Alright, so my experience of the menu is NOT EXTENSIVE, as all I tried was a Bean and Cheese burrito and it was alright. I'll go back as they didn't screw this one up. Some places can't even do the simple bean and cheese so an establishment has to get past this for me to even bother with other things. They did, so I will. read more

Great food and super friendly people! My favorite place to get fresh deli foods and stuff for bbqs.

We very much enjoyed our visit here last night. Luz, the polite lady taking orders was very pleasant and helpful. The birria tacos we enjoyed were mouthwateringly delicious. The flavor of the meat was bold, and it was super tender and juicy. The onions provided bright, tangy pops of nuanced flavor, and the tortillas were spot on. Loved the Spanish rice and beans as well, They also have a market adjoining the dining area and we were able to purchase some of our other favorite consumables from Mexico. Most authentic Mexican food I've had the privilege to eat in Oregon yet, and we will no doubt be returning many times! read more

I drive the 40 mile round trip every couple weeks to eat their pastor tacos,menudo,and burritos.Its not an overly decorated hacienda type restaurant it is just like a market in Mexico ,but with the best ingredients at their disposal,and the have the flavors down!! The menu is not huge they keep it simple and perfect what they offer,not to mention the family and friends that run it are awesome!!! I have had ,and tried a lot of Mexican food in my life,of this style it's the best I've ever had. read more

Food is always amazing. I've tried the majority of the menu, and I have yet to be dissapointed. By far my favorite place for mexican food in Independence. read more

Always welcoming and well stocked butcher case and grocery. Excellent tacos. Very good breakfast burrito. This is a cultural center of town.

Loved this place! Got 2 tacos: the asada was delicious, but the pastor was insanely good -- meat juicy, caramelized, fantastic. Beautiful, with great toppings and garnish: whole beans, grilled onions. They've got a dining room to eat in, classic Formica and fluorescent styling. Wish it were around the corner from me, I can't wait to go back. read more

This is THE BEST Mexican food you can get in Oregon and the prices are reasonably cheap. Growing up in San Diego I have been extremely spoiled with great authentic Mexican food. Since moving here for college I've been searching for a taste of home. THIS. IS. IT!! It tastes just like the Mexican food I've grow up eating, it's truly authentic and DEEEELICIOUS!! I always order the carne asada (grilled, seasoned beef) tacos. The tortillas are small (as they should be) so I recommend ordering a minimum of 2-3 tacos. The meat is perfectly seasoned and comes with onions, cilantro, salsa (it's a bit spicy, but hurts so good!), grilled onions, guacamole, and beans. I have never been a fan of onions or cilantro, but I eat them in these tacos. Not only is the food good but the staff is sooo friendly and welcoming. If you haven't been, you don't know what you're missing and I shed a tear for you. read more

This place is legit! As a 25 year vet I've lived all over the world and tried Mexican at all of them. I'm so lucky to now live in Independence where we have this place. The care and love they put into their tacos is amazing The family is super sweet and everyone works hard to make awesome food. By far my favorite. read more

Their tacos are so good! We've tried asada, pastor, and carnitas and all three didn't disappoint!!

My husband and I have been looking for good Mexican food for the last two years since we moved back to Oregon from Southern California. Who knew it was hiding in Independence? I am not one to write reviews. I either have to feel strongly positive or negative about a place to review it. They are extremely friendly and the food in the deli is by far the best burritos we have had in Oregon and maybe even California, bar none. We will most definitely be frequenting this place for time to come. read more

FANTASTIC, AUTHENTIC Mexican Food! WOW! I've always liked Mexican food, but this place is AMAZING! The only thing that would make it better is if they had a drive-thru! Even though I call in my order, I usually still have to wait a few minutes, but it is SOOO worth it! The food is DEVINE and the prices are REASONABLE! LOVE THIS PLACE - You won't be sorry! :) read more

Love the tacos here! Very great flavors! Fair prices too. A little gem of a spot for traditional Mexican food.

This is my favorite stop to eat in the area. I'm a poor college student and this place keeps me coming back at least a couple times a week. The food is cheap, but delicious. Hands down the best carne Asada tacos and burritos I've ever had. Most other places the meat is dry, tough, or fatty but the meet at this Carniceria is so tender and juicy. Bottom line, if you're looking for a good meal that won't hurt your wallet this is the place to go. read more

Carniceria Mi Casita - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Oregon

This is how a typical Mexican store/food place serves their food. This is the norm down in Tijuana and in California. Obviously some people don't appreciate the authenticity. But anyways, the Torta I had there was awesome. Everything cooked the way my mother would make it and the salsa was legit. Go here for authentic home made style food. read more

This place can be hit or miss on food quality,, I've had some great burritos here and I've had some bad ones with dried out over done hard meat.. Same with the tacos read more

Carniceria Mi Casita - Carne asada tacos,, meat overdone and hard - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Oregon

