La Fonda El Taquito

Best fried tacos and rice! I feel like I'm home here. The wait staff feel more like family and everyone seems to know each other. It's definitely a neighborhood spot. My friends get the el pastor tacos and after their first bite - it's a head nod, a "uh huh, yep". Enchiladas are great too! I love their homemade chips and sauce, I could literally drink their sauce it's so good, reminds me of my best friend's mom's salsa growing up. I always feel welcome here and love the historic building with what looks like the original wood floors. Great carbonation ratio on their pop (or soda for you non-midwesterners). One of my favorite stops in KC.

We parked in the designated lot, went to the bakery, went to put our bags in the car, and it had been towed, what a disappointment. What a scam please do not patronize a business that has predatory practices

They never answer the phone!! They're mailbox on there phone isn't even set up ! They never have menudo any more !! Unless you miss church as I was told was the only way to get some!! Other patrons heard her say that and said people should not have to make a choice between church and menudo!! Since there is a request for it they should make more for the customers!!!

Nice small family restaurant. Very good and authentic Mexican cuisine. The enchiladas are good and delicious. Made more with real chile for authentic tastes. Good place to go on Saturday evenings as they have live music however I don't know if they play all the time or occasionally. Please try this place. My favorites are fried tacos, sopa de arroz, enchiladas, and menudo. Server was pleasant and attentive.

I love coming here! I love fried tacos and La Fonda hits the spot! I also really love the chips!

We first started coming here in 1992, but never reviewed it, mostly because we moved away in 2002. This is definitely a family run operation, and the food and drinks are solid Tex Mex staples, with one exception. There Chicken Soup is OUTSTANDING. As are there fried tacos. I understand that those who like pork dig the Tamales, carnitas and the Menudo.The Gold Margaritas are good and we still are fans!

Love this place. Fried tacos are awesome and pork chili is spot on. Just pisses me off I can almost never go here because they are closed on M, T, W,

Do not patronize this establishment. My family parked in the designated lot on back. Went to the bakery next door and went to our car to drop off our bags before heading in to the restaurant. MY CAR WAS TOWED! When you talk to the tow lot they literally say they are in cahoots with the restaurant. Seems pretty predatory and scammy

this place is running some kind of scam with their tow service company. We parked in their parking lot and went to the bakery in the same strip of busines. Gone around 15 mins. Went to drop our goodies off in the car before going there to eat only to find our car was missing/towed. We parked there because we planned on eating there but instead my two kids and elderly grandmother were stuck outside in 35 degrees temps trying to find someone to come rescue us. Gonna cost at min $350 to get my car back not to mention all the hoops you have to jump through to get there. This is how they treat their customers before you even get in the door. someone should investigate this as it sure seems like they are getting some kind of kick backs for towing vehicles. when we went to the business there wasn't any other customers except the owner and all his friends sitting at one table. This is a good way to drive out paying customers. My money could have gone to their establishment but instead I'm paying for a tow. If you want to pay the tow company by card you have to get it a notary... the store next door to La Fonda has a sign on the door that they have a notary on site....how convenient. This is a predatory situation. i wouldn't give my money to any business that does business practices like this.

Great authentic Mexican food. Staff so friendly cannot get enough of the salsa, tostados and hard shell tacos. I HIGHLY recommend. I will be back next trip to town.
