Can't recommend this place enough! The staff were excellent, food exquisite, atmosphere magnifico. Fonda is obviously really well managed and runs like clockwork. Don't hesitate to pop in, you won't regret it!
The staff were friendly, professional, competent. Drinks were fantastic. Food was really tasty. We got the 'feed me' option, which was handy when not wanting to have to make a decision, but their whole menu looked yummy. I'll definitely be back when next in Melbourne!
Ordered the chargrilled chicken burrito and had chipotle chips on the side. Had to get takeaways given COVID restrictions, but ordering at the counter was chill, quick and contactless. They also attached a cute message.
FOOD - 5/5. Especially loved the slight crunch to the grain and corn. The sauce for the chicken wa spot on, not too creamy or salty. Fonda also does not fall victim to the classic burrito trap of too much wrap.
SERVICE - 5/5. All members were super nice, everything was packaged impeccably and we got our food in under 8 minutes. Can’t comment on atmosphere since it wasn’t dine-in, but it looked clean and modern!

I've eaten here a few times now, and twice in two days last week. The chicken burrito was SO good, as are the chips. So tasty and, more importantly, crunchy AF. There's a great bottle of cider on offer too. I pitched up the next day for the lunch set menu, and had the chicken quesadilla (also excellent) with the chips (salad is also an option) and house made soda. The soda was probably a little too artificially sweet for me, but for $20 for the lot, it was a great deal. Fantastic no-fuss outlet.
They have a good set lunch which includes either a burrito or quesadilla, fries and a sofa drink. 👌🏽Staff were friendly, restaurant is perfect for small groups and easy to locate

As all the other Fonda venues are - this Richmond location is bright and colourful. Food is always delish and heaps of vegan options, YAY!
Service is excellent at this one too :)
Have tried a few dishes from Fonda; the tacos were deliciously fresh and flavourful, the grilled chicken salad was one of my favourites along with the pulled pork quesadillas, but the burrito, especially the chickpea falafel, was a bit bland. Service was friendly and quick. Fonda was a great lunch option.
Clean, delicious food with good vibes up in Richmond
Lots to choose from and good options for vegetarians. Staff are always friendly however the second time we came, I asked for table water and was told to go get it myself from a bench with cups and bottles. I would recommend the horchata drink.
Grilled chicken burrito with chips and a soda drink: strawberry and mint. The drink didn't really have much strawberry taste or flavour to it but it was quite refreshing.
The burrito is huge, warm and tasty. The grilled chicken was tender and moist. Really nice lunch.
The team decided to order in Uber eats for lunch so we placed a massive order for 12 of us. Despite this challenge the wait and delivery time was good. I ordered the grilled chicken salad which came with cabbage, rocket, quinoa, black beans, sweet potato, corn and tortilla chips. Despite being a salad it was actually quite filling and the chicken had a reasonable heat to it. My only drama was lack of cutlery which could have been a nice addition for those folk who can’t easily pick up their lunch.
One of my favourite places!
The food is amazingly good and so are the drinks! The Coconut Margarita is to die for!
Also, the staff are soooo nice, always with a smile on their face and a welcoming vibe! Definitely going back!
If you haven’t try this place, give it a go… you won’t regret.
Really great lunch yesterday. Food was delicious and drinks were served in a good time.
I deducted one star because when paying via the QR code at the table Fonda automatically defaults to a 10% tip added. I think the default should be zero tip and you choose to add your own.
It was a little more annoying because we were already paying a 15% public holiday surcharge.
This place is amazing and the staff are fantastic!! I'm working just out the front they have been so accommodating and I got some lunch ... Chicken taco... So tender very tasty.. highly recommend!!
Edit - I have eaten here everyday for a week and bit and the tacos are amazing seriously need to check it out so good!!
Great service and food. Portions were big and very well presented. Didn't accept cash payments which is understandable during pandemic. Restrooms were one of the cleanest.
Highly recommended
Good service and food. Cheap happy hour margaritas.
