Great price for the amazing experience and quality of the food. Also excellent service. I spent my birthday dinner and the do a... little show for you, very nice actually! We ordered crawfish soup and fried shrimp as appetizers but when I say it tasted good,it was actually heaven. Main dishes were chicken with pasta and a crawfish pasta (AMAZING) not a fan of the bitterness of thewine used to top the chicken but really great place. Also recommend the Peruvian beer they have, great experience Read more

My wife and I usually come to Fernando's for special occasions. The atmosphere is somewhat dark and romantic. A good date... night place. Last night (Saturday), we decided just to dine here for no reason. The food here has ALWAYS been excellent. Ihad the El Hefe and it's always been the BEST beef filet I've ever eaten. No joke, I actually cut into my steak with my forkjust to show my wife the tenderness. You won't find that at Saltgrass or Longhorn. My wife decided to try the Corvina fish forthe first time. Very mild fish dipped in egg whites, lightly pan fried, with a butter sauce on top. There's NO egg on top asone person complained. My wife liked her fish, but she liked my steak better. We had the bread pudding for dessert. It was soso. One thing I need to explain about their service. If you want a quiet relaxing atmosphere with no rush service, thenFernando's is the place for you. If you want a noisy, tv infested dining option where they push you out as fast as you come in,then you might be better off at a chain restaurant. Fernando's service is paced out. Each time we go, this is their routine: They give you water and allow you to converse a bit before taking your drink order. You can always flag down your waiter or askfor the menu sooner. Plantain chips come out along with the menu. Once you order, the food comes out quickly. We never feelrushed. Last night, we were dining during a private event and our entrees still came out quick and hot. Fernando (owner)always comes out to talk. He doesn't even know us, but he'll come out and ask us about the food or just talk for a couple ofminutes. This treatment isn't just for the regulars he recognizes. How many other restaurant owners do that? Fernando's hasbeen here for many years, so they're doing something right. I never understand people who will eat at an establishment, haveissues, but won't direct their problem/s to the manager/owner. Instead, they get on social media and Read more

Was really looking forward to this place, 4.6 stars. Not sure where. The soup was to cheesey and salty, guava lamb was... guavaless, and signature seafood was a fried fillet with egg York on top of it. Read more

Excellent everything! Great food, great service, decent prices for fine dining. Gorgeously decorated! And kudos for actually... playing fine dining music. Great latin food. We had the Ecuadorian fish, and salads, and cheesecake and cappuccinos. Allexcellent. Only got pics of the salad unfortunately. Read more

We went for a celebratory dinner. The main dining room has a beautiful elegance with its rich wood paneling, soft lighting and... pre-set tables, ready to welcome you! Slow, romantic music played in the background - Etta James' "At Last," for one. I peekedin one of the play rooms and saw a mic set up, so that's pretty nice. Another room was cozier - it had a big table set up for anintimate meal. The bar area was set off to the side, divided by the wine section for, I assume, a more lively crowd. There werefew diners as we had an early dinner. There were complimentary fried plantain strips with a creamy, garlicky sauce (oraioli?).We shared the trio sampler and they were so kind to serve it already split. It didn't look split, more like two ordersof a nicely presented appetizer. I had my heart set on paella, to bring back lovely memories of our visit to Valencia. The chefcame out and listened to me discussing with our waiter. I said I didn't want a heavy meat and thought paella would be perfect.He said with a roll of his eyes toward heaven that the corvina was so, so, very good. I was torn. The chef said with a wave ofhis hand to not worry, he would do something. He came out with a plate of a smaller serving of paella and a good-sized piece oflightly battered corvina glazed with a semi-translucent sauce. A little salsa and a piece of fried plantain added the perfecttouch! The fish was very tender and moist and the sauce just gave it that delicate, extra burst of flavor! The paella had moreseafood and meats in it than I had in Valencia - mussels, shrimp, little scallops, clams, fish, tiny crawfish (or langostino?),sausage and chicken! Together, the corvina and paella made for a great combination. I was very happy! My husband's steak, theAl Hendershot, was not thick, but it was big. He likes a steak with flavor (like a ribeye). When he took a bite and went,"Mm-m-m," I knew he was happy. It came with a side of toasted garlic bread slices. We shared Read more
