We had the good fortune of connecting with Fernando & Xochitl Ursua and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Fernando & Xochitl, can you talk to us a bit about the social impact of your business?
Ferchaladas has proven to our community that anything is possible as long as you believe in yourself and make a plan.We as a business have open doors to our fellow clients to encourage and guide them in their future endeavor’s.We support our staff ,as they are hard working latinos who are trying to make a good living for their children and themselves. Giving more opportunities to the latin community who are not valued as they should.As a form of giving back we allow small vendors to set up in front of our location free of charge. Giving them opportunities to sell their product and show the world their talents.Together we can make this world a more joyful place.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Ferchaladas was created out of a difficult time our family was going trough, it ended up being a blessing in disguise. Running a restaurant business is constantly challenging ,from our menus to our clientele from keeping the business running and engaging clients to come and try our delicious cuisine. Our menu consists of the best tacos and seafood you will ever tase in the world.From our delicious tostadas to our one of a kind recipes in seafood and amazing Birria. Our goal has always been to give the best service to our clientele from the minute you walk in to the minute you leave.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If we were out with our best friends and we would want to show them the best time ever wed definitely go get breakfast at our restaurant. We would then get some Scooters and ride along La Jolla shores and enjoy the magnificent views. Have a beach day and play some volleyball and drink some beers. We would definitely have to enjoy a padre game, downtown scenery ,hiking and try some of our favorite food spots such as Boiling crab,Barrio Dog and Royal Mandarin.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Shoutout to ourselves for always standing firm in what we wanted and believed in. In this generation it is hard to get any help or recommendations when It comes to opening up a business. For us not allowing the NO’s and discouragements from people around us to stop us from reaching this milestone.
