This is a burger restaurant with delicious food!
A friend and I stopped in to sample a real, live Fuego Burger today for lunch.
The sign out front looks a bit "divey" and inside there is a cozy-dive vibe with some fairly eclectic decor.
There are a few tables, restrooms, and a couple of refrigerated coolers. No fountain drinks here but there are bottled drinks, tea, and free water. There are even some desserts in the coolers.
The person who took our order greeted us and thanked us for coming in. He could tell we were newbies and gave us a nudge in the right direction.
I ordered a Swiss mushroom burger and an order of Green Chile Tater Tots. All items are sold separate and they seemed a bit pricey to me. $13 for a burger and $8 for tater tots.
The order taker asked us if we wanted our burgers pink... eww. I definitely wanted mine well done.
We found a seat just before the place started getting busy, and had a few minutes to chat before our food arrived. Pretty loud in this small, echo friendly space.
Our food arrived and it looked pretty amazing!
The bacon was plainly visible between two fat buns. The chile tots did indeed have green chile stacked atop cheese covered tots, fried golden and perfect.
Alas, the beef patty was a hearty medium rare...
I didn't send it back but I always worry about hamburger meat when it isn't cooked all the way.
I did see that the order taker wrote a note stating how the meat was to be cooked but maybe the cook didn't see it.
Anyway it was very good and the tots were great too.
The buns were slightly sweet and complimented the burger well. The order taker advised that the buns were shipped from Houston and were a type of sweet sourdough.
Overall, my visit was very good. I would like to go again and check out some other types of burgers.
