This is a great place!!! My first time here and I loved the taste and texture of the chicken! The Plantano Frito (side) is the BOMB!!!! I for sure recommend this place to my friends, family, and everyone! read more

Red Fuego - Peruvian Near Me - Orem, Utah

I've been trying to call for pickup for two days and they never answer so I decided to drive 17 minutes to go order at the store. I order a full chicken , they told me 30 min wait and I was like "okay" , they told me it's going to be $29 and I try paying with two $20 and the lady was like "do you have a card , because I don't have that much change". I thank her and left but In my head I was like " what kind of restaurant doesn't have $11 in change ?" What a waste of time. read more

Two words: delicious chicken. I mean DELICIOUS chicken. I mean I came in this restaurant not expecting to be wowed, and that is exactly what happened. The service was great. I asked a few questions about the menu and they explained it all to me. I ended up ordering the 1/4 chicken with two sides, I chose the fruit mix and the yuca fries, both of which were excellent. The fruit was fresh and generously portioned. The yuca fries were cooked to perfection. And, well, I already told you that the chicken was delicious, but let me tell you. I think the Yelp profile mentions that it's seasoned with twenty some spices and slow-roasted in deliciousness. Bottom-line is, I can't wait to try everything else here. I'll update this review accordingly. read more

Red Fuego is AMAZING. I feel like it's kind of a random place that not a lot of people know about but I recommend this place to everyone. The chicken is cooked to perfection and is always impeccably seasoned. I personally love getting sliced avocado with it and the yucca fries. Portions are extremely generous and you will leave here stuffed and happy you went. Definitely go here!! read more

I love Peruvian food. My dinner was the Lomo Saltado. It had good flavor but the beef was very tough. My wife had the fried rice. She liked it. My kids had the chicken. It was not very good. My daughter in law had the Quinoa as a side. It was inedible and floating in water. Overall no one wants to eat here again. They get what they want. read more

My wife and I went here on a lark. The outside of this place is unassuming, but once inside, there is a modern decor and a very clean establishment. The staff was very nice, and the food was nothing short of magnificent. There isn't much choice on the menu though... It's chicken, chicken or chicken. If you're feeling like a meal for the family... This is the place to go! read more

See all

Love this place and also has tons of Leto friendly options. Not doing keto but always good to know. Friendly and great food. A little pricey but love is put into what they make. read more

The chicken was really good, that's the best thing I can say about the place. We arrived on a Monday around 11:45AM, trying to beat the lunch rush. The hours here on Yelp say they are open, however when I arrived the doors were closed. Then comes the wait, it was almost 22 minutes, and we were the first folks in line. Then the sauces are held back, like you have to ask for them, it's not self service like it should be. Drinks are not self service as well. All in all, it's just a hard place to go back to knowing all this. read more

Dining area smells like sewage. It was dead slow, only a few other customers in there, and it took at least 30 minutes for our food to be ready. The line cook was taking his sweet time, and he messed up the order the first time he rang the bell. We saw him lick his fingers through the window to the line in the midst of preparing our food. Once we finally got our order, I had to remind the cashier that i ordered a drink. read more

YES. if you are considering going here-- DO IT. Awesome chicken, great Yuca, and really affordable price point. The Maracuya (Passionfuit juice) is incredible. I will most definitely be back! read more

One of the best rotisserie chickens I've ever eaten. Superb. My wife loved her Lomo Saltado. Whatever your wait... It's worth it.

The best Peruvian chicken around. Compares with what we have had in Washington DC at one of the best in the states. Can't wait until they open in Lehi read more

Such a disappointment. I've been coming here for over a year and a half and until about four months ago all was well. It used to be worth the 20-35 min wait. But I think that maybe since they've gotten so busy, they decided to cut corners. Along with their potion size. The last four times I've come, the lomo soltado that I have always gotten, is almost completely devoid of flavor. They are no longer marinading the meat long enough, or not at all today and the portion size is at least a third smaller than it used to be. It's the first time I looked for salt. But they don't even have that. I am so sad. They used to be amazing. I can no longer justify the price. Sorry guys. Let me know when you go back to being proud of the food you used to serve. read more

