I went here for lunch on a family member's birthday. The lunchtime specials were excellent. A good range of options. All the food was of a very high standard. Good quality ingredients, cooked to perfection, and presented well. Although I'm not a wine drinker, there appeared to be a good selection of wines on offer. There was also a good range of cocktails and other drinks. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was very good.

Great chef (Jose Maria or Mani for the friends) and fantastic service. I am Spanish myself, and I can seriously say that every time I eat there, the flavours from their dishes take me right back home. Superb! The place to eat out if you are a local or just come to visit Swansea

Excellent service, very good food both in quality and variety, we didn't speak much English and yet they understood us perfectly (they speak some Spanish). They have a menu of the day at a very good price and with a lot of variety, we shared several dishes among all of us and everything was delicious.

Amazing place, staff are very friendly, food is fresh and tastes really delicious. Tried seafood options, cheesy crayfish as a starter is fabulous and very generous portion, stuffed mushrooms and scallops are also very delicious. Will definitely visit again, highly recommended. Location is also very convenient and next to Vue cinema. Available car park just next to the cinema.

Ate here a few weeks ago. The lamb shank was incredible and the atmosphere was chilled, not too busy but with a buzz. Staff were lovely too. Only small negative - the coffee a little disappointing.

E. T.

Fried calamari Amazing food, you have to visit , nice waiters and very clear. Drinks are so good and prices are very good.

S. U.

Absolute feast of a meal, all food is fresh unlike other restuarants in Swansea. Excellent staff and great Spanish food.

Me and my husband had a meal on Valentines night the food was delicious, lots of variety and you could not fault the service the staff were very attentive and a lovely atmosphere I would definitely recommend this restaurant

R. W.

Have to say that we really enjoyed the food at this place. Service with a smile. We had a lovely starter recommended by our server. We then had a regular Rump steak which also had a perfect tender touch. Cannot fault it. They may take a small hint from us. Give the outside a better clean modern look. It needs attention. Other than this, PERFECT! Thank you Guys

First visit, Saturday 5pm. No parking at restaurant, but drop off. £1 parking at St David's multi storey across the road, or on street parking on the Marina. Pleasant interior, lovely , accomodating staff & service was reasonably quick, despite the fact that we were a large party. (had to ask for one meal as it had been missed out, which then arrived promptly.) £15 for starter & main - choice excellent & food delicious- everyone cleared their plates. My only issue was no accompanying veg with main, only potatoes. Be a bonus if there was something like peas/ sweetcorn inc in the price.

A. M.

Visited on Valentines night and had an easy table booking process, confirmed by SMS. Good start! We got there on time and the staff member showed us to our table. The place was busy as you would expect however it never looked chaotic. Calmness prevailed. Orders for drinks and starters/mains were taken promptly (when we were ready) and we didn't need to wait too long for the starters. Scallops and whitebait, really nice. I ordered the sardines and my wife the hake. We both really enjoyed the presentation and taste. Finally desert - I had the fudge cake and the wife the vanilla cheesecake. Perhaps could have done with a small pot of cream each on these dishes but they were delicious nonetheless. The bill was presented on silver tray with a rose. Nice touch. All in all, a very enjoyable evening, unrushed and great food. Well done and compliments to the Chef.

We happened to pass the restaurant and popped in to see if there was a table available. Despite being open only for a private party, the staff kindly insisted we could come in. I have to share that the price for what was a most amazing and delicately balanced flavoured meal was astounding, as in, very very good value for money, and seriously delicious food. From the table bread which was lovely, and throughout the meal, it was hot, and all cooked just right! We loved the decor (especially the lights) and the fact that we could see the fresh veg. Also the staff were really lovely and accomodating. To finish we had a takeaway coffee, again, it was seriously good. If you're in the area, this is a must visit restaurant...

Really enjoyed. Used to be an Indian restaurant now a lovely Mediterranean one. Worth a visit 😋

D. G.

I've had better food here before. The most recent time we went it was not a bit disappointing. Shame, will give it one more try before i decide whether to go back more often.

B. S.

Great lunch menu. Excellent service. Definetly recommend this restaurant.

M. J.

The food was superb, great staff. Thank you. Shall e back.

