So thankful for this place!

yalla sriharini

They have good appetizers but entre is a bit not that great. Great for Kosher lovers.

Jeferson Souza

Steaks were thin but well prepared. The chimichurri didn't seem very authentic but was good in its own way.

Diane Bland

Fuego Mundo is my weekly Sunday date with my family for 9 years! We love the variety, tasty food and awesome staff. The manager -shayla is awesome and super friendly. The owner -Udi Is on top of the dining experience. All in all it’s a 5 for us.

Lois Kriegh

$$$ But so worth it. The food is amazing and caters to many. Kosher Parve, Vegan, allergies, gluten free. They are wonderful to families with small children. Great about getting the childrens food out fast. The employees are so nice. Clean resturant. We have been before and tried many different meals. Everything has always tasted so good. Highly recommend. Great for special occasions and groups.

Childofthearts

Great food and great service. I ordered a schnitzel salad and it was delicious and filling. Definitely recommend.

Jake Lasprilla

Great service! Wonderful people! Food taste amazing.

Jennie Wind

Food good. service fine. OWNERS HORRIBLE! Don't go there if you have kids. We just got asked to "quiet" down a baby because the owners decided to have a meeting in the middle of the restaurant, in the afternoon on a weekday. We weren't even sitting by any other customers. They have a kids menu and didn't even have any crayins If YOU HAVE CHILDREN DON'T GO TO THIS restaurant and spend your money!

Audrey Newcombe

Great food! Vegan and gluten free friendly!

Zissy Kahana

Ian Kilov

Great South American cuisine with great service.

Cliff Hite

Fantastic food! Always impressed with the quality of the food and the excellent customer service. One of my go to places!

Bob Kusnetz

(2018) Very good food and outstanding service. (2019 update): Was back in Atlanta this year, and took another co-worker there. If anything, the food and service was even better than last year. All three co-workers I took there (not Jewish) really liked it. Not only are their entrees wonderful, their sides are outstanding, as well. One of the best kosher restaurants I've been to.

Keith S

Who would think you can find a vegan dish at a kosher steakhouse? Great food, it came out quickly and was well-made.

Maverick Bowen

i will be back with my coworkers.

Benny Wright

Our Family loves to celebrate here. Great kosher meals with wide range of options to satisfy any hungry family.

Zalman Lerman

Very good customer service by Jonathan.He has a good personality and a very good attention to detail

Moshe Stein

Food is good need to lower prices or give double the meat or chicken they give I paid 22.00 for 1 piece of chicken with tiny side dishes umm out of all was good experience just need to fix prices or give double the meat they give

Mariana Quiñones

Last night (1/13/19) I had the best meal I've had here. Walking in we noticed their grill must have been working on overtime because the restaurant was almost full and I had never found it to be smoky like it was last night. Out of the drinks menu I am glad to have given the sangria another chance because there was one time when the sangria I was served smelled strongly like a wet rag (they were courteous enough to not charge me for it then). However, yesterday's sangria was the best I'd had in a long time and the pitcher was perfect for two of us. It might serve three people if you don't drink too much. The food was also excellent. I am a soup lover and their Latin Vegetable soup never disappoints me. Their Argentinian churrasco with chimichurri sauce were also great. Additionally, it is a great spot to have a dinner with your Jewish friends as it is one of a few good spots around Atlanta where the food is Kosher.

Ari Rasekh

Food is really great (their hot dog is awesome). Service good but sometimes quirky. Layout/decor/ambiance don't live up to the food unfortunately. Wish they delivered or were on uber eats.

khameleon Woman

Excellent food

Claudia Timoll

Service, food, restroom everything great

Kurt Walls

the service was very welcoming and sociable.

Ari Tretin

Every time I am in Atlanta I come here for a meal. The staff is super friendly and the menu has a good amount of offerings for all dietary needs. Recently I have been getting their daily specials which is totally worth it and I wish some of these items made their way into the menu. If not, I hope they continue to have them since I’ve been really happy with the flavor, price, and amount of food each time. The restaurant is usually very busy at dinner time but even with a little wait it is totally worth it. One of the downsides to my experiences which I will say I have seen improvement on, is the way new team members are trained and brought on. It feels more of a trial and error and everyone gets tossed into the fire as opposed to a slow learning and assisting method, which is totally fine if understaffed and no ability to take time to slowly teach. It hasn’t been bad experiences, just learning ones. They also offer kosher food and vegetarian options in Terminal A at the airport in 2 of the Boars Head Fridge stands. I look forward to getting a meal here every time I am in Atlanta. I look forward to what Fuego does next.

