Latin American Restaurants near Chamblee

“I LOVE this place. Staff is always smiling and friendly. You get a little piece of Cuba (and Colombia!) every time you go with the experience of the atmosphere and food. Food is delicious and affordable. I'm not a pork eater and there are a few very good vegetarian options like the veggie plate and veggie sandwich. I get my son the side of black beans and rice which he loves. Mango juice is delicious and so are the empanadas and desserts!Vegetarian options: Veggie plate (like the ropa vieja but without meat, and beans and onions and green pepper instead). Veggie sandwich that is delicious, it's like a panini.Kid-friendliness: Booths and chairs. 2 high chairs.“

“Stopped in briefly for a margarita & tacos! Sat at the bar, service was quick & the carne asada tacos were very tasty! I’d definitely go back when I’m in that area of town. It’s a very large venue I believe they have live concerts & there was a live DJ that afternoon and the place has lots of pool tables as well.“

“First time here and everything was just AMAZING!! The food!!! So tasty!! Everything we got was delicious and arrived to our table super fast! The drinks were good and strong. The service was impeccable…our waitress Isa was so sweet and attentive. Definitely will be coming back…this may be my new fave midtown spot!“

“Wow just wow, food so flavorful I had to write a review. I got the beef & chicken fajitas and man I was happy with my decision. Marinated meat on a hot skillet complimented with super tasty beans and brown rice. Shrimp burrito was also a 10/10. Hours of operation are great too open late night. Delicious Horchata drink as well. Big fan of Mexican food and this place certainly does not disappoint. Friendly staff always with a smiling face. Will be back to try more menu items.“

“Visited during lunch hour right before 3pm. Service was very slow for a mostly empty restaurant on a weekday. Both of us got the grouper meal, which was good quality fish. Might have been a tad overpriced but overall satisfactory meal and would go back if in the area. Octopus did not have much flavor but was cooked correctly.“

“The food here is delicious. I was impressed with the variety and quality of multiple different styles of meat. The toppings were fresh and the service was super friendly allowing us to taste all the meats before we picked one for our bowl. Highly recommend.“

“The woman/ young lady working on the night of 3/24/24 was very engaging and welcoming. She took care of me and my guest. Making it extra special for one of my guest birthday celebration! Excellent service, attentiveness, and energy throughout the entire night! We definitely appreciate your vibe and conversation in between working and checking on our needs.“

“I liked La Fonda - it's casual, you can sit outside, the staff are friendly, and the food is decent! We got the paella Del Mar and either the chuletas or bistec a la parilla to split. The meat was a little tough but otherwise everything tasted good. I got the house margarita too and enjoyed it!“

“Amazing food and great music, found it during my road trip back home and definitely didn't disappoint. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for good authentic Guatemalan food. To do estuvo estupendo me encanto todo la comida y buena música. Se lo recomiendo a todos lo que buscan comida auténtica Guatemalteca“

“They have Guatemalan chicken or pork tamales and I enjoyed each time. Their portion is different from Mexican Tamales based on size, ingredients, and preparation. Ordered: 3 chicken tamales and a chicken burrito to-go. Usually weekends busier than weekdays. Ownership has changed in the last few years and still food is good.Parking: Handicap parking and free parking available. Everytime I come through, it’s not crowded so parking is available.Kid-friendliness: Kids chatting, playing, and watching tv.“

“My partner and I work as chefs in NC and came down to atl for a vacation. This place is so good we haven’t even left yet and have agreed to take the 4 hour drive back here again just to eat! The empanadas melt in your mouth, the prawn are insanely good and fresh, and the confit lamb tacos are so perfectly balanced with the flavors of the toppings. Not to mention the cocktails were amazing. We were lucky to be squeezed in without a reservation, our server was Shelby, who was anlso clearly running the bar and she absolutely KILLED it. For someone doing that much work she was amazingly attentive and personable. 10/10 service from Shelby, 10/10 food. Will be back for more no matter how long the drive is!“

“Visited around 8pm on a Wednesday. Service was quick and the staff were kind and had helpful recommendations. The food was great, try out the burrito bowl and beef barbacoa burrito and blackberry fresca. The only issue was the rice was a little undercooked but it wasn’t a huge dealbreaker. Will definitely return, probably earlier in the day when the food is fresher.“

“Every bar tender and cashier is super personable. THE BEST AND STRONGEST PIÑA COLADAS IN THE DANG CITY! They have an additcing guava y queso pastellito. ??? and Chefs if you are seeing this review, i need to know what that creamy garlic sauce is, that comes with the maduros. I appreciate yall!“

