Returning yo celebrate a birthday. We arrived when they opened at 11 am, were quickly seated, and Carlos was our server. He dis really well. We ordered burritos, quesadillias, and beef enchiladas.

The food was good, and the place was quite enough to carry on a conversation.

All around good times.

It’s probably been about 6 months since I was last at this restaurant to eat. No reason for not returning sooner.

Today’s occasion was family get together of about 5 of us. We arrived at around 11:20 am for lunch and were quickly seated.

Our server, Rau,l took very good care of us and was very attentive to our needs. Our drink and food orders were taken, and the food arrived within a relatively short amount of time passing. The food was very tasty.

I had the beef enchiladas, another in our group, had a beef burrito, and someone else street tacos. All enjoyed a great time and good food, and it was easy to talk.

I hope that should you take the time to visit this restaurant, that your experience is as good as mine.

We visited Alamo heights la fonda Friday evening, not busy a few people in the restaurant. It seemed like a nice place with plenty of staff moving about. The Atmosphere was average, staff courtesy was average and the food flavors were nothing to write home about. Food was cold when we received it, staff wasn’t really attentive. Alcohol drinks were okay. The waitress brought out chips and salsa, the salsa was mainly tomato and water. I asked her if she could bring something more spicyer and she said thats all they had. I had the enchilada mexican plate and my wife had street tacos. We ended up going to La Fogata for dessert and coffee, which ended up being a much nicer place.

Ruby our server was the rudest waitress I’ve ever had! Not only did she make me feel unwelcomed she persistented to belittle me when I asked her about my single order. I ordered one drink from the bar, she gave me my bill showing 6 people at my table when I explained it was just me! She went and gave herself a 20%tip! I said excuse me but why would you give yourself a large tip since you didn’t even take my order! She insisted that I was wrong. I’ll never go back if she is working. The bartender was awesome!

The food was marginal. The chalupa compuesta was good, but the crispy beef taco wasn’t good. Just tasteless ground beef and lettuce. The service was poor. The waiter wasn’t friendly and our needs were ignored, or served like we were disliked. My wife, and her very long time friend, grew up in San Antonio and LaFonda was one of their all-time favorite restaurants, but they were astonished by the service level on this trip.

Rome was excellent, attentive and suggested so many delicious items from the La Fonda menu! He provided outstanding service, anticipating all of our needs. For first time La Fonda visitors we will be back and ask for Rome to be our waiter! Thank you Scott and Abby Brickey

Working with the staff at La Fonda to set up a small luncheon was effortless and wonderful! Angela promptly helped me schedule the menu, date, and answered every question! Everything was set up quickly exactly as we wanted. The food was amazing as well! Huge shout out to Rome, our outstanding staff member, who took such great care of us! We can’t thank you enough! We’ll all be bringing back our families to enjoy your hospitality again!

I went for lunch on a weekday. The food was decent overall, but the start was a little rough.

There was no host on duty when we arrived, so we stood waiting for several minutes before finally approaching the bar. The bartender said she’d get someone to seat us, and within about a minute, a waiter came to help.

Once seated, service was attentive and smooth.
The Friday fish special (tilapia, $11.99) was fine but nothing memorable.

The bean and cheese nachos with guacamole and jalapeños ($12.49) were a bit better (but pricy for what they were).

The sticker shock hit with the price of the drinks: A Negra Modelo was a fair price of $6, but the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc was an eye-popping $14.99 for a single glass. That’s MORE than the cost of an entrée, and it felt out of step with the rest of the pricing.

The price of a glass of wine brings them down to 1 star. Everything else was good, but the wine price was highway robbery. I was shocked by that!

On the plus side, the parking lot is huge, so finding a spot was no problem at all.

Lunched real quick and server Frankie was awesome!Mr. Bill talked to me for a future event and he was so attentive. They hold graduations, wedding, business parties, and they are flexible and not outrageous like other places with deposits and menus and all the shannanigans. Food was great and I love the customer service!!

I got the chicken taco plate which was tasty, definitely try the chile con carne. Great chunks of beef in it, and well seasoned.
