"Fernandez Restaurant is packed on the weekends, for good reason. Most consider birria a Sunday staple, whether to cure a hangover or just to curb an insatiable weekly craving. The menu is limited and consists of Tijuana-style birria, made from beef in a broth of dried chiles, spices, and beef juices. The meat can also be ordered inside a crispy taco, as a quesataco (a tortilla filled with grilled, melty cheese and topped with the stewed beef), or as a family-style portion served with warm handmade corn tortillas, chopped cilantro, and onion for do-it-yourself tacos. It’s true comfort food, without any frills. Take note that the restaurant is closed on Monday and Tuesday." - Kristin Díaz de Sandi
