This place is sooooooo delicious. I don't know what it is about their chicken fajitas but oh my goodness their chicken in that is the best. It's tender and moist and the seasoning on it is just amazing. read more

Americanized-Mexican style food. Casa Ramos is a branch off the Azteca restaurant chain. Multiple members of my family really love this place and that's why I go. If you are looking for Mexican food similar to the southwestern U.S. this is not your place. During peak hours this restaurant is hoppin'. So temper your expectations about instant service by ordering a beer or margarita as soon as you are seated and just relax. Plus you'll be provided a constant flow of chips y salsa while eyeballing the menu. After you place your order it won't take long to receive your food. This place is loud, crowded but not cramped, and generally happy. I believe the margaritas are large and strong for two reasons. To promote the festive Cinco de Mayo atmosphere and to loosen the billfold. I dare you to drink three. The menu is large and offers a wide variety of veggie, pork, beef and chicken entrees. I go with the carne asada y mojo. Carne Asada is thin, broiled steak topped with a steamed and charred green onion and jalapeño. Mojo is butter sautéed shrimp with garlic and red chili flakes. The platter is filled out with mexi-rice, reefers covered in cheese and a small stack of fresh pico de gallo. read more

For a long time this was my favorite Mexican restaurant! It's a large place so you usually never had to wait for a table and the food was always served hot and fresh. Their chips and salsa were also very yummy...I probably could have just lived on those for every meal! Prices are reasonable. Additionally they had one of the best giant margaritas in town. I remember a couple times having to share with people otherwise I would have probably been sleeping in my car....that drink was enormous! One drawback is the service. They usually did okay with a couple people at a table but any party larger than 4 and for some reason orders never seemed to be correct. There were a few times I came here with lots of people and every time most of the orders that came out were incorrect! Not sure why or what was going on but this is something that definitely needs to be worked on. In any case though, if you want good reasonably priced food then come here. It's yummy! read more

We absolutely love Casa Ramos!! We have had family reunions, birthdays and just good meals for many years here! Excellent food and the service is always friendly! I absolutely love the made in store tortillas!! So authentic! read more

Decently priced food for how much we got and the quality of it. Came here at 9 pm on a Saturday night and there were minimal customers around us, and our waitress checked on us once throughout the entire time and it was maybe 3 minutes before she brought us our check. We were starving so we took advantage of the chips and salsa that were brought to us when we first sat down. We had to slow down after a couple minutes because no water was brought to us for the first probably 15 minutes because our waitress came and asked us if we wanted anything to drink besides water, and then when my boyfriend asked how much their well tequila shots were, she didn't know and just left and came back a few minutes later STILL WITH NO WATER and then asked us again what we wanted. I have to say though, the raspberry lemonade was amazing. I was worried that it was going to be too sweet like i've had other places, but it was honestly a perfect level of sweetness. We ran out of chips and salsa before we ordered our entree's and those along with our water were never refilled for our entire duration of our meal. She brought us our food and between her two other tables that she was serving, she couldn't remember which dish was whose between my boyfriend and I. (The picadilo was so good and juicy, it was probably my favorite thing about dinner.) Our waitress didn't even come NEAR us for the entire time that we were eating until we were done and waiting for the check. our total was $35 for 2 meals, a flavored lemonade, and then the extra for sour cream and guacamole, so not terrible but could be better priced especially for how small the enchiladas were, how little chicken was in them, and how there was almost NO enchilada sauce (the stuff that looks like sauce in the picture is pure grease, trust me we were fooled too). To sum it up: don't expect even decent service, but the food is pretty good. read more

See all

I love it here. There is a male server who we always hope to get.. he is so enthusiastic and just a perfect server all the way around! Honestly all the servers are awesome and have never been slow or messed up our order. It's just fun to go here. Get the queso guys.. its sooo good. read more

I've been coming here for years! Since I was a small child. I moved to Georgia and I have been craving some Casa Ramos. I visited home and recently and the first thing we got was Casa Ramos. It tastes just as great as it did years ago. I always look forward to seeing the friendly staff and enjoying some great food with my family... even during Covid, they still maintain the happy and friendly environment with amazing food! Thank you for always being great read more

