Guestbook & Reviews

Customer Reviews

Our family LOVES Tata's Fonda! The food is consistently delicious, the portions are huge and the "specials" that they make once in a while are always fantastic. The food smells amazing before you even get to dig in and it's always comforting, you can feel the love and care in every dish. The restaurant is always very clean and inviting, the staff are always really kind and answer any questions you have and it's overall a great atmosphere. Our go-to order usually includes pernil/pork shoulder, yellow rice, potato salad, sweet plantains, beef empanadillas, mofongo and fried pork. We also love the roast chicken, meatballs and bbq ribs. The portions are always large enough for us to share or have a second meal, and it's some of the best Puerto Rican food we get in the area (we moved from Gardner recently and drive to still get it for dinner all the time)

Im 34 years old and eaten many empanadas in my life. Well today I just had the best one I've ever had. The Spanish rice is unreal. The owners are extremely welcoming and nice. Talk about authentic real food with kind welcoming people. I will be back very very soon. Also very reasonable prices. Im so happy I discovered this place.

What a gem! The rice, yuca, plantain, beans and pork shoulder were great, can't wait to try the empanadas and desserts! So glad to have such nourishing food nearby.

Okay so, at first I wasn't so sure about coming here since it's kind of like a food truck and I have a very sensitive stomach, but this is the best Spanish food I have ever had my entire existence and this isn't exaggerating. I promise it taste like homemade food by your grandmother. The BBG ribs were delicious with the yellow rice. I also got these beefy cheesy fries and they are good as well. They have the sweetest most satisfying plantains. Oh also their portion of food was a lot. They have a outside sitting area with a sun blocking tent thing which is great. They are also dog friendly!!! I 100% recommend.