Went to El Fuego for our staff party. We were given a lovely room upstairs. We were given a choice of the alla carte or set menu. I chose the set menu two courses for 16.50. My chicken starter was lovely and juicy. For main I had a fillet steak 2.50 extra). The steak was tasty but I have had a better fillet elsewhere. However, the mushroom sauce was lovely. All in all a lovely end of term meal.

J. D.

Went for the lunchtime menu starter and main for £12, small potions but excellent food with about 5 choices in both starter and main. Cocktails order the same 2 get one half price at certain times and days. All in all a great lunch out in luxurious surroundings with great service would go back and try the main menu another time x

P. J.

Went for a birthday and valentine's Day meal with 5 of us including a toddler Lovey food and lovely staff will happily return again

B. W.

Lovely lunch, will go there again for sure

K. B.

Busy restaurant on a Friday evening, but the service was great, very prompt and the food was outstanding. Staff were really nice and service was great. Will definitely return in the evening and also for lunch.

T. J.

Had a lovely meal there today staff were very welcoming choose of the lunch menu I had chicken croquettes starter and the stuffed aubergine was lush and a good price definitely go back again and try other things

N. S.

Food was lovely and the staff were very pleasant

K. C.

First time here today and not many places get to go on your tick list for a revisit. But this definately did. Service was excellent, professional, friendly and well timed. Food was delicious, ample portion size in the set menu and excellent choice. Definately recommended and definitely going back.

r. a.

Easy to book.relaxed atmosphere. Attentive service and great food.

J. D.

I believe this is the first venue review I've ever left, but I felt the need to praise the outrageously good food served at El Fuego. The Spanish Prawns with Pil Pil sauce was, possibly, the best food I've eaten after five years in South Wales; even the sautéed potatoes were incredible, and they're just potatoes!!?! Wholly recommend, plus they have a fairly extensive menu to cater for all!

L. G.

First time I ever visited this restaurant. There was a group of 5 including my granddaughter who is a fussy eater. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Which we feel were reasonably priced.fast service from friendly staff. The place had a great atmosphere. Will definitely go again and would certainly recommend El Fuego

R. B.

Beautiful food. Very fresh And lovely wine

m. d. t.

All the food that I had (calamari, sautéed potatoes and the salmon) was extremely oily. Way too much oil, it made me feel sick. The staff was okay. But I wouldn’t go back again.

S. M.

We went for the first time tonight for my husband's birthday, everything great, from the welcome, to the very fast and attentive service you have minimal details. Food Delicious you could feel the flavors of the Mediterranean. We will definitely come back. I highly recommend it

J.

Fresh seafood and friendly service! I was pleasantly surprised as I was scrambling for dinner on my birthday - the beach place gave me wrong information about their opening hours which could have made for a bad birthday but luckily led me to El Fuego, one of the last places to be open. I called with 10 minutes left before closing and contrary to the other resto, they were very welcoming and assured me they would stay open for me. I ended up getting takeout but it was great service while I was waiting, with the servers offering me a drink and a seat. I didn't expect their food to be so delicious, which was very flavourful and super fresh! I went to El Pescador the night after and their seafood wasn't as good and I wished I had gone back to El Fuego. Their potatoes, chef's recommendation, were also excellent (crispy skin and soft centre). There are prettier restaurants but if you're simply looking for amazing food and friendly staff, I would recommend coming here.

P. E.

Stunning food and very attentive staff, would highly recommend. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for. I'll definitely return there.

M. F.

Highly recomend great food and service and the two courses for £15 was great value for money

B. O.

Best food in town very good food good people and good atmosphere the duck was well cooked and the sauce incredible . I also like that all the food is fresh

S. (.

Was ok.. vegan and veg options available (1 or 2)

M. N.

Great food, Great seafood, amazing hospitality, nice atmosphere, bit costly on some items but good portions. No beer on tap but they have in bottles. Would definitely return!

A. T.

K. D.

First class food, wine and service in a pretty setting - will 100% return

We had lunch at El Fuego with the children and it was really nice. Kids had one set menu with meatballs and salmon and one salmon with mash instead of chips (which was extra), mixed grill was absolutely fabulous and Mediterranean chicken was very well presented and cooked to perfection. Everything was lovely. Kids loved it; we loved it. Service was good, chef came over to say hello. It was a very pleasant experience and we will surely return! Well done all @El Fuego Swansea!

