“Food is delicious! The langostinos are my favorite! The carne azada is always cooked to perfection and definitely a must every time we go. The mouth watering margaritas are tasty! I recommend the margarita flavor! A great place for a cute date night, family dinner or even a solo date! Karaoke night on Friday and Saturday is so much fun! The staff is nice.friendly and quick!”

“When everything in the area was closed, La Fogata was an excellent spot to enjoy authentic Mexican food after a long day of production work.”
“The 1st time I went there, I had a chicken torta. My grandson had the chicken tacos and My daughter had steak tacos. The horchata was one of the best I've ever had. I was only able to eat half of the torta, because it was so filling. I highly recommend going there. And affordable too.”
“LOVE the large proportions. Had to take half my burrito home and trust me, that never happens. Delicious too!”
