What Newell Robel doesn't like about Fernando's Cafe Cantina:
I have been to Fernandos many times. Their margaritas are my favorite. Very strong and not sour at all. I often get a pitcher with friends. The pitchers hold about stout drinks. Their food is good. Great flour chips. I love the bean dip. It has a red sauce on it that is very tasty. The pica de Gallo is very good too.

read moreFernandos, a popular Tex-Mex restaurant in West Omaha, was known for its strong margaritas, great flour chips, and delicious bean dip with red sauce. While some dishes were overloaded with cheese, health-conscious diners could opt for main course salads loaded with fruits and greens. The menu offered a variety of Tex-Mex options like tacos, enchiladas, tamales, and fajitas, with huge portions to satisfy diners. The full bar included a range of margarita options, although some may not have been to everyone's liking. The casual, comfortable atmosphere and fast, friendly service made for a pleasant dining experience, with prices mostly falling in the $8-$13 range. Unfortunately, Fernandos has closed permanently after a decline in food quality.
The food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. Unfortunately, there is no outdoor seating available.

read moreTaco salad and pico with flour chips are my go to order! Love them every time I eat there! Service was timely; servers were pleasant and attentive.
They keep changing the menu, definitely liked the old chips and salsa much better.
Excellent food at a fair price. Portions are shrinking like everywhere else, but quality is still great.
Took my granddaughter for lunch. She ordered the kids burrito which was supposed to be beef cheese. It came as bean instead. We told waitress but did not send i...
