Overview & Highlights

La Fondita China, nestled in the heart of San Antonio at 9804 Roosevelt Ave, offers an inviting gateway into authentic Chinese flavors that delight both the palate and the senses. This charming Chinese restaurant shines with an intimate atmosphere featuring just a handful of cozy tables inside and a quaint patio spot by the takeout window.

The menu at La Fondita China is a testament to the diversity and boldness of Chinese cuisine, with a strong focus on seafood and classic family dinners. For seafood lovers, standout options include the Curry Shrimp and Hunan Shrimp, each bursting with a tantalizing spice that awakens the taste buds with just the right amount of heat. The Shrimp & Cashew Nuts offers a beautiful balance of textures—the crunch of nuts complementing succulent shrimp.

Everything was amazing!!! From the soup to the Entree. Great flavor and great service. Also great prices. We will be back more.

The food was good. I ate the beef and broccoli lunch combo. I had plenty of rice, but not much beef with the veggies. The sauce was on point. I like the crab ragoons and the egg roll. It wasn’t long of a wait for our order. I didn’t dine in so don’t have much to say about that experience.

La Fondita is a charming place for quiet dining. With 5 tables inside and 1 on the patio near the takeout window, there is room to enjoy your food. The food was good and the wings were meaty.

Really tasty food. Cheap lunch special. Hot and sour soup was not to our liking however the egg drop soup was good. Total for 3 people 32 bucks. Will be back.
