Casa Baeza Mexican Restaurant Truckee Reviews
This place deserves 5 stars to be honest. The food was amazing. The service was phenomenal. And the vibe was great!
The chips were very good, and warm, the salsa was really good not to spicy. I had the delicious casa wrap, and my Husband good taco with lots of meat, great beans and rice. Our server was so wonderful, it was very clean.
Best Mexican food in Truckee. The queso cheese dip is delicious. Lava tacos were outstanding. Service was very good.
Soooo happy we ended up eating here!! Food was delicious (homemade corn tortillas...yeesss!), service was personable, attentive and fast, cute decor and Cadillac margaritas were on point! And very reasonable prices! I had the Carnitas, and friends had the classic burritos and enchiladas. Everyone loved their dishes! It's just off the main drag near the Truckee hotel. Highly recommend eating here!
What a terrific experience. I was immediately welcomed and chose to sit at the bar. Looking around it became apparent the margaritas were popular. Upon looking at the menu I also realized I should partake in the taco Tuesday special. Within minutes I was engaged in conversation with fellow patrons to my right and left, the karaoke machine was blasting songs and the entire bar was singing led by the bartender. I left the evening having filled my stomach with delicious tacos and savory margaritas, I had a handful of new friends in many belly laughs to show for it.
This was our second time eating here, having visited a few years ago on a California road trip. We were bar hopping in Truckee and the bartender said if we're looking for good Hispanic food, we should absolutely go to Casa Baeza and to ask for "Clay Pots". Well, we weren't disappointed. Even during COVID restrictions, this place was amazing. Great service, delicious food, and those clay pots were devilishly good. We hadn't stopped talking about that place in the few years since we ate there, and made sure it was on our itinerary when we made a motorcycle ride into Reno for Street Vibrations 2023. On a day where we rode through Virginia City, around Lake Tahoe, and through Truckee, we made sure to stop for dinner at Casa Baeza. It was everything we wanted and more. This time we brought a friend with us and they had nothing but great things to say about the food and drinks. This is a long winded explaining to say that we really loved our experience here and we thank them for making our adventures extra magical. We know we will be coming back again.
Amazing dining experience! Friendly service and very attentive. Mexican food is very authentic. Staff is very attentive to your needs and can make suggestions on must have plates. I highly recommend the Volcano Tacos (so good they were gone before a they got a chance at a photo). Will come again!
Dropped by here with a few friends on a Monday eve at 830pm- It was pack and for good reason. I ordered a michalada to start. It was delicious!! I will definitely come back for these on my next trip to reno. I had the carnitas platter with pinto beans and rice. My friend had the chicken chimichanga with beans and rice. Both plates didn't stand a chance to see a Togo box.
My first time at Casa Baeza, my wife and I enjoyed the experience, song, dance, drink, and food. The chips and salsa was amazing, I added some habanero salsa to mine because why not? 😃 But let me back up a bit, the entrance and the mood set from outside to the walk in was quite thrilling, the artwork around the restaurant, the subtle details you may miss if you aren't paying attention, definitely a place when you make multiple visits you will find something new each time. The staff was friendly, professional, and a riot at times 🤣 we enjoyed the drinks, shots and house margaritas. We ordered asada tacos, I took time to dress mine up with grilled jalapenos and added my salsa mix I created on the spot using the ingredients available, that's a pro tip I might share next time 😃 Every ingredient was perfect, I don't say this often. From the beginning to the end the experience was full of flavor and story. I can see why there is a vibe of love and passion in this place. Thank you from Andrew and Vanessa. You guys are amazing and I will be back ❤️❗
Went with my good friend and we ordered some street tacos. Wished there were refried beans, but the shrimp tacos were LEGIT! The chipotle salsa was sooo good. I would go back for that alone. It was a busy night, so service was all over the place and the place is very tiny, so would recommend eating earlier or be ready to wait.
Group of 4 ate there and the service was horribly slow. We went at a not busy time 4:00 and there were only 2-3 tables and at least 2 servers. Put salsa on the table and waited 10 minutes for chips??? Finally took order and that took forever too. Two chicken taco salads were ordered and one was noticeable bigger than the other. Turns out the big one was fish and then we had to wait for the correct chicken replacement. Two orders needed flour tortillas and food came and then sitting waiting for the tortillas. thus the 2 service star rating
We were seated promptly upon arrival, which was a positive first impression. The interior decor was really awesome. The food was decent, though not particularly memorable. Unfortunately, the service did not meet expectations. Despite the restaurant not being busy, there was a significant delay before our order was taken. One of our dishes was missed, and our server did not check in with us at any point during the meal. With improved attentiveness and communication from the staff, the overall dining experience could be improved.
Hard to find parking on a busy Saturday afternoon. First the food: The food had great flavor. We got the jalapeno peppers and the nachos starters. The poppers had really good flavor, deep fried. The Nachos were also good in flavor. The portion however was rather small. We ordered the additional chicken (2 or 3 bucks) and felt totally fleeced. There were 3 meager threads of chicken and that was very disappointing. Savory but disappointingly underserved. The Margarita was good and strong. We liked it. The service experience was mixed. We noticed the tables were not sanitized (in light of covid) some of them not even wiped with the classic old dirty rag. That was scary and concerning. Our initial waitress mixed up our drink order and told us what we ordered was not available. The next waiter was excellent, however, revealing that the previous waitress simply lied to our faces. He then really addressed our requests and made up for the bad first impression.
My sister recommended this place. Service was great, no waiting for a table and servers were prompt. Ordered two chicken enchilada combo with rice and beans. One enchilada only had one bite of chicken. I sliced it open to see a couple of tiny bits. Beans were passable but rice taste was best described as musty. Mexican is my favorite food, this was the worst I've ever had.
Walked in to a busy restaurant! Immediately sat down at the bar and waited around for 15-25 minutes without receiving any service. The bartender acknowledged us but did not offer or ask us for drinks or a menu or anything at all. Wild. And don’t recommend.
The worst Mexican food and Paloma cocktail I have ever had. My cocktail tasted like it came out of a can. My husband ordered a Margarita. Not much better. I had the chimichanga and the guacamole was made with over ripe avocados. The whole thing was a very bad experience.
