Fogones Mexican Delights review
Local Mexican restaurant provides great service and exceptional food
At Fogones Mexican Delights, a small restaurant located next to Shawnee City Hall, a delicious meal accompanied by phenomenal service will do nothing but leave you satisfied.
As the restaurant name suggests, the food is authentic Mexican cuisine that is both delicious and completely homemade.
The entrees are hugely portioned and are accompanied by a side of your choice. I had the chicken chimichanga, which is basically a deep-fried burrito with pinto beans and the black bean salad, comprised of black beans, corn and cilantro. The chimichanga was a little bit greasy, so if you’re on a diet, Fogones may not be for you. However, the avocado crema that was served as a dipping sauce had a perfectly smooth texture and gave the deep-fried entrée a healthy component. The entire dish cost $10 and will be sure to satisfy the hungriest of appetites. If you’re aiming for a less expensive meal, all tacos are $1 during happy hour, and numerous appetizers are reduced in price as well.
Between the comfortable atmosphere and delicious food, Fogones Mexican Delights is a can’t-miss lunch destination.
