"Unfortunately, Fuego was quite possibly the worst dining experience I have ever had. The cocktails were not well made, the service was so backed up that in an hour and a half we hadn’t ordered dinner, and the appetizers were disappointing. The guacamole $18 was fine, but the choriqueso $16 was inedible; the chips were an odd mix of old/burnt house chips and what seemed like nacho chips. Due to what they called an error in the printed gratuity policy, the billing was also incorrect, which led to a weirdly aggressive confrontation with the manager the issue could’ve been resolved very easily had he not insisted on forcefully talking over us and trying to “correct” us with incorrect information . We probably would’ve been disappointed but accepting of the bad food and service, if not for the bad environment. We arrived early and were advised our request in the reservation for an outside table could be accommodated, with space being cleared so we didn’t have to be directly next to the VERY loud band. The unexpected noise problem posed a particular issue for me due to a disability. Inexplicably, a different hostess who had been less than polite to us and other guests at check in then told us no outside tables were available, before sitting us at an inside table directly next to the band, and then leading other groups to the supposedly nonexistent outside tables. I’d generally be remiss to attribute that kind of thing to discrimination but for the fact that we arrived early and checked in, twice, before the other groups—meaning, they either did not have an earlier reservation, or they did but arrived after their grace period. In either event, they shouldn’t have preempted our request based on the reservation policy. There was a glaring demographic difference in our groups, though. The disparate treatment made my group very uncomfortable. Also note no cell service or wifi, which is particularly challenging if you plan to use Uber/Lyft."

"A friend of mine recommended coming to this spot so I decided to take one of my friends here to celebrate her birthday. I called in to make reservations with a nice man for 1:30pm. When I arrived I parked on the street not too far from the spot. When we walked in I gave the server Mercedes my name for the reservation. As we waited for the manager to check she took our temperature. When the manager arrived, I forgot her name, she checked my name and said she didn't see it. I told her I called in and she told me they only take reservations online. I explained to her the online option only had outdoor so I called for indoor and the man took the reservation. The manager then tried to say they are booked and that she was sorry as in she cannot sit us. I began to get livid and told her I came from NJ for this spot and my friend, I name dropped, recommended it. The server Mercedes said don't worry and she would talk to the manager and to wait for a minute outside. They then let us in to sit after a couple minutes. The spot is fairly small fyi and they had music playing and a DJ come after. Mercedes came over and she was very nice. She took our orders and we ordered the pitcher of mimosas which was good. Had to send the glasses back because they were dirty. For an entrée I ordered the steak and eggs and my friend ordered the chicken and waffles. I didn't particularly care for the steak. It was kind of bland and so were the potatoes. The eggs were the best on the plate. My friend enjoyed the chicken and waffles. The bill came to $66, I paid and left. Not the best experience."
