Some of the best tacos and tostadas. Amazing salsa trio, drinks and vibes. 10/10 for me

Located in North Williamsburg, and very family friendly. Also, this restaurant is very friendly toward gluten free. 99% of the menu was gluten free. I loved the mother's dining room ambiance. We were seated right away. However, the service was very slow. We started with the guacamole, which was very tasty and had jalapeños in it, which gave it a good kick. Then we got the street corn? Which was also very good. My daughter loved her quesadilla. She wasn't a fan of the yuca fries, but I thought they were delicious. My mom and I ordered the shrimp diavolo. My mom got it without the sauce. I didn't eat much of the sauce, but it was good, just spicy as expected. The rice it came with and the corn tortillas were a perfect pairing. My father and husband ordered the asada yucateca, which they both enjoyed but felt was cooked more rare than medium rare. My brother, who lives in Brooklyn and we were visiting, ordered the pollo en mole cassero. He liked it and noted it was spicy. The prices were reasonable and we loved that it wasn't so loud. We could have a conversation. I would recommend and will be coming back. Would love to try a margarita one time. read more

DELICIOUS brunch!! Really stellar. The food is very flavorful and fresh. Very good sized portions. We all loved the dishes we got. The star of the show was the Huevos Rancheros - and we added steak. This was a lot of food but it was really great. The restaurant is very cute and had decent amount of seating. It's rather quiet for brunch which is great for walk-ins. Our server was kind and attentive, we got our food very fast. read more

A great Williamsburg spot! They blend traditional Mexican home cooking with dishes found in the markets of Oaxaca, Puebla and Mexico City. There's plenty of space, so it's perfect for a date or outing with friends. Come have a hearty meal and a delicious margarita! We Tried: *Pollo en Mole Casero - Chicken crusted with toasted sesame seeds, nuts & spices in our mole negro with Mexican rice & corn tortillas *Bruselas - Fried brussel sprouts, mint, chile serrano & pomegranate *Queso Fundido - Melted cheese with choice of chorizo con papas or roasted mushrooms with corn tortillas *Churros - Churros, cajeta, chocolate Everything we tried was delicious!! The staff were nice, and the vibe was good! read more

On April 11th, I went in there excited to eat here and said "Hi! Table for four please". The restaurant was completely empty and there was only one staff member present who was a tall white bearded male. He must have not heard my "Hi". The waiter said "Hi? Hello? Good morning? Maybe let's start with that first" in a very rude way before grabbing menus to seat us. I was completely caught off guard, especially since I had already greeted him. The interaction felt unnecessarily hostile and unwelcoming. Because of this, we decided not to stay and left without dining. read more

Ok place is nice drinks where good played good music staff was friendly yes all these things are great but the food the food guacamole is really good tacos the biria ones they need to trim the fat off meat got two pieces in mine the chicken it's ok So authentic mexican nope for what u get yes over priced read more

Stopped by Casa Publica for a 8:30PM dinner on a Saturday and were pleasantly surprised to see that we were able to get seated immediately. It's a fairly large restaurant and I can see that it's a great place for larger groups (we saw two birthday celebrations here!). The staff were very friendly and we ended up ordering some chips and guac, margaritas and tacos. I got a spicy cucumber jalapeno margarita and an order of their pescado tacos. The margarita was refreshing, sort of like spa water with a little bit of spice. The fish tacos, however, was a tad disappointing. At $20 for two tacos, I had high expectations but the batter was too thick and I felt like I was eating more batter than fish. It was also drowning in too much mayo, which ended up being super tangy and overpowering. Overall, good drinks and very mid food so if I do come back, I'll just stick with drinks! read more

Stumbled in here looking for a Friday night dinner and was pleasantly surprised! The tacos are a great size , super flavorful and yummy. I would put these biria tacos in my top 10 in the city. Maybe at like .. number 7 though. I will say the drinks weren't my favorite, everything was a smidge too sweet and 2 margaritas had me waking up with a swollen sugar hangover. Try and order something classic and clean instead to avoid this. The other thing i would take points off for - its expensive. Of course. But like actually... a little tooooo over the line expensive for tacos. If the food wasn't so great I'd say skip it, but the food in fact was delish. read more

liked the food in the past, but server refused service, while open, asked me to come back in fifteen, and denied service when returned and waved me off. He continued to field other customers in mostly empty restaurant. Just miserable interaction and most rude interaction in five years of NYC dining and that's saying a lot. read more

