12 Best Latin American Restaurants near Fontana

“The food is very authentic, down right to the drinks (banana flavored soda being one of them). The food is prepared right on the spot so not a place I'd recommend for a half hour lunch but definitely one I'd see myself coming again if I have a craving. The baleadas are top notch and so are the enchiladas (different from Mexican)“

“I went for a quick lunch and got the 2 piece combo plus mini churros for dessert. I wasn't too thrilled paying 20 dollars for a meal that didn't fill me up. Cole slaw is such a easy side to make but most places mess it up except for this place. It's probably the only restaurant that knows how to make good Cole slaw that I've been to out here. The chicken was excellent and the churros were perfect. My only complaint was the price but maybe this is the new norm.“

“I ordered pick up today and I was blown away by how delicious all our food was! Thank you so much mucho gusto Peruvian restaurant for our amazing dinner!“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Palenque Mexican Restaurant! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was excellent.
A special thank you to Christian, who went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. He was friendly, attentive, professional, and genuinely made the experience feel special. It’s clear that he takes pride in his work and truly cares about his guests.
Christian was definitely a highlight of our visit. I would absolutely recommend Palenque to anyone looking for great Mexican food and wonderful service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“You can never go wrong with fresh, hand made to order pupusas. They are always worth the wait, and with so many options you can try something new every visit. Make sure to order a couple extra to eat with a fried egg and some of that delicious salsa the next morning. So good!“

“This place is always packed, so bring your patience—you’re almost certainly going to have to wait a while... but it’s definitely worth it! 😅
From the moment you walk in, you can feel a distinctly Latin vibe—super lively and welcoming.
The staff is very friendly and can assist you in both Spanish and English, so you feel comfortable right from the start.
The music is a little loud—I won't lie to you—but it’s a varied mix that adds great energy to the place.
It’s not really the spot for a quiet dinner; it’s more for going out with friends, chatting, and having a good time.
They have plenty of alcoholic drink options, so there’s lots to choose from if you want to pair your meal with something tasty. And speaking of food, the dishes are Mexican-inspired but feature a more contemporary touch in their presentation.
Admittedly, it is a bit pricey, but the quality of the food makes it well worth it.
It’s definitely one of those places you go to for the atmosphere, the food, and the complete experience. 👌“

“100% calidad la recomiendo vayan ya que esperan“

“My family and I have been here on several occasions every time the food has been phenomenal. Well plated, good quality and fresh. The service was attentive and polite, we even had the manager come check on us. The ambience is exceptional and perfect for special occasions ( we took my mom for her bday she was super happy) after dinner we went to the rooftop and listened to music and had a couple of well made drinks. It’s a fun place to hang out and was a perfect ending to the night. Highly recommend for a nice night out. One thing I will say is Definitely make a reservation!“
