Maybe I didn’t order the right thing for a first visit, but as connoisseurs and/of Mexican heritage, it wasn’t great. Took 25 min, cashier on phone texting ignoring customers (me), waited forever for the food. It’s clean, but something is off with the guac salsa, tastes like sink water.
They make their own chips for the guacamole (which I highly recommend), but the chips were a little salty/soggy. Maybe that’s why the didn’t use them in the nachos. Nachos had store bought round chips… toppings on the nachos (chorizo, etc.) we’re good if you used another chip.
Quesadilla tastes like Velveta cheese was used and it was greasy, soggy, and pieces on top of each other so it was a big mess – shrimp was not seasoned. It came with beans and rice and neither were seasoned and didn’t taste good.
I don’t know – I keep hearing good things about this restaurant, so maybe we’ll try the tacos and see how they do.

This place is the taqueria I have been needing in my life! Super authentic! Owned by a sweet family. We have tried the carne asada, barbacoa, pastor, and camarones tacos. All are fab. Then they have this round shaped stuffed item that is made out of the same flour that tamales are and filled with beans and cheese-yum! This is our new go to for a quick lunch or dinner to go. Oh, and the salsa…so delicious, especially the green salsa. The red salsa def has some more heat to it!

Cute place and very clean! The cashier was super nice, it is a family owned place and they are all very nice and friendly.
I tried the tacos and the pupusa, all nicely made and good tasting. Their agua de jamaica was also very good. Will certainly come back and recommend!

Food was decent. For $2.99 tacos I would expect it to be packed with onions and cilantro like other places.

It’s everything you could ask for in a neighborhood hole in the wall. Solid Mexican food cooked and served by a lovely couple. The atmosphere is cool, some seating which is really nice. I always get a torta de pollo and tacos al pastor. Only reason I give it a 4 is because I had a tamale the other day that was okay but definitely had been previously frozen and the texture was off. I will give them another try on my next visit.

Stopped in for lunch today (2/1/23) and had pastor, carnitas, pollo, and carne asada tacos. All the proteins were perfectly seasoned and delicious. Super clean place and friendly staff. The only constructive feedback I’d give is the protein portions per taco were a bit small compared to the price point but that’s me being greedy because of how much more I wanted. Fantastic hidden gem. Will be back

The food at Fondita tastes as wonderful as anything I had on the streets of Mexico City. The carnitas were an absolute triumph. The al pastor perfectly grilled. The chicken tender and delicious. And the salsa rojo was a perfect compliment to it all. I finished it off with a perfectly balanced (and enormous) tres leches, another win for this tiny operation situated next to a gas station somewhere in suburban Atlanta.
The aquas frescas are bottomless, and the horchata alone calls me back. They have other classic staples such as pozole and huaraches. I was absolutely kicking myself for missing the molé special and I may have to go back a few days in a row to try everything.
My only request is that they make a salsa verde with tomatillo. The current salsa is much closer to a remoulade, not as piquant as preferred for Southern American tastes. The sauce they use now is perfect for shrimp, less compelling on barbacoa.
They have had to fill out the menu with California staples like quesadillas, nachos, and burritos. This restaurant at its heart is a real taqueria. If you want California or Tex Mex, there are better options.
For me, I cannot wait to go back.

This place is the best, and they’re pros at take-out. I can’t really speak to dine-in as I’ve only done that once. My personal favorite is the chorizo burrito. I also really enjoy the queso, the pupusas, and the tamales. This restaurant is an amazing addition to the neighborhood.
