REALLY good. Our first meal in Montevideo was excellent, with unique flavors perfectly prepared. Eating outside was informal and relaxed. A fine IPA available on draft.

what a wonderful experience! Our server was helpful and kind, and the food was delicious and shockingly great prices! We shared a pasta and a lamb dish. Great atmosphere — def recommend.

Best meal we had in Montevideo! Ingredients were so fresh and offered a unique take on classics like Milanesa (baked, not fried). The ambience was perfect, too!

One of my favorite restaurants in MVD! I’ve been coming here for 7+ years and have never had a mediocre experience. The owner is usually cooking. The service is always friendly. The pastas and breads are homemade and fresh. The menu is small, yet diverse enough to please almost everyone. I highly recommend La Fonda :)

Found this hidden gem in the heart of Montevideo’s old town and loved it! It’s on a gorgeous pedestrian street and the outdoor seating had a wonderful vibe. The indoor area was in a beautiful old building with an open kitchen so you could see the chefs at work. We tried both vegetarian salads and they were delicious and creative with fresh veggies from their garden. The tagliatelle noodles were hand made and were absolutely delicious. You could really tell that chefs love what they do! We would recommend this restaurant to anyone in or passing through Montevideo!

We went for a super late lunch and they accommodated our weird eating time, we’re super patient with our bad Spanish, and we loved both pastas we had. Recommend!

Me and two vegetarian friends had an absolutely fantastic lunch here. The service was friendly and patient with our minimal Spanish. The food was fresh, perfectly portioned, balanced, and local. The vibes were welcoming, easy-going, and helpful. I'd love to go back again soon.

This is an outstanding place with great hospitality and super delicious food! I was welcomed very warmly and got an introduction of the menu: everything is fresh and prepared with a lot of love! The taste was mouthwatering. A pleasure from arriving to the last bite: I will be back! Muchas gracias!

Great staff, great food, a better alternative to the port market and not far from there. Loved the steak and the fresh locally sourced 🥗 salad.
