We came here for a late weekend lunch and had a great experience. Service was friendly and speedy, from us getting seated to having our orders taken to getting our food to getting the check. I got the shrimp fajitas lunch special and it was delicious and the perfectly sized portion for lunch. It was cooked perfectly in a delicious sauce and came with fajita veggies, refried beans, rice, and salad. We were also given free chips and salsa for the table upon sitting down. I would definitely come back here again to try their other menu items! read more

Oh my god, this was an absolute delight of a dining experience. The portions are huge, the food is out of this world, and the staff is so amazing. read more

Great service and atmosphere. Prices are reasonable. Margaritas are SLAMMIN! The food? Mediocre- not bad, just not anything to write home about. All in all a pleasant experience, but nothing special. read more

Ordered to go. The hostess never looked up at me from her drawing lines in her seating chart. She didn't stop drawing until she was done and then proceeded to go in the back to see if my order was ready. Very odd. Other than that the food was amazing. The birria tacos were delicious. The street corn was very citrusy but still good and the shrimp tacos were nice. Order came with chips and salsa as well. The place was packed and I can see why. read more

Casa Real Mexican restaurant - Tacos De Birria & Street Corn & Shrimp Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Colchester, Vermont

I've eaten out here many times before and had no complaints. I had a horrible experience eating there last evening. The server seemed like she was in training which isn't a problem. However, it's not clear how well her English is. Most of the servers are bilingual. My husband is as well and previous times he would place our orders in Spanish. Last evening I was with a friend, neither of us speak Spanish. - it was difficult to communicate our orders and our questions to our wait staff - the food wasn't brought to our table for at least 40 min. - my friends meal was uneditable as well as mine. I ordered one of the steak options. I was unable to cut it with a steak knife let alone chew it. I was starving so I did eat the rice, runny refried beans and lettuce. They took my friends meal off of the bill and compensated some of mine. Very disappointing experience compared to all of my previous experiences with this place. read more

Visiting here this week and decided to try this restaurant. It was wonderful. I had plate of 3 tacos and they were so large and delicious. Hubby had nachos supremeos and they were terrific with well seasoned tender beef. Eduardo was our server and he was excellent also. Keep up the great work. read more

Very nice Mexican Restaurant in Westbrook. Service is impeccable. Very friendly & attentive. Food is very delicious. Mire than we could eat. They even have a cart that makes fresh guacamole right in front of you. That in it's self is worth the trip. This is a must go! Drinks A+! read more

Great variety, great prices, quick and friendly service. Burritos are MASSIVE. Margs are good (is it a mix? probably but a solid one). This place gets busy for a reason. read more

Waiting, waiting, waiting. Water refills take a life time. Don't even bother with asking, you'll get better service by doing it yourself. Biriaa tacos suck. Salsa sucks, chips suck, and as you know, the service sucks too. You walk into the restaurant, it looks pretty nice to your left, but the waiter will always take you the other way. Then you enter "Family Row", filled with kids and a more cramped seating arrangement. Don't bother with this place, you want Mexican? Try chilli's. read more

Casa Real Mexican restaurant - Water - Mexican Near Me - Colchester, Vermont

Funny story. We were crossing the border and the agent is the one who suggested this restaurant! We were talking about our plans for the day and we had no idea where to go for dinner and he instantly thought of this place. I am so glad he did. We were a big group (11) and this place had no issues seating us last minute. The menu has so many options and everything looks good. The service is very fast and friendly. I got the Mexican street corn as an entree and it could've well been a meal! It was such a generous portion. It was delicious, warm and seasoned and tangy. The star of the show was the birria tacos, they were excellent. Generously stuffed and flavourful with cheese and meat in every bite. I had to take one of them home since I was already so full from the corn. For the price it is well worth the quality, quantity, and excellent service. read more

Food is really good, but save your wallet and DON'T order any MIXED DRINKS. i had a half pitcher of margaritas and it sucked. There was hardly any tequila, and my wife had a daiquiri and she said she wondered if they forgot the rum read more

The food is amazing. I haven't tried everything on the menu yet. But when I do, I'll make a post about that and add pictures, the service is incredible as well. And the bar looks pretty well stocked. Which I do not drink so I could tell you how well the drinks are. But everything I experienced. There is absolutely amazing. Not quite as good as what you get in some of the small villages in Mexico. But for this side of the border and this far North, this place is absolutely. Perfect read more

