I just found this place and I'm glad I did. The quesabirria tacos at Fuego Cravings Covina were really good -- crispy on the outside, cheesy, and packed with flavorful meat. They tasted fresh, had a great balance of texture and flavor, and the salsa on the side added a perfect kick. Definitely a solid spot worth coming back to if you're craving good quesabirria tacos

Breakfast burrito
Andrew G.

The breakfast burrito is worth every penny. This is the part where I talk about the ingredients and stuff to fill up the 85 characters they're requiring, but all you need to know as it is a bomb ass breakfast burrito.

Tucked away behind a modest storefront, this family-run gem pulses with life--bold red and black interiors, laughter rising above the hum of the kitchen, and the kind of service that feels more like a welcome home than a transaction. By the way, this place is located in a large plaza shopping center. Rene, the charismatic staff member who greeted me, guided me toward the Surf and Turf Fries--"one of our most popular dishes," he promised. I took the bait, and I'm glad I did. What arrived was a feast of contrasts and comfort: perfectly crisp fries buried beneath tender, char-grilled asada and crowned with plump, garlic-kissed shrimp. A verdant drizzle of creamy green salsa and a generous layer of melted cheese tied it all together into a bold, unapologetic bite of coastal street food indulgence. To wash it down? A large cup of Jamaica, refreshingly tart and vibrant, cutting through the richness like a breeze on a summer day. This is the kind of place you come back to--not just for the food, but for the soul it serves. Next visit, I have my sights set on the birria. If the fries are any indication, I'm in for something special.

Fuego Fries with birria
Janelle P.

Have been coming here for 1-2 years and usually always get the fuego fries with birria & a birria burrito ! Wasn't able to write a review yet because every time we go we pig out because it's so good! Fuego fries come with cheese and jalepeños, and your side of meat. 10/10 hits the spot for something snackish but also fills you up!

Street taco plate (asada, chicken and al pastor), rice, beans and chips. Comes with a drink also

3 stars because the food was.... :( . but they have the best cashier / hostess = Milady :D she was super great and nice and patient! Thank you!!! I feel bad abt writing this because Milady was suuuupeer great but unfortunately I usually write about the food so I can rememeber the places we'll go back to or not.. so here it is... We ordered: 1. Street taco plate (pick 3 meats) which consists of: A. Rice = undercooked and overcooked at the same time. Some were hard and some were super soft... tasted good but cook was inconsistent B. Beans = hubby liked it. Balanced taste and cooked well C. Chips = crunchy and fresh. Seasoned inconsistently but still good D. Chicken tacos = i liked it. Nothing extraordinary. Seasoned okay with hint of lemon, cooked evenly throughout. E. Al pastor = cooked evenly but lacked the usual pineapple taste / sweet taste. Decent. F. Asada = bland and tough. You'll see in the pic how it's pale looking.. 2. Shrimp tacos = hubby didn't like it.. I liked it coz it was salty and the sauce made it a bit sweet then fresh coz of cabbage. It was decent. 3. Birria in tostada = hubby was disappointed coz he said that birria is usually a bit red/orange and never bland.. the birria was pale and bland like boiled meat... I've read a bunch of reviews abt how great this place is, so hopefully today was just an off day.. but again, thank you Milady, ure so awesome!

Quesabirria tacos
Marissa T.

I was looking for a place to meet up with my friend that was visiting her brother in Covina and saw that Fuego was pretty close to her. First thing that caught my eye when I walked in was the aguas frescas. You order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. I ordered quesa birria tacos, my daughter ordered birria ramen and my friend ordered a mulita de birria. The birria was so good, it had so much flavor. I got an agua de horchata and the size of the mason jar was pretty big. The guy at the counter was super friendly and kept asking if we were doing ok. The place has a few tables and they had the tv on playing a movie. I will be back to try the rest of the food on the menu. Hidden gem for sure.

Fuego!!! I love the surf and turf tacos. I also tried the quesabirria, birria taco, fish taco, surf and turf burrito, and Covina burrito. They were alright. My whole party agreed that the surf and turf tacos are the best. We are honestly not really birria fans but it seems that a lot of people like it and it's clearly popular here. Service was great. I got a few cups of water and borrowed a bottle of salsa. The place is nice and clean. The complex is not busy and the restaurant was not crowded, although I came around 8:00 PM on a Thursday and around 2:00 PM on a Friday so that may be different on a Friday or Saturday around 7 PM. My critiques would be: the "sour cream sauce" and "guacamole sauce" are a bit watery, and the Covina burrito had too much rice and beans. But the surf and turf tacos make up for that. I'd come back just for the surf and turf tacos. The prices and portions are good for me, especially compared to where I'm from - the San Francisco bay area.

