I keep trying. The service is slow, the food mediocre, and the restaurant is just ok. Maybe next time??????? Had to drop a star. Our server last night was sick and still working. Service is still slow and the taste/ quality of food does not make up for it. We all decided it's time to find a new place to get this type of dinner. read more

First time for my wife and I having lunch there. The food was great and plenty of it. And the service was great as well. We will surely be returning to eat there again soon. Thumbs up, David S. read more

Soooooo sad!!!! This place is under new ownership and has gone completely downhill!!!! The food isn't as tasty and takes forever. Service is slow and nowhere to be found. We thought it would smooth out after a few months but sadly it's only gotten worse. The owner must be in the back on her cell phone or something because she isn't in the front with customers. Many customers complained that there was no staff to be seen. One guest waited so long to pay with their card they ended up leaving cash because no one ever came back into the dining room to cash him out. It's so sad that this once booming business is failing. It used to always be pretty busy and there were only a few customers while we were there. read more

The food was delicious and fresh. I have eaten at all Latino restaurants in this area but this one is the best! Tastey, good service, fresh, and the price is great! I'm coming back. The chicken flautas were delicious. read more

Fernandos recently moved from their long-time Placerville location over to a new spot in Cameron Park. It took us a while to find them, but it was worth it! They have added an outdoor patio with TV - you might want to wait until warmer temperatures to enjoy it though. Although all the food is good, their Salvadorean Specialties are outstanding. Try their take on Chicharrones or Yucca (both in the appetizer section). Or basically anything under the specialties area of their menu. We go there for lunch on occasion (their website has a coupon) and find folks that have driven 30+ minutes just to get there. Lots of people just grab food to go and take it back to work. Busy place with good prices and great food. After your lunch, jump over to J&J Java for some coffee to go! All in the same strip mall... read more

We went here last night. It was close to closing but they still invited us in. The waitress was so nice! She helped my friend pick items to avoid her food allergies and was very helpful. The food was great, prices were great. Cant wait to come back! read more

Outstanding authentic papusas at a reasonable price. Excellent enchiladas, beans, horchata. Atmosphere is casual and service is attentive. Only just found the place so have not tried a lot on the menu. Only minor complaint is the Mexican style rice could have more flavor. Great local place to support. read more

My favorite Mexican food on Cameron Park - the Chile Colorado is AMAZING. The service is always great. I got my husband some chicken tortilla soup while he was under the weather last week, and it was a little different, but very delicious. read more

This is our go to for Mexican food in the area and have been coming here for YEARS. The Chicken Tortilla Soup is the best. The papusas are really good as well. The service can be slow at times, but they will keep bringing chips and their great salsa as you wait. read more

So sorry to say but I got to go from this restaurant and it was very much sub par. I ordered a half chicken dish and it came without a chicken breast ( 2 drumsticks and one wing). However that is not why am leaving a review, I am leaving a review because I found two black hairs in my meal. The food tasted really good but I hope the owners have a chance to read this and can take some extra measures to make sure that hair does not end up in peoples food. read more

Seem to be going down hill. The service is slow, they give you very few chips. The salsa isn't as good as it used to be. Maybe they changed the recipe? We enjoyed this place a few months ago.....not so much anymore. There are other places in Cameron Park to get marginal Mexican fare. read more

Great Food with hostess that were attentive throughout my dinner. Top spot to get your fix on Authentic Salvadorian and Mexican dishes. The owner of the restaurant is very personable and will even go as far as answering questions and providing great customer service. I will be coming back as soon as I am in the area. read more

Big shout out to Fernando's! It's is a hidden gem. I've eaten here four times now and every single time it was delicious. The service is really good as well and the food is well priced. They helped me out with a big order of beans, on a moment's notice, and charged me for a special order instead of multiple single orders. I am planning on giving them a lot more business and recommend for anyone in the area to check them out. read more

Had lunch here today for the first time. If you're ever in the area and craving Mexican or Salvadoran food, this is the spot. The service was great and the staff very friendly. The food was served hot and was plentiful that we actually took some home. Looking forward to the next visit. read more

This is the Mexican Restaurant in town that serves yummylicious food! Also the service is great and the price is affordable which sum up the word tummy satisfaction guaranteed!!! read more

Came here the other day for a burrito to go and boy was that a bad decision. All of the Spanish rice in my burrito was undercooked yuuuuck!

