scooter guy and the lunch crew – i have been going to el fuego since they opened almost three years ago. as with most new businesses there are things that need working out and el fuego was no different. i can remember when they first opened lunch lines spilled out into the street. i am sure that such high volume resturaunts have a relatively high turnover. el fuego has managed to keep virtually the same staff for the past few years. perhaps that's to do with the scooter guy who me and my co-workers often see around town. we ... read more

great food, great service – Talk about a massive burrito! It's probably one of the first burritos I've had in the city that didn't fall apart. The prices were great, especially compared to the amount you get. The music was pretty cool too.

if you like big burritos.. – el fuego is like a fantasy--- delicious 10 inch burritos, authentic mexican beer and soda, wonderfully diverse array of music, and most of all an intelligent highly attentive staff... oh yeah and they have a massive flat screen which plays soccer from around the world. lunch is hectic so i advise visiting early on your lunch break or after work when there is adequate seating. during lunch the staff operates in a amazingly efficient fashion which is in itself worth a visit. the atmosphere is pleas... read more

watched world cup here on my extended lunch breaks. even though mexico lost i kept coming back for the guacamole! it's also nice to sneak a negra modelo with your burrito. i would recommend the brisket or the chorizo with frijoles negros. the aroz and the tomatillo salsa remind me of home. i hope you like it like i do. and maybe you'll come to watch the copa libatadores and champions league with me and the staff. they make great food and love the futbol like me. okay. bye.

best guac – if you like guacamole...this is the place. if you like good quesadillas....watch out! if you like the kind of place that serves beer, plays good beats, and is chill...i would invite some friends.

Awesome Customer Service!!! – Excellent food, great service, and definitely not a long wait. Great for people with less than a 45 minute lunch! The burritos are awesome and huge. Everything is fresh. I would definitely suggest that you eat here.

Big Burritos – Coming from California, I've had my share of good Mexican food. It is very difficult to find a decent burrito anywhere out here. El Fuego is as close as I've come in Philadelphia. Their burritos are huge and quite tasty. Far better than Santa Fe Burrito.

Best service and great food! – This place rules! The service and food were both great! I was there while they were closing one night and they seriously clean that place. I must say they put out some of the best burritos, they're huge, so you really get your moneys worth. Not to mention the hot guys that work there, check it out!
