Fonda Don Chon is an authentic Mexican restaurant located in Shopper Ln. In Covina near the…read moredowntown. Parking lot across the restaurant. You can park in the additional parking spots all around Shopper Ln. I have been a customer for many years and tried many delicious dishes. They serve a traditional Mexican open buffet at certain times. The waiting line is expected, but don't feel discouraged because it moves fast. The decor is vibrant enriched with colorful murals. The staff are very welcoming and genuinely warm. The restaurant has cozy and inviting ambience. Outdoor and indoor seating are available. I placed an online order for pickup. It was fast and convenient since I had friends coming for dinner. I ordered the following: - Burrito Panchon 5/5 Stuffed with carnita, beans and rice, served with cream, beans and guacamole. Huge portion! You can choose your protein. - Fajitas Cielo Mar Y Tierra 5/5 Marinated beef, shrimp, chicken. It served with sauteed bell peppers tomatoes and onions, rice, guacamole, beans and pico de gallo. It was smoky, savory and flavorful. - Vegetarian Enchiladas 5/5 Corn tortillas stuffed with bell pepper, corn, onion, carrot, cilantro, squash, and topped with a combination of cream and jack cheese. The portion was enormous. It was a very flavorful and savory. - Carna Asada 5/5 Flap meat marinated with homemade adobo. It served with pico de gallo, rice & guacamole. The meat was juicy and tender. It was such a delicious dish. - Empanadas 5/5 I chose chicken empanadas. It served with salad. The empanadas was crispy from outside and very flavorful. - Ensalada de Nopales 5/5 Diced cactus mixed with tomatoes, onion, lime, and cilantro. - Taquitos 5/5 It was crispy from outside with savory and juicy filling. - Taco de Cameron , taco de Pescado & taco de Birria 5/5 They were savory, juicy and delicious. - Beans 5/5 Topped with melted cheese, really delicious - Large Bionico Bowl 5/5 Fresh fruits like topped strawberries, mango, cantaloupe, banana, papaya, blueberries, apples, pineapple topped with granola and shaved coconut. It was rich, creamy. The fruits were fresh and sweet. It was heavenly! Every box was wrapped with layers of plastic wrap perfectly. I got a bag full of different types of salsa with my order and another bag with tortilla chips. The food portions were very generous. Every dish reflected authenticity and deliciousness. Fonda Don Chon has high quality, flavorful and delicious food. It is my FAVORITE MEXICAN RESTAURANT.

I'm sorry, but I wanted to like this place. Let's start with…read morethe drink. -Cafe De Olla. I don't know, I've had it at quite a few places. Even made it myself. Just wasn't a fan of theirs. Now the food.... I had the Chon's Breakfast Comal. The chorizo was ok. Lacked quite a bit of flavor. Potatoes tasted kinda like they were boiled and then finished in a sauce, then plated. The bell peppers and onions were fantastic. A lot. But they were cooked well. Over easy eggs were decent, despite one of them being cooked all the way through. Comal was perfect temperature. But insanely greasy (which is expected from chorizo). Rice. Eh... Rice is rice. Wasn't bad. But was all "Oh my goodness this is amazing." Beans tasted like the refried Rosarita's can. Just topped with cheese. The salsa. It was pretty good. The 1st time. Until I found a hair. Then I was given a 2nd one. And when I decided to eat it, it was no good. It was starting to spoil. I realized this once I put it on a bite I was about to take and immediately put it in my food i was about to chew in my napkin. After about 15 minutes when my server finally came by, I told her of the situation. She said "I'll go check." Then disappeared. Someone else gave me the check, and then someone else brought the receipt. The initial server didn't pop up until I was getting up to walk out. So no manager interaction. No "we'll comp your coffee." Just a "Sorry you didn't like it." As I walked out. Ambiance is cool, but some table placement doesn't make sense. That needs to be addressed. Will I come back here? I don't know. Maybe. Maybe not. But I'm talking like 80 no /20 yea. So I guess we'll see.. So I'm giving this place 1 star. I'm sorry, but this is my opinion based on my 1st experience here. Maybe it'll be better. We'll see....

It was also nice and quiet, with the music at the perfect volume, not like some restaurants where it's so loud you can barely have a conversation. We were seated in less than two minutes, and the staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. The food was delicious. I ordered the Elegant Butter Chicken and asked for it mild. It ended up being a little spicier than I expected, but it was packed with flavor. One thing to note is that everything is ordered separately. The butter chicken (around $22) came in a medium-sized bowl, and the plain Fragrant Basmati Rice (about $8) was a separate order. For my drink, I had a Moscow Mule. Instead of the traditional copper mug, it was served in a martini glass with a dried fruit garnish, which was a nice presentation. It tasted great as well. The only downside for me was the price. Our bill for two people came to about $148 before tip, which felt a bit expensive for what we ordered. Overall, I would definitely recommend giving this restaurant a try, especially if you're looking for a nice date night or don't mind splurging a little for a quality meal and a pleasant atmosphere.

The staff were so friendly and helpful with recommendations even though I'm a creature of habit. They were really fast with our order and it was a chill spot no rush to eat and leave. The TV was on with the game on and it was awesome. On to the food. The chicken shawarma is amazing, seasoned perfectly not overly salty and makes you want to keep eating. I also had the chicken kabob plate with spicy hummus and stuffed grape leaves. Omg the rice in The grape leaves were not mushy but perfectly cooked. The spicy hummus had a good balance of chick peas and tahini ... not overly sesame flavored but a hint of nuttiness. The chicken shawarma fries is such a hidden gem of alternative to their rice pilaf which in itself soooo tasty. I honestly can say I want to eat till I'm over stuffed because the food is sooo good

We ordered a variety of dishes to share, including sushi rolls, specialty rolls, spicy garlic edamame, grilled salmon, chicken katsu, teriyaki chicken, calamari, salad, rice, and miso soup. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The salmon was tender and cooked perfectly, while the chicken katsu was crispy on the outside and juicy inside. Kid approved!! Sauces on the side please! The sushi rolls were generously sized and loaded with fresh ingredients. The spicy garlic edamame was one of my favorites! It had plenty of garlicky and chile flavor with a nice kick of spice and was hard to stop eating. The portions throughout the meal were generous, making everything perfect for sharing family-style. The restaurant had a lively but comfortable atmosphere, and the service was friendly and attentive. Our food came out quickly despite ordering quite a bit. We also appreciated the call button at the table it made it convenient to request anything we needed without having to flag someone down. Overall, we left very full and happy! Great food, lots of variety, generous portions, and something for everyone even those who may not eat sushi. We will definitely be returning!!!! Can't believe it was our first time here and we live in the next city over! Lol