If you really like Mexican food, you might be disappointed. Ordered street corn, birria tacos, and chicken fajitas. The street corn was not the typical boiled cob, they may have even fried it. It was not fresh, so it was a bit mushy and I couldn't taste the corn itself. Just loaded with sauces on top. The birria tacos had a good portion of meat, but the shells were not grilled enough and became soggy quickly. The chicken fajitas did not have much flavor and the cooked tomatoes released a lot of water onto the plate. It came out faster than I've ever seen, which is great, but I would have preferred to wait 5-10 minutes longer for fresh food. Casa Real has so much potential, I just don't know if they are equipped to serve fresh food on a busy night. read more

Wow, this place is awesome. The food is fresh and the portions are huge. I would highly recommend Casa Real, their staff is very friendly.

Delicious food, very friendly staff. The prices are the best in the area. Huge portions. Have been 5 times, haven't been disappointed yet. Lots of seating, very clean. read more

Birras tacos meat is tender and heavy portion of meat in the tacos. Corn tortillas grilled perfect. Fresh onion and lime on the side. Sorry didn't try the dipping sauce due to dietary restrictions. Fresh side of guacamole which was a huge portion, house sales great mix of flavors and chips crispy. Door Dash driver said this is the best Mexican restaurant in town and completely agree. The birra tacos were some of the best on the east coast. Highly recommend this spot! read more

Great place to get flavorful Mexican food at a great price. The servings are insanely big!! They always last me about 2-3 meals. The service I'd say is pretty quick, it helps that the chips and salsa hold me over. Great place read more

Casa Real Mexican restaurant - Chicken Fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Colchester, Vermont

As a recent transplant from San Diego, I am finding that it is very difficult to satisfy my intense craving for good Mexican food. I've searched near and far. After a year and a few weeks, I've finally found the spot! Good, solid Mexican food! Not Mexico good or San Diego good, but quite possibly the best Mexican food to be found in Vermont. And a whole carafe of salsa. Thank you, Casa Real! I am SO thankful to have found you! read more

Decent Mexican food. Large menu - with pictures which always helps me understand what I'm ordering, lol. But not as authentic small batch, mom and pop places (think Sysco to table not farm to table). Many things taste similar - but well-cooked and as advertised. Fast and attentive service and great pricing. Great beer and alcohol selection too. Ideal for a work day lunch spot or quick casual dinner. read more

This place was pretty great! Our server was very kind and attentive! Food was great, though the portions can be a little big! It's a nice change of typical eatery's in VT. Really enjoyed it! Servers were making fresh guacamole in front of us! Ambiance is good! Would come again for sure! read more

Authentic Mexican food here. Margaritas are fantastic. Fresh made chips and salsa are always the first thing on your table. We've never had a bad experience here. read more

I sat at the bar, service was quick as was the food coming from the kitchen. Ordered a steak burrito and it was huge and had a smoked taste that I enjoyed. read more

The waitperson was awesome and very accommodating (like they had heard it before) when I said my dish was less than appetizing. My enchiladas only had dry chicken inside with a drizzle of cheese on top. The spanish rice was good. After we sent my dish back to the kitchen and I ordered a beef taco salad the fried tortilla shell was small and over-cooked. The shell was filled mostly with ground beef and tasteless. I only ate 1/3 of it. Oh, no beans with either of our meals. The flan was very good but small portion. read more

We came in for lunch, and the specials were delicious and such a great price! The service was great as well.

The service was a little slow when we first arrived to order drinks, but a server dropped chips and salsa off quickly at the table. They might have been changing shifts, not sure. The place was nice, more modern. The food was excellent. We ordered tacos, burritos and sides of rice. The portions were big. The beer was ice cold. I would highly recommend it! read more

I personally like this restaurant, food is on point . Service fast and friendly And the price well it's 2024 over priced like everywhere else read more

Casa Real Mexican restaurant - Amazing Mexican food ! Best spot in the area - Mexican Near Me - Colchester, Vermont

Good food, good service, inside or out. The amount of food was so much. A great place for great food.

