La Fogata 1303 Enterprise Drive, Lynchburg, VA 24502

"We had a lovely lunch. The food was freshly prepared. The presentation was attractive and the spicing was subtle and tasty. The service was better than I have had in even some fine dining establishments: attentive, pleasant. Plates were promptly removed, to go boxes provided and beverages refilled. The restaurant was very clean. The cook was authentic and skilled. There were vegetable options on the menu. I did not think to confirm if these were vegetarian. Pricing was very reasonable for what we received. We would definitely return."

"I want to start by saying, this is my first time ever leaving a review for a restaurant. But I had to for here. It’s a cute little restaurant that’s really small. The staff was super nice, but overall, we were paid no attention at all. Me and my brother ordered drinks, and my brother asked for a sweet tea, and she came back a couple minutes later and asked again what he asked for, and still came back with water. He didn’t mind that too much, but then we had to wait 45+ mins for our food. We ordered 3 tacos, and the “H” combo. And then when we finally got our food, my brother got beef tacos when he asked for chicken, and I got some other combo that I hadn’t asked for. The food was overall decent, nothing too special. We also ordered queso, which was super watery. One thing I will say, their salsa was DELICIOUS. But the salsa shouldn’t be the best thing that we had there for a Mexican restaurant."

"For starters I’ve lived in the area for most of my life and yesterday was the first time I’ve heard of La Fogata. We were looking for a “new to us” place and I’m glad we gave it a shot. Like many Mexican restaurants in the US you start off with chips and salsa, which for me establishes the kitchen’s ability. The salsa was excellent, spicy and flavorful. From then on I knew the entrees would be legit and we were not disappointed in any way. Great, flavorful food with a surprising price point. From what I saw it appears to be a family run spot so that’s another reason why we’ll be coming back. If you like Lola’s you will be pleased with La Fogata"

"You simply cannot find better tasting or more authentic food. Generous portions. The only thing I can NOT explain about this place is why it isn't hugely more popular. Perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned. Oh, yeah... perfectly eaten ("

"This place has great authentic Mexican food and is cooked fresh to order. The menu is full of different options. If you like a little spice then you will love it and if not then they can take it off for you."