Pretty good food, Service and prices. Some stuff could use more "flavor" but for the prices and how picky people can be with seasonings I understand lol I enjoy it I LOVE HOW CREAMY THE GUACAMOLE IS read more

Ok, so I have to go to everyplace that even sells a burrito. The menu looks pretty good, but a bit on the pricy side for a Mexican/central American place in my opinion. The place was just 'ok' to me. There was nothing that jumped out to make me think of anything more than 3 stars. I will go back, but not for the wine margaritas or the burrito. The plates were massive, that's for sure, but not that tasty. Sorry to everyone that rates this a 5, but I try to be as objective as possible in my ratings. I have been to a '5' before, and this place doesn't come close. read more

Came here with my girlfriend and all of our kids today. The food was pretty good... The three stars is for the service. Two girls were taking care of us. The first girl with super long hair was nice. She got us our apple juice and water's and then handed us off to the brunette girl. They both didn't introduce themselves which is important to me because I like to know my servers name so I can ask them questions if they're walking by, but they both didn't. I just felt that the brunette didn't want to be serving a handful of kids. Anyway, the food was good and the portions were hefty. We did run dry on our waters and had to ask for our check. Not my favorite place, but if I'm in Cameron Park, I'll still go. read more

I am giving one star on the service from the blond haired waitress. Every time I am there, she is rude, very short with her communication and overall unpleasant to deal with. She should not be in the customer service business. Maybe she doesn't like dealing with to go orders, who knows. I called this evening and ordered the beef and chicken fajitas along with the children's flautas. I even asked for another order of corn tortillas. I get there and see I have taquitos instead of fajitas. She proceeds to tell me I didn't order the fajitas. I could tell when on the phone that she wasn't listening to me. I even told her that she wasn't listening. She proceeded to tell me it isn't her fault she didn't listen. Really?????? You work with the public, that's your job, to listen to the orders and get them right. She didn't even apologize, she just said she could get an order in now. I told her I was going elsewhere. I'm not giving them my money & if I have to wait another 20 minutes, I'll go where they know how to treat customers. I will NEVER go back here as long as she is employed by them. It's a shame, because the food is good. read more

As stated, this is probably the best Mexican food you'll find in Cameron Park.. The food is decent, the prices are moderate, and the service is prompt. Myself and significant other dined in for lunch, I was surprised at how busy it was. I ordered their 2 vegetarian enchiladas with rice and black beans -- unfortunately, it was slightly bland and forgettable. The boyfriend ordered the carnitas fajita salad, which he enjoyed. I liked the complimentary chips and salsa, very flavorful. I ordered their horchata (beverage), which was questionable and wouldn't recommend. O.o Overall, everything was "OK". read more

Meh I wasn't too impressed by the food at Fernando's Costa Del Sol. I just wasn't feeling it. I guess I came in having really high expectations for this place and it failed me miserably. The food wasn't all the glory that other yelpers have claimed it would be. It tasted like any other Mexican restaurant. Granted, my review is based off of dinning over a months ago since I'm backed up on reviewing places again. The thing that stood out for me was that it was Salvadorian food, which is similar to Venezuelan food. I tried the papusa and tamal, um yeah tasted like the next Mexican joint. Overall the experience wasn't too amazing along with the taste of the food. I have to admit the waitress is a doll and the service was fantastic! read more

Although the prices are reasonable, we experienced very poor service and the quality of food was very poor. Soggy "crispy" tacos, bland rice & beans, over done carne, and it took over 40 min to get our food after ordering. Apparently, if you order "To-Go", the service is much better. We saw SIX to-go orders go out before we even got our food. The wine margaritas should be skipped, along with their salads. We were hoping we could have found a great local spot with authentic Mexican/Salvadorian food, but this is not the case here. Too bad. Very disappointed. :-( read more

They suck! They can't get your order right, I've had this problem several times, I will never go back.

