Fuego

I had the house margarita. My husband had a day of the dead craft beer. He really enjoyed it. The food was tasty! I had the steak fajitas, my husband had tacos and my kids had tostadas. Make sure you ask for the habanero salsa. It has a great kick. The owner sent out the chorizo and cheese dip complimentary. We couldn’t stop eating it. The waiter Dravin was so pleasant and attentive. All in all it made for a great night. I can’t wait to go back and try their signature margarita next!

Went there for lunch. Took over an hour to get our horrible food. I only maybe ate 3 bites on my plate. The owner came over and asked how everything was and commented that the soup must be good because it was gone and then he looked at my full plate and walked away. Don’t ever go here. Any hole the wall mexican place is better this.

A group of us ended up here Monday for lunch after discovering Burger Antics was closed on Mondays. Booo.
Took forever for us to get our food only to discover that it was barely palatable.
The only reason they deserve 1 star is because the waitress was very sweet.
The chips are definitely store bought and the salsa had no kick whatsoever. I asked for spicy salsa and I’m not sure what they brought out but it didn’t taste anything like any salsa I or anyone else at the table had ever had. It had a very funky taste like it had been sitting in the fridge a year too long. There were six of us in the party and not a single one of us liked our food. I would highly recommend against going to this place.

A friend and I came here early afternoon on Tuesday. I wanted to like it. We sat at the bar, and the server was mopping up. Found out it flooded from a quick, heavy rain. The one washroom was out of commission, too… we found out after 2 beers.
I asked the difference between a burrito and a burrito suprema. Found out the burrito suprema is 2 small burritos, no rice or beans on the side. The burrito is one larger one, cut in half, also no rice and beans (they are extra). Had the regular burrito, steak. There was hardy any meat on it, some beans in it, some tomato, and lots of lettuce. The 2 folded ends were all tortilla folds. Not much flavor, not much food.
The beans and rice were ok.
I also had them roast an jalapeño. .which was the best part of the meal.
The chips were heated store bought, the salsa was decent.
We were the only ones in the place.
The server was a beautiful young lady with a great smile, very pleasant and friendly.
We walked a couple of doors down to the Sanctuary, to use the washroom and I wish we had chosen to begin with. Some regulars there recommended the food at Sanctuary over Fuego. Stayed for a beer or two at Sanctuary and had a better time.

Plan to wait for service and your food, and check your bill! They have some good food specials during the week (Taco Tuesdays, $ 1.99 kids meals on Mondays, etc.). One evening, it took over an hour and half to get food for 4 (2 taco salads and 2 kids meals, with no condiments for the taco salad). You’ll pay extra for cheese, which is white American cheese. When one waitress learned we were getting 10 $ 1 tacos and 2 sides of rice, she took away the couple of remaining tortilla chips we had and told us we couldn’t get a second basket because we’d ordered the taco specials. We’ve gone there 5 or 6 times, and we’ve been drastically over-​billed 4 of those times (didn’t ring up the food as the daily special and charged us for the sides of rice that were supposed to be part of the kids’ meals. Unfortunately, getting the bill fixed takes FOREVER). I like the chicken tacos and taco salad, although there are no tomatoes in either, and the chicken’s lean but bland. (I actually don’t mind bland food, though!)

Slowly liking it more. I’ve had problems in the past with this place but my son likes it there and they have great tacos and friendly staff

We stumbled upon this place after going to the zoo. We knew there was an issue when the waitress asked what we wanted to order and never gave us a menu in the first place. The place was not busy at all with two other couples there. The food was bland, tasteless. As someone mentioned the chips and salsa were store brought, but maybe a year ago as store bought chips are much better. My friend ordered a steak meal and he could not finish it as it was tough and rubbery. They took the item off our bill, offered another meal, but he had enough based on everyone else’s food. Cannot believe this place is in business, stay away.

There are four things that always standout: great service, good food, poor service and terrible food. This place has the first two, great service and good food! We were there celebrating a friend’s birthday. The service was very attentive and catered to our needs. The food was great! Would definitely come back again!

