The combination of the cozy environment and the captivating sounds made the experience truly magical.

Now, let’s talk about the food. Exceptional would be an understatement! The menu at Fonda-El Limoncito offers a wide variety of dishes that cater to every palate.

In conclusion, Fonda-El Limoncito is a hidden gem that deserves all the recognition it can get. From the nostalgic ambiance to the exceptional food, every aspect of this place leaves a lasting impression.

This place was beyond my expectations. I was in Monterrey on vacation with my brother and brother-in-law for the weekend. We were looking for authentic regional food. It was so amazing that we ended up going to have breakfast three days in a row. We met our server Pau, she was so accommodating. She understood what we needed after we showed up with electrolytes (lol). She recommended grata plates, as well as Greta mezcal and cerveza carta blanca. All in all, they made us feel so welcomed that we kept going back. Needless to say, I will return to this cozy place, with great food and service, as soon as I return to Monterrey. Thank you Pau, the great singer (I forgot his name, due to the many mexcales 😥), and the most awesome owner. Last but not least, thanks to the chef for the “curado” he gifted us! Don’t hesitate to go, and I hope you run into Pau and her team. ...

The caguama was surprisingly complementary with the dish my...