Leen DeCanck

This place is heaven for people who are gluten free and dairy free. No worries about cross contamination and you can order almost everything of the menu except a few desserts. I am sure we kept our server entertained with all our allergy related food questions and she could reply positive to all of them, that is so unusual. On top of that, the food is delicious. Worth a special trip

Quiannia Owens

Staff not so friendly & inviting!!

Moshe Starkman

This is my sister's favorite restaurant in all of America! What more can I tell you as to how good it is. I love this place too! Great service, and great food.

Lily Williams

Very friendly place, fast, food is healthy and tasty.

Jonathan Graber

Awesome food and great service. Chicken wings are EXCELLENT and the burgers were cooked to perfection.

Mitch Hamburger

Delicious

Asher Katz

One of the best kosher restaurants in the world. Amazing food, incredible variety and flavors. Probably the most versatile kosher menu I have ever seen. Whether you are stoned in pajamas or wearing a three peice suit and hat to an important meeting, there is something for you. Fancy menu but informal place.

Lindsey Sewall

I've been to this place more than a handful of times and haven't had a meal I didn't love. The flavors are all cohesive and I get to mix and match a from huge list of sides. Friendly front of house who seem eager to please

YITH Youth

Food is OK. No more than that. Portions are OK not huge. Service is Superb! (our waiter was phenomenal). In terms of prices these are extremely high even at Kosher standard, and be ready for 20% gratuity which is automatically added to your bill. Note that meat is kosher and grass fed so high price is somewhat understandable. Bottom line, there is no better steakhouse in Atlanta for Kosher dining.

SUSAN HAACKE

Food well prepared and well presented. Service excellent. No complaints at all.

Christopher Willey

Food is SO good here, and you get the sense that the staff genuinely cares about you as a person.

Matthew L. Silverman

Amazing food! Perfect for a date night

Veronika Bari

Great meat restaurant, with plenty of gluten free options.

Cory Saunders

Great food! Delicious vegetarian options and great service.

Yitzchok (Isaac) Friedman

One of the best places I've been to!

Lohendy Garcia

Great service! Great food!

Charlotte Hughes

Service is always timely even when they have a full house. The service was very kind and attentive.

Yissakhar Beck

Good food, if a bit expensive. Very nice selection. I don't eat meat very often, but the vegetarian selection is quite large, as is the desert selection. I highly recommend the yucca bread.

Alex P

Where can I start? Delicious food? Good customer service? I always come here to get delicious kosher food. The dark meat chicken taste phenomenally delicious! One time, we ordered catoring for a company event and most of my coworkers enjoyed the food! Sheila and all the members give good customer service. I don't know why many people complain against them. Perhaps native Atlantians need to stop being full of themselves??

S. Jan Spector

Atlanta's best Kosher restaurant. Improved service and menu.

Gary England

I was disappointed today and made to be an outlaw for bringing my yeti cup into the restaurant. When I requested to have my cold coffee in their cup warmed, the request was followed by a visit from the manager asking what was in my yeti. I replied nothing and she left without explanation for the question but I was never brought coffee. So I sat through the meal watching my wife and neighbors receive refills but, being an outlaw for an empty yeti cup, was ignored time and again. I regret the visit and wish I had not paid to be "outlawed". The food was fine but the characterization made for a poor experience. At the end of the meal, I asked for an explanation and was told that their coffee does not get cold because it is in a thermos and that they did not know I needed a warm-up. And so, this was a lack of attention to the client coupled with an implied accusation regarding the yeti. Normally, I never write negative reviews but today's poor experience followed a simple drink order request being ignored yesterday at another restaurant that also did not have a busy waitress. A busy waitress is understandable but a lack of attention is off-putting.

steve brecher

Very good food and service.

