Since 2012, Fonda La Catrina has been serving up Mexican comfort food and drink with quality ingredients and lots of love. We are a Mexico City style restaurant and bar located in the heart of the lively and loud Georgetown neighborhood in Seattle. Handmade tortillas, chips, salsas, tacos, braised puerco in salsa verde, tamales, mole de Poblano; all made in house by our talented team in the kitchen. The house made ethos extends to our bar as well. Agave spirits rule with fresh juices, infusions and seasonal fruits that inspire our bar team weekly. We feature Mexican and local beers as well as old world wines to match the vivid flavors of the Mexican cuisine we serve.

    Bartenders are Amazing and well versed. Ambiance is very bright, decor is simple not as colorful or interesting like other Mexican restaraunts but the chef makes up for it with his/her outstanding cullinary skills! Only negative thing is the service. We had to go get our server 3 times to bring us another drink and to order food. If I go back I think I will sit at the bar. I do recommend this place if you want authentic mexican dishes and a delicious spicy cucumber margarita.

    Fonda La Catrina has good food and a good ambiance. A little loud inside but it’s friendly noise.

    What a lovely evening. We stopped by on our way home from the airport. My brother was visiting for His Bday weekend. We ordered the jalapeno margarita & the margarita sampler, chips & guac. He had the chilaquiles, I had the mole enchiladas. So good! Great service! No wait. Great ambience. Very attentive without too many interruptions.

    $20!!! for a Cadillac Margarita, $16!!! for just a house Margarita. The $20 ceviche app was too small and not so tasty. I’m bummed—have really enjoyed this place. Inflation & Shrinkflation off the charts. Very unfortunate.

    Very loud and crowded little restaurant. Luckily we were able to sit outside , where there was more elbow room and a lot quieter. The food wasn’t anything special. Too bad the Margaritas were so expensive, would’ve like to have had one. Enjoyed a reasonable priced beer instead.
