El Fogon Mexican Restaurant offers a wide variety of Mexican dishes, including carnitas, fajitas, and beef nachos supreme, all known for their great taste. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and provides gluten-free options, making it a welcoming place for everyone. It is praised for its authentic and generous food portions, as well as its outstanding service, where customers can feel the love and care from the staff. Guests enjoy a range of favorites, including Quesataco Birria, Fajita Quesadilla, Tacos locos, and Burrito California. There are healthy vegan choices available, such as the potato burrito, which can be made vegan by removing the cheese. The queso dip and guacamole are also popular, and the chips and salsa keep flowing freely. Customers appreciate the cleanliness of the restaurant, including the bathrooms, which feature a changing station. Ample parking is available, and the location is convenient to many nearby stores and restaurants. While some diners have noted that the food was just okay compared to other options, the service remains top tier, and many express a strong desire to return. However, customers are still advised that take-out nachos may not travel well.
