“I can't say what I like best, because it is all delicious. I usually get the enchiladas huertenas because I can't decide if the mole, red sauce, or green sauce is better; they are all equally wonderful. So are their tender, flavorful tamales. even their chips & salsa are a cut above. Pickup during the pandemic is fast and painless, which we appreciate.“

“I highly recommend this place!! Staff is great & the food is beyond amazing.“

“Isabelle & Olivia facilitated a friendly & enjoyable atmosphere right when we walked in. The restaurant was clean, well-lit, and appropriately staffed with well-trained, knowledgeable, dependable, and hard-working people. We both selected salads with fresh ingredients. The grilled chicken & baja chicken were both good. The guac was fresh. The included chips & salsa were a bonus. Love this place - prefer to Chipotle which does not have fresh cilantro as an option and does not ensure the restaurant is clean & well-managed. The pico de gallo was low, but there was just enough for my salad. I look forward to eating here again.“

The eat in diners couldn’t stop praising his dishes. The way he works with his customers is amazing. My hat off to him and his staff. Keep up the good work, Andrew. My family will be back for more. Five Stars“

“We love this place! Authentic Mexican food and restaurant. People usually order out so we love coming here and enjoying the place with our daughter who LOVES the food. the Young lady who owns/cooks is very nice to our family. We just love good Mexican food!“

“My current top hidden gem for amazing and authentic Mexican food. Hidden in La plaza del Mercado, this spot has the most amazing tripe soup, where the tripe was properly cleaned, no funky taste/smell, cooked perfectly tender. Great caldo de res as well, the meat was tender and had a strong beef flavor, soup was light and refreshing and the veggies provided a nice natural sweetness and the squash was incredible inside. Their tacos are great as well and their pricing is a bargain and their portions are quite good.“

“1. Service was professional tacos were the best i've ever had in twenty years.Would I recommend this restaurant!!!! Absolutely. One hundred percent way better than the new haven trucks way better than any restaurant imitation mexican food!!! If you come here, not only are their prices reasonable, but try everything on the menu. It's phenomenal in the food taste very authentically quality.
5 stars, they deserve, bring your whole
family here. You will be very happy!!!!!!
2. If there was only one recommendation I would give for that extra star is to add more seasoning to your food. In any other case, your food is still the best that i've ever had mexican!!!!“

We went for Happy Hour today, Saturday 8/9/25... margaritas were perfect, my wife had the Chicken & Cheese Taquittos I had the Tuna Tartar Nachos and we shared Chips & Salsa. All was fresh & quite delicious! Isabella, our server, was great, friendly, prompt and on point! We highly recommend & will certainly return!“

“If you’re craving delicious, authentic Mexican food, look no further than Fuego Picante! This spot truly stands out, and their Birria Quesadilla is hands down the best I’ve ever had. The meat is perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy, paired with just the right amount of cheese and crispiness in every bite. It’s absolutely mouthwatering! The Shrimp Quesadilla and the Birria Mulitas are also pictured which are just as delectable.

The customer service here is top-notch – the staff is always friendly, welcoming, and eager to make sure your experience is fantastic. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their food.

One of my favorite things about Fuego Picante is that their food is always hot and fresh. Every dish I’ve had is served with care, and you can taste the difference in quality.

I also love that they post their hours on Instagram every day, which makes it super easy to know when they’re open. It’s a great little touch that shows they truly care about their customers staying informed.

Overall, Fuego Picante is a must-visit for anyone looking for flavorful, fresh Mexican food with amazing service. You won’t regret it!“

“I have been here several times and they never fail to amaze me. 110% AUTHENTIC- you will feel like you’re eating in Reynosa! (Town in Tamaulipas, Mexico- one the Texas border). The food is just amazing really… the service is great. I would definitely recommend this place!“

“Muy buen sevicion buena comida 🥘 y muy buen postre 🍨 hay todo“

“Just moved here and FB recommended this place off prior places I’ve visited in Arizona. I thought it was going to be a stand alone restaurant but it’s in this huge dining hall. The place is incredible. Literally a mix of everything for every walk of life and I highly recommend going down there just for that. Back to Burrito Loko. I had the Birria Tacos and they’re the best ive had in the area. My wife is super picky but said the steak burrito was good too, which says a lot honestly. We’ll be back, likely multiple times a week as there’s just a ton of great company there.“

“Some delicious tortas 😊😋 Some real Mexican food“
