Reviews for Fonda Mexican Flinders
Dong Nghi To Thuc
A popular spot for office workers at lunchtime and for groups of friends or colleagues in the evening. The menu features the typical dishes you’d expect from a Mexican restaurant, along with a good selection of drinks. Service is impressively quick given the number of guests during lunch hours, but booking in advance is highly recommended; otherwise, you may face a long wait before being seated.

Their lamb taco tastes the closest to the ones I had in Mexico. I've been looking for lamb tacos for many years and tried from many places and I can say theirs is the best! And, the fish taco has the sauce that goes really well with the fried fish. Their chicken burrito is also highly recommended. I finished the lamb taco literally in a minute and had to immediately order another one lol.

Had dinner at Fonda Flinders Street last night and everything was spot on. Service was friendly and the food came out quickly. The tacos were excellent – especially the Baja Snapper, Crispy Prawn, and Grilled Chicken. The Lamb Shoulder Quesadilla and the new Slow Cooked Beef Birria were packed with flavour, and the Tasmanian Lamb Burrito was another highlight. We also really enjoyed the Jalapeno Cheese Bites and the Smoky Mac & Cheese Croquettes. Great experience overall – we’ll definitely be coming back.

Excellent service but the food is not great. You’re better off visiting a fast food Mexican place and paying less. FOOD The crispy prawn tacos and watermelon & lime drink were nice! Main issue is that the food is quite cold. First visit I thought that was because I ordered a burrito bowl, but the second time even the tacos were served cold! Most of the food was a bit bland as well. Mac and cheese croquettes had no cheese flavour, but they had a good texture. Chips were okay. Soda wasn’t too sweet. SERVICE Fantastic service. First time I called to book an hour in advance for 3 as they didn't have any free tables on their website, and they reserved a table for us. Second time booked ahead for a table of 10+ for a work gathering. When we had a couple of no shows they were very understanding! I'd recommend ordering at the counter over the QR code as I've had issues with it.

Food was generally good but my fave was definitely the prawn taco. Very nicely seasoned, and well complemented by the pineapple salsa. The mushroom taco was a bit too oily, so the taco ends up becoming quite soggy.
