We had not been here for a while and decided to stop in. The food was absolutely fantastic. Authentic, fresh, and delicious, served with generous portions. We had the chile relleno and the taquitos. The service was prompt, attentive and very friendly. We look forward to coming back more often.

This restaurant is as good as it gets. When we visit Salem from Southern California we stop here for the best Mexican food in Salem. I grew up here in Salem until I was 19 and then left to serve in the military. I stayed in Southern California after my service. But I come back every year multiple times to visit my parents and family. I’ve had some of the best Mexican Food in Los Angeles and San Diego and Fontana and Santa Ana. And La Fondita is right up there and even surpasses some of those places. Always good customer services, the prices are reasonable for the quality and amount of food that is given. Keep up the great work.

Found out about this place from tik tok. Came here yesterday food and service was really good. I just moved here from Texas and I haven’t had super good authentic Mexican food in years! They serve you a BIG plate. I definitely couldn’t finish it, but I am definitely coming back.

Been coming here for many years. They have authentic Mexican food. I highly recommend anything with red mole sauce (enchiladas, wet burrito, chicken). They serve delicious micheladas too.

Food is amazing, atmosphere is like you’re at a friend’s house. Great and friendly service. My new favorite place to eat when I’m in Salem, hands down! Do not pass this place over!

A little hard to find (at least at night!) this little restaurant is pleasant with good prices. I’ve had better but not in Salem - and I’ve tried several. I had the chicken enchiladas verdes which was tasty and the perfect proportion.

Misjudged this place from the outside. Hole in the wall. Spectacular service. Food is so damn good. Tranquil, with music and TV. Inside and outside seating - full bar. Lady that helped was super nice, and offered me this spicy sauce with my enchiladas - it was to die for!