Spent Saturday afternoon here with a couple good friends– great drinks, great food, great service.
I love love love their steak fajitas. The only thing is the food takes a long while to come out.

Great place for lunch, family dinners, date nights and parties… Awesome tequila selection to put your Margaritas on point (#1 in my book)
I love the Carnitas on Taco Tuesday

the food was bad and it took forever. the quesadillas had some sort of cheese sauce instead of quesadilla cheese which was not great. this server was slow and made mistakes even though we were the only people in there. the salsa was bland and the chips were store bought. I recommend going to the sanctuary if you’re in that area as the food is much better

I thought the food here was very good. Good margaritas. Nice atmosphere. I tried 3 different salsas… regular, verde and hot. All three were excellent with the hot having a citrus flavor. The guacamole was extremely good. The steak taco was ok but the carnitas taco was better. Service was a little slow but there was only one server.

Been there a few time now — great beer variety, everything I’ve tried is amazing, great atmosphere — We had the owner (super nice guy) cater a group event for us too, AWESOME!!!

I love Mexican food. I want to love this place. Really want to love it. It’s just not good. We ordered delivery this time. I got a torta. The boyfriend got a steak quesadilla. And we got an appetizer of guacamole. The torta had no flavor. Very little meat. The quesadilla tasted ok but they didn’t include sour cream which i thought was weird. The guac was on point. And they did give us some salsa and chips which is a nice touch.
There’s nothing special about Fuego and that’s really disappointing.

Let’s start off with saying the tables are dirty. The menus where sticky. Ordered the 8oz ny steak 5min later guy comes out of the kitchen and says we don’t carry that. I have carnie. I said fine I would like it medium rare.
It was so chewy and rubbery.

Good local, family owned place.
Having grown up about 3 blocks from where the restaurant is, I’ve seen probably 7 or so businesses come and go in the very location of Fuego Cantina. This place is solid and I hope it sticks around.
I got back into the burbs to visit my parents at 3 pm on a Friday, and I was starving. With my parents’ fridge full of gluten free food, I decided to walk into town and go into the first place I saw. Luckily I love Mexican food.
The menu is typical mexican, with entrees ranging in price from 10 to 20 dollars, most on the lower end of that spectrum. I got the enchilada sumpreme, which comes with four medium sized enchiladas of different kinds: chicken, beef, cheese, beans. I was so hungry I cleared my plate in about 10 minutes. Delish.
Overall thoughts: nice staff, family run place, good service, good food, and fast service. If you live in the Brookfield area it is worth checking out.

Good selection of beers. I asked for a spicier sauce they made it — and it was good ! Good local place ’

We just moved to Brookfield so we walked downtown to find a place to eat. We have an 8 month old and so we were looking for kid friendly. This was the place for that! We walked up to the door and a server met us outside and offered us to come in but we opted to sit outside. They happily accommodated us. Service was pretty fast and extremely friendly. Especially to our baby. They removed a chair so the stroller would fit. Servers and bussers would come outside just to see and talk to the baby. It may have been overkill but when you have been treated badly at other establishments just for having offspring, you welcome the positive attention.
Chips and salsa were good. Our dishes were ok, everything tasted fresh and they were heavy on the cilantro which I love. A decent sangria. This will be our go-​to place from now on.

Im giving this place a little lee-​way here. They seem kinda short staffed and a new business in the area. They don’t really do a good job of answering the phone. lol
However, This place served me one of the cleanest tastiest burritos I have ever had!
The chef came out personally to ask me about my order. very friendly real nice guy.
I am very picky when it comes to mexican food. I will definitely be back!

I work in the area and we love getting food from here for lunch. The white queso dip is awesome, especially with chicken or beef in it. The salsa is phenomenal, I’ve eaten just that and chips for lunch. The quesadillas are yummy, the guac is pretty good, and we also like the appetizer combo, which comes with a bunch of the above yummyness. The beer selection is pretty cool, they have two of my favorites, 5 Lizard and 5 Vulture. I’m so glad this place is super close to work with delicious food and great service. Shannon is one of the nicest waitresses.
