Fuego

Food looks gorgeous, sounds fantastic, tastes ok. If you want atmosphere and super hospitable staff, you will like this place. If you want your tastebuds to be amazed, try somewhere else.

I visited Fuego around a few times now and if you want a exceptional steak then this is a great place to pick. Argentina is famous for its meat and rightfully so. I have eaten plenty of Argentinian beef at home and Fuego serves the same quality as I would normally prepare myself. I would say go all-​in for the meat and don’t focus too much on the starters or desserts. The service was fine and the interior has a nice warm feeling.

Nothing much to say. I absolutely love this restaurant. Great wine, great beef and great staff.

Read as 3.51. This restaurant is just down the block from our hotel. It was recommended by one of the front deck staff. She made us 7:15 reservations and we walked down a little early because the walk was shorter than we had anticipated. As we walked up to the restaurant we could see their immaculate basement kitchen through plate glass windows. It’s on the corner, up three stairs, through the front door and up 4 stairs more. We were celebrating 35 years of having lived together, though we didn’t tell them that, so we wanted a special occasion restaurant. We were greeted promptly, seated at a two top against a wall of windows and given menus. They have 4 prix fixe dinners. If you deviate from them you are charged à la carte prices.
Then we waited, maybe as long as 10 minutes, to be acknowledged. Eventually our server came over. We both ordered the empanadas, which had been well reviewed, and the churrasco, which appealed to us both. The churrasco came w polenta sticks and sliced mushrooms. These were from two different dinners. Alan didn’t order dessert. I ordered crème brulée, though I really could have been fine w/​o it. We had still water to drink and I had a glass of their house red blend, which was full and delicious. We were brought a basket of their house-​made bread and a small container of butter The bread was amazing, slightly sour, very crusty, w/​the inside tender and almost custardy but firm in texture. We could have eaten it all, but we didn’t.
The empanadas were delivered, accompanied by a mixture of lettuces. They were filled w/​ground beef, cranberries and nuts. They were good. The steaks come in a small portion (I forget the number of grams) and a large one. We both opted for the small, mine rare and Alan’s medium rare. Alan explained his need for low salt, so there was no salt added and the sauce was served on the side. After we had ordered, Alan decided to order fries, flagged our waiter down and requested them. When the steaks arrived they were more than adequate in size. We were glad we hadn’t ordered the larger portion. Alan’s was too rare for him, so he requested it be done a little more, a request our server readily accommodated. He brought it back and then, as he brought the fries, noted that they had salt on them, apologized for not making sure they were salt-​free, turned around and took them back to have them redone w/​o salt. We very much appreciated the way he had handled it, although Alan said he (Alan) should have said something about it when he ordered them. The steaks were delicious and the polenta sticks were tasty. The mushrooms were a meaty festival of umami. The fries were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and very good.
Our plates were cleared and then we waited and waited and waited, perhaps 15 minutes. Finally Alan asked about my crème brulée. Our server said they were just preparing it. By this time I was regretting having ordered it. After another 5 minutes or so he brought it. It was very good, but the wait had left a bad taste in both our mouths. Then we waited again for the check. Alan went up to the front and paid and then we left. Granted, there was a bit of a crowd tonight, but not enough of one to cause such lengthy waits. Given the excellent quality of the food, the restaurant would have easily rated 4+ stars. Absent the waits, service was good enough that we couldn’t rate them less than 4.

Me and my whole family had a really good night at this place. Good food to affordable prices and a well chosen wine menu. We had an allergic guest with us but that was never a problem, the head-​waiter took special care of all the food to this guest, and made sure that there was none of the mentioned ingredients in the menu to the allergic guest.
The only negative thing I will mention is the noise! During the dessert it was basically impossible to have a conversation because of the noise.
Otherwise… Well done

Un endroit très agréable, une nourriture excellente et un personnel très attentif. le tartare de bœuf est à mourir de bonheur la viande à hauteur de sa réputation. Restaurant à recommander pour sa qualité de son menu. Le prix est correct pour un norvégien sans doute un peu cher pour les Belges mais quel bonheur de passer une soirée agréable dans un lieu agréable. Nous avons pris du vin argentin très bon

OK, but nothing special. Good and decent food — and a slightly different selection compared to your standard steak restaurant in Copenhagen. I would gladly come back, but I would definitely not pick a fight to get back.

Celebrated a Valentine’s day at Fuego. The food is absolutely delicious, yes their meat is special and one of us had the mixed grill plate including sweet bread and the other one had a steak. Everything was tasting superb. The only annoying point of our dining experience was again tables being too close to each other and being exposed to some Danish staring at us. I really don’t understand why these people love watching others while eating. Please keep the tables a bit more separated Fuego! I would definitely go back.

Superbe steak house argentin, des viandes superbes, une carte des vins fort sympatique. Une très belle découverte.

Honestly, no idea why there are no reviews for this place yet. I remember stumbling on this restaurant after a cold afternoon out with my family, visiting the city in December 2010. We had a really good time at Fuego! I remember the staff being very nice… attentive and friendly!
I don’t remember exactly what we all ate but everyone at the table was satisfied with their meal. Appetizers were good. Their speciality is Argentinian steak, and it didn’t disappoint. From what I remember, steak was perfectly cooked and tasty! They also had decent wine and yummy dessert.
This place is however pricey, but hey, what isn’t in Copenhagen :) I felt it was really good value for money and the atmosphere was nice. I’ll definitely go back when I visit the city again!

Un accueil impeccable, un service impeccable, une entrée toute en saveurs, une viande argentine à faire chavirer les papilles Une petite déception sur le dessert, mais rien qui vienne gacher la fête, surtout pas l’excellent vin de la maison à 485 DKK. 4 menus vous sont proposés sur de sthemes Terre /​Mer, et si vous decidez de croiser les entrees/​plats/​desserts vous passez à la carte.
Vin et aperitifs compris, comptez 1700 DKK pour vous faire plaisir, mais ca les vaut sans hésiter. Un must à Copenhague.
