Fonda Tobala

THE BEST TORTAS AROUND! Everything we’ve had heat has knocked it outta the park. Legit not one bad thing on the menu. Each dish has that sazón that a good Mexican restaurant needs. Absolutely amazing service by the owners. Rosemallows it’s self is meh… but it’s totally worth walking in just for these tortas ahogandas. Will def go again

Fonda Tobala is an eatery within Rosemallows Bar. I order the King Oyster Mushroom: a very tasty Vegan option; King Oyster Mushrooms fill the bread and tomato sauce, all of which I slice then eat spoonful after spoonful. The pickled onions are good alone though taste good with every spoonful. I like having the spicy sauce on the side because I only use about 4/5 of the spicy sauce serving in the meal which I taste as enough additional flavor. I find the lime smooths the spikiness (points of flavors that might be a bit stronger) of the meal with a very mild sweetness and bitterness. In addition, Rosemallows Bar has a chill-retro-island-vibes interior and a good pool table (with good equipment too). In my experience, the employees provide good customer service.

Food is delicious

Some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. Run, don’t walk.

Service is fantastic and food is amazing. This is what happens when you have a world renowned Chef in charge of a small kitchen. Definitely a hidden gem in the heart of Long Beach. Vegetarian options: Hibiscus Tinga tacos! Ask for it
