This place usually isnt that good and its not that great for the price the resturaunt itself is strangely humid as well the food is pretty mediocre and tends to be room temp would not suggest but jose's is a wonderful substitute read more

I beg to come here every time I am in Magee, visiting. Great service there. They really get down to your level. It'd be easy to even call them a friend. They're just THAT nice. Incredible salsa, and very, very good tacos! read more

Seriously? Don't bother. I don't know what restaurant most of these people were eating at, but this isn't what I got served. So here is the skinny. Ordered Chile Relleno plate 9.99: comes with rice & re-fried beans, gauc salad on lettuce. Chile Relleno was not like I have had before anywhere. Didn't expect Mexico, but didn't expect to be worse than any cafe 1000 miles north of the border either. Had specifically asked waiter if had Chile poblano or other pepper like bell pepper as sometimes used with a scoop of ground meat mixed on it. Assured me was poblano but shredded "meat" (authentic as used in Mexico). What I got: basically a colby jack frita (fritter). 2 "rellenos"--1st, had a strip of an unidentifiable pepper, may have been green chile because of color. Not a whole pepper, but a piece of a pepper about 15% of the product. That, some shredded chicken & a lot of colby jack cheese was put in a light traditional egg batter and fried. Result: a mass of tough hard fried cheese meat mix so tough & dry, with the exception of a liquid I couldn't tell if came from the wet shredded lettuce of the salad or the frozen(?) pepper strip they put in it. No sauce. Second relleno, no pepper at all. Think of pan frying shredded cheese with no seasoning except some shredded boiled chicken with a little chili powder on it and slipping the mass in an egg white batter. 2 pieces about 4" x 3" oval. Rice was general cheap Mexican, a little tomato chile chicken bullion and beans were cheap thinned out canned. Shrimp enchiladas: same accompaniments, about 8.99. Same cheese mix with tiny shrimp you get from China in the can at the grocery. NOT the dried Mexican reconstituted type. Guacamole was pretty good for a tablespoon portion. Pre-meal chips were light white corn and crisp, but dowsed with chile salt so heavy, you had to buy more drinks--an old bar trick. Salsa OK, fresh tasting but nothing special--can tomato puree with fresh onion, cilantro hint of jalapeno? Went there on a tip, told--"really authentic & great". Neither of either. As a Chef, I don't expect people to cook like me, but I do expect to get basic quality food for the money I pay. This was kitsch, cheap ingredients and over priced. Taco Bell has better food. Beware. read more

Feranndos is one of the best Mexican restaurants I have ever been to. A lot of restaurants are about "flash" and "appeal"; Fernandos is about awesome Mexican food. I go there every time I am home! It's a must for locals and those traveling through Magee. read more

Awesome "momma made it in the kitchen" Mexican dishes. Cheese shreds like they were done by hand and something as simple as the ground beef in their crispy taco was well seasoned and simmered. Tall 22 oz frozen mugs and multiple beers on tap made it an even better relaxing stop. read more

I've been here a couple times and enjoyed both experiences. Good tacos and great salsa. Service is attentive and they have ample seating.

Stopped on our way back to TX from Thanksgiving with the family. Great little restaurant. Staff was friendly, salsa was great and love the pitchers they use to serve drinks. read more

Great service and food. I liked the little pitchers they give you for your drinks. The food was good and priced well. Fried ice cream was delicious. read more

Traveling from Destin,FL back to Texas. So worth the stop. People amazing, service outstanding and food delicious. The decor and atmosphere awesome. God bless this business! read more

Passing through Magee about supper time, decided to try Fernando's. Pleasantly surprised. The food was fantastic, the service was outstanding and fast. Several of the staff checked on us. Price was modest-beer was cold! read more

Excellent salsa and chips, daily specials, and wait staff! Stop in on your way to or from the coast and Jackson!

