Upstairs with a street view! This is the perfect space for casual dining and fun events. The windows open up which creates a Melbourne vibe and good times.

Semi private space, great for seated and standing. Perfect space for Corporate Dinners, Birthdays, Hens Parties and Celebrations.
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.
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.
Service and speed of dishes coming out was good (quiet Monday night) but food quality was quite poor. They used whipped cheese for the nachos, had ‘run out of tuna’ for the ceviche. Also some stupid deal for nachos but only if you order via QR code? For the price and quality you’re better off somewhere else
We recently ordered a lunch pack from Fonda Mexican for 25 people, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was incredibly tasty, fresh, and authentically Mexican! Every single person loved it.The packaging was done exceptionally well, making distribution easy and ensuring everything arrived in perfect condition. A special mention to Adiel, the General Manager, who was absolutely fantastic to deal with. He was extremely patient, understanding, and accommodating, especially with multiple order changes. Adiel kept me constantly updated, offered us a great rate, and made the entire process smooth and stress free. His professionalism and customer service truly stood out! We highly recommend Fonda Mexican to any company or organisation looking to arrange corporate lunches or dinners. Amazing food, excellent service, and a team that genuinely cares. We’ll definitely be ordering again! On behalf of CIEE Melbourne a big thank you to Adiel and his team!
The food here is really good; it's tasty and the portions are big enough. Unfortunately, I went to Fonda in Flinders Lane at 2:57 with some friends, and the customer service from the waiter who speaks Spanish was awful. The other one was lovely and nice, but honestly, this can make a difference in the experience. The food can be amazing, but the service from this particular person made lunchtime upsetting.
