I'm talking full-on witness protection-level mild. The guacamole? A+ -- clearly made fresh, clearly made with love, and clearly the star of the show. I would 100% come back just to sit in their cute outdoor patio, sip a margarita (still TBD on strength, but hope springs eternal), and eat guac like it's my last day on Earth. The entrees we had were tasty but felt like they were personally approved by Karen from accounting. No heat, no sweat, no regrets. Definitely catering to the "ketchup-is-too-spicy" demographic. But hey, not every meal has to be a death-defying chili challenge. Great service, lovely vibe, and I'm already planning my return mission: guac + margarita = redemption. (Please, bring one next time.)

They have had a mexican brunch buffet for the last 4 months, a bit spendy at $40 but so worth it! Longer travel time for us, but enjoyed the ride. Everything was so fresh and delicious, and the service was amazing! You can have items off of their brunch menu which are included, some are made tableside. If you are into it, they offer all you can drink mimosas for $16 extra. Your usual beverages come with the brunch. Wonderful hand made flour and corn tortillas! Hope you can try it out! Best place we have been in a long time! Enjoy!

All & All ; it was a fun place, service was nice but food is just ok, sangria was good, but that "mirror in bathroom" as the band, the English Beat song said...Double Yikes

Check your takeout order before you leave. That said the food is exactly what you'd want from Mexican food. I love the Enchiladas Mexico and our entire family loves the side of rice and beans. There isn't a menu item that "wows" you. But it's all very solid for a quick easy Mexican dinner night. This is our go-to spot for close-by Mexican food but it probably wouldn't be worth a long trek. Solid.

There were many large seating area available. One main cedar table was a big attraction. There is a fireplace with a table by it We got a table. I ordered a Borgona, fruit puree juices mix with Sprite. Never had one, but sounded really good. It came and it was delicious and fruity for a mocktail. We ordered a shrimp ceviche and octopus skewers to start out with. The Shrimp Ceviche was very delicious and it was something that I was very happy to share it with my friends. It was a big portion of shrimp cocktail with salsa on the bottom and these large sized blue chips. It was so good that we ate it quickly. Octopus skewers was a tad charred. Yet very delicious especially if you eat it with the pineapple together. Brings out the flavor of the pineapples quite well. We ordered the Pork Belly Tacos and Mole Shrimp Tacos which came in 3. I absolutely loved street tacos filled with good fresh ingredients. And both of these hot the spot. The pork belly was an absolute great flavor of the pork belly. The Shrimp was delicious. Cook perfectly and easy to devour quickly. DeFuego Nachos had Jalapenos. But wasn't listed. The nachos were delicious and it was quickly devoured. Wings came in 4 wings with garlic parmesan with carrots and celery and ranch on the platter. Heavily garlic on the wings yet very delicious. Half wedge salad was a surprise how much there is in the salad. A lot of fresh veggies there with cherry tomatoes and sliced radishes in it. I had a absolutely fun experience celebrating my birthday here. DeFuego had Happy Hour from 3pm to 6pm, seven days out of the week. Seems the Happy Hour here is very popular. You have 21 appetizers to choose from on the Happy Hour Menu. There are Mocktails, and any drinks you want available. Definitely will come back again.

Shoot. Last night I took my boyfriend here to celebrate a special event & we left so disappointed!…read moreWe got there at 7:15 & we were stuck there for over 2 hours! I ordered 2 things and both came out wrong. Our waitress spoke very loudly and we could hear her having long personal conversations with people a couple tables away from us for 10+ minutes at a time, several times. While we waited for her, we ran out of water a few times and I had to ask for more. It was over an hour before our order was even taken. We did flag her down to order an appetizer, brussel sprouts with cheese on the side due to a dairy allergy, but... the sprouts came out with cheese on them. They corrected this fairly promptly, but then we sat for another 45 minutes before our order was actually taken. I ordered a steak as "somewhere between medium & medium well" and she correctly repeated my order back to me "medium/medium well." When the steak came out, it was WELL well done. Like, burnt. I wanted to send it back, but I didn't want to deal with the embarrassment or have to wait even longer for food. We were about an hour & 45 minutes into dinner by the time we got our food. I was so disappointed! I also wanted to get dessert to celebrate the occasion but the service was SO slow that we had to cancel our after-dinner plans. We ordered it anyway & requested the check promptly, giving up on our plans for the rest of the evening. We were only a party of 2, we arrived early for our reservation, & we watched several larger parties come and go while we waited for our order to even be taken. It was a Wednesday night and not overly busy, there were several empty tables, so I'm not sure what the hold up was. We were also seated at an odd table next to the kitchen with a small divider between us and the staff. It was noisy and I even heard 2 staff members exchange a joke about how someone else had left & said they'd never come back. They laughed about it. I wish I had the guts those people had to get up & leave! I've never once left less than a 20% tip and felt immense guilt not tipping well, but after experiencing the poor service then also hearing the staff blatantly acknowledge it & not care.... I was appalled. The Hilton bought the hotel attached to De Fuego and I'm shocked. This was a Monarch hotel before and I'd assume that the Hilton's standards would be higher but the service and quality here have tanked hopelessly low since the acquisition. I had a similar experience at The Underground before it closed. I've learned my lesson & won't come here for a special occasion again.
