We went Saturday mid-day. Not crowded like some of the fun events they have (saw on IG). It was the perfect timing for a first timer. Our host happened to be one if the co- owners. We received patience as we were going through the menu and answered any questions we had. The decor and atmosphere was fabulous. Once you walk in. You are transported to another place. Truly a gem of a restaurant. The food was fantastic! read more

This review is based on the empanadas ordered fresh to go. My husband was taking a stroll in the area with the kiddo and decided to stop by and pick up some empanadas. He got the 6 pack of ham, mushroom and spinach, and onion and cheese. They were really tasty and came with chimichurri. I tried the spinach/mushroom with the chimi, the crust was fresh and the mushroom and spinach filling was full of flavor. I am totally looking forward to dining in. I managed to snap a picture before they were devoured l, not the best shot but I'll make sure to take better ones when we dine in. read more

My daughter and I stopped by for lunch to celebrate my birthday and I am so glad we did. Max hosted us and we had the most amazing lunch, 4 different empanadas -- try the spicy breakfast one! -- and the brownie ice cream dessert to share. A perfect lunch with the best service, music and atmosphere. 10 stars out of 5! read more

As someone who isn't really into bar culture, I appreciated that this felt like a bar with culture. The beef is sourced from Argentina, and you can absolutely taste the quality. I had the chance to meet one of the owners, Max, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming; that personal touch really added to the experience. I had such a great experience here! The vibe was on point: aesthetically pleasing, good energy, and a great place to meet people. Already looking forward to coming back for more of the beef empanadas and beef milanesa sandwiches again. 10/10! Thank me later y'all! read more

I had high hopes for this newly opened, quirky Argentinian spot. Argentinians are masters of grilled beef, and chimichurri, so my expectations were high. 5/5 = outside skirt steak + beef empanada + chimichurri + frozen raspberry The steak was tender with just a touch of chew. Outside skirt is a richer cut, and the bright, tangy chimichurri perfectly balances the intense beefy flavor and fat. The beef empanada was excellent, saucy, smooth filling wrapped in a flaky shell. Frozen raspberries are a fun treat. Wrapped in a chocolate shell and mixed with bits of ice cream, the berries still manage to let their unique flavor shine through. It's a layered yet cohesive experience, refreshing, balanced, and genuinely enjoyable. I loved their shrimp too, but my experience with the fries and bread made me question how fresh they were (even though the shrimp tasted good). 0/5 fries and bread. The fries were extremely stale, honestly tasted like frozen fries reheated at home. The bread was worse. One piece wasn't even properly heated. The outside was lukewarm, while the inside was rock-hard and ice cold. I did enjoy the quiet and eccentric dining room. And service is pretty attentive. However, I don't think it's worth a 30 min drive to visit. Maybe I'd consider pack many empanada to go though read more

Typically, you find unique dining experiences like this one in DTLA, but this one happens to be in the heart of South Central. I stumbled upon this diamond while avoiding the long line at Paseo San Miguel. I visited on a Sunday late afternoon, so there was no wait and no hard time finding parking. At first glance, it looked like two different joints, but they happened to be the same restaurant. The glass doors furthest to the north side of the building seem to be where the kitchen is located, as well as the takeout station. The cashier, who was also one of the co-owners, let us know to walk right in next door. We were greeted by the other owner, and he was very welcoming. The service staff were attentive; they had earpieces in, and it felt like we were in a production setting. The seating is a bit tight, especially for someone with an ass like mine. All the chairs and tables were different, kind of like a refurbishing vibe. There was a piano with melted wax on it, I mean, it was nothing like I've seen. I had never had an Argentine potato, egg, caramelized onion deep dish before; it's tasty and heavy on the onions. The burger was my favorite, definitely exploring more of those next time. Also, the empanadas are a must! They're expanding the space and eventually taking over the lot. read more

Oh baby, great Argentinian food has arrived in Los Angeles! Thanks to the Gramercy Block Club for the stellar endorsement. The empanadas were amazing! We got about 6 to try as an appetizer. I settled on the skirt steak, and it was great and very tasty. The service was top-notch, and the decor was super fun and great if you wanted to take a date here! Will come back again! read more

I'm so picky. We got this dolce de Leche ice cream I got it that they make in house. So rich and they add the perfect amount of salt. So good. People are really cool.

