Fuego Tortilla Grill has been the talk of the town when I’m around my friends, but for some reason I’ve never tried it for myself. I’m a sophomore now at Texas State and my friends were shocked to hear I’ve never had a Fuego taco before, so like all good friends do, they rushed me straight there. I can truly say, now I understand what all the hype was about.
Fuego is located at 913 N Interstate 35 right off the highway. Although it is in no way walking distance from the campus, it would only take about 7 minutes to hop in your car and make it there. In addition, the price point at Fuego is UNBEATABLE! You can get one taco for as low as $1.39 or the most expensive taco for $5.79. Their menu also contains items such as queso, nachos, guacamole, salads, and bowls. They have a wide variety of choices for a very affordable price. Although I’ve only been once, the quality of the food was amazing. It came out quick, hot, and fresh. I loved it!
Now for a few pros and cons for Fuego Tortilla Grill. The major con would be that it is not within walking distance from the campus, so for the students without cars it may be harder to get to. However, a pro to balance that out would be they deliver through Doordash. Some pros of Fuego are that they have a drive thru, which is super nice if you are by yourself or just don’t feel like getting out of the car. Another pro (which is the best for college students) is that it is open 24 hours a day! However, it is closed on Monday’s. Another major pro is that they have a HUGE menu filled with every type of taco you can imagine. I’ll link that here for you to check out.

My Reccomendation: Good Golly Miss Holly. This taco was AMAZING! If you are into weird food combos this taco is for you. It’s filled with smoked brisket, mac and cheese, cheddar jack cheese, and topped with Cheetos. Yep. Cheetos. It gives it a crunch and makes it taste just that much better. I even add sour cream on the top of mine, but you can add whatever or leave it as is!
I hope you all enjoyed this post and go check out Fuego Tortilla Grill, because it is a must-try! Make sure to try the Good Golly Miss Holly and let me know how it is. Until next time, Kendall
