Nice place !! Food so good 🤤🤤🤤😍
I'd probably like the service here higher than usual for Nashville restaurant Nashville is not really known for great service in most places. La Fonda seems to have a team that doesn't have high turnover they're always professional if not always friendly but they're always professional again because 12 South is touristy it's a hit or miss a service on the street try to guacamole. It is well done. They also have great flour and corn tortillas and we like their Taco platters.
Again, our favorite "Mexican" cuisine in Middle TN. They've got it down. The carne asada taco board is the go-to. Fundido with chorizo is an excellent appetizer.