The tuna tostadas were AMAZING. I wish I could eat them for breakfast every day. The tanaraind margarita was very nice, not too sour. The queso with chorizo was a bit too salty. I'd go again. read more

We only stopped in for a quick drink so I can't give a full review. However the vibes seemed welcoming and the music wasn't too loud. We sat at the bar and ordered margaritas. Bartender was fast and nice. Since the food items on this menu looked appetizing and prices were decent I will be coming back. Can't wait! read more

This place has me in a chokehold! The tuna tostada are out of this world good. The drinks and the ambiance is just right. The desserts were so good. My waiter actually sat down with me to go over the menu. He had patience and explained and recommended dishes in great detail. Would def go back. read more

Stopped in for a drink before dinner and had a drink at the bar! Adorable place. I had the agave gimlet which was perfect because I already had chosen gin as my liquor of choice for the night. I don't really like to mix so I appreciated that they had a gin cocktail. I have never had mezcal gin before and man, did I love it! I am not the biggest mezcal fan but this was much more mellow while also having the smokey aspect of mezcal. The cocktail was delicious! Service was quick and attentive. Will stop in for dinner next time. read more

I walked by here a few weeks ago, and something about the scent from the kitchen and warm summer night vibes gave me the sense this was a winner. While I didn't have a chance to sample their alluring mezcal negroni on a weeknight, the limited dishes we sampled were all stellar. I came specifically for the vegetarian enchiladas suizas, which I can say confidently were the best enchiladas I've ever tasted. Neither too heavy nor too light, and served with a thick yet tangy green salsa. I'll be back with a larger group to sample more of their menu! read more

DO NOT COME HERE. The man that was the host was extremely rude and treated us with such disrespect. We have a service animal and he asked for papers (which is illegal) and refused to seat us in the main dinning area. He put us in a back room where it was hot and stuffy. When I opened a window he told me I could not open the window. We ended up leaving due to his attitude. Bummed because the food looked great. read more

Some of the best drinks I have had. Great environment and the owners were very nice to my group. Highly recommend

The food was very yummy, and the ambiance was immaculate. I will be going back for brunch again. The pricing was reasonable. Each sauce that came with the meal suited the dish perfectly. I was a little disappointed with the birria Benedict; usually, it's an English muffin, but the restaurant put its spin on it and made its own revision of the muffin. For me, it was a little too thick, and the flavor of the dough overpowered the birra and egg with sauce read more

Came here for dinner on a Friday night after noticing available seating outside on the corner. Cool atmosphere as well as attentive staff buzzing around both inside and out. Between two people, split the Guacamole ($13), Enchiladas ($18), and a Margarita ($12 each). Margaritas come out first, strong pours that paired well with each dish. Guacamole is served in a large bowl, half filled with warm tortilla chips. Chunky texture; just enough spice and citrus. Enchiladas are served last - heavy on the cheese and sauce, but easy to eat overall without needing anything extra. Again, service is quick and the seating is set back enough to not be disturbed by the traffic. Would come back again for sure. read more

Love the atmosphere of this restaurant/bar. Came for early dinner and drinks and would definitely return! Grab a couple friends and order a margarita pitcher, best bang for your buck! Recommend the Cucumber Jalapeño Margarita, has a kick Apps - Esquites and Guac are both 10/10. Ensalada de Sandia is a miss in my opinion... Tacos - Al Pastor and Pescado, def delicious! Will say if your hungry load up on apps, cause 2 tacos for the price of a set isn't very much food. Great service, especially when I was in a group of about 10. read more

I'm so glad I could finally check Casa Publica off of my list, definitely recommend for a cozy intimate dinner with friends or a date night. Appetizers (guac, salsa, tuna tostada) were all delicious. Margarita pitchers were good. Tacos were lovely. Everything was really good, but didn't blow me away, which is why it isn't five stars. But otherwise, a very solid choice for Mexican food in Brooklyn! read more

