Hernandez Mexican Restaurant

We went there on a Saturday afternoon for a bite to eat, the server was pleasant and took my mates sarcastic ways in stride.

Terrible Taco Bell is better orderd out food was cold order was wrong taco meat was moosh a lot better places in the area

One of my favorite mexican restaurants in Delavan. I’ve been there a couple of times and the food and service have been great. The owner, can’t remember his name, is really fun and makes eating here a experience. The chips are the best I have ever had and made in house. If you haven’t been there, I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

Solid American version of Mexican at a reasonable price. What we found to be stellar was the capable, friendly and well-​coordinated wait staff. Loved the experience. Will be back when we visit the area in the future.

Awful! I’m born and raised in California where Mexican food is absolutely authentic. I’m sorry Wisconsin… But this Mexican food is garbage!

Garbage. This place is dirty. Walls covered in blankets. Ceiling too I might add. The food is just gross tasting. Brought my husband, son and nephew and we all have never been so disappointed. The wait staff take forever. One customer dumped water on her table and was trying to get someone to help her. She had to get up from her table and walk back into the kitchen to flag someone down. Just bad service and I will never give money to them again. One star is even too much.

Excellent local Mexican restaurant. Though there are no substitutions (que lastima), there are ample vegetarian options. I enjoyed my Tostadas de Guacamole, tostadas smothered in guac and beans with lettuce, tomato and a goodly sprinkling of cheese on top. It was more like a salad than a traditional tostada but that was very pleasing. My wife got some tasty pork tamales (with enough for the next day) and fine lime daiquiri.
Service here is very friendly (it seems to be a family-​run place). The room is comfortable and nicely decorated with a neighborhood vibe.

We love this place! The homemade chips are awesome! The menu is a little confusing because they list several different cheese enchiladas that sound the same, but I just throw a dart and I am never disappointed. The service is friendly. The margaritas are really strong and a better choice than the wine (which is likely box wine). They don’t mind if you get a little rowdy and they surprise you with a fresh delicious cookie on the way out. What is not to love!?!

The enchiladas are delicious and so are the burritos, tacos, chimichangas and tostadas. I’ve been to Hernandez recently for lunch, dinner and carry-​out, and it was excellent every time. I’ll keep going often.

The guacamole did not taste fresh. The tex mex enchiladas were way too salty. The service was friendly though.

Every time I come here I have a really good experience. The service is always pleasant and the owners are always present and involved. They offer drinks and the prices are good. They also have an outdoor deck and TV’s!

best Mexican food around. We love it!

For the middle of Wisconsin, we thought the food here was good. Service is slow, and menu is long n confusing, but the vegetarian options, especially enchiladas were solid.

there is so many better places around town don’t waste your money: Good Chips but I make Good Chios

Crispy home-​made chips (good, but hot salsa — green & red) for complimentary starters. We each had a shrimp dish, mine was a bit too sweet for my tastes (tequila shrimp) my SOs dish was good (Mexican shrimp). I was craving deep fried ice cream, but I was disappointed by the (what appeared to be corn flake) crust. Complimentary cookies were given with the bill. Beware the margaritas are STRONG. Friendly & fast service.

Always good food! Sauteed garlic shrimp is always the best!

If you’ve had real Mexican food, you’ll know that this place is mediocre at best. We had tacos and they were extremely bland with no real flavor or spice. But we didn’t get sick after eating, the chips were warm and tasty, and the service was fine. Keep in mind, you’re probably not going to find great Mexican food in small town Wisconsin… but this place is okay. Just nothing delicious or special or authentic.

Yikes… aye caramba…
«Hernandez» has now become a household verb… and not a pretty one. «I just hernandezed my pants…»
Service: Slow and the waitress didn’t come back for refills, a box… oh and she pronounced menu items incorrectly. Okay, I get that I’m not a native Spanish speakers, but I know my Mexican food pronunciation…
Food: BLAND… 3 people used an entire bottle of Cholula hot sauce trying to remedy this…
The worst part: Dad went to the bathroom to wash his hands after dinner and found the cook leaning against the wall almost passed out really sick… yea we had finished our food already… Maybe the sick cook was the reason we all had severe gastrointestinal issues (the shits… correction the hernendezs) for days. One almost didn’t make it home before a major hernandez needed to be done…

I don’t usually eat Mexican food in Wisconsin, but when I do, it’s at Hernandez.
The food, the décor, and the owners are charmers. Hernandez has been a community staple in this small Wisconsin town for 34 years. I grew up with special trips to Hernandez just for the chimichangas if I promised to sit still and quiet during my dentist’s appointments. It didn’t disappoint then, and it still delivers the goods now!
My usual menu:
— They do traditional and specialty margaritas. A regular size will do you fine, but if you want to go all out fiesta, they have GRANDE sizes that are ridiculous sized.
— Crazy decadent nachos. Get them with everything.
— Like I said, I always go for the chimichangas. Go for trio, which features three small chimis filled with chicken, beef, and cheese. Okay, so they are more Arizona than Mexico, but who cares? They are delicious!
— Fried ice cream is a nice treat for the end of the night.
With that, you have eaten enough fat, sugar, carbs, and tequila to last you for a week. But it was worth it, wasn’t it?

I heart Hernandez’s!
Any local will tell you it’s one of the best Mexican food restaurants in the area, with a very large selection. The margaritas are strong and tasty. And, the best part, you can order them by the pitcher!
The owners are always there, in a good mood, and looking to make sure you have a good time.
Ask for the mild salsa to go with your chips. The flavor is delish.
Again, this is another case where I wish Unilocal had a half star system – they deserve a 4.5 rating!