Sam

Amazing South American Food that happens to be Kosher. Recommend the Latin Vegetable Soup and the Cranberry Teriyaki Chicken with Latin sides (Black Beans, Rice and Roasted Plantains). The service was fast and efficient. My server, Lindsey, was helpful and friendly!

Steven Geiger

Awesome grill. Not to be passed by.

Beth P.

Had a nice time with my family, glad I didn't have to pick up the tab! I don't feel that you get the value for what you spend..

Jacob Goldenthal

Love this place! Great food! Great Service! Great prices!!

Michelle Khandadash

It's a nice restaurant with enough tables inside and outside. It seems like every time I go, it's packed but there is still room. Service is okay. The prices are a bit on the higher end, but food is yummy. My all time favorite go-to is the Chicken Taco Salad Bowl, just in case you're having difficulty deciding what to order ;)

Jan Holland

Overpriced....small portions....and worst hamburger I have ever had. It was full....and I mean full of gristle. Will never go back. Oh...and tasteless empanada.

Arthur Zavulunov

Awesome kosher food and staff is amazing!

Eliyahu Farkas

Large kosher menu, with a very large selection of foods and very nice waiters . I would highly recommend this place if ,and I mean if,your willing to pay for the food which is very expensive.

Chris N

I wanted to like this place because they are allergy free, but it was not what I expected. The beef pastry had no flavor, it was tiny and it was about 3X the price as it should have been. This places is trying to be something it is not.

C. F.

Delicious Kosher Latin food, extensive menu, friendly staff.

Stan Alhadeff

Great food

Eli Ebrams

Will definitely come back. It's reasonable kosher food pricing and the food actually tastes good!

Nathalie Green

I love this place! The service and food are always amazing, and it's the closest I've gotten to real South American food outside of Argentina.

Rhythm Culture & Opinions

Good food but small portions and EXTREMELY overpriced.

Bubblegum1223 Drinkngas

Food is good but very expensive.

Oluwaseyi Adeniyi-Omoakin

Very nicely done steak up in this place.

Jaclyn Cruz

Good place to hang and eat some good food. The staff was very helpful and observant. Similar to a place in Denver I liked.

Alberto Aguirre

Awesome South American cuisine, yuca fries are great, try also the tostones with chicken. My salmon came with fried plantains and black beans. I am glad I found this place.

Nichole Gunn

This place is delicious! The BEST black beans and plantains I’ve ever had. The tofu steak is my favorite and the best in Atlanta. The owner is very sweet and talks to everyone, and the servers and cooks are on point! Never disappoints.

Joel Stauber

This place has the best food in town. Friendly and helpful staff. It's a pleasure to eat there.

I. Bruce Hoffman

Excellant

Eliyahu Bari

Sweet plantains rock! Steak doesn't hurt either!

Carlton Houston

I hear the food is good, but my experience had me ubering away as fast as I could. Never had a more rude and abrasive customer service situation in my life for any reason. Note their reason was valid and something I respect, but their lack of tact and a general disregard for my friends and me leave a sour taste in my mouth. Proceed with caution.

ilona lyubashevsky

Great food.

Jonathan Grant

Delicious quiet atmosphere

Yisroel Lehrer

Fastest service I've ever gotten at a restaurant. Food was really good. Sangria was a great way to wash down a great meal

LIDOR COHEN

Great food, great service, great scenery and yeah great food. If your in Atlanta and your kosher this place is a must.

Scott Walker

Great restaurant with amazing options for gluten or dairy free. I believe most if not all of their food is kosher as well. I'd highly recommend this place.

Eve Adler

The food is always good and the owner is very friendly.

David Shapiro

Since being taken over by new management, this restaurant has become a gem in Sandy Springs. New menu offerings, improved service, yummier food! If you have been there before, it's time to return! If you have not been there before, you must try it. We take our staff there periodically and they just rave! Glad you are back, Udi!!!!

Tomer Dagmi

Hi I love the food !!! Healthy and delicious food . FuegoMundo is the cleanest most customer friendly restaurant. I'm here every day (almost). THE BEST RESTAURANT IN ATLANTA! see For yourself. You wont regret it!