Returned to Casa Pública on a mini neighborhood crawl. Realized they have an outstanding mezcal selection. They've got a mezcal list in slightly aiding the selection process. I tried a Sobol by Coyote, a mezcal by gracias a Dios, and another mezcal by la Luna. Keep an eye out for Gracias a Dios. We shared an order of tuna tostados. They were so good. I decided to sprinkle a bit of the seasoning that came with the mezcals to amp up the spiciness. I'd highly recommend the tostados. For dessert, we shared the flan. It was scrumptious! Service was friendly and attentive throughout. They have gender partitioned restrooms with a private toilet located inside both the mens and womens restrooms. read more

EV.ER.Y.THING HERE IS GREAT!! Went here for a friends birthday and had a great time: we had a reservation that we arrived a bit early for and were seated immediately. Waitress came right over to welcome us and got us started with drinks. They came out quick and everyone loved their drinks: my favorite being their Mezcal Negroni. Ordered a bunch of appetizers to split, and individual entrees: all came up really quick. Even with every table filled, we were getting our food and drinks with the quickness. Highly recommend Casa Publica for gatherings with friends - they have a few large tables in the back read more

Casa Publica offered a pleasant experience. In my opinion, the menu was a bit small for my liking, however I believe it may have been reduced due to covid-19, for more ease of service. The food and drink were delicious, I had enchiladas and a margarita as pictured, but the service was a bit slow and confused at times. I asked a question about contact tracing and received an inadequate answer. Besides that, the outdoor seating area was very enjoyable, and the inside was cleared to make the bathrooms as accessible as possible. This was a very nice eatery but I am wondering if covid restrictions caused some of the imperfections I experienced during my meal. read more

Went here for a Saturday brunch with a few friends. Great ambiance with tons of natural light, and located just outside of the heart of Williamsburg next to McCarren park. Food was fabulous, and the drinks did not disappoint. Try a spicy margarita or a Paloma with a Tajin salted rim for a refreshing afternoon pick me up. Absolutely do not skimp on trying the corn based pancakes with a mint and berry compote. As a group of 5 we split the pancakes for dessert and DEVOURED them. Warm and filling yet fresh from the mint and berries, it ended our brunch on a sweet note. Definitely more optimal for smaller parties (6 or less) who prefer to pay a la cart. Casa Publica is not your typical bottomless brunch spot in the city, but you get what you pay for. Portions are average sized, at about $15-$20 a plate, and are personalized (rather than family style). Service was excellent and appreciated that they did not rush us out. Would be 5 stars, but the brunch menu was not posted online which made it hard for folks with allergies to decide what they could eat ahead of time. read more

The worst experience ever, my boyfriend and I went a couple of days ago and the manager talk to us in a very rude way, also the food is terrible, takes a lot of time to come to the table and the place always smell like bonfire, terrible! read more

Casa Publica... your vibe was nice & you absolutely captured my heart by playing Bomba Estéreo. The latter being most important. We stopped in for a drink... I'm a gin drinker and saw a couple of different gin's on the shelf other than Hendricks & Brooklyn Gin. That made me rather curious and happy - I like exploring our gin community & different options that are out there. Saw a very cool bottle... Garcías a Dios, and wanted to give it a shot. So, I've experienced this once before - the gin flavor was smokey and reminiscent of a tequila, which is great, if you like that particular flavor. I however, do not. I had purchased a bottle of gin distilled at Wölffer Estates in the past, which was very similar - I wasn't expecting that flavor and was definitely not a fan. Just not my speed. Long story short, (and 100% my opinion), as an establishment, when you see a drink that has one sip taken out of it, ask questions and certainly do not charge for that drink if there's an honest explanation... which this was. The bartender asked, I explained and he proceeded to charge $13 for the gin and soda cocktail that had one sip taken from it. Not a good look in my eyes. With that, everything else was cool... food looked good, vibe was cool, etc., but unfortunately, that kind of rubbed me the wrong way. It's not hard to do the right thing, especially when you're charging $13 for a cocktail that involved one shot of gin. read more

Went with a big group for brunch. We loved the ambiance- the music was great and so was the decor. Everyone we were with seemed to like their food. Some items we tried were chilaquiles with salsa verde, steak and eggs, our toddlers ate guacamole, scrambled eggs and yucca fries. Everything we tried was really good. Our waiter was very friendly and accommodating. My husband's family is from Mexico and we often avoid Mexican restaurants because they seem overpriced and lack authenticity.. but he really liked the food here. Overall we were really glad we tried this place! read more
