Casa Nomad

Some of the BEST DRINKS 🍹 in the city are made here! Big ups to Mixologists Chris and Monica for the amazing drinks, the service/hospitality, and for your contribution to providing such a cool and laidback atmosphere. I couldn’t have had a more positive experience. 😎

First time here - Spicy mezcal drinks, tiki inspired cocktails, delicious Mexican-flare bites and snacks. Definitely try the tostadas. Also bonus: they have green chartreuse! The vibe is so warm with great music and better people. Thank you Chris for a wonderful experience!

The food is incredible! Best corn ever!! And drinks are amazing. It is outdoors only and super cute. This spot is perfect for a girls night or date night. As a total foodie, I love a place that has a great menu that does each dish extremely well. No dish disappointed!

Loved the experience at Casa Nomad. It had a Tulum Mexican vibe to it. Small restaurant so I would recommend to make reservations. The cocktails were amazing and strong. The menu is small but the food did not disappoint. I would definitely recommend it if you are craving Mexican gourmet food.

This place is a nice hidden gem. For an appetizer get the corn dish, the onions and seasoning on the corn is amazing. The civche was mango and had a kick so if your not into spicy sauces stay away. They suggested the tamales, but I preferred the fish dish. That too had spices so if your not into spice be careful!

Casa Nomad was absolutely delicious! From the service to the ambiance I truly felt like I was in Tulum! The food portions are perfect for two. Personally I would recommend the tamales and sweet potato! Will be back. Thank you for an amazing time.

Great place to grab a bite to eat! It is also in a plaza so it was a little off to find. They menu is online and loved their drinks! And they had vegan options and gluten-free options!

The place here is absolutely & very welcoming. Chris made some delicious drinks I cannot wait to go back! His recommendations for us to try were spot on. Highly recommend this place! Definitely a place to start off the day/ evening with ✨

This place is an excellent spot for date night! Drinks are impeccable! Food is 5 start reasort worthy. It's a patio only spot and open in the evening only. Guys make your reservation early in the week to make sure you have a spot. Serve was great too! We love MKT. Great tequila selections! Also, mocktails for those who are expecting or don't drink alcohol.

Christian and Monica are the best! Made the whole experience so fun on New Year’s Eve. The drinks were amazing and the guac was so good. Definitely recommend it here!

Randomly stopped in with a group of friends on a Saturday night and had an awesome time! From the moment we arrived, the energy was spot on and set the tone for the rest of the evening. A huge shoutout to Chris, who immediately made us feel welcome, he was super friendly and attentive the entire time we were there. Ricky, our server, added the perfect touch to the night. He knew exactly what drinks to suggest and totally nailed it with his recommendations they hit the spot! With The Nomad being on top of my list! Overall, it was a great and fun experience. Looking forward to coming back!

Monica and Christian will take care of you here. The happy hour prices are the best in town. Drinks are phenomenal

Celebrated my sister's birthday, which she had a blast. Food and drinks were very good. The music was great. The place is very small with very little seating and it is hot, it's supposed to be like an enclosed patio style but it's hot, it could use fans. I definitely like the style of the place!

Finally had the opportunity to try out Casa Nomad as a friend was able to get a reservation. First off, this is a fair weather experience as all their seating is outside on the patio. And seating is limited, hence the rezy. Their cocktails are really good and Ethan even made some one off specials based on our preferences. 5 stars right there. The food was lacking in my personal preference for the coastal Yucatan vibe they are curating, which led me to 3 stars. There just wasn't much flavor in the plates we ordered. The black bean tamales fell really flat, the elote was decent, and the carnitas tacos were good I just still could have used a more "pop" in that taco. The Yucca fries were pretty standard but were like warm and came with no sauce for dipping. Yucca is pretty bland to begin with, so it needs something to dip it into. I was impressed with the amount of vegetarian options they had though. Not somewhere I'm rushing to go back to, but definitely a starter for drinks?

Reservation was made 3 weeks prior for a Wednesday at 5:00 which is the time that they open. No one had arrived yet, but me so the place was empty. I ordered the Elote, Adobo Beef Cheek and they were both delicious. The Adobo could have used more cheese though. The meat was very tender and well seasoned and the rice was cooked perfectly. I ordered the churros for dessert and they tasted like regular churros. It only came with a chocolate dipping sauce and I wish they had caramel instead. My service was exceptional!!! This place has a really chill vibe and is a great place to take a date. The dining room only seats about 32 guests so you need to make a reservation which is usually 3 weeks booked out. You can come after 10pm without a reservation, but you probably won’t get a seat as it does get crowded, again due to limited seating. I left a little after 6 and it was starting to get crowded.

Solid Bourbon menu. 114 Old Grand Dad and Weller Full Proof to name a couple. Not just Old#7 and Jim Beam like most bars. Hand crafted drinks were great. Not too loud.

Vibe - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Drinks - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Food - ⭐️⭐️ For appetizers we got the Pyramids, Esquites and Joyas. The Pyramids lacked flavor. They literally did not taste like anything unless you put the avocado sauce on it. I would have preferred the avocado sauce with chips. The Esquites- It didn't look like the pictures that other people had posted. Their looks like corn cut off the cob. Mine came in a cup with the cheese and peppers on the side. I just noticed that it seems like it was a menu and name change from Elite Ribs to Esquites. I actually wouldn't have gotten it, if I'd known it was going to be corn in a cup. The stunner was the Joyas (oysters). The presentation was amazing and they were good. For my drink, I had the Tuluminati. It was really good with the fresh dragon fruit. Overall, super cute, intimate, ALL OUTDOOR, spot. I would recommend making a reservation because it seats no more than maybe 30 or 40 people at one time. It definitely gives vacation vibes. Come for the drinks.

We were a party of 2 on a Saturday night with no reservation. When we walked up to be seated, the hostess informed us that “unfortunately we wouldn’t be able to be seated without a reservation” She advised us of standing room in the bar area. While at the bar we inquired about if we’d be able to order food. A very nice guy server was able to seat us at a table. While we were seated I observed multiple empty tables that sat empty for the entire duration of our stay. I would like to know why were denied a table… As far as the food and drinks, we had the tudulum cocktail; for food, the elote and pyramid. Everything was good. The vibe was nice. I would like to give special recognition to Juan Carlos. He was amazing!!!!

Was very excited to come and try this place out me and my friend came here during the week on a Tuesday to be exact! The Food didn’t meet our expectations Unfortunately .. ordered the chicken curry & it wasn’t the best , it had 3 pieces of very small chicken when our server Jessica said they were all family style dishes.. honestly the Indian cuisine from our personal experience at (musaafer in the galleria) was very much family style trust me! Also ordered the (beef mishkaki) for 24$ it came with 2 small kabobs…. tasted like a under seasoned ribeye on a STICK! For that much we could have had a whole steak! Yikes! As for the service considering it was during the week day we felt very rushed. I give this place a 2 & a half stars at that.
