    Shawn and Mike, thank you for making my boyfriend and I’s first experience at Alma Fonda wonderful. Mike was very attentive and very informed about the menu. We were blown away by how much flavor each dish had, portions were most definitely perfect for sharing. We LOVED the halibut and the scallops and couldn’t stop talking about the food after we left. Shawn, thank you for being so kind and remembering that I called ahead to take care of the drinks for my table. Thank you again, you will see us again soon and I have already recommended you guys to a few of my friends!

    I am Mexican, from Jalisco and Michoacán. 100% de Agave has a wonderful menu that satisfies both the Tex-Mex, Mexican American fans, alongside those of us who prefer a menu that reminds of us our mama’s home cooking. Top notch happy hour and service, plus an under-rated brunch.