“The food we ordered was very good and portion sizes are big, so come with an appetite. Service was friendly too.Unfortunately, the bread that we got after sitting down was a couple days old. It was hard at the bottom and the taste was quite a bit off. Not sure how many tables it had see before it came to ours. Recommendation to the restaurant to either only serve the bread fresh or not at all. Given the big portions and quick service, its in fact not needed.Other than that we enjoyed our visit.“

“Very nice quiet spot to get a quick lunch bite. While I'm waiting for my seat covers to be installed came to grab a bite. Lunch stew chicken rice n beans plantain and a salad . This was good for lunch also comes a drink . It's also a really good price 13 bucks for the lunch and you're full.“

“Very good fried rice, would recommend. The Lamb Papa Rellena was a little burned, and the Lamb doesn’t really go with the dish. The fried rice had a pretty big portion, which is worth the price. The Huancaina sauce is perfect. Overall, the restaurant is really good, almost authentic to a restaurant from Peru.Kid-friendliness: It doesn’t show on the menu.“

“Food was very good, and service was very attentive, but got a pretty bad case of sticker shock for a pretty standard (albeit kosher) menu. Prices were high, and a 20% service fee on top made me less likely to choose the restaurant in the future. If the service fee is automatic, then why not just raise your prices another 20% and advertise that your restaurant is no tipping and that you pay your employees a living wage? I think our total check was north of $100 for 3 to have a relatively light dinner with one shared appetizer. The food is very good quality and the service is very good as well, but the value is not there for a very standard fast casual Latin menu.Dietary restrictions: 100% Kosher menuKid-friendliness: Lots of families dining when we were there.“

“We used to go to Calle Latina when they were on the Square in Decatur, but this space is something special. We went on a Friday night and one of the best jazz bands I've heard in Atlanta played while we had the most scrumptious meal in a fun, lively atmosphere with the most outstanding service. Everyone who works here is welcoming and kind and on top of their game. The peach margarita was insanely delicious and refreshing. I'm not a fan of drinks where you can barely taste the flavor other than alcohol, and this one was perfection. The appetizers were so tasty, and everyone was super pleased with their meals. And I really love that the portion sizes aren't insane. The restaurant is way more focused on serving quality food with fresh ingredients - it's not about massive portion sizes (although we were definitely full when we left). I am so excited because we can walk to this neighborhood gem (which has an awesome bar, by the way). And we will definitely be going on Friday nights to listen to the fabulous jazz band, have some drinks and a lovely meal.“

“I was super impressed with the atmosphere, we were consistently checked on, we went for drinks and to listen to the live band! Overall.. so beautiful to see everyone vibing! Great drinks, incredible music..! Staff was very sweet and professional! I'm going back next weekend!“

“My first time visiting and I ordered online. Long story short, I completely messed up my online order and when I went to pick up it, they so graciously offered to fix my mistake without issue. I told them it was ok because it was my fault but they insisted. Their customer service is beyond incredible! Not only that, but the food was ah-mazing!! I loved everything I got and even saved some to bring home for dinner because the portions were a great size. Thank you so much to the amazing staff there! I’ll definitely keep coming back!“

“At least in my island of Puerto Rico a “fonda” is a small informal restaurant. That is this place, a cozy nice place with superb service. The environment is important, nice soft Latino music and friendliness. Probably they are overreaching in the menu. The “tostones” were good. The chicken soup was perfect. But the main diches were completely off. The Cuban dish did not tasted Cuban at all. The carnitas did not taste as carnitas.The only rating I give to places is if I would go back to the place and I would go back to this one, provided that they improve the main dishes or center on one type of cuisine and do it great. They have great potential.“

“I recently ordered Mojarra Frita to go from a Salvadorian restaurant, and it was a delightful experience. The crispy fried fish was perfectly seasoned, and the golden exterior gave a satisfying crunch with every bite. The dish was served with a side of fresh salsa and tangy pickled vegetables, adding a burst of flavor to complement the fish. The portion size was generous, making it a great value for the price. Overall, Mojarra Frita is a must-try for anyone looking to savor authentic Salvadorian cuisine, and this takeout version did not disappoint.“

“The food was delicious, the staff friendly, almost everything perfect. One problem I saw is that it took a while to arrive even though the restaurant was empty. The other problem I saw is that the bathrooms were somewhat ugly. But other than this the restaurant is perfect, the truth is it deserves more recognition ?Parking: There was a lot of space“
