A must in PDC! Fun environment, not fancy at all so don’t worry about eating tacos and sweat at the same time. Super fast service with delicious food and fair prices. Too bad I found this place on my last day, otherwise, would definitely go back.

Literally the best place to get tacos in this area, I’m very sad that they are now permanently closed at this location, I have tried 3 other places to get tacos and nothing will satisfy my taco cravings. If anyone knows if they’re reopening at another location please let me know! It would be greatly appreciated.

I really like a good burrito, and I try to eat burritos all over town. This place has the best vegetarian burrito in Tacoma, hands down! They have a fantastic mix of veggies beans and cheese and then they seal the burrito with a little bit of fried cheese and it's SO GOOD.Do your self a favor and get some, this place is amazing.

We were in Playa Del Carmen for the day recently. While shopping on 5th Ave., we asked a local about the best restaurants, were that the locals liked to go, not the tourists. El Fogon was the first place mentioned, and was recommended for tacos. We were so happy we tried the place. Early afternoon, mid-week, just after the place opened, and the place was hopping, not just locals, we were obviously not the only turistas who had heard about the place, and there were many repeat diners. The staff was great, super friendly; service was perfect, attentive but not intrusive. We received the complimentary dish of salsas, radishes and limes, and we ordered guacamole to begin the meal. It was fantastic. We also sipped on top shelf massive margheritas, which were also terrific. For lunch we tried the sirloin taco and the "Taco Loco," both were delicious. The Taco Loco was a massive burrito with bacon on top, filled with all the various meats available on tacos. Awesomeness! All of the salsas were outstanding, but our favorite had to be the green super-hot salsa. The meal was great, easily a 5-star lunch in a neighborhood taqueria in PDC. Highly recommend!

Good authentic Mexican food in a lively place. Fast and friendly service. Very generous portions. Much better than many much more expensive restaurants that serve the tourist industry.

We went to El Fogon after asking a hotel employee where would he take his family to eat in his days off. He recommended El Fogon and we are happy he did! The restaurant is very basic, but clean. At the time we went ( on a Tuesday evening during Covid) we were the only tourists and the place was full of locals. The menu is in Spanish only but the waiter translated it for us. The tacos and guacamole are to die for! Their margaritas are huge, and I mean huge and not watered down ( be careful loll). All in all, 2 adults and a teenager ate and had drinks , all for about $20. We cannot wait to go back in 2 months.

First time trying this local food truck. Always seeing people stop by so had to see what's up! Super flavorful and you get quite a lot for the price.

The Food is good but i had a Torta served with an avocado branch piece and when i took it to them they didnt even offer anything to make up for it, like a drink or something. Nothing but the food is good

Looking for the best pastor tacos In town? Look no further, this are definitely it. We are people who live locally and have been to this place with just about all our visitors and this is definitely a must. You also try their taco loco with is a big fat burrito with all sort of meats and cheese, it even comes with a chunk of beacon. Try with a bit of the red hot sauce, just a tiny bit though!
