The assortment of salads, from the Goat Cheese Salad to the Chicken Salad Oriental, provides a refreshing and satisfying start to your meal.

    I tried the New York strip, and it was spot on cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The sides, from the creamy mashed potatoes to the perfectly seasoned green beans, were just as delicious and tied the meal together.The staff here is incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure everything was just right. The ambiance of the restaurant is very relaxing. it’s the perfect spot for a nice dinner night out, whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying a quiet evening.Everything about my experience was fantastic, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

    I don't give out a lot of five star ratings, but Fandango deserves it. We've been coming here for many years and last night was fantastic! Miguel, the manager, is really nice and he seated us at our usual table for two next to the window. Our server Angel was outstanding and funny. He's very attentive and knows what he's doing. The food was absolutely delicious! We started with Caprese, followed by Fresh Scallops (forgot to take picture) and the Abalone special. For dessert, we had the Souffle Grand-Marnier. If you've never eaten here, you should try it. We'll be back!

    Food is great, great portion and taste. We didn't wait for too long for the food nor seating. The restaurant has a cute rustic vibes, it reminded me of my aunt's y old restaurant in England.Loved the souffle, its nicely puffed and not too sweet.

    Came here for Thanksgiving dinner prix fixe and it was surprisingly amazing. I had heard mixed reviews so I wasn't sure what to expect. Service was good, vibes were cute, and the food was great. I had the salmon which was perfectly cooked and seasoned.. My dinner companion had the turkey which she said was also delicious. Will definitely go back to Fandango for special occasions.
