This restaurant was fantastic! The food was absolutely amazing everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The ice cream was the cherry on top. The restaurant was very clean, and the customer service was outstanding. The owner, Angel, personally went out his way to greet and make sure my family and I enjoyed our food. We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place!

Got a half dozen chicken verde tamales for about $12 after tax. Had just run out so they came out fresh. Tasted great! Offered me a watermelon paleta on the house for the small wait and discovered a couple extra tamales they threw in too once I got my order. The frescas were refreshing. My friend said her ice cream was delicious! Will be back.

Fuerte was by far the best catering experience we have done in ages! The food was incredible and the level of care with packaging and all the included extras to make a full meal and supplies was above and beyond any expectations. We will definitely be ordering again and would highly recommend them for any other businesses as well as personal food orders.

It’s about time Glenwood got a local spot that we can support! The plaza here seems to struggle keeping good food spots, but since opening day Fuerte has had a long line and plenty of great food options for the family. The tacos, nacho supreme, and taco bowl were all solid picks for us and we’ll definitely be back regularly. The space inside is a bit tight but it’s perfect for pick up and go.