Kyle Zemel

Awesome food but made us wait a hour for our food because they accidentally deleted our order

Aaron Feldman

This place is a must visit for every kosher traveler visiting Atlanta.

Donald Katz

Great steaks with wonderful seasoning. The variety of South American appetizers made us happy, and we sampled a bunch of them. Felt the dishes were huge, and had trouble finishing them all. Love the open kitchen. Also have a great wine selection. Prices are high, but the quality matches the price. I wish their lunch menu was available on Sunday because the different offerings looked great.

Gedalia Walls

The food is really good, so are the desserts. The wood fire bbq really enhances the flavor. I don't know if it's authentic Latin, but it's better than most places. Certainly upscale and quality beer selections.

Elchanan Zuckman

Excellent food and service

Amanda Ellis

Delicious food and superb service! Highly recommend:)

Jeff Brower

Good kosher food not the traditional Jewish food Only problem start looking for parking space

Kenneth Medina

I felt that the portions could have been larger, but my steak had more bone in it than meat and the price was way too high for the meal I ordered. The sangria I had ordered was water down by too much ice and all the fruit was stuck on the bottom making it taste like flavored water. The food itself had decent flavor, but I like more of the authentic flavors from South America and the Caribbean.

Shia Fasten

Great food, fast service.

Jason Smith

Don't confuse this for a steakhouse. Server corrected me on how I should order my steak....really? Just write down what I say, if I want it med-rare then that's what I want. I don't need you telling me I should have it medium. No REAL cheese for a cheeseburger (no bacon either), non-dairy chocolate desserts, $64 ribeyes, if memory serves. The food that made it to the table wasn't bad, but with all the limitations on the menu, I'd stay away. Unless vegetarian, kosher, and GF is your thing. I would never bring anyone here, ever. Aside from the fact that this place isn't vegan-only, it reminds me of the vegan restaurant they visited in Grandma's Boy.

Ron Alkalay

Great food, clean, inviting, friendly

Joshua Silverstein

Good food, but a little pricey

Ty Rosales

Great combination of hispanic foods.

Don Emanuel

The food is delicious and service is vey fast

Simon Masri

Good kosher restaurant. Meat and vegan friendly

Ezra Flom

Hands down the best kosher restaurant in Atlanta. Excellent food, service is also good. You won't be disappointed.

Jeannie Hasty

Delicious

Brian Fried

Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Nice service too!

Britta Mueller Ho

Went several times for lunch and really enjoyed the place. Very friendly service and consistently good Latin food. Especially liked the Yuca fries. Parking can be tricky during lunch time.

Rachel Bodenstein Linkwald

They were great tonight when I showed up with two kids while hubby was out of town. It sounds crazy, but their rice is amazing! Just rice, right? I need to crack that recipe. I am a pescetarian (vegetarian, eats fish), and despite it being a meat restaurant, there's plenty for me to eat. Don't miss the dip for the yucca fries.

Sydney Hodges

It's so delicious. Service is typically above par.

bob charles

Amazing! One of the best kosher places I've ever been to! Whoever gave this place one star must not have been in a good mood.

Donna Bowen

First time here. Nice location, clean, great food selection, and excellent service, and food presentation with a variety of serving dish. Our food was delicious.

Zack Raab

Schnitzel sandwich was incredibly tasty and the service was great!

Euro Steps USA

Absolutely amazing food accompanied by amazing service... menu very versatile and every dish was spot on.

gabby natt

Fuego Mundo is a great place to eat and sit, family or friends. The food is superb and has a everlasting taste. The staff is very friendly and welcoming to all guests and is very on top of their game. It's a great place to eat whether it's breakfast, lunch or dinner. It gives off the best latin american vibe and plays great music. Definitely one of my top favorite resteraunts.

Nechemia Shoub

Great food great staff A+

Vicki Darnell

Nicely grilled meats. Fresh sides. Kosher. Very casual restaurant.

Nadav Erez

Great place, I definitely recommend it. Everything exceeded my expectations!

