I viewed a posting on instagram stating that Grads eat for free and the rest of the party pay for their meals. When I arrived they not only denied that I read the flyer correctly but stated that could only be applied to a party of 4 and/or the grad will have to choose from a pre-fix menu ( they never provided that menu). Instead it ended up being $25 off the bill. I am thankful that I was able to pay for what I wanted but what happens to the family who want to celebrate their graduate but is on a tight budget and unable to pay the bill. The false advertisement to get people to come to your establishment was not nice and you are taking advantage of a celebratory moment that could have a been a disappointment for the individual who worked hard to accomplish a graduation. The owner of salsa con Fuego must do better because people support your establishment and it is okay to give back to the community. Without the community you would not. exist!
My family visited from out of the state. We chose this establishment from an advertisement. It did not let us down. The portion sizes are large and delicious. The atmosphere was fun and the restaurant was spacious. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive along with other staff that passed by. I would definitely come back. Highly recommend.
Horrible I reserved table and they never gave me a table I stand up all night had to eat and drink standing up
I spent nearly $400 at Salsa con Fuego for a special Mother's Day dinner, and unfortunately, the experience didn't meet expectations. For a place of this caliber, I was surprised and disappointed that drinks were served in plastic cups. The maturity and quality I expected just weren't there. It was clear the restaurant was short-staffed — service was slow and disorganized. We had to ask twice just to get water, and even then, it never arrived until well into the meal. Our table wasn't cleared in a timely manner, and overall, the service felt rushed and inattentive. I ordered the Churrasco, and to my disappointment, both the steak and rice were served cold. In fact, most of our food was lukewarm at best. The only bright spot was my mother's dish, which came out hot and was actually pretty good. In hindsight, we all should've just ordered what she had. The one highlight of the night was when the staff sang happy birthday to my mom — that was thoughtful and appreciated. But for a $400 bill on a special occasion like Mother's Day, the overall experience fell far short.
Maybe it was the mess of the brunch crowd and being understaffed for Mother's Day, but this place was a mess from the moment we walked in. It looked like a kids birthday party ran wild through the place and the staff was just trying to hold on. The food was very underwhelming. For our apps, we were given two shared towers of wings, fried chicken bites, calamari, and empanadas. Calamari was fishy (not in a good way) and thick, chicken bites tasted like they were bought from a supermarket. The wings and empanadas were both good though. Lots of flavor and well seasoned. For entrees, we got a couple different cuts of steak and lamb chops. The steaks that were ordered medium rare were okay. Everyone else got well done and I swear they are still chewing a day later. To be fair, I don't think that is the restaurant's fault. The lamp chops were really fatty and not a pleasure to eat. The sides were better than the mains. We also got fries which came ice cold. The service left a lot to be desired, but to be fair, I think they were overworked by that point. Overall, I'm not coming back unless they do some serious renovations or it's late at night and I can't see anything and don't order food.
Always enjoy myself
Imma Be honest..raw real but honest . I am not a fan of the place not because of anything they did personally the Thursday crowd is dusty but this is the Bronx .. now that we got that out the way ..
Last night has Been the first time in a year I’ve stepped in salsa because it’s just not somewhere I want to be seen.
But I went w the girls and it was a new female security guard . Black is gone and I must say she was at the very least nice and inviting . That new lady they got there chunky rough Trey songs braids .. mean af make you not wanna come in like she did way too much it's a party miss go find a job at corrections .. because the club is not it . She literally killed all joy fun and happiness upon entering the building.. mind you she had words and nasty comments for multiple females upon entering. And I don’t wanna hear she’s doing her job bring every guard yall ever had was better than that one.. also it was super dead last night looked like the ppl who got picked over in hs came to feel important I didn’t bother drinking because my friends who are regulars said that the drinks were even bad .. never going back .. I think who’s in charge now don’t want it to stay open long because absolutely not
The place, service and food was really good. Fresh and hot food served.

Security gave a friend of mine a difficult time bringing in his weed ( already rolled), meanwhile the whole place was filled with smoke. A female friend said she'd have to wash her wig after being there. Hyped up security and an ok atmosphere is what to expect. Food was mediocre.
The best comedy show and great food place is great. I'd go here again and again. Worth every penny.
So much cigarette and weed smoking. A LOT. The class level has DROPPED. Caught someone sniffing coke too. Why are people openly allowed to smoke weed inside? The appetizers either had no flavor or tasted like it was covered in Lowry's and baked in an air fryer. Anyway, I can't return. Not for me anymore.
Great food!! 💯 recommended
Me and my family bought the Easter brunch tickets we got there at 2:30 didn’t get inside till 4:15 waiting outside on the line with 4 kids crying and frustrated because we were all hungry and they had us outside still. Then they didn’t sit us down due to no tables but why book so many people if you know there aren’t that many seats we argued with the front desk people because they were letting people who skipped the line go in while we were still waiting since 2:30 we finally got at table at 4:53 after hours of waiting. The kids wanted to get an Easter face paint and that lady was so rude we left right away this was a waste of money. The staff was rude wait time was crazy even though our tickets was for 2:30 NEVER AGAIN.
