" Fonda Moderna is simply the best taco joint in town! I have been coming here since I discovered it and there's never a dull moment with their food. The birria tacos are my personal favorite; the meat is so tender and the broth is flavorful. The outdoor seating area is great for a relaxed lunch, especially with friends or family. Plus, their homemade salsas bring everything together. If you haven’t tried them yet, you absolutely have to! They also have vegan options, which is a thoughtful touch. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many great things, I finally made it to Fonda Moderna. I tried the guacamole and chips alongside a few different tacos. The flavors are spot on, and the atmosphere is very pleasant. However, I was a bit let down by the service; it took them some time to check in on us after we got our food. The prices are reasonable for the quality they offer, but I hope for faster service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a frequent visitor to Fonda Moderna for a couple of years now. Their authenticity really shines through in their guisados tacos, every flavor transports me back to my grandmother’s kitchen. I always love bringing new friends here and watching them fall in love with the food. Plus, the guacamole is an absolute must-have. They really create a warm atmosphere that is perfect for gathering. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Fonda Moderna recently and decided to try a variety of tacos. The al pastor was succulent and flavorful, and the homemade tortillas made a noticeable difference. The service was quick and pleasant, making our experience enjoyable. The ambiance is modern and inviting, definitely a place I’d recommend to friends. I can't wait to go back and explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" We are taco lovers and stumbled upon Fonda Moderna while exploring the area. The ribeye tacos were up to standard, but a bit richer than I generally prefer. I also tried their taquitos, which were crisp on the outside and filled with delicious flavors. Service was friendly and attentive, making our experience pleasant despite the busy atmosphere at Mess Hall. Would definitely return for another food adventure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Fonda Moderna, and for the most part, they were met. I really enjoyed the chicken tinga tacos, and the fresh salsa added a nice touch. However, I did feel like the portion sizes left something to be desired. The ambiance is really nice for a food court setup, and the service was friendly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve ate at Fonda Moderna multiple times, and I think it’s time to share my experience! The seafood tacos are incredible—unexpectedly fresh and flavorful. The guacamole is something our family fights over; it’s that good! The prices match the quality offered, and we appreciate the cleanliness of the space. However, I would love to see more table service options instead of just counter service. " (*Curated Review*)
