El Fogon Colombian Restaurant Trenton

Food was great! Service awesome, make sure you have your Google translate app up when ordering.

My first time having food from here. We ordered for take out. Service was pretty quick. The restaurant is small though. I’ve eaten at several Colombian restaurants throughout NJ and PA, so my review and opinion is based on what I ordered here and compared with the same dish from the others I’ve had. I ordered the Bandeja Paisa platter which is pretty much a staple in Colombia. The platter was a 8 out of 10. The price is good with all that you get. The meats were all good, though the chicharrón was not as crispy as I prefer and have had before. The chorizo was delicious. The maduro and rice was very good. The beans had a good taste but lacked a little more flavor but still tastes good after I added a little salt and some hot sauce. Overall this place is good. Will definitely come back and try some other dishes!!!

Visited El Fogon on July 15th and had a delightful experience! The Bandeja Paisa was fantastic, and the fried fish was tasty. Coffee was excellent too! Friendly staff and cozy ambiance.