This place was a trip. It's like a Mexican restaurant from The Good Place. Or it's a Mexican restaurant run by space aliens who only watched Weekend at Bernie's before they landed. The decor is a strange melange of late-1980s to early 1990s Mexican, with booths upholstered in a Victorian brocade next to bright mustard walls and paintings of ladies with thick necks and slightly crossed eyes. It's called "Casa Ramos" but the menu reads "Aztecas". What's that about? Their tag line is "The legacy of a tradition". What does that mean? The salsa was a marinara sauce. It was not bad but it also wasn't salsa. My husband and I both had enchiladas. They weren't bad. If I had been drunk, I would have probably liked them a lot. They were not spicy but there was Tabasco on the table. It's bland microwave Mexican made by friendly space aliens. The servers were nice. They disappeared but that was probably just to observe our human behavior. The beer was cold. The guacamole was slightly fermented. Will we go back? Naw. But it wasn't the worst space alien Mexican food we've ever had. read more

This used to be my favorite Mexican food in town years ago. It has been awhile so I gave it a try. I was so very disappointed. The chips tasted like the smell of bad oil. I ordered an enchilada. Nothing was good about it. Even the beans were icky. Don't like to leave reviews but for the price we pay for going out to eat these days. Just don't do it. read more

After starting a low carb diet this was my go to Mexican place in town. I could order the Carne Asada Y Mojo and have a great low carb meal. Tonight we go in and notice a new menu with jacked up prices. Same food. I ordered my Carne Asada Y Mojo, no rice and beans, salad instead, and no tortillas. I also ordered a Virgin mojito. After eating (I actually had to spit out part of my "steak" as it was so tough I couldn't chew it) we got our bill. $21 for approx 5 oz of skirt steak with six shrimp (yes I counted) and some mushrooms and onions floating in a "butter" sauce. No rice and beans so they gave me some tomatoes, lettuce and a little cheese instead. They charged me an extra $1.50 for this "salad" (even though I had no rice and beans). The kicker was the mojito without alcohol that they charged me $6.50 for. I paid extra for guacamole and sour cream as well. When I asked the waiter why I was charged a salad and for an alcoholic beverage he said he would remove the salad but the mojito takes a lot of extra work to make do they had to charge me $5 for it (it's simple syrup and some mint). Total they took off $3 I certainly hope it was worth it for their three dollars because I will not be back. **Review update**. I did receive the customer service I was looking for that night after writing this review. The management and even the CEO replied and offered to rectify the issue. This was all I was looking for, to be valued. I very much appreciate that they took the time to read my review, took it seriously and will try/tried to fix it. Thank you Azteca/Casa Romano and I will give your business another try! I do like that I can eat a good meal here without having to alter my need for a low carb lifestyle! ** read more

This is a spot my family always likes. Always great food and amazing DRINKS!!!!! Tonight my nephew was with us and he got a cheeseburger. OMG this was a cheeseburger not a small one either a larger size one and it was so nice to see read more

Went to Casa Ramos tonight. As usual food was very good. Service was horrible. Normsl staff that provide excellent service were not there. Waitress dropped menus, chips and salsa on our table more than 10 minutes after we arrived. It was another 20 minutes before she came back to get our drink orders. Our drinks were gone when the owner came out and took our order and made sure we had new drinks. Bus girl made sure we had salsa and chips. She brought out our order and refilled our drinks. Had to hold my credit card in the air until waitress asked if we were ready for our bill. (DUH). Left a $4 tip with note tip reflected service and it should go to bus girl as she was the only one who made sure we had what we needed. Another patron walked out without paying for his drink as no one came to get his food order after he had been there 45 minutes. I believe tips should reflect service. I understand service workers rely on tips as part of their salary, but if they want a 20% tip from me, they better provide SERVICE. I hope Victor sees this review. read more

Salsa was not spicy or flavorful at all. Place didn't seem very authentic. A little too mainstream.

Such a let down. The workers were more interested in the soccer game that was on TV. Taco salad was just blah. And my jalapeño margarita was just ok. Try to find another place. Sorry read more

I stop here with my coworker to get some food before driving to Portland. Naomi was great she took our order and kept checking up on us, the food was amazing as well. I will be back for sure. read more

Stopped by on my way home from Portland to get a quick bite to eat and catch the last part of the Seahawk game. The outside looks like any other mexican restaurant but was pleasantly surprised at the service and food. Had see this place for many years but just never had the time to stop. Tacos were fresh and drinks were good. Felt so good after the food and the hawks winning, decided to go shopping at the near by outlet mall and found some great deals. A nice break from the boring drive back to Seattle. read more

I went to this place because of the name. Hopeful to find the ever elusive Pollo Monterray that I found in Willows CA branch. As people are pointing out this is actually an Azteca restaurant. BUT they did have the dish I was looking for. The service was OK. The dish is better in CA....but I liked it nonetheless. Overall it was a nice pit stop coming home from Seattle. read more