This was the worst Mexican food I've had. Taco Bell would be better. Service was horrible they brought us our food and not even 10 minutes later they were asking if they could box up our food. Food was so bland beans were absolutely horrible it seemed to be 60 percent water. read more

1st time, me and my boyfriend literally live right around the corner and have for probably 2 years and this place can hardly be seen from the street! Checked the yelp ratings and decided to go in. They have a good selection of brews, my boyfriend had a corona and I got a Kona. He had the lunch special which was a MASSIVE chicken burrito with all the fixings inside and cheese on top for only $7. I ordered a pork pupusa and just YUM and so cheap $2! The chips and salsa were addicting!! LOVED the salsa and being brought up with a Mexican stepmom I am super picky. We will definitely be back here I can't wait to try more menu items. read more

Fernando's Costa Del Sol - Lunch special chicken burrito and revuelta pupusa - Mexican Near Me - Cameron Park, California

What a hidden paradise. I live in Folsom but was visiting a friend in Cameron Park. We stopped in for a bite to eat and I left very satisfied with a meal. I had the Chili Verde. I like that a small salad was included and never having eaten at a Salvadorian restaurant I took the waitress' advice and chose the homemade corn tortillas- yummy! Ill be back. read more

Looking for a great place to eat in the Cameron Park area, then Fernando's Is the place to go. The weekly specials are great. Go on Thursday night and get the Taco's. Order the home made tortillas and you can us them to make a couple more Taco's. The fish tacos are also the best in the area. The salsa has a great flavor and it makes it hard to stop eating it. You get a salad with your meal too. Great atmosphere and the staff is happy to please you. read more

EXCELLENT FOOD!!!!!!! The waiter was SUPER! She knows!! We went to the anniversary for our dinner....What a super dinner!!! Ever thing was excellent! We had enough to take home!! Every thing about it EXCELLENT!!! Thank You!!! read more

We love it here, the food is always good, can take a little while if they are busy but usually very fast service. You can take the whole family out and the meal is very affordable. I love that they serve a little side salad with the Ala Carte items. read more

The salsa is great but please don't order seafood here! I have tried their fish tacos since the new owners have taken over and way toooo salty. Now, i have moved onto their shrimp tacos. Both smell of disinfectant that I can only assume is what is in the back of the house that they attempt to keep them from spoiling, I am super disappointed with the new ownership and their lack of concern for the quality of their food because this used to be our favorite go-to restaurant at least twice a week. read more

I've been here twice. The BD likes the pupusas here. I think they're just ok. The rice and beans are just ok. The chicharrons are too dry when fried and has no fat. The guacamole is just ok. Everything needs seasoning. But the BD really likes the pupusas here so two stars for that. We came today for a late lunch and got here a little before 3. We were the only table. Yet the wait was LONG AF. We got our drinks and chips and salsa but it was almost 10 minutes before someone took our order. Then it was 30 minutes for four pupusas and a kid quesadilla to come out. Come on. read more

I tried Costa Del Sol a few weeks ago for the first time and couldn't stop thinking about their yummy fried plantains...I went back today and they didn't disappoint. Everything is homemade and fresh. I will be back often read more

Norma is the owner, and cook here... The food is delicious and outstanding... They work at being the veryyyy Best... I have not been able to go there for almost a year, but am so happy to know I am back and once again enjoy the best Mexican n Salvadoren food everrrr... read more

Everything I've ever gotten they has been amazing! I was on a "3 mini tacos for $5" kick for a while and I love their chimichanga and tortilla soup, great chips and salsa and a great a la carte menu! The owner Norma is fabulous, super friendly and always comes and says hi; all the staff is great. Bonus: they carry COKE not Pepsi! restrooms are always clean and stocked and they can accommodate larger groups, I think I got a group of 14 in there once. We've been going for years and it's one of our favorites. The only negative thing I can say is that that are a bit slow, but that's never stopped us going! read more

Fernando's is kind of hidden but it's located in the south west corner of Green Valley Rd & Cameron Park Dr. The food is very good here. Somewhat pricey, but the quality is excellent. The lunch menu is reasonable and when you go check out the specials. You will find good deals on their specials. I usually order the Tostada de Ceviche (shrimp), Acapulco burrito or the Taquitos. The food portions are pretty big so you will have leftovers. I recommend this place! read more

I've been here a few times with different people, no one has ever not liked their dish. It's a comfortable atmosphere and good food. As far as the shrimp chimichanga goes, I figured it might be worth a risk and ended up legitimately disappointed when I was too full to finish. read more

Had lunch at Fernand's yesterday with a friend. She ordered the Chimichunga - she really liked it. I ordered a "deconstructed" chicken burrito (I do not eat wheat). The chicken was served over some black beans with melted jack cheese on top. The chicken was amazing. Tasty and tender. I had the combo black beans and also some refried beans. Both were very good. It also came with some rice. The rice was OK. The server was VERY friendly and professional. The lunch special prices M-F are fantastic. Will be back! read more
