" I've frequented many Mexican restaurants and Fuego ranks high on my list! The tacos were fresh and packed with flavor. You can tell they care about quality ingredients. I loved the ambiance—perfect for a cozy date night or a casual meal with friends. The only downside was our server could have been a bit more attentive as we had to remind them for refills on drinks. Still, the food makes it worth it, and I’ll be back for more. Plus, the value is hard to beat considering the quality! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic dining experience at Fuego last night! The restaurant has a lovely ambiance, filled with vibrant decorations. My carnitas tacos were heavenly, bursting with flavor! I was impressed that I was given fresh lime and cilantro as extras. Only downside was that I did have to wait a bit longer for my drinks. Still, I highly recommend this place for its authentic cuisine and lively atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Fuego during a busy Saturday evening, and while the restaurant was packed, the vibe was still very welcoming. I ordered the smothered burrito and grilled shrimp tacos after hearing wonderful reviews. While the taste was fantastic, I found the portion sizes a bit on the smaller side compared to other Mexican places I’ve been to. Service was also sluggish, possibly due to the crowd. I enjoyed my meal but left a little hungry. I think I’ll try takeout next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fuego has a vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere that makes you feel welcomed immediately. I visited for lunch and ordered the burrito al pastor and tacos. I appreciate that they use fresh ingredients, and the flavors reflected that authenticity. However, I noticed that my burrito was slightly on the greasy side, which detracted from the overall experience. The service was friendly, albeit a bit slow at peak hours. Nonetheless, I found the prices reasonable for the quality of food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had quite the experience at Fuego yesterday! The atmosphere was filled with music and laughter from other diners. I ordered the shrimp tacos, which were delicious but slightly too spicy for my taste. My friend ordered a burrito and absolutely loved it. Our server was polite but lacked attentiveness, as we had to ask for things a couple of times. Overall, a solid local restaurant with great potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Fuego last weekend and was pleasantly surprised! I had the shrimp fajitas, and while they were tasty, I felt like the portion size could have been a bit bigger for the price. Despite this, the warmth of the atmosphere and the taste of the food left a great impression. I will surely return to try other items from their menu next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to give Fuego a try after hearing so many good things, and I was not disappointed! The ambiance oozes warmth, making it perfect for a casual dinner. I went with a couple of friends and we shared several dishes. The chicken enchiladas were a hit, especially with the homemade salsa on the side. My only complaint was that the service was a bit slow at times, especially when it got busy, but the food made up for it. It’s nice to find a place that serves authentic Mexican cuisine here in Maine. I’ll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
