    Yes, their carne asada quesadilla is delicious. I have it sent by DoorDash and it is enough for 2 days.

    Shrimp Ceviche
    Antonio D. M.

    Made it to Fuego Prime in Lodi last Sinday. Good weather that day and almost sat in the patio but we settled in the smaller dining room inside to check the Olympic closing ceremony. The service was quick and friendly. I ordered a Mexican Coke and the award winning quesabirria tacos with that hot consume for dippin' and slurpin.' We also ordered the fish tacos, the shrimp ceviche, rice & beans onda side and the cheesed up jalapeños. Those cheese jalapeños were FUEGO!!That melted cheese encased a fresh, HOT , crunchy chili that had me almost tearing' up. Some were mild but some had that scolville scale turned all the way up. Don't be scared. Order them any and shed those tears proudly. @fuego_209 @downtownlodi

    Carne asada taco

    Stopped by this Mexican food spot and ordered the papa rellena with al pastor meat and two tacos to go. One of my tacos was missing, which was a little disappointing considering there wwas nobody else in the restaurant so it's not like they were busy. Partly my fault as I should have checked my order before leaving. The service was friendly and attentive, and there was plenty of outdoor and indoor seating with even bar seating. The food looked great and tasted good -- not amazing, but definitely satisfying. They did offer either green or red salsa, which I chose green and was mild. I do wish they had more variety. Also it did not seem like they have a salsa bar which would be nice. I wish they allowed you to order two different meats on the papa rellena but we were told that was not possible. Portion size of the papa rellena was decent, enough to share between 2 people. Overall, a decent experience with room for improvement.

    Chicken enchiladas

    Went for restaurant week today (Sunday late lunch). I was going to say everything failed except ingredient quality, but as I write this I just bit into a big piece of chicken gristle. I had enjoyed the Fuego truck in the past but have not been back there since having an unsafe experience being harassed in the parking lot. I ordered the Lodi restaurant week special. Chicken enchiladas with a horchata and churro donut. There was NO DESSERT I was so disappointed when I brought it home and so were the others who ordered specials. No mention of this or substitutions made. That's a main reason I went. The other main reason was I wanted a good enchilada. The enchilada itself didn't feel like an enchilada, but basic chicken tacos. I can barely tell if there's cheese and if there is, it's a tiny amount. The red sauce was also minimal, dry on top. An enchilada should be DRENCHED and CHEESY. These look nothing like others' reviews. This was like a rolled up corn tortilla other chopped chicken. The lettuce and tomato additions felt strange. The rice and beans are acceptable. The horchata was pretty good but aside from that I'm really disappointed. Lodi/Stockton has a lot of Mexican options with better quality and lower prices, they'll need to step up their game if they want to stick around. Seeing other restaurant week reviews I'm thinking this is an employee/service problem.

    Asada and pastor super burritos
    Jake M.

    Went in to pickup a pastor super burrito and an asada super. Staff service was just ok. They all seemed overwhelmed. Took like ten minutes to pay for my food because there was only one person capable of ringing me up and they had to make a bar drink. Was worth it tho. I'd recommend the super burritos. Very flavorful and correctly made. Lots of meat and proportional ingredients. Tortilla seemed homemade. Was excellent. I asked if there was hot sauce in my bag, the chick asked the chef if there was and he said yes. There was no hot sauce when I got home lol. Place is very small and every table had people seated. They need maybe one more person working. I saw ice cream the chef put out sit for like 7 min and it never got ran to a table lol. I'll be back tho. For pickup only. I recommend the pastor and the asada.

    My water...because I was never able to place a 2nd drink order
    Alex L.

    Came here recently for a family birthday dinner. We were put outside, temperature was 42 degrees...they did have heaters outside, but half of them were out of propane so didn't work. It was COLD...and my mom, being a little older, was having a hard time with the cold. Food took forever to arrive, and arrived in different sections, so we were eating while some people were already done eating. Drinks took forever, and I couldn't even order a second because they never came back to ask me for a second drink. Ended up just drinking water . Service was horrible, and I don't blame the server because she did apologize for everything, we understand it's out of her control. I blame the manager and whoever is in charge, you KNEW we were coming and didn't staff correctly. I ordered cheese enchiladas, got meat. My wife ordered flautas with no sauce, just on the side. The flautas were smothered in it, and she had to scrape it off. It was too spicy for her, so an inconvenience. But we weren't the only ones, and because the food took so long we didn't want to send it back. But there were multiple orders sent back, I don't understand why the orders were so messed up. Overall, will not come back. Again, don't blame the server, but overall management. Don't recommend.

    ceviche, al pastor tacos, asada tacos
    Cassie C.

    fuego was fuego for sureeee as you can tell we downed the micheladas because they were delish and we started to dig in before taking a pic. the ceviche was the al pastor and asada tacos were packed with flavor and loaded with meat! the ceviche was so fresh and the perfect meal on a hot day. already planning our next visit as we speak.

