About Fernando’s Alegria

Your experience at Fernando's begins the moment you the Portland Mercado. The smell of culinary creativity will draw you to Fernando's cart, where you will always be welcomed with open arms. Fernando's puts a creative spin on classic burritos and wraps. From mojito vegan wraps to carnitas burritos, there is something to be found for everyone on their extensive and innovative menu. And for those who so not like the wrap or the wheat tortilla, you can have a deconstructed burrito!
