Deli Fuego is an independent Mediterranean restaurant occupying a broad City Road frontage in Cardiff. It serves throughout the day, moving from brunch, coffee and cake into lunch and dinner. The welcoming dining room, bar and family facilities make it adaptable for casual visits, business meals and larger celebrations.
A wood fire oven and grill sit at the centre of the kitchen’s identity. Pizza is baked over wood, while steaks are given a distinctive smoky treatment. Pasta, grilled dishes and smaller plates draw on Mediterranean ingredients and allow the menu to move between familiar comfort food and more contemporary combinations.
Everything is prepared and cooked to order, with sharing dishes available for guests who want a less formal meal alongside drinks. The range is broad enough for a quick bite or a multi-course dinner, and private dining supports special occasions. A juice bar and evening bar add further choice beyond the main food menu.
Patisserie is as important to Deli Fuego as the grill. Homemade cakes, plated desserts and treats to take away make the restaurant suitable for an afternoon visit even without a full meal. By combining wood fire cooking with a dedicated dessert counter, Deli Fuego gives City Road an all day restaurant with a clear Mediterranean character.
Address: 91–99 City Road, Cardiff CF24 3BN, United Kingdom