Carnitas are very good . Grilled chicken on weekends is very good. They sell hot food and raw meat of all kinds . They have some grocery and produce items they are on the expensive side . Mexican dried peppers and spices . Mexican pastries too. Careful when getting hot food or meat by the pound because of you want 2 lbs . They might give you more and it adds up quick. I'm sure it's not by accident. .you might say I want 10$of ------. Instead of pounds. Just a tip. read more

Absolutely love this place, tacos pastor to die for, Torts that will fill you desire for more with every delicious bite. Burritos are epic and HUGE they have ice cold coke from Mexico that has real sugar in it not the local crap. Their Avacados to purchase are the best, fresh limes to buy for your beer and lots of fresh meats and cheeses. read more

The food is amazing! One day after moving here from San Diego, we were we having withdrawals for Mexican food. The Pastor burrito surpassed expectations. I expected beans rice and Al pastor meat, maybe some cheese. They added sour cream onions fresh chopped jalapeños and awesome sauce apparently. My wife's breakfast burrito was allegedly good too. Service is funky. And you're in a Mexican meat market. But be ye not deceived, for Al Pastor preacheth goodness in truth. read more

Place has really good food, had the pastor, chicharone and lengua tacos and the passole. Tacos are 1.50$!!

Only place for truly delicious Mexican food..Best menudo I've ever had..owner/family are friendly and will serve you anything you want..wonderful Fresh bakery & the butcher shop will cut you any kind of meat you want.. cold beer..& cold Coke from Mexico..can it get any better than that! read more

Carniceria Mi Casita - the outside of a store - Mexican Near Me - Independence, Oregon

Mi Casita's taco's are a special treat for me. I love squeezing the fresh lime wedges over the top just before biting in. I was in there last week and a guy ordered 7 burritos to take them to friends in a Portland suburb. There is no doubt why people would want to wait an hour for this delicious food. The burritos are very large - good size for a hearty appetite. The tacos are small, but reasonably priced. The service and cooks are friendly and seem to love what they are doing. Yes, it is inside a tiny market / convenience store. A diamond in the rough! If you like mexican food, you've got to stop by and grab something for home! read more

Recently moved here from SoCal last year and have been on the search for good tacos. After trying several places in Salem, Albany, and Corvallis, I found this place on google maps. These tacos are better than most of my favorite places back in California. Husband also confirms that the chicken torta is great and is now one of his favorites. The pan dulce is one of the softest breads I've tried. Service was awesome too. Will definitely be returning soon read more

Independence probably has as good, if not better Mexican food than anywhere else in this state. Thank god for taquerias with not a single drop of vegetable oil on the premises, and where "vegetarian" dishes are cooked in lard just like everything else. Where I come from enjoying a sixer of Negra Modelo and a carne asada burrito with about two cups of pico de gallo on it while sitting on the beach is pretty much a universally accepted form of evening recreation, and tri tip cooked over oak with pinquitos is high art. The true test of a Mexican restaurant is their chiles rellenos, and although I still have not found a really good one in Oregon, I HAVE found a carne asada burrito that ranks with the best at Carnicerita Mi Casita! Five bucks of heaven. read more

This is our favorite taco place in Oregon so far. We have tried other taco places that are authentic but this place is hands down the best. You can't go wrong no matter what you order. My favorite is the carnitas tacos and burritos my husband loves the steak and carnitas tacos. They give you very generous portions. On the weekends they make home made shells. We tell all our friends and family about this place. We can't express enough how great this place is. It's a market too so you can but the meat and good home and fix your own. read more

My first experience was fabulous. I didn't know what to get so I tried steak tacos is and chicken quesadilla. Both were incredible. Friendly staff and delicious food. I cannot wait to go back. read more

The absolute most authentic Mexican food you will find in the Willamette Valley. They make fresh tortillas on the weekends and you can buy their carnitas by the pound. They get super busy around lunch so call your order in and save yourself some time. They have pan dulce. The owners are kind and friendly and they give back to the community. read more

Total fan and will be back in a heartbeat. Quaint latino store where you can go grab anything you want, order some amazing tacos, burritos, tamales, menudo, then they ring you up when you're done. We had the Asada, Shredded Beef and Beef Tongue tacos and all were juicy and excellent. The owner simply couldn't be a nicer guy and makes you want to come back. We also went back in the store and come home with some amazing Mexican pastries they sell. Made us feel like we were in Mazatlan. Definitely try this place before/after going to a movie in Independence. read more

Best Mexican food in the state. Just wish that I can have a beer at the smart time. Poor ambiance but the food is authentic and delicious!

A super friendly staff with an amazing take out food, baked goods, and a well stocked butcher case; I love this place!

My husband and I come here all the time for a burrito or tacos. At least once a week. It's so cheap and good quality. Some nights we just grab some carnitas to take home or Mexican bread for breakfast/dessert with some Mexican hot chocolate. The staff is always nice and the guys make such good food. Never a complaint here! read more