Staff was very friendly. If you are looking for traditional Mexican this is not it. They have good salsa but put some sort of seasoning on the chips. The food is just food. No flavoring and nothing spectacular. I'm used to Mexican food in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas and this definitely falls short. There were 4 of us and no one left thinking they might want to return. read more

Not much good to say about the combo taco plate. The tacos were pretty greasy and the Fernando's taco tasted like it had some dry roast beef in it. The waiters were short handed but did a good job considering he was by himself . Made sure he was tipped well. read more

Traveling home from the beach vacation and stopped here to eat! It was delicious and the service was spectacular!!!! They were professional, informative and just plain old nice!!! Loved it! read more

Found this spot on the way to the beach using the reviews on Yelp. We we not disappointed! My husband loves Mexican, but me...not so much. This place was an exception. I had the best nachos and everything was fresh. He had a full dinner and raved about it. The staff was very friendly and attentive. read more

Great service we were greeted by 3 different waiters upon arrival. Food was good, chips and salsa amazing. Not very many reviews which would normally deter me but I am glad we decided to stop. Definitely worth it!! read more

No buena! Friendly staff, nicely decorated, clean bathrooms. We stopped in for lunch on Friday. Food...not so good! Anytime I see creamy melted cheese that looks like Velvetta, I become doubtful. I couldn't find even a hint of Cilantro, in anything. No Jalapeño, either. Everything was very bland. read more

Above average Mexican restaurant. Salsa was very tasty. I had a dinner with 4 types of enchiladas and thought they were all good. Our soft drinks came in small pitchers which I thought was a little strange but I liked since I drink a lot during a meal. The best thing was the service. Fast polite helpful. Definitely will go back when in Magee, MS read more

THE nicest people I've ever met in a restaurant. Food was very good. Friendly atmosphere and terrific service. Simply the best I've ever experienced. I will definitely stop here every time I travel through. read more

Friendly service, food was average and prices were cheap. Not bad for a road trip stop.

The restaurant is in need of renovations, but the food is tasty, portions are decent, and it's inexpensive. I'd definitely go back, I just wish they served margaritas. read more

The food here is very fresh and everything in made here. Best chips and salsa anywhere! Excellent service. Much more than I was expecting from a small town! read more

I've driven by here dozens of times before I stopped randomly a couple of years ago with my father. My father is a super super picky and particular man. I've only seen him not send something back a handful of times and this was one of those occasions. He actually complimented the place without sending anything back. That says a lot about the quality and he is from Texas where they are known for their Tex/mex restaurants. The service both times I ate here was excellent. The last time I dined in the location I took my fiancé and our son and she was even amazed by the service and made a comment about how excellent the service was indeed. She is also very particular about quality and service so that also says a lot. 2 picky/particular customers that didn't complain and normally complain about most places gave it two thumbs up. I am impressed. Service is impressive and the food was really good too. read more

For a small town I think they're trying pretty hard. So I have to give them some credit. No margaritas set me in a bad mood from the beginning... I have to admit. The food was pretty good. My wife and I split the beef fajitas. Nice big pieces of steak. The service was great! I think her name was Pamela. Thank you, Pamela, for the great service. read more

We arrived at 3:10 and were offered lunch menus although lunch ended at 3:00. The cashier greeted us with a smile and a handshake. The male server was helpful and attentive. The food was delicious and the portions generous for the price. I got two enchiladas, a taco, and rice and beans for $6.99 read more

This is a great place to stop and eat! The staff is awesome and if you have any problems, they will correct it immediately. The best meal, to us, is the fajitas poblano! read more

I will not give a rating. My girls and I absolutely love Mexican so we were driving through Magee and thought we would stop in on our way home. My daughter is young and needed to go to the restroom so I left our jackets at the table so they would know we were still there. As we walked around the corner from the restroom, they were cleaning our table. The service was a little slow and I was ready to go so I asked that they comp the meal instead of redoing our food. the waitress disappeared for a few a little while then brought me a to go and our check. We had a two hour drive ahead of us and I didn't want to take the food. I asked at the desk why I was having to pay and the reply was they offered to redo my food and I refused. I told him about my drive. He said he would comp the meal but I had to pay for the chips and salsa. I have never heard of such! I told him I would not be back and he told me he hoped I would not be back. I have never been treated so rudely before. I am glad I live on the coast of MS and our Mexican restaurants are so much better. read more

This place was excellent! Service outstanding! The homemade salsa and chips where just right! The chicken strips and fries where crispy and delicious. read more

We stopped on our trip back to Texas from Florida. EVERYONE was Very friendly and appeared to genuinely want your experience to be great. They 'special made' me fajita cheese & sour cream enchiladas... They were great! My husband got the Fernando Nachos and they were very good also.. Friendly attentive service and great food... Good stop !! read more

The food at Fernando's is mostly good and I like to stop there whenever I'm in the area at lunch or dinner. However, I agree with a previous reviewer that the chile relleno is poor and seems like cheesy goop with little strips of pepper mixed in. Other that that, the burritos and enchiladas have been good. They also serve tea in a large glass so you don't have to repeatedly ask for refills. read more
