    Fish taco's delicious mango salsa
    Mark T.

    Was confused by the Mexican Italian Bugers listing but was recommended by the inn we were staying at. Four of us dined. One ordered the Fish Tacos. 2 ordered the Chicken Burritos and I had the day's special, Pozole and added a chicken tamale. We were given complimentary chips and yummy salsa. Each item is reviewed by their respective orderer. The fish tacos were delicious with the mango salsa being the star. The beans and rice were very good. The chicken burritos both diners said exactly the same thing. The were very delicious.... For a bean and rice burrito. Both were very lacking in the meat department. I saw both and agree. Very little chicken by ANY standard. I also tasted it and agree... it had a great taste. My order, Pozole and a tamale. The tamale was ok. Chicken was a bit dry but it was ok. The Pozole though... outstanding. Hominy was the proper tenderness, not mushy but soft, chicken was delicious, fresh radish slices, cilantro and onion, lime wedge and the broth... this was fantastic and I would not hesitate to get this again. The service was good and the ambiance was typical of a family Mexican restaurant. We would all return.

    Enchiladas

    We left so satisfied. The food was well plated, it looked amazing just like it tasted amazing. I had the Chelle Relleno with Carne Asada and a blacked salmon taco. I also ordered a chicken pozolle cup of soup. How cow it was unexpectedly delicious! This side of the road restaurant was a life saver. We were hungry and it was the only place open. I thought we would have to eat gas station food ugh. Best Mexican food I've had in a very very long time. It's a small family restaurant and the service was warm and attentive. I will be back one day!

    Camarones al Mojo de Ajo*

    Note that La Fonda IS OPEN during Covid for TAKEOUT and DINE IN. They have limited outdoor seating as well. My family and I were staying in Winthrop for a quick getaway and decided to order takeout from here. We placed our order via phone and were told that they'd have our food ready in 25 minutes. We ordered the: shrimp fajita burrito, Camarones de ajo (garlic shrimp), chicken fajitas, and the tamales tradicionales. Our food was ready when we arrived. The hostess was wearing a mask too. I'm not sure if people were eating inside, but there were two groups sitting outside on the patio. My shrimp fajita burrito was HUGE and probably weighed at least 2lbs! I could only eat half and had to share the rest with my family. It had beans, rice, shrimp, lettuce, guacamole, and sour cream. I can't say it was the best burrito I've ever had, but it sure was filling! My mom's camarones de ajo has the same ingredients as my burrito (minus the large tortilla of course), but was much spicier than mine. Like me, she couldn't finish it all and so we shared it as a family. The other two dishes were good too, but nothing out of the ordinary. Overall: 4/5 for food, 5/5 for service

    I don't remember but it was good

    Food was surpassingly good! I had lower expectations being a small joint in a small town, but food was amazing and decent portion size!!

    I love this place. We come here to eat at least twice while we stay at a Winthrop hotel every year. My boys love their beef taco, Chile relleno, enchiladas and I love their shrimp fajitas and garlic butter wine sauce shrimp plate. You won't regret it.

    I make it over to Twisp very seldom. Every time I eat here it's the best Mexican food since the last time I was here.

    The soup is the best and probably the most overlooked item. I don't know what they put in it to make it so good.

    Excellent find on our way out of Winthrop. Most of Twisp Works was closed (weekday right around…read morenoon), but Lal's Fork food truck serving Sri Lankan street food was just getting started in their parking lot. Smelled good. Menu looked good. Great impromptu lunch! They offer curry & basmati rice plates, and you can choose whether you want 1, 2, 3, or 4 curries. We shared a 3 curry plate and selected mushroom, dahl, and mango (they had a selection of meaty curries as well). Food came out promptly, and we enjoyed it at one of several picnic tables under a large tree canopy which offered protection from the rain this day, but would be equally good for providing shade on a sunnier occasion. Each curry was so flavorful, it was hard to choose a favorite. Even between the two of us we probably consumed a little more than half and took the rest with us. It was just as delicious later on. And the hot sauce accompanying it was really spicy and tasty, too. Lots of teens showed up as we were finishing our meal, so this must be a popular high school lunch spot as well. Lal's Fork was such a happy and unexpected discovery!

    I wasn't expecting to encounter a Sri Lankan food truck in Twisp, but what do you know? There it…read morewas, parked on-site at Twisp Works (also worth checking out). If you aren't familiar with the cuisine, Sri Lanka is a South Asian island country in the Indian Ocean that is a neighbor to India. While it is not part of India, I would describe the food as having many similarities, while being its own distinct cuisine. For example, we had vegetarian samosa at Fork, and while many of the elements were similar, the taste was different (spices, some ingredients). The curries were also distinctive, including a fruit curry (mango). The most unique dish appears to be a classic Sri Lankan item called kottu roti, which was chopped roti bread mixed and stir fried with vegetables and meat (or just veggies). This was my personal favorite, though the spouse was pretty into the samosas and the mango curry, despite "not liking mango." It was super hot that day, but luckily the picnic tables have tree cover for eating. Judging by the weekday crowd of workers on lunch, Fork seems like a hit with the locals, and it's easy to see why. This would be food hard to come by in some U.S. cities let alone a pretty rural area of the Pacific NW. Check it out if you are visiting or live nearby!
