We came here for their Thanksgiving dinner Buffett since my whole family was away for the first time. Unfortunately, the food was awful. It was very disappointing. Hopefully their everyday food is better but I can’t speak on that. I don’t recommend coming to their Thanksgiving buffet. Myself and my husband barely ate and our two kids didn’t touch a thing. It also ran us about $51/person after tax and tip. You live and you learn.

What a beautiful restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the wild mushroom soup and loved it. The main course was filet and it was cooked perfectly. It was juicy and flavorful. Make sure you have dessert, it's worth leaving a little dinner on your plate for. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Fernando’s Restaurant, a small family owned restaurant , committed to quality - is one of the best restaurants in central New Jersey. The food is always fresh, nicely presented, and hot! The mushroom bisque soup is the best soup I’ve ever had! The white linen tablecloth restaurant is great for a big party or small. The service is excellent, they are warm, very attentive, and happy to serve! We drive from Middletown, Delaware to meet friends and eat at Fernando’s because it’s close to the NJT, and their prices are reasonable!If you’re looking for good food, a very clean restaurant, and your standards are high, this is the perfect restaurant for you. Also, the menu offers a delicious selection of Mediterranean food to scrumptious hamburgers! Try It!

Vegetarian options: Fernando’s has Mediterranean food - plenty of vegetarian options! Even a vegetarian burger, so good!

Dietary restrictions: My friend asked for gluten free food - the server went out of his way to insure her dish was safe from gluten! *****

Parking: The restaurant has off street parking, with several handicapped spots. Although it’s on a Main Street, the parking lot offers the ability to drive in and turn your car around to drive out safely!

Kid-friendliness: This is a family owned restaurant, they welcome families with children.

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant has enough room at the tables to accommodate a wheelchair.
