" Fonda never fails to impress! The guacamole is out of this world, truly the best I've had in NYC. The ambiance is cozy, perfect for a date night. They have an impressive selection of tequilas too. I can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm honestly torn about this place. The food was fresh and beautifully presented, but I found the flavors a bit muted for authentic Mexican cuisine. My companion loved his dishes, but as a Mexican food enthusiast, I expected a bit more punch in the flavors. Service was attentive but not overly friendly, which was slightly disappointing. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fonda has a lovely vibe, perfect for dinner with friends. The tacos were fresh and satisfying, although not the best I’ve had. I would suggest trying their specialty cocktails—they are very creative! Service was good, but they seemed a bit overworked on the night we visited. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thrilled to find this cozy spot in NYC that serves collation-style Mexican food. I had the chance to try several dishes, and everything was delightful. The ceviche and street corn were standouts, and my only complaint would be that I wished the portions were a bit larger. The service was good, very attentive staff! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely brunch experience at Fonda! The Mexican omelette was flavorful, and the drinks were refreshing. I particularly appreciated the vegetarian options on the menu. It can get a bit noisy, especially on weekends, but the vibe is still great. Would definitely visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Fonda for dinner, and I am blown away by their margaritas! The regular margarita is delightful and perfectly balanced. The ambiance is charming, and it feels like a little piece of Mexico in NYC. Highly recommend trying the duck dish — it was divine! Will definitely be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the atmosphere was nice, I wasn't overly impressed by the food. Everything was decent, but I expected more after hearing so much about Fonda. The guac was good, but my main dish was ordinary and a little underseasoned. Service was adequate. " (*Curated Review*)
