This is the place one must try who loves Mexican and is a vegetarian. They do have lot of tasty vegetarian options and my personal favourite is Fonda Nachos, broadbeans and chickpea falafel and herbed mushroom quesadillas. Especially herbed mushroom quesadilla was very warm and juicy with boiled corns in it. One could easily finish it without wanting to share. Burrito was equally good. If someone doesn’t drink or haven’t tried it ever or trying something new for their first time then kafir lime chilli cocktail!
The chicken quesadillas here are amazing! Full of flavour and the sauce gives it a wonderful touch. I wasn't the biggest fan of the herbed mushroom quesadillas as there was an unusual sourness to it but that's totally personal preference as I've seen that many people really love it. The chips are always hot and crispy and go really well with the chipotle aioli. The grilled corn is also delicious however I was a little disappointed in the serving size at $6. I have really enjoyed my experiences at fonda with the friendly staff and amazing food and will be back to try out their tacos!
I always come here with my family to enjoy a nice dinner. Our go to orders are the mushroom and chicken quesadillas which are demolished however this time with a friend we shared prawn tacos and a chicken burrito. I LOVED the prawn taco, perfect amount of flavour to complement the crispy yet soft prawns. I liked that the prawns were bite sized and despite the taco looking small it was very filling. I liked the taco over the burrito but the burrito was delicious as well, I would have loved more guacamole though. Not to mention, it was quiet when we came in and the service was lovely. Can count on me to come back again and again.
One of the down sides of Chadstone I feel, is that there aren't enough bars or restaurants serving alcohol. Sometimes you feel like an afternoon drink whilst out shopping, and I really feel that this is an untapped area. We felt like a few cocktails one afternoon, so we popped into Fonda upstairs in the dining precinct. We didn't want food, but the waitress was more than happy for us to sit in for some drinks. I love the pastel decor and the cool atmosphere. We ordered some cocktails and spritzes, and they arrived quickly. They were delicious and refreshing, and not too expensive. We enjoyed our time here, and it was a pleasant place for a break from our shopping. I would definitely return to this Fonda outlet to try their food.
There is a large variety of food on this menu. I love the decor in the restaurant, very modern and colourful. My favourite taco was the fish taco, it was light and flavoursome. The portions are quite large. The burrito was filling and it was wrapped so nicely. Would come back for a Mexican fix.
The food was delicious, fresh and very tasty! And the ambience was ver cool and employees very gentle.
Fonda is the perfect place if you feel like stopping at a casual eatery while shopping at Chadstone. The decor is bright, spacious and well thought out with greenery and modern furnishings.
I've tried the Grilled Chicken Quesadilla and the Herbed Mushroom Quesadilla also. Both are delicious! I probably prefer the chicken one as I love the jalapeno-basil aioli that it comes with.
For some reason I'm obsessed with their fries, the Chipotle Chips. I have to get them every time I come in as they're just so perfectly crunchy and come with the chipotle aioli which is so tasty.
Good work Fonda!
This place was really great, wonderful ambience and nice vibe. Food was pretty good and that Guacamole is one of the best I've ever had.
I'm not usually a fan of Mexican food but Fonda certainly made me change my mind. We visited their Chadstone outlet on a busy weekend but service remained friendly and efficient. We had the feed me set menu which was reasonably priced at $50 for 2.
The pulled pork quesadillas was the best of all the dishes. The pork was moist, well seasoned and tender. The tacos were fresh and tasty. The tortilla crips were made from blue and white corn - these tasted a bit flat but were saved by the texturally exciting salsa.
I'm starting to be fond of Fonda...
Winter bowls and fries, you can’t go wrong at Fonda. Beautifully presented and colourful plates, we can’t wait to get back here soon. Thanks heaps 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