K. L.

Good service and good dinner set

M. S.

Following C19 restrictions, so plenty of room inside. We were a party of 6, plenty of space around the table. Service was a little slow, and we felt the menu had too much choice but the food was good overall.

K. V.

Plenty of choice on the 2 course for £15.50. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

T. R.

What a beautiful place! Fab decorations and a big menu with lots of choice! Food was delicious and I would 100% come here again and try something else as everything looked great!

G. H.

Came here for lunch today, it was delightful. I was surprised when I walked in by how nice it is. We had the booth which was great. We had brie, calamari, garlic bread and prawn and avocado to start. Whole sea bass and paella for main with lots of sautéed potatos. Everything was cooked really nicely, calamari can so easily come overdone but this was soft inside with a crispy coating. The sea bass was a highlight, again perfectly cooked soft flesh. We came on a Tuesday and they're extending the 50% off deal through September so it was a bargain as well. We will be returning. Thanks guys

s. k.

Beautiful, fresh food. Lovely staff, great choice of alcohol too! Their set menu offers something for everyone as well as their main menu having a wide range of options for everybody's taste. Couldn't recommend enough!!

N. M.

A very pleasant Mediterranean restaurant, with a lovely menu, plus an exceptional separate fish menu. A good selections of wines also. The welcome and service were both top drawer. Nice to be in an independent ( rather than a chain) restaurant, where nothing was to much trouble. ( young son wanted a bambaccino). It was supplied with no bother whatsoever. Highly recommended and will be soon returning

T. H.

Exceptional service and food - we arrived nearly at closing, and at this time dining is only outside due to Covid19. However our waiter sat us at a temp table, took our order and then cleared a lovely table with parasol, produced an ice bucket and candle to make a perfect romantic meal with my girlfriend. Despite arriving close to closing, food was perfectly fresh and cooked. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

J. U.

Food was excellent and better than expected. The service was the highlight of the night for me personally, as someone who’s lived here all my life the waiter really knows how to tend to someone’s needs not many places can compare. Good value for the quality of food, would 100% recommend.

D. C.

Lovely meal and friendly, efficient service.

O.

This is a very nice cosy place to eat out. *pleasant decor, *great food, *friendly,helpful but not intrusive staff, *quite reasonable prices For a sea bass+three starters+6 Oz steak +drinks (non alcoholic) we have paid about 40 £ (with tips) Highly recommend!

M.

Went for dinner last week, food was only ok. Both mains came with one portion of chips, despite menu stating mains came with option of potato portion- this was not given. Chips that were served were not good, I suspect they were oven chips. Chicken was not amazing, very simple, food was pricey for the quality.

r. e.

Good food and excellent lunchtime deal.

M. J.

I took my wife for lunch today, the waitress was brilliant, the staff are excellent, best service I ever received, relaxing environment. The two course lunch menu was fab and delicious, we had two starters to share, I am an enjoyer of meat meals and my wife is veggie - great choices for us both. Free bottle of water placed by our great waitress when we sat, Welsh beer with my lunch!!! Rump steak cooked deliciously in a tomato sauce. My wife had a bell pepper stuffed with couscous. We had a delicious garlic houmous, by far the best I have ever had. We enjoy Bar 44 tapas in Cowbridge, and now we have a great taste of the med near us in Swansea.

N. A.

A lovely peaceful night with a divine dinner experience in this restaurant. My favorite was the grilled salmon dish with a light edgy flavor mix and a perfect texture that just melts into your mouth. I’ve also tried the Spanish paella dish that was nice but I wouldn’t say it’s their signature. The cherry on top for the day was the heavenly baked vanilla cheesecake 😋

M. J.

Absolutely stunning meals! Fantastic menu choice at very reasonable prices. 100% going back!

L. F.

Came here at lunch time on a Sunday and was pleasantly surprised. The food was great and the set lunch prices were good. The service was also top quality; all staff were very helpful and friendly.

We came here on Saturday for a hen party, there were over 30 of us and I cannot fault the service we received. The staff were brilliantly accommodating and they really went above and beyond for us all. Food was brought out piping hot and all at the same time (which I know can be difficult for a large party) Food was delicious and the portions were plentiful. The outdoor area was lovely to sit out and exceptionally clean throughout. I will definitely be booking again. Thank you to the amazing team for looking after us!