I've been here twice and had the same experience both times. The rotisserie chicken was fantastic, but the other dishes, service, and design/decor were just so so. And please, Utah strip mall restaurant owners, please please provide some kind of cold air barrier for your entrance, this is a winter state after all. I could see people reacting uncomfortably (along with me) every time the door opened. read more

This was my first taste of Peruvian food, and it happened by accident! I was going to place next door and happened to park in front of Red Fuego and decided to try it. I had their rotisserie chicken and went back the next day for the ají de gallina. It was delicious. I liked it so much I'm trying to find a good recipe to try to replicate at home (I live in TX so unfortunately i can't have it all the time ) read more

Red Fuego - Peruvian Near Me - Orem, Utah

Terrible service. Terrible food. I invited my friends for some good quality food and got undercooked chicken. When we went to tell them that it was undercooked, they offered to reheat it. They "reheated it" and it came out red again. We went up again and they said that we're not Peruvian and don't understand that the chicken is supposed to be red. Little do they know that half of us are Peruvian. The girl with glasses talked down on us and acted like she knew what was good but she's not even Peruvian. From the moment we walked in she was super rude. The whole experience was terrible. read more

Delicious...fresh...not heavy. Love how the tomatoes are seasoned and the fries soaked in marinade (?) were seriously good. Meat was very well seasoned. On this particular night, I'd say the chicken won over the steak...barely. Returning for sure! read more

Chicken is delicious! I really love the flavors they use to season the chicken but they always have a very long wait for the food even if it doesn't seem that busy and they frequently seem to run out of thighs and legs and even chicken all together which is their best menu item. The lomo saltado was okay just not as flavorful as the chicken. I'm starting to get a little disappointed, they may need to change fix some operational things to streamline their service time and make sure they don't run out of chicken at 7pm on a weeknight. read more

I am BEYOND loyal to this restaurant!! Great food, friendly service and great vibes I came on a Monday and on a weekend and believe they treat ALL costumers incredibly whether it's right before closing or during lunch hour. I will continue taking friends here great date SO content! read more

Red Fuego - Great food! - Peruvian Near Me - Orem, Utah

While the place is very clean and the food was good, it was nothing special. The chicken was on par with Costco rotisserie chicken but much more expensive. read more

They upgraded the restaurant but the food is terrible now, and more expensive. Small chicken and a few fries. Never going back there again.

Good chicken, good service. I love the simplicity of their menu and layout of the place. Order from the counter and takes less than 5 min to prepare. I got 1/2 chicken w/ avocado and black bean sides. I liked that they gave me 1/2 of a whole avocado and it was thinly sliced..the beans were just plain but okay if you mix in the green sauce they give with the chicken. read more

Sincerely one of the best places to eat. The menu is basic, only a couple items, but everything I've had here is amazing. Will be, and have been back multiple times! Half chicken, black beans, and plantains read more

Pathetically slow. Food is usually good but I have never gotten food faster than 20 min and often more than 45 minutes.

Food: Stellar. Chicken was very moist and delicious. The main issue was how it was served. In a metal mesh tray with a piece of food paper underneath it. The juices of the chicken soak throw and eventually shred the paper. Causing some of your food to fall out the bottom or you eat a few scraps of paper. The rice was fine but very bland. They don't provide any sauces unless you ask for them, and when they do its a 1/3 full small plastic cup of it. Its too bad the sides don't measure up to the chicken. Service: They were supposed to open at 11, but appeared closed until someone came and opened the door at 11:45. They said on mondays they get their chicken delivered later and don't have food ready til later. Oh really? Why not have different hours on Monday rather than letting people think its open? Seems like a simple solution. They have a huge counter up front that they literally use for nothing. They could keep their soda machine up there and some sauces you can self-serve. Half the time no one was running the desk, and despite being the first people to order when it opened, it took 25 min to get our food. The food was so good but the little things destroyed this place for me. The experience is bad enough I don't want to go back, but you should probably go at least once to try their chicken. read more

