  DO NOT GO HERE!! STAY AWAY!! Had one decent experience out of three. I have never written a bad review. The owner or manager is CHEAP. Makes me nervous as to what they will do to save money. Grosses me out. First visit OK. Nothing special and NOT CHEAP!! Then, after surgery I could not eat certain things. They said no substitutions period even though the section I ordered from had no such restrictions. Other sections of the menu did say "no substitutions." My mom ordered breakfast. It was lunch time. Charged extra for breakfast then no coffee because it ran out and no one else wanted some. She is 84 and ate her taco with out coffee. NO COFFEE WITH BREAKFAST? Coffee and Tea cheapest cost out of any item for restaurants b costs cents per glass/cup. Went again... We were we were 5 people. They said they would not push two tables together. Wait. What? We just did it any way. Service was slow. Meat on my plate TASTED OLD. I am diabetic. I ordered water with extra lime. They tried to slip in a $2.95 charge for a limonada because I used too many limes. They didn't say anything until we confronted them. Their demonstrated cheapness scares me. Their service is lacking. They charge extra for breakfast. They won't make you coffee if it runs out. It's not cheap. It's nothing special and hard to get in and out of. With so many choices GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!

  im sitting here right now. ive always loved this place for their delicious breakfast plates. well this time i came for lunch. Big Mistake. i ordered the Veracruz Plate which comes with chile relleno with picadillo, cheese enchilada, a hand shell beef taco and a chalupa for 10.95. my mom ordered a chile relleno eith picadillo plate for 8.95. Halfway through im not enjoying my main course. i can hardly taste the chile and just taste the breading. i mention it to my mom and she poonts out thats its not even a chile relleno. its a breaded sloppy chile and they just add picadillo and cheese on top of that. Its not even relleno. una mexicano o mexicana sabe de lo que digo. the enchilada is just flat tortilla under a lot of cheese.
  
  i brought it up to waitress and she says i needed to have left all the chile so that they could consider my complaint. but in my defense i was trying to enjoy it and give them a chance. but i left more than half after i found out it was not even relleno.
  
  we ended up paying $27. not a bad price, but its not great either if you didnt enjoy your plate. I recommend Shrimp Haus in Mcallen for a delicious chile relleno plate for $10.
  
  Never again. Not recommendinf Fernandos. maybe only for breakfast.
