    Classic and spicy pineapple margaritas
    Mike K.

    Stopped in on a Sunday morning as they were opening immediately greeted and seated by our waiter and as we found out restaurant manager Dan. The restaurant is small but has a great vibe with the music you might expect playing in a Mexican restaurant loudly but not overwhelming so. We immediately ordered margaritas which were absolutely delicious. We also placed an order for some apps, nachos and fried mac & cheese balls which Dan recommended they both came out hot and fresh and frankly not greasy which is sometimes a problem when you get nachos. I found them to be tasty. Our mains consisted of a Mexican Caesar which was crisp and well dressed and the El Chappo pizza which looked stunning tasted great but was extremely greasy. All in all I'd say the food was a 3.5 but that may just be due to our choices. We did order fried ice cream which was outstanding definitely a 5 out of 5. I plan to come back for tacos

    Watermelon Margarita
    Ashley M.

    What a fun new place to try! I came with my friend for happy hour and we both had a great time. Very aesthetically pleasing on the inside with upbeat music. They have an extensive menu with tons of taco options. I went with the spicy vegan which was so fresh and flavorful. Had to get a watermelon margarita as well which was also very fresh and strong. I will definitely be back!

    Tropical Shrimp Taco Steak Street Taco (hard shell)
    Chris A.

    The service was very good here and quick. Nice that they have the four dollar tacos on Tuesday . The inside is really nice and very pop-culture . There is a great beer selection as well. I tried the street steak taco. The flavor was OK. I also tried a shrimp taco. That was delicious. I would recommend it.

    BBQ Chicken Burrito
    Kerri B.

    The food tasted great, definitely an excellent taco spot. There is a list of specialty tacos, our friend enjoyed the birria the most(he ate his fast, no pics)....the bf tried the bbq burrito, he really enjoyed and everything tasted fresh and had a great BBQ flavor...I got El Chapo Pizza, that is a birria lover's dream! Cheesy, beef cooked perfectly, great dip as well! (Napkins are a must). Can't wait to come back! No alcohol, apps, or dessert were purchased, but look amazing* We were seated right away, there are a decent amount of tables, the Mexican modern look was very instaworthy as well! Our server was helpful and the kitchen runs fast...BTW, prices are not bad at all!

    Trio of Salsas
    Chip P.

    I loved the predecessor in this space, and was able to try some of the Taco Spot's food when they helped out a local PTA (kudos!) so I was excited to try them for a sit down lunch. Overall, it was a solid taco lunch. The space inside is cool, the service was friendly and helpful, and the food was very good. The only strike in offering was that there was an odd smell when we entered - and it was very off putting. Hoping it was just a temporary issue. We got the trio of salsas to start. Chips were hit or miss, not all fresh, not warm. Queso was good, pico had some nice big chunks in it, but the guac was really cold (refrigerated, not freshly made). My friend got a burrito bowl that looked big and yummy. I got the Birria taco which was awesome with the consommé, and the fish taco which also had nice flavor to it. Prices were a bit steep for tacos, but isn't everything these days? All in all, I would definitely hit them up again for lunch if I was in the mood for tacos.

    The rice was amazing!!!! And the margarita was perfect

    My wife, daughter and I went last night the service was amazing and so was the food. This is my favorite taco place

    Kid's taco meal
    Brigid C.

    I'm always down for a new taco spot. The Taco Spot is pretty good gringo tacos. Ingredients were fresh, atmosphere clean, service fast & friendly. It's good for kids and their parents. Kids can get either a fountain soda or virgin pina colada with their meal. I got the veggie burrito. It was really good. The wrap wasn't the best but the overall taste compensated. The chips are definitely home made - a bonus!

Being Latina myself- I give more credibility when the ratings for a Latino restaurant are coming from a more diverse neighborhood. That being said, this place was a PLEASANT surprise! I really enjoyed the decor inside- it is so vibrant and lively! And it definitely is true to the Mexican culture! The service was also a plus- they were attentive and kind- this spot is definitely family run which I personally love to see! The food was delicious, we had: Beef Tongue Taco- The beef tongue is topped with a cilantro onion salad. The beef was so TENDER and decently seasoned. The only thing I would say is I'd like to see less onion, and more seasoning in the beef tongue. Otherwise they do such an amazing job! Shrimp Taco- The shrimp taco was delicious, but I think I would come back for the beef tongue taco specifically. Overall this was a nice experience, very authentic Mexican food! I will definitely be back to have some more beef tongue tacos and try some other things on the menu.

It was noon on the day before Thanksgiving, so the restaurant was pretty quiet, which was nice. We started off with a complimentary basket of chips and salsa, which is always a great way to begin any meal at Del Fuego. My nephew ordered the chicken quesadilla, which came with a side of fries. He loved it and finished every bite! I decided to go with the Santa Fe Caesar wrap with shrimp, and I was honestly impressed by how much flavor it packed. It was loaded with crisp romaine, vibrant corn salsa, creamy Caesar dressing, cotija cheese, crunchy tortilla chips, and just the right touch of honey-chipotle BBQ drizzle. SO tasty. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and added a great twist to the classic Caesar flavors. For drinks, I had a cold Modelo and my nephew enjoyed his apple juice. The service was just attentive enough. Our waitress made sure we had everything we needed without hovering. All in all, we were in and out in about 40 minutes, which was perfect for a casual lunch. Everything felt fresh and well prepared, and both the food and atmosphere lived up to what I've come to expect from Del Fuego locations.
