Fonda Mexican Canberra in Australian Capital Territory

"Fonda is not a bad venue for Mexican food in the CBD. The nachos were good but not sure if we got the one with the meat option because there wasn’t that much. Otherwise everything was good. This was the feed for two. I forgot to take a photo of the corn that is included. Maybe a 3 -3.5 star for the food but the staff are really lovely and it’s nice and bright inside"

"Very disconnected and rely heavily on you knowing what's happening. You order mostly on your phone, and staff not always up to correct knowledge of the menu as you have to guide them on what you've ordered and what's supposed to be coming. Over all good food but not an inexpensive place to grab dinner."

"A Little Slice of Mexico in Canberra! Stumbled across this Mexican café in Canberra and it instantly became a new favorite! The chicken taco was absolutely delicious — juicy, well-seasoned, and wrapped in a perfectly soft tortilla. The balance of spice and flavor was spot on. But the real surprise? The grilled corn. Charred just right, coated in creamy, tangy goodness, and dusted with chili and cheese — an absolute must-try. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was fast and friendly. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this spot is worth checking out if you’re craving fresh, authentic Mexican food."

"Short visit from Sydney 10 out of 10, food is incredible as all the Fonda are, and the Margaritas are the best of one (cucumber, my favourite), the Mushroom taco is simply yummy, the team are friendly and attentive, beautiful venue and really nice vibe"

"If you’re in Canberra and you like Mexican just go here! The croquettes, jalapeño bites and the fully loaded nachos! Wow!!! Staff were friendly and service was quick. I was here for 4 night and I ate here 3 times! Well worth a visit."

"I love the prawns tacos, the corn is extremely delicious and cucumber and lime soda is so refreshing!!! Staff are friendly and welcoming!!!"

"Had a great time at this restaurant! Got seated very quickly by staff after just walking in despite it being a busy Saturday night. We placed our order via the mobile site and our food and drinks were out under ten minutes later. The Feed Me (For 2) was great value and the portion sizes were just right for two people. The nachos were amazing, the mushroom tacos were full of flavour (and this comes from someone who usually doesn’t eat mushrooms) and the sweet potato quesadilla had so much flavour. The let down of the meal deal was the corn which would have been better just buttered than caked in seasoning. Smoky Mac & Cheese Croquettes are also highly recommended! All food came out piping hot! Service was good and I will forgive them for asking us to fill out a survey mid meal because everything else was so good! Also great music here, never used Shazam so much at dinner time! Will come back again."

"Fonda Mexican is a decent Mexican restaurant that serves up your favourite Mexican dishes, from burrito to quesadillas to nachos and more. There are daily lunch deals as well as lunch meal deals. Ordering is by the QR code on the tables. There are printed menus on the table that help with selection. Service on this occasion was a tad ordinary tough this could be due to new staff. The meals are tasty and drinks are refreshing."