Leah Daley

Bad service food and expensive. Stay away

Jun Mo Yang

Didn’t even get to have my food. We got in here at around 7 pm ish. The server took us to the table. We placed our order. But we had to cancel because of such a rude behavior from the server and a college boy who looks like he is the manager. The place has nice ambiance, and the food is decent based on my past visits, but the arrogance and rudeness demonstrated by the restaurant is not befitting of its nice look. It was a surprisingly bad experience, because we always had a good down-to-earth vibes in the past. It seems like this place wants to establish itself as a fine dining restaurant, but there is a big difference between being proud of its food and being arrogant and snotty.

Gary Orlin

It is by far the best kosher restaurant in Atlanta. Keep in mind I believe there are only 7 to choose from. The atmosphere and food are good with a wide selection. Price are a bit high but that's because it's kosher.

Jenna Taylor

I went to eat here with my Colombian friend in hopes we had found a new Latin American yummy place to eat. We were disappointed by the fact their food was not authentic Latin American food at all. The only Latin American things on the menu were yuca fries and plantains (which were clearly frozen products from a Walmart or some other grocery store). I ordered the Spanish rice and was highly disappointed. I could have bought Spanish Rice A Roni and it would have tasted exactly the same. To add insult to injury our server was not attentive to us all. At the end when we told another server our grievances with the food, she came over and said she thought we were high schoolers. I'm guessing that made it okay for her to neglect serving us. When we mentioned we were both teachers she acted as if she did not believe us and asked where we went to college and where we teach. The owner was at the restaurant the whole time and never once came to apologize for our experience personally, but he chewed out our server publicly. I would not ever recommend this restaurant to anyone! Especially if you are looking for Latin American food.

Aaron Greene

Very authentic and delicious food.

ID J.

Fantastic menu, very tasty food. Amazing Hamburgers and chicken wings.

Yehonatan Schwarzmer

Great food, nice ambiance

Darth Paul The Smithlord

I've been here probably 6 times, each time in search of "the" menu item for me. (Yucca bread doesn't count. That is a must. That is a given. As the night doth followeth the day, yes, order A LOT of that.) I never reviewed because I was still searching. Tonight I found it: steak tacos. 5 stars? A million stars. A mouthful of ecstasy. Hence this review.

Mordechai Pollock

Great food, great service.

Elad Asulin

OK food, considering it is Kosher. The meat quality is good but the cooking quality is no better than Steak and Shake so do not expect Uruguay here... bit expensive but not crazy. Service is good but be prepared for a forced %20 tip. Waiters I believe do not get paid much (if at all) there so you pretty much are their salvation.

Teresa Acosta

Was excited to try this place as I had heard good things and find it difficult to discover worthwhile Latin American food around here. Never actually got to try the food though, as the waitstaff was so appallingly rude, I left before ordering anything. Maybe the food is good, but work on your front of the house. It’s equally important.

Juan Hernandez

This place is not what it's advertised as. I was expecting food from Latin America. Instead options are things like Teriyaki chicken. Hmmm. I was expecting Cuban, Colombian, Venezuelan, Mexican food, etc. Not here. The only thing Latin was the salsa music playing in the background. And the menu is rather pricey.

ELON KAHN

My daughter once work here.We love the food and the service was amazing.#jewish

goom bash

One of the best kosher places in the country! Not just Atlanta!

Jacqueline Burch

I love eating here. It has a great interior.

Yisrael Schwartz

Really a nice delicious meal. Great food!

shmuel wolf

been there a few times in last few months, the quality is up tremendously lately, i think a change in management, food was great! service was great!

Mercedes Perez

Disappointed. Should not be be called Latin American, say fusion better. Everything is. like they put on the menu "Latin" plus just because it's kosher equals high prices.

Blues Baby

Fantastic Food, Great Atmosphere if a little small. The prices are also very good. The only thing I don't like about the place is the setup. You order up front and it gets delivered to you. Normally not a deal breaker, but this place get's packed for dinners and you find yourself waiting, and waiting just to order. Once you get the order in though, the food comes out pretty quick and is beyond delicious. All in all, the waiting and waiting in line is worth it, just wish it wasn't an issue to begin with.

