“ A delicious, richly-flavored breakfast with classic diner-style service. An unexpected surprise when visiting Norman. ”
“ BEST. OMELETS. EVER. Whenever I visit Norman, this is my absolute favorite place to eat. Consistently savory. Friendly service. Delicious breakfast every time. Best of all: I get the pleasure of supporting a small business. Juan del Fuego serves generous portions, with plenty of sides, fillings, and sauces to keep you coming back to try different combinations. I love getting a side of pancakes with my omelet--a little bit of cakey sweetness with a little bit of skillet-greased egg. You can select from a variety of pre-prepared options or create a customized order of your own (I can't ever say no to avocado on mine!). Juan del Fuego is happy to cater to your personal preferences. Fans of breakfast food, especially: don't drive past this one! It's an absolute hidden gem. ”
“ For all of you far, far west Texas natives like myself (raised in El Paso), and those of you from New Mexico all the way to California, you will love this food! It’s authentic New Mexican cuisine. I always get cheese enchiladas with red sauce and their homemade chorizo on top. You’ll love the staff and the atmosphere. If you’re going on a weekend, be prepared to wait...but it will be worth it! Without question, this is my favorite restaurant since I’ve moved to Oklahoma. Enjoy! ”
“ What a nice surprise! We tried to get into the Thai restaurant next door after church and the wait was at least an hour long. So we tried this place out which is right next door! What a nice surprise!! GREAT service and the food was amazing!! Lots of flavor!! Pleasantly surprised by this restaurant!! Nice menu selection of breakfast and lunch entrees! Chips, salad and guacamole--don't pass up your chance to order those as an appetizer! SO good! ”
“ This place is incredible! If it were in my town, I would be a consistent regular! EVERYTHING was outstanding - from the salsa to the chips to the eggs to the enchiladas to the service... (except the biscuits & gravy, which were average at best). If you like Mexican food breakfast - beyond the typical "huevos rancheros" then this is your spot! Family owned and run (our waitress said the owner was the one cooking) and it shows the pride one takes in their own business. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ”
“ Wonderful place for breakfast or lunch. Really nice salsa, both the red and green sauces are excellent. I prefer the eggs and cheese enchiladas but will often order other items. The staff is great and always makes great recommendations and always makes you feel welcome. ”
“ When we travel out of state, we stay away from “Mexican” food to avoid disappointment. This place was recommended by a friend and we were glad we went. My husband’s had the Chipotle Burger and it was yummy. I had the special on the board and it to was fantastic. Service was fast. The place was super busy, but we waited no more than 10 minutes for a table. The wait is worth it. This Texan was happy with this place! ”
“ The family surprised me with a brunch outing at Juan del Fuego for Mother’s Day. Mexican food wouldn’t have been my first choice to celebrate but I’m SO glad they knew better. Although we had to wait about 40 min for a table, the food was well worth it. The waitress was super helpful with answering questions and making recommendations based on kids requests. Highly recommend no matter what you’re celebrating! ”
