Next review is courtesy of my friends at Mothering Touch baby group, as they helped me find this hidden gem! Here is the review for Hernandez, found in a mall at 734 Yates st.
Access: Excellent! The mall doors have wheelchair push-buttons that allow for easy stroller access. The ramp to the restaurant itself is easy to find. The tables are well-spaced, leaving many places a stroller can fit without being underfoot. We even had four strollers at one table without any trouble!
Food: Delicious! My chicken tacos were messy and superb.
Service: Fast, no-frills.
Cost: Very cheap! My tacos and a bottle of fancy beer came to $12.
Baby-Friendliness: Great. Bright, plastic tablecloths ease my paranoia about my baby spilling/ruining something. Similarly, some dishes (like the tacos) are served not on plates, but on sheets of wax paper... impossible to break by accident! Note that I did not get around to using the washroom there, so I cannot report on whether there's a change table... will update when I know. Lots of space and opportunity to breastfeed, though a nursing cover is a good idea for the more bashful mothers, since the restaurant spans a mall thoroughfare.
Overall Grade: A!
Depending on the verdict with the washroom, this restaurant may yet break the A+ barrier! Stay tuned...
Nevertheless, I've found a new favourite, and I will be back!
Hernandez is a favourite if mine!! The washroom - you have to get a key and code, and the heavy door closes fast, so you have to be quick. I don't remember if there is a change station or not. YUMMY food! My personal favourite: Black Bean Tacos (5/$5)
