" I would highly recommend Taqueria El Fogon for anyone searching for authentic tacos in Wichita. The al pastor tacos were a flavor explosion and everything felt homemade.While the cash-only policy might deter some, the generous portions and excellent taste make it worth it. The staff were super friendly. Just remember, it’s simple and rustic. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Taqueria El Fogon based on reviews, but unfortunately, my experience didn't match the hype. The tacos were alright, but I've certainly had better elsewhere. The service was a bit slow, and the overall cleanliness of the establishment made me uneasy. I appreciate the cash-only policy as it keeps things simple, but I left feeling underwhelmed. I might give it another shot down the line, but I won’t rush back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've come here a couple of times and the tacos hit the spot every time. Their al pastor tacos particularly stand out due to perfect seasoning. The ambiance isn't fancy, more like a quick bite place, but everyone is nice and friendly. Cash only, which shouldn't be an obstacle for such great tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely satisfied with Taqueria El Fogon! It's a cozy hole-in-the-wall place with the best al pastor tacos. The cash-only policy is a minor inconvenience considering the quality of food. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves authentic Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had mixed feelings about my visit to Taqueria El Fogon. The al pastor tacos were undeniably good, but I felt that the restaurant itself warranted some updates. Service was friendly but could have been more attentive. I also think it's essential to have enough cash on hand, but in a pinch, there's a bank nearby. Overall a good meal but room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Taqueria El Fogon was nothing short of fabulous. Seriously, their al pastor tacos are legit, bursting with flavor. The only downside was the lack of options for side dishes. The cash-only rule is something to be aware of, but it wasn't a dealbreaker for me. Will come back for sure when I'm in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're in Wichita and craving Mexican food, look no further than Taqueria El Fogon! It has the perfect blend of authenticity and flavor. I tried their burriots as well, which were fittingly large and filled deliciously with various meats. Staff are polite and attentive, although the cash-only policy is a tad annoying. Amazing flavors!