3 of visited for the first time. The server welcomed us warmly, apologized for what looked like chaos (they host tango every 3rd Thursday and so they clear out tables) and then gave us his recommendations when it came time to order. We ordered a variety of things to try and share. Everything was flavorful and delicious except for maybe the asado. It was wel grilled but just lacked a little seasoning compared to what I'm usually used to. Disclaimer though...I did not eat it with the chimichurri which probably would have paired nicely with the less seasoned meat. But the Spanish Chorizo was amazing!! Overall the place was unique, owner and wait staff were super friendly and hospitable, and it was just a generally different vibe than i expected when someone says we're having "argentinian" for dinner. I would definitely go back to try their other pizzas and empanadas. read more

I like the concept of the 'pink' salad--lots of pinkish things like radishes, radicchio, grapefruit, red onion, red (black) rice turned into a salad. It's hard for the colors to show through since the lighting is also pink! It's decent sized and goes along well with the (small) choripan. Looking forward to having some empanadas. read more

FUEGOS LA - Empanadas Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Unfortunately, I'm sad to say that my experience was far different than the others here. I placed a pick up order over the phone, the person I spoke to was fantastic and I was super excited to try a spot close to home. I actually didn't know about this place until my Amex platinum offered a special on restaurants who are part of the Resy network. I don't normally explore this side of town so I was enthusiastic about this place. I went on Yelp and the pictures looked amazing & the reviews were phenomenal. However, my experience ended up being opposite. First, I should mention that the area is still a bit sketchy. S LA is gentrifying but this area still has some time before any major changes. Their shared parking lot is super small so it's likely you'll have to grab street parking which should be easy in the neighborhood but I'm not sure I'd be too comfortable going late in the evening. For my pick up, I went to the side door which was open. I'm not sure what happened but my experience with service wasn't positive. They brought out the food and basically disappeared. I paid for the order on my own, checked to make sure the order was correct meanwhile everyone was running around, nobody checked on me, thanked me or said good bye. It was a really strange experience and quite off putting.. I've tried several different empanadas at various restaurants in the area and these were my least favorite. I've also traveled to Argentina and experienced the best empanadas in my life and these didn't compare. For the price point of $5, they were small and the flavors were just ok. I was also annoyed they provided one tiny container of chimichurri which was also just ok. I also got the ham/cheese medialuna which was like a mini croissant sandwich and it too was just ok. For those with a sweet tooth chocolate croissant with Dulce de leche, for $8, it missed the mark. I think my order was just thrown together and it looked messy which wasn't a good start. But based on other reviews, they seem to offer some nice events in the evening, service is good inside the restaurant and unsure if my experience was a one off bad day. But at the end of the day, it was my experience, I wasn't happy and unsure if I'll go back. read more

I tried the pink salad, beef empanada, onion and cheese empanada, and pizza. The beef empanada was my favorite! The shell was thin, and the ground meat had great flavor. The pink salad was unique and had bitter notes that cut the richness of my dinner. Onion and cheese empanada was tasty, but better suited for cheese lovers. It was a little too much like eating a ball of melted cheese for me (which might sound amazing to others). I also like the Argentinian style pizza. The crust was fluffy and tasted like foccacia bread. I'll be back to try their other offerings. read more

I really like the atmosphere of this place. It's a lot different from your normal restaurants in Los Angeles. I feel like I've been transported to some of the places I've been to when traveling abroad. It has a very homely taste, as if I were to travel to Argentina. I feel like this would be a restaurant found there. I received the best service from the staff. They were very friendly and attentive. I had their sandwich and it was very delicious. The steak was tender and full of flavor, and the roasted bell peppers were sweet and flavorful. I enjoyed the ciabatta bread that the sandwich was made on. The sauces on the sandwich made it very flavorful. Their beef empanada was very tasty as well, full of flavor and spices. This is a mom-and-pop-run establishment. The business owners were there attending to guests and the food. If you want to support local businesses, come here and eat. I need to come back here and try their skirt steak. read more

We sat at the bar and was welcomed by one of the owners, whose friendly service and recommendations made the evening even better. The dishes were full of authentic flavor, and the Malbec we shared was excellent and fairly priced. It's the kind of spot where you can relax, enjoy good food, and feel genuinely taken care of. Bonus -- Thursday nights are Tango lesson and dance. Fuego is more than just a meal; it's an intimate experience with great stories shared about the history of Argentina food.

I've never been to Argentina, but now I really want to go -- everything about this place is pure magic. The food is incredible: order as many empanadas as you can possibly fit in your mouth (trust me). The steak was cooked to perfection and paired beautifully with my favorite side combo -- fries and arugula salad. The red wine selection is chef's kiss and complements every bite. I think I might've tried them all... thankfully, I took an Uber. The service was perfect - I kept them busy filling my wine glass. The ambiance is thoughtfully curated with fun design touches that create a warm, European-style coziness. There was a big birthday party outside having a blast while my friend and I sat at the bar -- such great energy all around. They also serve breakfast and coffee, so I'll definitely be back to check that out. Perfect spot for an intimate dinner, a fun night with friends, or a festive celebration. Absolutely loved it! read more

Food: Wow! BEST empanadas from here! STUFFED with juicy, tender and well seasoned meat and wrapped in PINK dough! Hahah! So cool and very aesthetic! They even recently added pizza to their menu which was ooey-gooey cheesy delicious. But man, I dream about those empanadas and 1000% coming back for those! Ambiance: home-y/comforting, rustic spot. Rustic meaning it looks lived in but every detail is thought out and intentional. Experience a different culture here! They have a bar and coffee station with plenty of tables for dining with family and friends and even a cozy fireplace area to hangout in. I could definitely see myself coming back to hangout here. Service: 10/10 the people who own this spot actually CARE about you and the food they serve. read more
