Fish tacos are always delish! Pork tacos are even betterrrr. Weekends are busy so be prepared to line up a little to order.
Fish taco is OHMYGOD! chicken burrito is fantastic and the guacamole is delicious... Ahhh I love love love Fonda! Service is super fast as well
Mucho bueno! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but the beef burrito and taco were a highlight. And the service was ridiculously fast. Outstanding!
Fish taco and fish burrito are winners, also lots of avo comes on the side with the corn chips
Have not had a bad meal here. Ever. I can never not get the horchata . Everything's just super fresh and delicious.
The kangaroo burrito with quinoa is a great choice. Charred corn is a winner too. Nice beer selection too.
original joint, and the fish tacos and beef burritos are great
Seemingly the busiest of the fonda's. Fish taco and pork quesadilla is a good combo.
Beef burrito is great (and a decent sized meal too!)
Outstanding pork tacos . Incredible service. Very reasonable prices. A find!
Slow-cooked Pork and Pineapple Burrito . Outstanding!
Have the tequila shot with the jalepeno and pineapple chaser is unreal!! Fish tacos and salad are amazing!!
The original Fonda. Started by a good friend of ours. A mexican pioneer in Melbourne.
The corn is great. It's a must have
Long wait between my partner's meal arriving and mine. Pretty inappropriate... still, damn amazing food.
The braised pork burrito is awesome. Get in by 6pm to avoid the wait
Make sure that they actually contact you when your name comes up as next to get a table...
Grilled Chicken Ensaladas all the way! Now licensed so wash it down with a nice cold Pacifico Cerveza
Great food, worth the wait, especially when you get a free drink! Thanks Fondzy
Goat taco , Goat taco , Goat taco . Thankyou.
Chicken burritos are delish!
Have a kangaroo burrito and then high five someone for making such an awesome decision to eat here.
Horchata . Liquid dessert :-)
Fish tacos are amazing
Not your typical Mexican. If you think it is, you will be disappointed. Everything was fresh and quality, but just not to my expectation. Seating is cramped and strange.
Fish tacos all the way
Grilled chicken burritos are amazingly succulent!
Burritos yum, yes, but the tacos are definitely the winners!!
Fish tacos are EPIC.
Damn quick service . Gold!
The burritos are over priced. I paid $15 for a beef burrito that had minced beef , not shredded pieces which is what I was led to expect.
Frozen Margharitas . The signature drink of Fonda.
Frozen margarita - cocktail of autumn
Quesadillas
Amazing chicken ensalada !!!
New hipsta joint on the block.
Never that impressed by the food. Wouldn't bother with the one in Hawthorn.
A bit on the pricey side
This place is fucking shit. Avoid
Great cocktails and awesome food. If you can't decide, you can't go wrong with the tacos. - James Panther
Love the ceviche with octopus & prawns, and the quesadilla de huitlacoche! - snarkattack
The lunch special with the mini burrito is brilliant and great value - Tony Kitt
The mushroom, pinenuts truffle oil pizza is delicious. Staff are great. Best roof top beer garden. - Ally Murphy
We visited for the Elton John concert. Great outdoor venue with great sound. Had a great night. - James Ferguson
It’s a great ground to watch sport at if it’s on a round field like cricket or AFL! - Jason Tabrett
