First of all, just so you know I am the worst seafood critic I know...Believe me, I know my seafood. I've been in Chicago for 10 years, and I finally found a place where I love the seafood....Not like...LOVE! Their seafood is 100% delicious. I had the opportunity to try not only one but 5 different of their seafood entrees and to this day I can't choose my favorite. I also, love their desserts, again I can't choose my favorite, but the one I'm having a hard time forgetting is their Pay de Chocolate y Nuez...it's soo good!!! Enough about food, the place is wonderful, so cozy, warm and at the same time hip. Love the fact that it's an open kitchen, that way I know it's safe food to eat. I think it's great that it's a BYOB, it makes it more economical. The service is the best I've ever had...at the end of the dinner, you feel as if the waiter is part of your dinner table, and they plant you this seed and curiousity to want to come back 100 times more. Also, had the opportunity to meet the Chef and the Owner, and they are wonderful people, hardworkers who strive to provide the best restaurant they can. I seriously recommend this awesome FONDA DEL MAR!
Pros: BEST MEXICAN SEAFOOD & SUPER FRIENDLY SERVICE
Cons: IT'S ONLY ONE RESTAURANT, THEY SHOULD OPEN MORE!