Absolutely delicious food! DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE IN A HURRY!!! We ordered over the phone for pick up. We were told when to pick it up. We arrived to pick it up and literally waited for 45 minutes once we got there! 45 minutes AFTER we were told it would be ready. I'll never go back because of that. Food was good, but not sure it's worth the wait. No apologies either. read more

This was good, but kind of pricey for us. Also I am picky about my sweet potato fries and they weren't great. The meat tasted good and had a lot of flavor. read more

I used to love this place! I recently went & was really disappointed by the lack of flavor in mostly all of the dishes. The green sauce is no longer spicy and is kind of like a cream sauce that also lacked flavor. I felt like this restaurant used to be more authentic & it was what I loved the most about this place. I hope this doesn't become just another Utah chain & lose their delicious flavors & culture. read more

Amazing food, great prices, speedy service. Chicken is delicious, and their drinks are definitely worth a taste. An awesome addition to the Orem culinary scene. read more

My husband is Peruvian. Besides my mother-in-law's lomo saltado, this place has the best Peruvian food. Seriously, treat yourself. Ambiance of Chipotle so no pressure and perfect place for a date. Just graduated graduate school and my husband and I decided to visit this place before we move. Even ate here for graduation! read more

The food was alright the wait was not. We did come during lunch so I expect a wait but not the wait we got. It wasn't that busy for how long the food and service took. Also, they were out of several items on the menu at noon on a weekday which I found disappointing. I will definitely​ go back and give it another try but not during lunch. I do appreciate their variety​ of sides and each of them that I was able to try was really good. I recommend​ the sweet potato fries for sure! The marinade they use on the chicken is pretty good as well. Worth a try for sure. read more

Great chicken. The family size is a great value easily feeds 4 or 5. This is what chicken should taste like. These should be everywhere!

The Lomo Saltado is awesome! Great tasting meat and grilled veggies, sauces are excellent, and the fries are pretty good. The only issue is that it takes a LONG time to get your food. read more

The chicken was perfectly cooked, the sides (plantain and yuca) were hot and delicious! Will come back often. read more

Red Fuego - 1/2 chicken, plantains and yuca! It was delicious - Peruvian Near Me - Orem, Utah

This is my favorite restaurant. Chicken: The chicken is amazing. It is the best chicken I have tasted. Ask for extra green sauce to go with it. Lomo Saltado: best thing on the menu. The veggies, rice, and meat are all perfect. It is healthy enough that you feel good after eating it. Ice cream: I definitely recommend tasting the ice cream. It is expensive but worth the experience. read more

Showed up at 11 for lunch and they didn't even have any chicken ready, told us 15min and it would be ready. We ended up waiting 30 plus minutes for our lunch. I think they need to learn how to get ready before they open, or change there hour of operation. Food was just ok not worth a 30 min wait. read more

If you would have told me I would have the best Peruvian meal in Orem Utah I would have never believed you! Delicious! Thank you! I am sort of jealous my daughter will be living here because she will be eating here often! read more

Here's the deal. Food is fine - nothing special. It's good, but moderately overpriced. The big knock here is the service. It's incredibly slow. We ordered two standard menu items and it was 40+ minutes to fulfill it. You don't even get waits like this at sit down restaurants. When I asked the staff what the deal was they said, "we don't know...maybe lots of orders" no offer to remedy the situation, no apology. Won't be back. Bottom line: overpriced food. Long waits. read more

I typically don't like Peruvian but this place was great. Don't be deceived by the ugly exterior, the interior is very well designed. The food was really good. Small simple menu. I got Lomo Saltado which is steak. The onions and tomatoes were so good! I put it on top of sweet potato fries instead of normal fries and I would say I made the right choice there. I tried the chicken too and it was really good flavor. My lomo saltado was enough for 2 meals. The only negative is that they are a little on the slow side at making the food so be prepared for that. read more

My first time trying Peruvian food and loved it! We had the Lomo Saltado and it was phenomenal. Seriously such delicious flavor and SO much food. Such a cute restaurant, and such KIND staff. Will definitely come back! read more
