Great location, easy in and out, with plenty of parking. Good for families - reasonably priced filling meals. This menu has Spanish paellas, Cuban barbecue, and Mexican dishes. Usually this type of menu wouldn't interest me, but I pass by it often when I'm in this area, and it's usually pretty busy. I also like the casual vibes that this place and others around it share. I had a Cuban-style half chicken with yellow rice and black beans. My granddaughter had a chicken quesadilla with the same sides. She dug right into the rice and ate most of the quesadilla which seemed quite cheesy. She also ate a good amount of my chicken. I like this style of chicken which has a strong marinade and slow roast with crunchy skin. It was good, though the breast was a bit dry, so I drenched it black beans, as one does. The black beans are solid. They leave the herbs in them and have quite a bit of flavor, good texture, saucy. The yellow rice was a bit dry, but decent flavor. It is a more reasonable price point than many restaurants in this area. For the price point, $25 for two diners, speed of service, and solid food, I'm giving this a four. If it's prices were higher or comparable to its neighbors, it'd be a three. Enjoy.
We enjoy a weekend hangout on the patio with margaritas. The food is awesome - we especially enjoy the Cuban sandwiches and quesadillas. Always quick service and an enjoyable meal!
The paella here is great! It is also a reasonable price for the amount that you get. I called in my order and it was ready when I arrived and I arrived earlier than the estimated time for pick up. The staff was welcoming, helpful and seemed to be happy to be there. It was pretty busy but the staff was easily handling the crowd.
la fonda is an atlantan classic. the service here wasnt great when i went it its a little slow. but the chips & salsa are always so addicting. i got the ropa vieja for the first time and it was delicious. my friend got the ensalada pescado but subbed chicken. great casual lunch/dinner place.
So I really only have had tacos here. But they are all pretty good. The beef is good, the chicken is pretty good as well. It comes with chips and salsa, and rice and beans. The chicken is usually pretty juicy, not dry. But you probably do need the salsa on it too help it along. But I still go back and enjoy it.
This most recent review is the Roswell location but I've been to others and they were all consistent with great food, drinks and service! Good traditional Latin food is not hard to find in Atlanta if you know where to go. The menu is full of authentic cuban sandwiches, a variety of quesadillas (my favorite is the corn and jalapeño one) and delicious sides. Vegetarian Friendly Kid Friendly Indoor and Outdoor Seating