Surf and Turf Fries: These fries were supposed to be "seasoned." Looks nothing like the photos.

I've been seeing this place on DoorDash and had it bookmarked for a while. I finally decided to give it a shot, but I don't understand the raving reviews? We ordered 2 green chilaquiles bowls (one w/ asada and the other w/ pastor) and the surf & turf fries - to go. The chilaquiles were soggy and flavorless. The description for the surf & turf fries stated that they were "crispy" and "seasoned." However, they fries were plain, soft and bland; no crisp whatsoever. Overall, after spending $45, we were super disappointed.

i eat birria like once a year because i crave so much and then become sooo full of it lol usually always order the birria taco with cheese but why not go big! with the birria pizza -- comes with 2 consume and packed with flavor. honestly rly good proportions of protein and cheese and the soup always yommy i can drink on its own ~ also the staff here is very friendly and helpful :-)

We were craving some birria and found this place with great reviews. We came in at around 5-6PM on a weekend on found it pretty empty, but was kindly introduced and told how to order with the wait staff. We got a total of 9 birria tacos with some consome along with a horchata drink to wash it all down. I personally mainly enjoyed the horchata, it was nicely sweetened without being overly powering and was a pleasure the drinks. The birria tacos to me were a bit dry (making the consome a must buy if you are ganna try these), and felt a bit smaller than I would expect for 5$ a taco, but otherwise they were a decent snack. Definitely loved the consome tho so would be interested in trying their other options like their ramen. Otherwise, was a nice small homey feel with decent food.

Birria Fries
Cindy S.

My mom and I visited for the first time a couple of days ago, and unfortunately, we left a bit disappointed We had asked about the quesa-birria tacos and their size, and were told they were larger than the regular tacos. Based on that, my mom ordered two. I was even surprised because usually quesa-birrias are huge! I ordered the birria loaded fries. When the food arrived, we were really shocked at how small the tacos were -- they looked more like regular-size tacos, not larger. The fries also looked great but tasted a bit bland despite all the toppings; it felt like something was missing in flavor. We came in really excited and wanting to love the food, but sadly it just didn't live up to our expectations this time.

Tacos

I was pleasantly surprised how flavorful the birria quesadilla tasted. It did not disappoint with the traditional flavor of juicy birria and they use extra cheese. Third street tacos are very good. The meat is savory and the tortillas do taste homemade, on the thick side.

Daniel S.

I've been coming to Fuegos Tacos for over a year and usually have great experiences. Today was different. I asked for no onions, but all three of my queso birria tacos had onions when I got home. It was frustrating and disappointing. I might give them another try later, but for now they're on a timeout.

Went out for lunch on St. Patrick's Day and had such a great experience! The place wasn't too busy,…read morewhich made it even more enjoyable. Carlos took amazing care of us from start to finish--super friendly, attentive, and just has a great overall vibe. He greeted us right away, prepared our drinks himself, and kept checking in to make sure everything was perfect without ever being overbearing. The food was delicious, and the drinks really stood out--especially the spicy cucumber margarita, which was absolutely top-tier. Overall, fantastic service and a really enjoyable lunch. I'll definitely be coming back!

My friends and I had plans to go to ZAMA and found out it was closed so we had to find a new place…read more We ended up here just based off the pictures. Let's start with the margarita I got, I did not taste any alcohol in it (and I cannot have strong drinks! So that can tell you a lot) not worth $18. We basically paid for an expensive agua fresca! Then I ordered the carne asada skewers. The first bite was okay, not very flavorful, but I thought I could just finish it. As I go through the meat, I notice so much fat and very little meat. I grab another piece and bite into it, I start chewing and realize that it tasted like raw meat (with a hint taste of raw meat that spent too much time in the fridge) I immediately got nauseous and spit it out on a napkin. I told our server and he asked me what else I would like. I then ordered the fish tacos, he brought it out in less than 5 minutes (kind of fast if you ask me) I try a small piece of the fish and it wasn't bad, I give a piece to my friend and she only got fat. Why is there fat in my fish tacos! I tried to pick through it so I could atleast get full, but I couldn't do it. The server came to pick up our plates and asked me if I didn't like the tacos, I said no but that's okay don't worry about it. I was so disappointed because I was starving. My friend ordered the rib eye tacos and had to pick through it too because most of it was fat. The only good thing that happened was that our server did not charge me for the two plates that I didn't eat. We thanked him, paid the check and left. Unfortunately, this was not the best food and we were excited to eat and celebrate my birthday.

