips and salasa... my wife loved everything, maybe my taste buds were off for a day, will try again because the service was impeccable :)

Unknowingly walked in right before they closed and still received outstanding service. Literally everyone working there was super friendly and our server was absolutely wonderful. Had the tostada and it was incredible. Also, when you go, be sure to get some of their awesome salsa to go (pt or qrt, I recommend the hot salsa). Will definitely be back soon!

El Fogon was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! The catered food was absolutely incredible—so flavorful and perfectly prepared—and the pricing was super reasonable. They were also so easy to work with, which made the whole process stress-free. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food! So many of them said it was the best wedding food they’d ever had and that they wished more weddings served amazing Mexican food like this. If you’re considering El Fogon for your event, do it—you won’t regret it. We cannot recommend them enough!

The shrimp burrito I had was delicious. And, the waitress was great. Checked on us & kept our drinks filled. On a recent visit, I had a chicken enchilada & chili relleno. It was delicious.
