I came here from Kansas City, Missouri to visit mi abuelo who lives in Temecula Valley during the KC stow storm this week. We were in search of a good Mexican restaurant that we haven’t been to in Temecula yet and stumbled upon this hidden gem. It’s small but clean. The atmosphere was very welcoming. The service was exceptional. Our server Ana-Maria was able to communicate in both English and Spanish, which was great! I wish I took a picture of my food before I ate it but the taco plate was delicious, I devoured the food as soon as it came out. I would also suggest getting desserts. Next time I come to Temecula, I will be back to visit Fonda Doña Loca!

Wife and I were looking for a new place to eat and stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant. As you walk in, the first thing I noticed was that this place is CLEAN! They obviously take their time making sure that this restaurant is spotless! 10/10
Food: we’re not big corn tortilla fans, but I have never had a corn tortilla like this. They are thick and fluffy almost but have enough stability to know they won’t break on you. I had the tacos, the carne asada and chorizo were seasoned deliciously! Highly recommend!! Their salsas are also very delicious and home made (you get 3 different kinds to choose from at the table) 10/10
Service: the three times we have visited our server, Esme was professional, cordial and easy to talk to. Always prompt on napkins, water, straws, etc. 10/10
Definitely recommend this restaurant as it is our new favorite restaurant! Check out the photos!

You want authentic Mexican food, this is the place!! My second time coming in and I will continue coming back!! The food has a homemade taste, very delicious. The portions are very generous. The service is wonderful and I enjoy the atmosphere. Very clean place… Pictures are from both visit.

New and outstanding hidden little gem just off Temecula valley parkway! Discovered them after a member of the Temecula Talk Facebook group had shared that they had a great experience here, so my husband and I were eager to check it out. We popped in around lunch time on a Thursday so it was pretty quiet. We actually missed it as we circled the parking lot a couple times looking for it—but just look for the restaurant next to Yo Cheesesteak with the outdoor patio! From the time we entered their establishment until the time we left, the service was absolutely outstanding. We were able to sit wherever we wanted which was great cuz we have a 5 month old baby tagging along with us in a large UPPAbaby stroller that takes up quite some space but they had plenty of room for us here. As we waited for our drinks, they served us an excellent Mexican noodle soup with a salty, delicious broth. Very good! As an appetizer, we ordered the Queso Fundido which comes with mushrooms, onions, and chorizo. When she brought it out, it was sizzling and steaming and smelled OH SO DELICIOUS!…and it was! Every bite of it. And how could I forget to mention the homemade corn tortillas…mmm…so warm and fluffy and comforting! I’m seriously starting to drool just recalling how good they were. For our entrees, I ordered the Chile Relleno Burrito and my husband ordered the Steak Fajitas with cactus and onion. As we waited for our meals, our server brought out three different salsas in bottles—a green one, an orange one, and a red one. I immediately went for the green one thinking it would be the least spicy of the three, maybe a mild verde sauce? I was wrong! It was definitely the hottest haha but nevertheless it was flavorful and very delicious if you can tolerate the heat! All three sauces were very, very good to be honest but none of them are mild so this is your warning lol Man, oh, man were we stoked when our entrees came out after a very short wait! This place is quick, which is great when you’re hungry! My chile relleno burrito was AWESOME!!! But I should note that it does have egg in it, which I was not expecting (it does say that it contains egg in their menu so that’s my fault for not paying attention). I could do without the egg but it was still a super delicious burrito and seriously massive! I think I only got through a third of it and had to box up the rest to bring home. My husband liked his steak fajitas but he thought the pieces of steak were a little thin and maybe better suited for a burrito rather than stand alone fajitas. I agree, they were very thin but they weren’t bad. We’re excited to go back and try some of their other dishes! Overall, great new spot! I hope they do well in Temecula!

Been here twice already and the food is so good. The drinks are good as well. We have had the same girl help us twice and she’s always so kind. On the weekends it gets pretty busy but other than that everything is great 🙂

This is the spot! We had the chilaquiles poblano and my wife had the chorizo and eggs with hash browns on the side. To tell you this place is delicious is an understatement. The service is friendly, the restaurant is clean, and the food got to us quickly in less than 5 minutes despite a good amount of people in the restaurant. Every single thing we ate was quality and the chorizo is just right. We will be coming back and I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Fonda Doña Loca is a fantastic spot for authentic local cuisine! The refried beans were absolutely delicious, and I loved all the flavorful sauces they offered on the side. I ordered the carne asada nachos, and they did not disappoint—so tasty and satisfying! The atmosphere is welcoming and genuine. I’d definitely go back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal.

I didn’t think it was possible to rival my mother-in-law’s cooking but here we are! So delicious and fresh, I accidentally ordered a spicy version of the chilequiles and they brought me out a new plate when my palate couldn’t keep up. The wonderful servers Fernanda and Malorie took great care of us, a must try in Temecula for breakfast!

Great friendly service! I had the red chilaquiles, and I didn’t know I could decide on the spice level. They give a complimentary “sopa de conchita”. I would definitely come here again.
