Fogon and Lions: Authentic Spanish Tapas and Cocktails in Alpharetta

Another ghost review where I reviewed this place years ago so let's see of this one sticks. The first time we went here a year ago the food was fantastic, unfortunately this time was not. We ordered the beef tips, a bit overcooked making them a bit chewy. Then the develed eggs, I'm not sure what they were going for but these were not develed eggs. Very bland, lacked flavors all around. Served on French bread that needed to be toasted. The chicken soup was excellent, had all the flavors you'd expect in a Spanish style dish. Service was great. Greeted right away and with a smile. The atmosphere is great as well, very calming and relaxing. Would I come back? Not sure.

This was our first time dining. The food, service and atmosphere were absolutely fantastic! Its some of the tasty food I have ever eaten at a restaurant. Our server, Marley, was very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the best choices on the menu for gluten allergies. My family is already planning a return trip very soon.

We had such a wonderful experience at Fogon and Lions last night, largely thanks to our incredibly kind and attentive bartender, Chave. I came in with my boyfriend and his brother, and from the start Chave made us feel so welcome. I tried the Rosa Caliente, a mojito, and the house margarita - all were absolutely delicious. The Rosa Caliente was hands-down my favorite, and my boyfriend commented on how much he liked it too. He ordered both the Palomita Ciega and the smoked old fashioned, and while he enjoyed both, the smoked old fashioned was definitely his favorite — very smooth and well done. Chave recommended the steak tips and they were honestly so good - definitely a highlight. On top of the great drinks and food, the atmosphere was lovely. The Christmas lights were such a nice touch and made the space feel cozy and inviting. Overall, Chave was so friendly, helpful, and attentive the entire time, and truly made our night better. We'll definitely be back - thank you for such a great experience!

All good things about Fogon and Lions. We’ve been coming since they opened and keep coming back over and over again. For birthdays, with family and/ or friends visiting, for dates (without the kids), with my girlfriends… exquisite food! So so so good! And we still haven’t tried everything on their delicious menu. Thank F&L for the great service you guys always provide, excellence in food and good ambience. Many years to come… cheers

Wowww! This review has to start with wow. I was be remiss if I didn't start off the year by recognizing the amazing staff at Fogon and Lions. I will not name them individually because I hate to leave someone out of this recognition, especially since they all operate as a very professional, attentive, informative, caring, and highly skilled team. We had more than great food, more than great service, more than great atmosphere, but we had a great experience as a family that we'll never forget. It was truly a Godsend dining at this establishment. This will be a definite regular place and people to visit every time we stop in Georgia. May God continue to bless these people and every who visits in Jesus' name.

Starters was just there, service was fast. You need a physical I.d for drinks with alcohol , digital copy is not accepted. Main course was the best, tasty, shareable and was on time. Staff are polite and nice, also they check in to see if everything is going okay…. The guitar guy singing for the night I was there wasn’t good, sounded more like noise to me than music ( my opinion… don’t judge - some might like it ) . Parking is a little bit of a problem , might find a spot on the road side but paid parking is also available . In general experience was good …I will recommend

Popped in with Puerto Rican friends for a couple Medallia Lites(P.R.’s local beer-totally underrated, give one a try) and empanadas (also very good). Nice atmosphere and owners. They own the pizza joint next door too. Owner / chef stopped by to thank us for coming in. I would go back.

Great food and service! Everything came out hot and delicious, although I will say the eggs with fries and jamón ibérico is not the best option. The portion wasn’t large and for a similar price you could get a sandwhich and heftier portion. Overall though, the atmosphere and service was great and the food was delicious! The corn fritters especially were quite a fun and tasty dish.