Cute little spot, very clean and open space…read more We got there right when they opened for breakfast. My husband got the chilaquiles, he has they were flavorful and the chips were crispy & everything was fresh. I ordered the enchiladas, the sauce was tasty and the chicken was delicious. I was worried it would be boiled chicken but the chicken had onions and good spices. The rice was so yummy!! The margarita was a good size, perfectly sweet and the chamoy rim was a yummy touch. We were the only people in the restaurant, they open at 9 & we got there at 9:03. The waitress was friendly and attentive. We will be back for their $6 Monday Margarita specials and to try other dishes. The food tasted pretty authentic and the price point was great. Chilaquiles with rice & beans $12 (+$6 for meat) Enchiladas $18 Margarita $6 (Monday special)

Early this year our visit to Origen Mexican Cuisine....We decided to dine in instead of takeout,…read morethe carne en su jugo was absolutely packed with flavor, warm, savory, and the kind of dish that feels like true comfort food. Perfect! The wine-based cantarito paloma was a fun twist on a classic and beautifully presented. Great balance of citrus and spice with that Tajín rim but would prefer tequila instead of the fake stuff lol JUST SAYING... Service was friendly, not too attentive but ok, the ambiance was relaxed and catered to our kiddo by putting on a movie for him that was kind of them.... A great spot in San Dimas for some somewhat authentic mexican flavors....we would give it another shot again... see what else we try next time.

An evening here feels, at first, like an invitation into something refined--dim lighting, polished interiors, and a menu that promises indulgence. The mole poblano delivered beautifully: rich, layered, and deeply satisfying. The ahi tuna ceviche followed with freshness and elegance, showcasing the kitchen's true capability. However, not every detail carried that same intention. The guacamole lacked depth and seasoning--unexpected for a restaurant at this level. But the most defining part of the experience happens before you even sit down. With valet as the only real parking option (approximately $35), guests are required to wait outside in a crowded, unpredictable environment. During my visit, the atmosphere felt chaotic and, at times, unsafe. What stood out most was the absence of a consistent, visible security presence at the entrance. For a restaurant of this caliber, a dedicated security guard stationed at the entrance should be standard--not optional. Managing the valet flow, maintaining order, and most importantly ensuring guests feel safe and comfortable should be part of the experience. Javier's delivers moments of excellence on the plate--but true luxury is holistic. It's not just what you serve, it's how you protect, welcome, and elevate your guests from the very first step.

This is a very cute restaurant for breakfast/brunch! We came to try it on a Wednesday lunch…read more We ordered steak and eggs, the steak was not good, very rough. I wish they charge more but give a better quality steak. But the way they flavored the steak was very good!! Then we ordered the smoked salmon benny, very delicious! Loved everything about this dish!

Let me start with the coffee and hazelnut latte, amazing. We were seated quickly, which was nice,…read morebut then it took about 10-15 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. Servers kept walking past our table without checking in and honestly looked kind of lost or wandering around aimlessly. Luckily they keep water pitchers on the tables already filled, which now makes perfect sense considering how long it takes to get service. Smart move on their part. I ordered the avocado toast with a side of bacon, and my husband ordered the chorizo skillet. The coffees and my food came out quickly, but his never did. Instead, we watched an older server walk around the restaurant with his skillet and bacon, stopping at multiple tables asking if it belonged to them. Twice she set it down at other tables before being told it wasn't theirs. The third time, she finally brought it to us. That seems like it should be a health issue, what if someone else had stuck their fingers in it not knowing. By then, my husband didn't even want it anymore because it had already been sitting in front of other people. To their credit, they remade it, but then we waited another 15 minutes for his food while I had already finished eating. We actually watched another couple sitting next to us get so frustrated because their order was completely forgotten. After waiting forever with no food and barely any acknowledgment, they eventually just got up and left. Overall, cute spot and really good coffee, but the service was incredibly disorganized and the food mix-up was a huge turnoff. Unfortunately, we won't be back.
