" I was a bit disappointed during my last visit to Fonda Moderna. While the tacos have always been good, I felt like the service was lacking this time. We had to wait longer than usual to get our order taken and our food took a bit too long to arrive. That said, the quality of the food was still high, and I appreciate the authenticity of their recipes. The fish tacos were delicious, though I think they could improve on the batter to make it crunchier. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Fonda Moderna for the first time and left very happy! The tacos were delicious, I especially loved the shrimp tacos! The staff was welcoming and friendly, and I enjoyed a nice meal with friends in a comfortable environment. However, the price was a little on the steep side, making it a treat rather than an everyday meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos that transport you straight to Mexico! Everything I tried was bursting with flavor, from the tacos to the salsas. The service was excellent and very attentive, and it was a pleasure to sit outside in the sun. I highly recommend this spot if you have a craving for authentic Mexican tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Fonda Moderna with my family recently, and we were impressed by the variety. Every taco we tried was bursting with flavor, especially the carnitas! The service was engaging, and the place has a lively vibe. Overall, a fantastic experience, but I wish the portion sizes were bigger, especially for the price. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the taco selection is great, I found the pricing a little on the higher side. Still, I have to admit the quality matches the price you pay, likely due to the fresh ingredients and the talent in the kitchen. The setup at Mess Hall is unique, but I do hope for some improvements on service efficiency. " (*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*)
