Fonda East Village Now Open

Roberto Santibanez, the man behind Park Slope's Fonda, opened a Fonda outpost in the East Village and hopes to get the same neighborhood vibe as the Brooklyn locale.

Originally slated for a February 21st open date, Fonda opened for dinner yesterday.  Brunch plans are in the near future.

Fonda Crosses the Border: Opening New Location in the East Village

Fonda is a 3-year-old Mexican restaurant serving some of the better cuisine of its type to Park Slope residence.  Roberto Santibañez will now take that template to the East Village.  Set to open February 21st at 40 Avenue B (btwn 3rd and 4th),  the menu will be geared more towards a late night crowd; heavy on the bar food and Mezcal options. 

The East Village is becoming quite the Mexican food mecca.
