Crema's Take

This beloved Oxford spot has recently reopened under new ownership and is already winning back devoted regulars with generous portions of well-executed comfort food, from blackened red fish to crepes, all delivered hot and flavorful by a genuinely warm staff. The kitchen clearly takes pride in their work while keeping the vibe relaxed and family-friendly, making it feel like the kind of place where you'd be equally comfortable celebrating a milestone or grabbing breakfast with your parents. At 4.5 stars with over 600 reviews, it's clear that Hernando's Underground has successfully reclaimed its spot as a neighborhood favorite.
