“ My wife and I decided to take a stroll around the square, eager to try something out of the ordinary. Wow, were we blown away! This place is absolutely fantastic! It’s a hidden gem, and it's so disheartening to hear they’re closing their doors in July. Don’t miss out on this amazing experience! ”
“ What an amazing dinner we had! Service is great. It’s a small place but there was no wait. Went around 5ish on a Wednesday. They have a full bar and nice beer selection. The yuca fries are great! The seabass was out of this world. So good. Hubby had the Beef Arepas and they were good too but don’t think we will get those again. Parking is pretty tight since it’s in the downtown area but not bad. Highly recommend. ”
“ My wife and I had dinner here today and both the service and food was exceptional. The pisco and lemonade were delicious. We had the lamb with cheese, the seafood paella and the relleno. Highly recommend. We'll be back! ”
“ Great place! I loved the mood of sunday brunch, you can take from the buffet with fruit, eggs, bread... plus 2 options a la carte. The portions have perfect size, you don't feel hungry once you finish, yet not too big as often in Texas, the menu is pretty concrete, not too much options, but with enough for different preferences, pet friendly, you can go with your pets if you seat outside. All the staff was so friendly, warm, educated, high standards of service! in special our server ANA. ”
“ Wow! This food is soooo good. We grazed on four different appetizers and didn't even make it to entrees on this visit. The people are so friendly and the food came out hot, fast, and perfect. Great job! We are definitely coming back to knock out some of those entrees! ”
“ My daughter and I went for lunch to spend some time together. The interior is a very nice setting, and it’s in a perfect location. The menu looked so good online, so I wanted to try the yucca fries. Server wasn’t very friendly, and the food wasn’t anything to go back for except the yucca fries, and the chicken and goat cheese empanadas, which were pretty good. ”
“ I have been meaning to go to this restaurant since we moved to Georgetown 5 years ago. I can’t believe I waited this long. The place is brightly painted red with red chairs which is very welcoming. The owners, Jorge (also the cook) and Aracely (his wife) were fantastic. They were friendly and nice. Their son also helped - so it’s a family affair.... The food was fabulous- we had appetizers: empanadas, salad and the 3 ceviches served with fried plantains and chips which were amazing! The flavors of the ceviches were delicious and all 3 were univque. I would go back and order this every time. This restaurant is definitely a gem in the GT square - highly recommended. ”
“ Update: June 2025 They are moving as the lease was lost. We hadn't been back in a while. Everything looked the same. However it appears the portions are smaller. There was a lot more decorations on the food covering the main proteins. The scallops were good. The beef ribs were very small. The chicken was small, dry and overcooked. Update: August 2023 We haven't been in a while. We took the lady there for her birthday. The service was great. The food tasted wonderful. The food presentation is beautiful. The atmosphere is nice. Update May 2021. 2nd visit. Delicious again. We started with a ceviche mix with plantain chips - very tasty, really like the whole corn kernel crunch. Next was the shrimp croquets, soft inside with a bit of fry on the outside, with sauce on a slaw (ate all of that too). Very nice. Then we had the beef empanadas, which my lady and son liked, but I have never been a fan of anywhere. Then there were some pork sliders with avocado and slaw - cooked perfectly. Finally some pork chop Milanese. We thought we would see pork chops, but instead it looked like a schnitzel. Very good and topped with some amazing vegetables. We realized that Latin food is not Mexican or TexMex again. I had a craving for some hot sauce or salsa, but this is a different kind of food. We didn't ask for any. We will go back. Late 2020: We visited Fuego Latino Gastropub in Georgetown for the first time last weekend. They opened some time during 2020 covid. We didn't know they came to time, from Round Rock as I recall. They are right on the square on Austin Ave. We were seated up front near the window so we could people watch. There was enough space between the tables and the servers wore masks. The restaurant is a family run business with the lady running the front and the gent running the kitchen. We met the owner Araceli. She was friendly and informative of their venture to Georgetown. A few of her sons were also cleaning tables. The food style is some what unique. It is not Tex-Mex or Spanish. It is more a fusion of Brazilian Mexican and Spanish I suppose - Latin. The three of us shared food. We started with a salad of kale and slivered apples. It was great and tasty. The next starter was chicken croquets. They were on a slaw with some dollops of red and green sauce. My lady got a taste of heat but my son and I didn't, again tasty. We had three entrees - pork ribs crusty skin but tender on a slaw, a long plate of scallops with some fancy sauce, and an amazing arroz con pollo that I have never seen before. There were three pieces of chicken topped with a vegetable, bean, rice and sauce mixture. Very good. Each plate from the appetizer to the final chocolate cake desert was presented beautifully. We were impressed. We are glad they are in Georgetown and hope they keep up the quality and do very well. We will go back again. ”
