I love this place!

by bubbsmom at Citysearch

I absolutely LOVE Amanda's Fonda! My husband, son, and I dine there on a regular basis! The staff is always friendly and greets us with a smile at the door. They have the best chips and salsa in town and don't even get me going on how great the margaritas are! We have to be careful not have too much of either one before our food arrives! The food is tasty and not super hot spicy- the portions are HUGE - even my teenage son walks away with a full stomach! If you haven't tried their Pollo Boracho or Carne Asada it is definitely worth the trip for either of those. The menu is fun and there is a great selection to chose from - we haven't tried everything on the menu yet but have had many of the items and not one time have we been disappointed. And the staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu - and the buenuelos for dessert - one word - YUM! It is a warm atmosphere, feels like home, and when you look around you can see that everyone is really enjoying their meals and having a great time - GO CHECK IT OUT!!!!!

  • Pros: Best Patio in Town!
  • Cons: Place is packed on weekends!

Hmmm nothing good to say

by rgood25 at Citysearch

I was at Amanda's Fonda (woo hoo) today and the service was so-so.... I saw Amandita (not the real amanda who made the place what it is) her daughter who looks like she just got out of a low rider with hydrolics (wait she did). When you see her with her giant sunglasses on it is because she is trying to hide her giant hangover she got from drinking at her bar. Drinks that she does not pay for. In addition today I saw her being rude to one of her employees. I can't believe a restaurant with such a following has been left in the hands of a 26 year old thug. Where is her father??????? Who owns this place????

  • Pros: good location and a creek
  • Cons: poor service, owner treats employees badly
