La Casita Austin Reviews
Great margaritas, chimichanga, enchiladas, and chips. I love their pollo piki piki. Looking forward to going again and trying more of their long menu. Happy hour Monday - Friday 3-7 including $5 frozen margaritas.
TLDR The best shrimp cocktail in the city! Absolutely amazing experience! From the moment we walked in, the service was friendly, fast, and attentive. Our drinks and food came out quickly without ever feeling rushed. The shrimp cocktail was the star of the show. Super fresh, zesty, and packed with flavor. It had a kick but not too spicy😋 The staff made sure everything was spot on. Highly recommend this place if you are craving authentic Mexican food with top notch service. We will definitely be back!
If you’re from California and trying to find something that tastes like home, THIS is Mexican food that is as close as it gets. I had pozole that was fantastic! You can’t find many restaurants that serve pozole around here, and this is the spot for it!!! Also the prices here are phenomenal for the quantity and quality!
Great taste! I ordered, barbacoa tacos and they were really tasty and delicious, also ordered a chorizo and egg tacos which was tasty and of a considerable size. Chicharrón taco was okay, I thought it was going to be more tasty or the chicharrón was going to be as Mexico is cooked instead of bag chicharrón. We finalize with a tortilla soup that was a big bowl, with chicken, avocado & melted cheese. It was tasty with a slight touch of chipotle but no overwhelming, it also had shredded chicken. Overall great place to have Mexican food, personnel was friendly and courteous. Only thing to highlight was that when we came the table was dirty probably it was due to the short staffed, they cleaned it as soon as we sat.
Stopped by here on a whim. The staff were friendly and the spot is an updated hole in the wall type. They have happy hour Mon-Fri I believe 3p-6p dont quote me though. They have reasonable prices and standard tex mex type menu items. I ordered the queso enchiladas with beef. I enjoyed the enchilada plate minus the picadillo they used. It was seasoned and had papas in it but the texture of the beef was off to me. The rest of it was fine so I would return and try the same except cheese instead of beef. The chips are like store bought ones and the salsa is okay. Reviews say positive things about their soup and other items. I'll update once I return.
Good and inexpensive. Several quality lunch specials each week day.
The food was ok but everything else was excellent in my opinion. My girlfriend really enjoyed her order. So maybe it was just a miss for me as far as the food but I'm sure they some delicious meals.
The food was satisfactory; however, the service did not meet expectations. The two employees on duty appeared unenthusiastic and disengaged, which negatively impacted the overall experience.
The food has gotten better here. Nice quiet place for dinner. I'm not sure if you just pay at the counter but the waitress just took our order and delivered our meal. We never saw her again until it was time to pay her at the counter. No drink refills or table visits.
Overall disappointing. I had poor service. The chicken in my meal had weak seasoning (I say weak because it tasted plain). I had flies bothering me as I tried to eat. My glass was never refilled. I didn't finish my meal, but no one returned with a check, so I couldn't ask for something to take it home in before I gave it to the flies. I had no way to know, as a new patron, to go to the register and say what I ordered to pay. Something tells me that's not actually protocol, though.
I come here every other day to get the same thing beef fajita nachos bit today they decided i couldn't eat inside its the dame worker that hates to be in there and whats the point of closing at 10 of your not serving til 10 if I come in I should be able to eat my food the same as every other workers but what I do t speak Spanish so I cant eat Inside I like how close it is to my house but I dont like how everytime I go in I feel like im not wanted ...I dont like hair in my food amd I certainly dont like rotten salsa I should be good in knowing im getting food by people who wear hairnets but no I have to have a long price of hair in my foos and when I told them about it she first tried to just pull the hair out until she saw how we were looking at it and only then did she offer to remake the food i used to like it but there is only one good hostess you can try to speak to the other one but she will straight up ignore you if your not a POC which is really disheartening because iv been co.ing so often and this is only the 3rd time iv had hair but it makes me wonder what else is going on and when did service become so bad
I would not suggest! So disappointed! I had a meal delivered through Grub hub and I'm sorry to say it was, by far, the worst Mexican food I have ever had. The cheese enchiladas had almost NO cheese. The tortillas were SO thick and were NOT cooked. What can you do wrong with rice and beans? The rice was horrible as was the sauce. All I want to do now, is go to La Margarita for good cheese enchiladas!!!
Terrible. Incorrect order and they charge you a 20% tip even if they gave terrible service. Would not recommend. The waitress was not friendly either
This restaurant used to be one of my favorites. But I noticed that the regular waitresses weren’t there anymore and kept seeing new ones. They used to be polite and friendly, but now it’s not the same. I also heard what it looked to be the manager treating them very rudely. I don’t plan on returning. The food quality has also gotten down. There are better options!!!
Worst customer service. Food isnt that good. Ordered through door dash dm items were missing. I called to resolve the issue and the staff was rude and hung up on me. Her name is Yolanda, I asked to speak to the owner and she cussed me out in Spanish and hung up the phone. Do not order from here, I will be contacting BBB for further investigation. Unacceptable!