Just your typical Americanized Mexican food. For those that don't know, it's a sister restaurant to the chain Azteca. Their to go boxes actually say Azteca haha. I stopped here on my way to Seattle for lunch. There was no hostess so I sat in the bar area. It was pretty packed. I sat myself down in the corner and waited...and waited. Poor waitress was working by herself. I waved but it would be another 5 minutes before she came over. She apologized multiple times since one of their servers didn't show up. Apparently they were trying to get both the hostess and bar back to help out...it was still slow...painfully slow. Luckily I had some work to do anyways. Needless to say I was there for an hour and a half. Took over 30 minutes to get lunch. About 15 to get my drink. Was really too bad, certainly couldn't be in a rush here. My waitress explained in trying to get assistance no one actually knew how to do anything like running credit cards, etc. Seems like there needs to be some further training done in case of "emergencies" like this. My macho burrito was pretty good overall. So were the chips and salsa. Not bad. Not great. Not sure I would return any time soon. read more

This is actually an Azteca... It's ok. Service a little slow, but clean and the food is okay. It will do if you're craving mexican. There is a happy hour special, but only available in the bar until 6:30pm. read more

Excellent food. Friendly staff. My wife and I have been coming here for decades. Never once had a negative experience. If you like shrimp order the camarones blancos-AMAZING!!! read more

Service is great but food is a different story. I ordered the Carne asada and never have I been so disappointed before. Carne asada was not seasoned at all. Husband got the fajita steak burrito and the tortilla it was wrapped in tasted as it had been microwaved to the extent where it was hardened. Not soft at all. Steak was also not seasoned within his fajita burrito and the majority was stuffed with rice and beans. Barely any veggies. This is definitely another commercialized Mexican restaurant with horrible food. If you want to see a vibrant setting and don't mind the quality of your food, feel free to go. This is not remotely close to any authentic flavor you would get from a smaller Mexican joint. Would have gave them only1 star but the service was good... read more

I think you lost a loyal customer today Casa Ramos. I asked for Pico De Gallo instead of Salsa and you charge me 1.50? Really? This is the kind of the thing that turns me off of a restaurant for good. I will travel down the road a few more miles and go to Plaza Jalisco from now on where they value me as a customer and dont mind giving me chunky "salsa" and dont charge me for it. read more

The food is consistently what you expect for Americanized Mexican food. Daily specials and a lounge. Recently renovated, with fresh paint and art inside. Nice, clean bathrooms as well, with nice-smelling hand soap. The service is good, parking is easy and plentiful. read more

Everything was very tasty! Great service, authentic, clean and fast!

I've been coming to this restaurant for special occasions since I was a kid. Took my kids for the first time tonight. It didn't disappoint. Plenty of food. Price is fair. Service was solid and attentive. Gave good suggestions on the menu. What I find incredible is, in 20+ years of sporadic patronage, I've never had a bad experience. The food meets and/or exceeds my memory's anticipation every time. This will be our go to in the area if we want to go out as a family. read more

I honestly didn't expect a lot out of it. Looks are deceiving... You really allow yourself to get used to other MexiAmerican restaurants to ruin you lol this place? Forget the rest even the house chips and salsa was bomb AF read more

I still don't love the margaritas here but I was jonesing and my regular spot is closed. Middle of the road carne asada tacos that cost 4 times as much as Lupe's across town. I do come here more often when I eat low carb because they are accommodating but tonight is just average food as usual. read more

I'm going to have to be honest. I was expecting this place to have mediocre food at a high price. When we ordered our food (two adults and two kids) we found that it was AWESOME. The free chips and salsa were good, the juices were good and our main courses were pretty damn good!!! We actually had some left over burrito that we were REALLY looking forward to eat later on and noticed that we left it there.... Heart breaking! Lol. This place is awesome, definitely recommended! read more

Salsa had a strong metallic taste, as if it sat in a can overlong. Pork carnitas fajitas were equally awful. Slightly orangeish sauce had same off flavor. The pork was not tender or flavorful at all. Nor was it hot. The only up sides were the sides. The quacamole was real and fresh as were the solid not slushy beans. Normally I would send such food back. But, I was tired and still had a few hours to travel after already travelling for a few hours. I just wanted out of there. I will not return. read more

I'm always very happy having lunch or dinner here. This restaurant has been remodeled maybe within the last year or so and it's absolutely beautiful inside and out. The waiters and waitresses are always very friendly and patient and never rude. The food is also very delicious and that's why I keep coming back. Good food, clean restaurant, and great staff. Highly recommend! read more

