Casa Méxicana

Food was alright, enjoyed our dinner. Place had lots of seating. Host was curtious and friendly

Very bland no flavor , and margaritas were horrible too , salsa is just blended up tomatoes nothing else in it , just Awful

The service is beyond amazing.

What an experience! Firstly, the restaurant was clean, the music appropriate and staff attentive and helpful. The food though, I don't even know where to begin. It's not Mexican. They say it is, and the rice and beans make it appear to be Mexican, but I swear there is someone's British grandmother doing the cooking in the back. Being new to the area and having spent the last few years in the midwest, I was hoping to have real Mexican food, but alas, I was disappointed. Even the Iowa Mexican had more spice than this. My spouse had ordered the Diablo Shrimp in the past and it was just shrimp with some red coloring on it. There was nothing "diablo" about it other than the sin of calling it mexican. Even after this experience, he wanted to give it another try, because, as previously mentioned, the place is clean and the staff is great. At this visit, I ordered the carne asada - imagine my surprise when the spiciest thing on the plate was the onion. No roasted jalapeno here, you get a complacent green bell pepper to spice it up. After diving into the main course, I looked at the basket of house tortillas hopefully, thinking that perhaps that was the redeeming niche of this establishment. As I unwrapped the parchment paper, I was happy to see the scorch marks of well toasted tortilla, only to discover that the bulk of the tortilla was rather doughy - and tasted similar to the uncooked pie crust I used to snitch from my grandmother's counter as a child on the day before Thanksgiving. But even Grandma's pie crust had salt. These were an experience. I tore off a piece of the generous tortilla to share with my spouse and as he took it in his hands, there was an immediate "Nope!" and it never made it to his mouth. So, in all: Clean, comfortable, decent place. Food is not exactly mexican. Also, chips were stale. The "salsa" was the definition of sauce, no kick but pleasantly fresh. Bonus: Definitely no after effects common in very exciting Mexican food.

Authentico! The chips are fresh and home made. The Tortilla is also fresh and homemade. I highly recommend the Machaca plate.
