Amanda's Fonda

The first time I went to the Academy Avenue Boulevard location the food was good but the service was really slow, as they were new at this location.
The second visit everything was perfect.

Incredible food, service, and entertainment. Wait staff puts forth monster effort, and it shows. Ate there three straight nights on my last visit to Colorado Springs. Amanda, the owner, treated us like family.

It's surprisingly very busy, so be prepared to wait.

Our hostess, however, was rude. No hello, no smile, got menus and literally threw them on the table when she sat us.

Food came out very fast. While my husband enjoyed his, mine wasn't too great. I hated the beef sauce. Their salsa is fantastic though.