They have a really great variety of entrees to choose from. I didn't even look through the whole menu before I ended up ordering, I already had too many tempting options to choose from! They weren't frugal with the shrimp which pleased me, and they were more than happy to make a special order for me. The service on the other hand could have been better. He was nice enough but he kept forgetting things. It also took forever for him to check in on us after we finished. We were going to get dessert but by the time he finally came around to us we decided to just go home. They seem to have a lot of different drinks to choose from, I want to come back and get into some of those. Despite the service I will still come back next time I am craving mexican food. read more

Wow. What a great way to end a vacation day. The food was great. The portions were HUGE, and I am full! If you are in Centralia and want Mexican, then you won't find better than Casa Ramos. read more

Another Centralia institution. The best chips and salsa I've ever had. I sometimes fill up before my meal even arrives! The actual food is very good, although the portions seem a bit on the small side. read more

Food was amazing! The service could have been faster and more prompt but other than that their fajita enchilada and Danm that queso though was AMAZING!!! read more

Walked in around 3pm on a Thur, on my way back to Cali.. Cristi was very helpful and knowledgeable. She talked to me about the dishes and even the Mexican beer selection, which is pretty great (except they don't have Bohemia and it is still on the menu). Like, when can you ever find Bohemia, tho... Plus, this IS Washington. I ordered the happy hour steak tacos, modelled after 'street tacos' but they actually come in the regular corn tortillas and they don't have anything but meat in them, aren't served with lime or salsa and tasted more like chewy cubes of steak, not cooked enough b/c they were hard but mine were dryish...dunno, probably not enough chile/cumin, or just more authentic flavors... Chili relleno plate. The chili was cooked correctly, I think the batter was bland so it made the cheese flavor kind of get lost in the texture, wasn't crispy, definitely more on the soooofftt side... but they could have thrown a rich red Chili sauce, or enchilada sauce... Something to grab me more, plus they don't use Mexican Oaxaca cheese, so the flavor is probably what they mean by more tex-mex? I still ate it tho, on the road, driving, needed sustenance. Rice and beans, yummy presentation was cool, the shells that hold the sides etc. They could save on that and use one shell and fill it half and half with rice/beans. Those two should be touching, they go together like peanut butter and jelly. Especially one shell cuz the plate is just 11 bucks, you get a lot of food..even with the option to add a second relleno for little over $6. Also, if you ate here, and you disagree... I'm just a chili relleno snob. You have to forgive me. The absolute best part of my first time at Casa Ramos, was my server, Cristi. She had a great attitude and was professional and looked into my eyes when talking to me. She greeted me, checked on me and never once sat around, waiting on something, she stayed busy and was working the entire time, even with just two tables. I did not see her stop one minute. While, in contrast, I did hear (all the way from the bar area) the hostess complaining about wanting to go home ...Alll the way in the other room. She probably should not have expressed that so loudly but she looked young anyway and didn't really seem to care whether or not I went to the bar, because she didn't offer me a seat or ask me when I walked in. Cristi was on it, tho. The management should be happy to have her. Also. I really wish they didn't play bachata and reggaeton... This is a Mexican restaurant. Just saying. Worried me on some level concerning the authenticity of the food that I was about to enjoy. And if this is family owned, lose the hostess (NAOMI) she sits watching videos on her phone, I'm listening to her at this very moment as I type this..."sit wherever you want...") and you're paying her for nothing... Also.....Got to up the flavor, please up the chili and maybe fire roast send chillies or tomatoes for the salsa, and warm beans are a nice touch and also the warm chips! Hell, these 3 stars are for that and your top server......promote Cristi. She balances working hard with being personable and likeable and is fast and tidy. God I hope she's being paid for running BAR and SERVING at the same time. I get quality control but really..Lucky Casa Ramos. More decor, the place is a old school bus yellow with dim lighting. Hang some dried red corn or put up some damn Mexican flags, sombreros, chili peppers something for chrissakes and turn off the Prince Royale and Don Omar. K vivan las Rancheras!! If you wish to contact me about my comments here, Casa Ramos, I'm more than happy. I'm a real person and I'm in the industry, I know what I'm talking about and you do too. Thanks again and cuídense read more

We stopped for lunch on our way home. This was our first and last time to dine here. When we arrived so 1:30 on a Saturday the place was hopping which should be a good sign--right? After exploring the menu I was surprised at how expensive this place was. 3 tacos for $14. A burrito for $13. Wanted fajitas but wasn't willing to pay $20. I ordered the Macho burrito which was a large portion. After getting into the burrito I discovered the girth was due to a generous portion of rice with a scant amount of chicken. Disappointing. My son could only stomach one taco and he was done. I write this 5 hours later are and our stomachs still hurt. Don't make the same mistake we did and save your wallet and stomach some grief and keep driving. read more
