We have never been to El Fogon, we went for dinner. Our server was good & friendly. I had the pasta with shrimp, my wife had the Camaron Diabla. She said her meal was good but mine was great. The pasta was cooked to perfection...& the sauce was creamy with the shrimp. The portion was generous & plentiful. We each had a beer & our bill was 374 Pesos. Totally enjoyed it & would definitely go back.More

The most expensive angus steak was supposed to be cooked medium but it was all flat and dry. The oven potato arrived after the "steak" was eaten. The messy hand written bill was not correct and of course over charged.

The terrace was full but there was only one waiter present, they didn't have any more drinking water, we waited a long, long time until we finally got our food. It was rather deceiving when it comes to taste and I am not sure whether...my salad was cleaned enough. Also, the restrooms were very dirty. Won't go again - you find many better places in the side lanes of the main street.More

The restaurant is on the first floor overlooking the street so was good to sit and watch the locals and tourists go about their stuff. They have a decent menu and the food was fine as was the service. The food and beers are also...reasonably priced. Entrance is via stairs behind the shops below through a corridor.More

We were very hesitant to enter this establishment since it said Norteno and we are the south of Mexico. The food was incredible, I had pescado al ajillo and it was very well seasoned, my sister had stake and salad and she was very pleased...with her plate. I could come back and eat againMore

Nice terrace and friendly service. My wife had the queso fondido with mushroom and I had a beef burrito. Both of them delicious. Price really convenient!

This is a 2nd floor restaurant and bar located at the center of Palenque. Very good atmosphere and prompt service. The steaks are very good and not too much pricy. You may order 1kg, 500gr, 250gr for various cuts. There are also chorizos and other...local food, also various types of seafood. They serve many types of beer from drought or botarle. Great place for dinner.More

I am from Palenque. I used to be a regular customer at this place because I like the beer on tap. I usually accompany it with meals as well. However, On my last trip to Fogon Norteno, I was given a hamburger and it has...ants on the bun. I asked the waiter to take it away from me and there was not apology or nothing at all. The manager even knows me but she did not bother to come to apologize for such insult. It makes me wonder about the cleanliness of their kitchen. Well, I guess I will have to find another place that serves beer on tab.More