    Tacos al carbón
    Janet R.

    Came in on Saturday night and had a great experience. We ordered the tacos al carbón and margarita flight and both were excellent. Service was quick and our server checked on us often. The manager even stopped by the table. Fun atmosphere and we'll definitely be back.

    Pastor burrito
    Katrina R.

    Came here for there quesabirria tacos and let me tell you they were so greasy I couldn't even pick it up without it falling apart I was highly upset. Asked for asada fries instead and they came out with asada nachos asked for them to just take it off my check my girlfriend was already finished with her burrito and they bring out fries just miscommunication. I give the fries a 4/5 great flavor Menu had minimum option's My girlfriend had the pastor burrito She gave it a 2/5 no flavor. Drink menu is bigger than food menu. Service was good very understanding

    Decided to give Fuego Prime a try. Went on a Friday around 5:00. Greeted right away by a friendly employee and told we could sit anywhere. Restaurant is very small inside but has many tables outside in a gated courtyard. We ordered 4 different tacos, chicken enchiladas dinner and fresh made flour tortillas. After about 10 minutes the waitress comes back and tells us they are all out of chicken enchiladas. We decide not to add anything additional and will just try the tacos. Takes another 15 minutes for our taco to arrive. When I ask about my flour tortillas she goes to the back and returns telling me they are all out. As far as the tacos go, the homemade corn tortillas are spot on. Some of the best I've had. Taco filling was just average. We had chicken, asada, shrimp and Al pastor. Would be nice if they offered carnitas. Many taco trucks in town serve better. Training going on throughout visit on dining floor. Could be better served to do training outside of dinner time as it took away from dining experience. Not confident in a Mexican restaurant that runs out of enchiladas and tortillas on a Friday night. I would recommend you give them some time to get adjusted before trying. Not sure if I will go back.

    Horchata martini and another drink
    Jesse B.

    For just opening up this place is pretty good . It's a little on the small side so you most likely will have to sit outside . The service was fantastic , they were on top of everything and very nice . I will say though the outside is a bit deceiving, it doesn't look the nicest on the outside but don't let that stop you from trying it .

On our first visit today, we tried four different drinks and four menu items, and every single one was a work of art for both the eyes and the palate. The Shrimp Ceviche appetizer was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious, especially paired with the Mexico Lindo - Salsa Pan Negro sauce. The Aguachile Negro was incredible--a beautiful presentation worthy of butterflies, featuring fresh shrimp in a perfect combination of tangy, spicy, and slightly sweet black sauce. And let's not overlook the fish tacos--crispy fried fish topped with slaw, but it was the sauce that truly took them to another level. Each dish was unique in its own way, yet equally delicious. The drinks were just as impressive. The Entre Espinos was refreshing, blending cool lime with the subtle heat of jalapeño and agave. The Tequillero Mucho tasted like a berry mojito, the Mango Tequila Shot was fantastic, and you can never go wrong with a classic shot of Tres Generaciones. This was an outstanding first visit, and we'll definitely be back!

I had hesitations. It was pretty empty, all eyes on sports, no one greeted me for a while, the table needed a dust-off. I had expectations - like that the vegetarian burrito should have vegetables (this one is just rice, beans, onion and cilantro...). I thought that maybe since they have shrimp and enchiladas, that they would make a shrimp enchilada - they won't. The have beer, no wine, no margs. I was a hungry pescatarian, getting more anxious - but I stuck to the plan, and I'm glad I did. What I didn't understand was the authenticity. The rest doesn't matter. Yes, I was having a minor melt-down, so I kept things basic. Just cheese enchiladas. I was resolved to be disappointed. I was NOT. The enchiladas were EPIC. I asked for more sauce because I wanted to take a bath in it. I usually skip rice, I ate it all - so much flavor. The beans too - too delicious to be vegetarian - so I didn't ask, and I'll never regret. This place is legit - and I am sorry I ever doubted. I also tried my companions chile relleno, which I usually don't care for - and I LOVED IT. My other companion had carne asada, which I did not sample - but he said it was delightful. Yeah, I've got some LA attitude from time to time, but this place beats most of my LA haunts on flavor. So stick to the basics, don't be a snob, and you'll be in for a real treat.
