Reviews for Fuel Restaurant in Jackson, MO
Went for are first time to check out this establishment having heard a few good reviews. Well are experience was underwhelming... at every turn and if not completely disappointing and not remotely what we expected. The good , are server was nice andfriendly especially with are small kids . The bad , same server was not very knowledgeable didn't know the special's even onTaco Tuesday at a Taco bar. Second if your hungry don't bother the portions are kid sized 4 inch taco's think slightly largerthan half a taco bell or taco John's taco. And there not cheap $3.5 -$4.5 per taco . Lastly it's very expensive for taco of thecaliber and sizes served $30 spent for 6 tacos and left very hungry didn't bother with drinks at $9+ each that we're also smallthink whiskey glass was the largest drink I seen . The taco's, the biggest disappointment was a shrimp taco with 1 yes "1"piece of shrimp on it for $4.5 the rest was a filling see pictures and tell me if you can find the shrimp taco . Then there wastacos they were out of so had to change order . The pulled pork was 60% pimento cheese and had no BBQ flavor at all . The basicsteak taco(my favorite) was very tasty but was very underfilled with 6 Suger cube sized pieces of steak . My wife's chicken tacowas her favorite and was mercifully filled with decent amount of meat, I also got a fish taco that was the other end of thespectrum so full you couldn't fold it which was nice given the other taco's and it was tasty if but very very watery to eat .The other 3 where nothing special to right about frankly and I can't even remember there name. Let's just say most the meat wasvery salty . We asked about the food especially the shrimp taco and was told "everything was made as it is supposed to be." Conclusion looks great in pictures, Small sizes, expensive , and you will leave hungry or broke. Read more
First off, I grade taco places hard. If your gonna be a taco place you better bring your A game. I had 1 chicken and cheese... taco, 1 pork bbq with pimento cheese and 2 biria tacos. Chicken and cheese was a solid 9 for a classic taco. Bbq pork was goodafter I removed half the pimento cheese. Otherwise, the pimento was over powering. I?ll say 6 since I had the remove the cheese.Fix the cheese and it?s a 9. Biria taco?s were not great. 4. The seasoning was wrong and the consume was thick and dark.Everything was just salty with no real spice flavors. Elote was decent. 7 My wife had the bbq as well. 7 after removing partof the pimento. Also, she had a Jamaican Jerk. There was no spice to it. She could only taste the salsa. 6 Carne asada wasvery bland. 5 Shredded duck was juicy and had good flavor. 8 My mother-in-law ate the fuel burger. It was a good burger withno complaints. 8 Scale 1-10 Also, there were ants everywhere outside. Read more
Went here for their one year anniversary celebration. Ordered tacos that were excellent. They had a band playing on their... parking lot in back, which was a nice touch. You?ll pay at least $3.50 a taco and will need about three to fill you up. Verygood food and service. I would recommend eating here. Read more
Finally decided to give it a try today for lunch. Im not much into "exotic" ingredients and food so I stuck with crispy tacos. ... I got the Basic B lunch. I had to Google what Brazilian rice & charro beans were since that's what it came with (& a 32 drink) Figured I'd give it shot & boy it did not disappoint!! The tacos were AMAZING!! I could've gone for a couple more! The beanswas like chili & so good! The rice was a little chewy but maybe thats how this type of rice is...still good! Will definitelybe going back! Read more
On my many travels I try to find the gems. No matter if it?s big city or small town, and boy Fuel did not disappoint. To start... the service was great, our server and the bartender were friendly and accommodating. The guacamole was top tier and I definitelyfigured out the secret ingredient, however I will keep it between friends! I ordered the birria, the jerk, and elote. My husbandhad the philly, the jerk, and the Korean which were all great! We will definitely be back on my next visit to that part of town! Read more
I?ve been driving past this place since we?ve been in town for the last few weeks and wanted to try it. Today being a beautiful... day seemed to be a great time to stop by and enjoy a late lunch on the patio with my mom and dog (wasn?t crowded so I was happythey could accommodate us). ALL of the tacos we had were amazing and I even ended up ordering a few to go for myboyfriend. I?ll definitely be back and would recommend this place to anyone! Read more
Delicious! Baja salad was amazing and there's a wide selection of tacos so there's something for everyone. Can't wait to go back... and try more menu items. The staff is courteous as well. Read more
Nice blends of flavors in the selections of tacos. The small size (4") means that you can try several (I ordered three from the... three categories available). I also ordered a beef nachos appetizer, which was very good. Their nacho chips are light anddelicate. Members of my party ordered a variety of mixed drinks. They enjoyed all of them. I'll definitely be back the next timewe visit our Missouri family. Read more
