I’ve wanted to try La Fonda El Taquito for quite some time, should’ve tried them long ago. What a wonderful local KC gem! Family owned charm and the aroma of authentic homestyle recipes greet you immediately when entering the door of this charming Cantina style restaurant.

I’ve been a patron since I was a kid. The flavor of the food, the staff, atmosphere is everything it’s supposed to be. The best carnitas I’ve ever had!

What a great place this is!!! Just had lunch with my family there as we came for a day visit to Kansas City and the food was amazing, my pickiest eater had 3 tacos !!! That says a lot of a picky 6 year old. The service was the absolute best. If you’re in town please stop by and enjoy their delicious food.

Their fried tacos are the best. The white cheese is such a perfect compliment and I think uniquely KC delicious. The chicken tortilla is top of my list any season of the year. Don’t pass on Joe’s margaritas either. Maria and Gloria are so hospitable. They treat you like family.

Our server ruined the experience, she cared more about standing in the front talking to her coworkers then serving my family of small children. 25 minutes to get a drink after ordering it is kind of long. After our server mixed up our orders and did not bring us the special, the manager said we should of known better. Make sure to explain in detail a simple order so that you don’t get over charged.

Tried this spot yesterday for lunch and it was pretty good. I ordered the fried taco platter and my friend had the same with some chili on the side. It was pretty darn tasty. Nice quiet place with some delicious food. They aren’t able to serve alcohol at the moment but I had a strawberry fanta, it was sooo good. I will for sure be back!

Losing a star because I’d like to see combo meals for a sit down mexican restaurant. Overall the food was really good and had tons of flavor

Great Taco special on Thursday’s. Need to offer a better Happy Hour prices on drinks. Tacos could have been free of a little more cooking oil… Thank you
