Fonda Mexican Knox

Really good food, and super filling - though the servings *look* tiny! Really good for groups too, if more than 8 people, book in advance and you'll get your own private dining area upstairs! I love the décor and atmosphere as well, all in all, a great dining experience

Impressed with the fitout - In particular the joinery details. However I wish the food was as flavourful as the space. We had a range of dishes. All were pretty bland and lacked flavour. I asked what hot sauces they had and there was only one option - not even a smokey chipotle style one. I needed something as the sauce that came with the food was so devoid of flavour. The chicken in the taco tasted more like something from a cheap souvlaki, rather than Mexican. Coming from Auckland, where Mexico is a popular restaurant, this is what I was comparing it to. So I wasn’t bothered by the price vs portion size, as it’s the same there - however they offer complex and tasty Mexican food, Mexican tap beers and a large margarita menu. The service was confusing. Why do I have to wait to be seated, then have to go up to order and pay before eating? I’d say they’d make more sales with proper table service and paying post meal (we would probably have gotten more food if we’d enjoyed it more and didn’t have the hassle of ordering at the counter). The service was lacking in any charm. Our waitress didn’t really seemed bothered by us and seemed unfriendly. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend purely on the fact that the food was so beige. No flavour - which is pretty impressive for Mexican food.

Good food but pricey

Amazing food every time I go there the chipolte chips and chopped beef burrito are my go to.

Literally the best Burrito I’ve ever had, so fresh and full of flavour! A bit over priced, serving sizes don’t match the price, but it’s quality food.

Great ambience, friendly staff but the food is average. I have had Fonda at Chadstone and it tastes much better and different. Have tried couple of times but would not rate any higher. Its good to have a Mexican food option available within the Ozone, shame its not upto the standard.

Went here with my friends and the staff were extremely rude, the would not allow us to have an extra table as we had 7 people so we were cramped onto one table. one of the waiters kept huffing and puffing and rolling her eyes. food was ok however the treatment from floor staff was horrid. WILL NEVER GO BACK

Cool place to hang out. Favourite is the fish taco. Fish is really fresh and smells great. Found the chicken to be dry a little. Go the fish, sooo good!

Vegan options, including vegan aoili with their chips which are delicious. Very friendly staff. The only thing that would make it better is a vegan cheese option for quesadia

Funky decor, fun atmosphere and polite staff! The chips are delicious and I have dreams about the corn.
