La Fonda De Juango - Mauldin

So some good some not so good. The empenadas are absolutely fabulous, some of the best we've ever had. Crispy on the outside and juicy and flavorful on the inside. Sauces were average. They didn't have my first two choices (Lengua criolo nor seafood casserole , which was disappointing. I decided on the chicken and rice. Not my favorite. It was dry and had very little chicken in it. It also had a lot of peas and I don't like peas. Large serving though. My DH had the regular plate, he loved it and what I tried of it was good. They charge $2.95 for a bottle of water. The Guava juice was really tasty. The service was a little slow and disorganized but the waiter, it was only his second day in the USA and his first evening serving. I think he did a great job especially since it was just him. I think he's going to be really good once he gets some practice : We are definitely going to go back just for the empenadsas alone. I won't get the chicken and rice again, and I hope they have everything on the menu next time.

SUPER YUMMMMMM the food was fresh and delicious everything from the empanada appetizer to the main courses to the jugo de maracuyá. My mom and I enjoyed it very much. Cant wait to take my husband! The waitress said they will take reservations for groups it’s recommended for peak times.

(Translated by Google) I give them 5 stars for the flavor but wow old Juango with that incredible heat today 12-16-21 nobody eats him at ease in his establishment. I'm leaving happy but at the same time sad because I couldn't eat that recipe of yours ...... and the worst thing you have is that rude veneca(Original)Les doy 5 estrellas del sabor pero wow viejo Juango con ese calor de hoy 12-16-21 increíble nadie le come a gusto en su establecimiento. Me voy contento pero a la vez triste porque no pude comer esa receta suya...... y lo peor que tenez es esa veneca grosera

I 'm giving this place 5 stars. The food and service were excellent. It 's Colombian food typical of the mountains. My typical plate was a steak, an egg, a sausage, pork belly w cracklings, rice and beans, a corn cake, and a fried plantain. So flavorful. Not spicy. They have a hot sauce you can add, but Colombian food isn 't spicy. The waitress was a delight, and the price was great $40 for two lunches, some starters, canned sodas, and a good tip. We will definitely be back. The Arepa con queso was ridiculously good (sweet corn cake with soft cheese on top).