Razor-Edge Paper

Awesome dining experience. Great food and atmosphere. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Love it

Pamela Chance

Really tasty and excellent service.

steve hofford

I was in Atlanta with my daughter and friends when we found your great restaurant. Not only was the vibe of the Sukkot great but the sangria, food and service from Liba was exceptional! Can't wait for my next visit.

Mary Jane Cagle

The food is fabulous and so is the service. The great thing is there's something for everyone...gluten free, vegan and dairy free choices. I had the beef/Veal sausage and it was awesome. If going for dinner, reservations recommended but call before 5 pm!

Leigh Shulman

Excellent food. Excellent service. I was impressed by the quality of everything. I live in South America, too, and the meat is as good as Argentine meat.

This Account

Horrible. I ordered a $20 steak salad based on a picture that looked scrumptious. Half an hour later they served me 4 very small strips of steak on chopped lettuce that had turned white with some thousand island sauce. My date's meal looked plastic. Sodas were flat. My date and I walked out. Over priced garbage. Never going back.

REAL DEAL PARKOUR

Amazing service and food

Ivy KillinEm

Terrible place of business. The owner treats customers with disrespect. And you're the owner! SMH

Lindsay Howard

Love FuegoMundo, but I wish they would bring back smores plantains. But perhaps I was the only customer who liked them :/

Ivy E.

Prices are wayyy overpriced. $12 for a glass of sangria and they fill the cup up with ice and tastes watered down from the first sip you take. There's way better South American restaurants to go to. Won't be going here again!

Rachel Valenta

Unique food. Always delicious asks great service.

J Gudger

Just ate here. If I had a chance to speak w/ the manager, I would have suggested he try some of the simple sides, such as the grilled veggies/mushrooms and quinoa, which were both very BLAND and not properly cooked. The quinoa was either old, reheated, overcooked, or all three. Mushrooms tasted like they don't believe in salt. I'm guessing there are other underlying issues in that kitchen.

Debbie Niskin

The food was delicious and the staff very helpful. I tried to write a review on trip advisor but they wouldn't recognize this place. Too bad. We ate lunch and also took take-out for dinner because we were traveling. The prices are good as well.

Rosi Roberts

I didn’t get to taste the food. We walked in and there wasn’t a host. While I was trying to speak with one of the waitresses in an attempt to understand what the protocol was , this fella walked up cut me off and told me I had to wait since I didn’t have a reservation. Not sure how he knew that since I didn’t get an opportunity speak. So we left went across to the Korean spot and it was delicious.

Victoria Smith

Very filling. Will surely make a return trip. The prices are well within reason for the quality.

Mac Lee

Great customer service, Very friendly. Food taste great! Would definitely recommend this hidden gem.

Jase George

i really loved this place. the service was very sociable and kind. the place has a cool feel to it.

Ariza Centurion

Deliciousness, everytime, the salad, the burgers, hot dogs, OJ, everything and it's super clean with friendly staff!

Jeff Levene

I've eaten most of the menu, and everything I've had was excellent. And the service is, at least, good, and usually very good.

Crystal McClendon

Superior customer service. Great ingredients. They really put thought into the menu. Thier sides are gluten-free. They have many vegan options which is AWESOME!! This includes vegan cheese, sourcream, dips, dressing and DESSERT. Don't work meat lovers they taste just like the real thing plus offer they have more than enough for you to choose from. Come check this place out. Service is fast and they will make you feel loved.

Hindy Briskman

Food was excellent , the yucca bread was delicious , we had the churrasco steak , great flavours . Service was so quick they brought out the kids food almost immediately. Kudos to Trayvon our waitress . The owner stopped by to make sure everything was ok he treated us to an extra drink

brianna griffith

Love this place! It has an awesome atmosphere for date night. Wonderful customer service, the entire staff was so nice! Will definitely be back soon.

Aliza Nussbaum

Amazing food and great service! We had such a wonderful time at Feugo Mundo. The food was phenomenal and our waitress Abby was so helpful!

Mendel Tenenbaum

Great customer service! Short wait

Katharine N

I love this place! I'm a vegetarian and was very pleased with their menu I love that they have Quinoa and the beans are fantastic! Vegan, vegetarian and kosher friendly!

Tara zeissel

Prices were a little over for what they had but the food was amazing!

Zoie Wittenberg
