Dog friendly, they have a few outdoor tables that can get a bit dusty, but still nice. Burritos: We got a few breakfast burritos with sausage and bacon. These are huge. No one was able to even finish half of one in one sitting. A lady makes the tortillas by hand, and you can watch while you wait. My only gripe with these tasty burritos is the volume of potatoes. Tons, tons of potatoes. Carnitas: We ordered a kilo to take back to the house. Good, extremely tender, but better crisped up in oil to get those tasty bits. Came with tortillas and salsas that were also good. Tacos: Crispy shell carne asada, quite full of meat, and meat all crisped the way I like it. Very tasty tacos. Chilaquiles: Excellent! I am a huge fan of green chilaquiles, and these did not disappoint. Over easy eggs, beans, lots of cheese, sliced onion. Awesome! The bar: Yes, they have a full bar attached. Very good margaritas, super cold beer, very good bloody marys... A round of four drinks was ten dollars. Yes. Ten dollars. This place has an extensive menu, all cash only, so bring dinero. They accept US dollars. Service is very friendly.

A server comes by to take your order shortly after. I thought the tacos were sizable, so I ordered one asada, one chorizo, and a flour quesadilla. Their tortillas are insanely good and so was the cheese. I recommend getting all the toppings in your taco because everything blends together deliciously. It's made to be a quick in-and-out experience. There's only a few tables, so if you come during a rush period, you may have to take those tacos to go. Definitely recommend this spot for your next TJ visit.

Jesse and his staff were friendly and welcoming and mixed up some awesome cocktails for us! I especially loved the "pink pearl" which was one of Jesse's inventions that he suggested when i needed a break from palomas... it was some kind of pink cranberry margarita - whatever it was, it was delicious! This establishment is a unique cross between an american style dive bar and a mexican cantina, with a crowd made up of locals (expats and non) and visitors who were staying nearby. They've got a bumping dance floor with a DJ who knows how to play to the crowd - he had us shaking our booties all night long! There's also a hidden back patio with a lovely ocean view. We'd already eaten in the Valle, so we didn't get to try the food (although they kindly brought us over a plate of mini sandwich slices to share) - putting that on the agenda for our next visit! I hear they even have rooms for rent upstairs at reasonable prices - i think i know where we are staying on our next trip down! Everyone here - staff and patrons alike - were just unbelievably friendly. We had a great time, and I can't wait to come back. Cheers!

One waiter working the whole restaurant. There was a sign out front that said "cash only" which was odd. We followed up and they said we could still pay with a card. We started with drinks which were watered down. Then a Mexican combo plate and fish tacos. The fish tacos was fried halibut, not grilled, topped with just lettuce and a spoonful of guacamole. The Mexican combo was a taco chili relleno and a cheese enchilada. Both came with rice and beans which were bland. The side salad was equally disappointing with a romaine leaf, cucumber tomato and papaya. The blue cheese dressing was from Smart & Final. The only good thing was the Mexican coffee that came with the meal. It's sad to see what La Fonda has become with its history and was once considered the best restaurants in the area.

However, our driver named CLEMENTE, suggested to my spouse we go here, La Cocina de Doña Esthela. It came with a Michelin Star, but that seemed questionable. We went there on the advice of the driver, CLEMENTE. It was decent food and fairly well priced. COST FOR 3, including driver initially $75.00. I chose the 3 ENCHILADA DINNER, as did my partner. OUR DRIVER ORDERED SHEEP!!! As we waited for the car, the waiter came running out looking for us, mumbling something in Spanish. When my partner returned minutes later, he had about $25 in hand in PESOS!!! He said, after that whole thing, they said that they had admitted to OVERCHARGING US!!! So: $50.00

Despite being very busy, we were seated right away, which was a pleasant surprise. The space was a bit warm inside, but the incredible food and overall experience made it completely worth it. I had their famous Hotcakes de Elote (corn pancakes), and they were easily my favorite dish of the meal! They were unique, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I also tried their Machaca con Huevo, which was another standout. Everything we ordered was prepared beautifully and full of flavor. Their homemade tortillas and salsa were the perfect finishing touches and added even more authenticity to the meal. The service was excellent -- our waiter was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. The restaurant itself is spacious and has a wonderful atmosphere. I also noticed the staff singing "Happy Birthday" to guests a couple of times, making it a great spot for a special celebration. I would highly recommend stopping by if you're visiting Valle de Guadalupe. This is definitely a place worth experiencing for the food, hospitality, and unforgettable flavors!

By far with some of the most reasonable prices to the size and portions. I usually start with a tip for the taquero before I order. We indulged in carne asada (6) this time with 1 suadero, 1 cabesa and 1 adobado also known as al pastor The winner most definitely was the carne asada. With the winner, winner being the quesataco asada. They add cilantro, onions, guacamole and your chile of choice. We always opt for the HOTTER option they call the birria chile which is a darker red color. They bring you slices of limes, cucumbers and radishes. Parking is right in front with a security guiding traffic. They are open super late and have two on the main road. We often prefer the one closer to all the night life and action because it's larger.

La Fonda, I'm not coming back!…read more I've been coming to La Fonda for over 20 years. It used to be a truly special place -- full of charm, good food, and atmosphere. Unfortunately, over the years it has steadily gone downhill. These days, I only come out of nostalgia. My visit last night convinced me it's time to stop trying. On a Friday evening the restaurant was nearly empty, the margaritas were watered down and tasteless, the food was bland, and the service was mediocre at best. Prices remain high, but the quality and experience no longer justify them. It's really sad to see what has become of this once-iconic Baja landmark. Sitting at the gateway to the Valle de Guadalupe, one of Mexico's great culinary destinations, you'd think they would take inspiration from what's happening around them. Sadly, they haven't. La Fonda, I'm not coming back.
