El fogoncito es un lugar de tradición en tacos, así que no fue difícil elegir qué quería comer en el aeropuerto antes de mi vuelo. Lo único malo es lo reducido del local, si llegas a la hora de la comida tendrás que esperar lugar. Los precios no están inflados como en otros restaurantes del aeropuerto y comes súper rico. El servicio es súper bueno a pesar de tanta gente que atienden, jamás pierden la amabilidad y eso se valora mucho.

Decent food albeit my omelette was a bit on the salty side. The food service was fast and the cafe de olla was good as well. This is about as good as it gets considering it's airport food

Me sorprendió que el servicio bajara los meseros ni están atentos cuando necesitas algo, la carne súper desabrida, el lugar estaba con poca gente y cero sentido de urgencia me sorprendió por qué no eran malos ni lentos
