Fonda Comida Mexicana is a refreshingly different kind of Mexican restaurant. The contemporary decor is chic and urban, and with chef and owner Roberto Santibanez behind this restaurant, every meal here will be a delight. Born in Mexico City and graduated with honors from Paris' prestigious Le Cordon Bleu, Chef Santibanez has a variety of awards to back his international career as chef, culinary consultant, author, and teacher. He founded three highly acclaimed restaurants in Mexico City and worked as executive chef before heading up his own New York City restaurants. At Fonda, you'll find exciting and affordable cuisine which showcases the chef's love of his native dishes. Here, food is prepared with passion; tortillas are always hand-pressed, guacamole is made to order, and margaritas are thoughtfully crafted. Chef Santibanez's version of enchiladas in black mole would impress any Mexican cuisine traditionalist's palates. Open daily for dinner and on the weekends for brunch, this is a delightful dining spot that has won over jaded New York diners, and is sure to please you as well.
