Our Specialties
Discover our most popular authentic Mexican dishes made with traditional recipes and fresh ingredients.

Our Story
El Fogón Veracruzano was born from a love of family, tradition, and authentic Mexican flavors. Inspired by memories of handmade tortillas and fresh ingredients, we set out to bring the comforting taste of home to our new community in Columbia, Missouri.
Since opening our doors in 2019, we've grown from serving classic antojitos like esquites and paletas to offering a full menu of traditional dishes. Our mission is to serve warm, flavorful food that feels like it came from your grandmother's kitchen.
