Fernando's does that comforting version of cuisine that's a mash-up of Mexico, Texas, and California. It's not what you'd call "authentic Mexican" cuisine, and it's not what you want to eat on a diet, but it's oh so comforting. On top of that, the staff is wonderful. So helpful. So friendly. If you live nearby and want a Tex-Mex place to come back to over and over again, Fernando's serves food that's a big, warm hug on a plate.
Excellent service, food and drinks. The prices are very reasonable:)
Great food and great drinks. The portions were very generous and the service was great. The parking was challenging, so plan some extra time to get spot at peak times.
I visited Fernando’s Mexican Restaurant for dinner with my family and we had a great time. The restaurant is cozy and colorful, with a lot of Mexican decorations and paintings. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious and authentic. We ordered the enchiladas, the fajitas, the chile relleno, and the carne asada, and they were all flavorful and satisfying. The portions were generous and the prices were reasonable. We also enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa, which had a nice kick to it. The restaurant also offers takeout, delivery, and catering services. I would definitely recommend Fernando’s Mexican Restaurant to anyone looking for a tasty and enjoyable Mexican meal in San Mateo.