Casa Real is, without a doubt, my favorite Mexican restaurant. My boyfriend and I have been probably a dozen times and brought friends and family. We are always promptly seated (I saw another reviewer complain that they were seated at a table when there was a booth free: fun fact, you can just ask for a booth and they'll give it to you!) The menu is massive and everything I've tried has been AMAZING. The portions are HUGE and the prices are the most affordable I've seen in Vermont. They also give you two delicious, complimentary baskets of chips and salsa to start. Casa real is open till 10:00pm, much later than most other restaurants in the area. TLDR: I love Casa Real and could not recommend it more! read more

It was fine - the kids wanted Mexican, so we chose this spot. There was a booth free, but we were seated in the middle of the room. We ordered the fresh guac, but it came to us (not table-side, as advertised), but handed to us after our entrees already came. We ordered horchata - never received it, but we were charged for it. We enjoyed the chips and salsa. Everyone's entrees were mid. The beans were really good, while the rice was hard. I don't think we'd come back, but it was fine. read more

best place I've been in years and they sing birthday to u it's amazing And the service was amazing

The chicken wings were very good. The chip and salsa was good wish they had white sauce. The service was great. Very nice place.

Wanted to love this place, but sadly the food was very disappointing with little to no flavor and two people in our party became sick the night and morning after our dinner there. Maybe with some improvements this place could be great! read more

"Take-Out" of Tacos was disappointing at best. At Casa Real restaurant, First of all, "Take-Out " of Tacos means that the customer assembles the tacos !!!! In all honesty, l would have had better tacos had l assembled them from home from a kit you buy at the local grocery store. Secondly, the tacos did not taste Mexican , the seasoning was "lacking", as we enjoyed Mexican Tacos in California when we lived there. Thirdly, the sour cream allowance was minimal. Although, "Take-Out" at Casa Real Mexican Restaurant was less than satisfactory, the restaurant was pleasing in terms of ambiance. I saw a lot of young families with children entering this restaurant. The service exchange was pleasant, so this and the ( two) above indicated some good signs about Casa Real Mexican Restaurant . read more

This was our second time at Casa Real. It's exciting to have another Mexican restaurant in the area, although it doesn't serve as authentic or true Mexican (to us). The waitstaff is abundant and friendly, but not super attentive. They're mostly around in the beginning to get your order(s) and then there to serve the food or provide the bill. If you know you'll want water and napkins ask at the beginning because they won't offer. Alcoholic beverages are decently priced, but wouldn't recommend the pina colada. Margarita and mojito were better. The first time we got the birria tacos (delish) and the chicken chimichanga (mediocre, bland). This time around we got the Yolanda's Enchiladas (chicken enchiladas) with both green and red sauces, and the Molcajete. Both were good. Each time the service has been pretty quick, the drinks come out very quickly followed by the meal. I'd definitely go back, again, but not necessarily a "YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS PLACE!" Giving a 4 out of 5 because a three felt too low... but really a 3.5. read more

In a word, overhyped. I ordered a Carne Asada and it was a terrible, tough, dry, gristly cut. Rice and beans were fine, but I would hardly call this an authentic restaurant? Service was courteous. There was a 45 minute wait at 5pm on a Saturday. read more

We were enthusiastic about trying this restaurant. Things went wrong from the start. Two glasses of wine ordered - both glasses were dirty. The glasses were small, 2/3 filled, for $9+. We canceled & went for water. When our orders arrived, 3 were correct. We waited for the 4th to be swapped for the correct item. All of the food was mediocre, but the Taco Fajita Salad was particularly bad. It was highlighted in the menu. The contents of the flour tortilla bowl were floating in an orange colored grease. Everything was soggy. Simply not edible. Very disappointing. We won't return. read more

Best birria tacos around. The service was amazing and quick! Excellent portion size, enough to have lunch and save some for dinner later.

Just go. Order the birria tacos and a jalapeño margarita. I've heard the burrito California is good too-so cheesy and meaty. The service was good, the chips and salsa were tasty too. We can't wait to go back! read more

I ordered takeout online with the "foodbooking" link that comes up when you Google this restaurant. Food was ready at my requested time and handoff was friendly. We tried 3 al pastor tacos plus the dinner special, which includes 1 chalupa, 1 chile relleno, 1 beef taco, 1 enchilada, and 1 beef burrito, plus rice and beans. The al pastor was flavorful and included grilled pineapple - yum. The dinner special was portioned generously and was a great way to try several items, although I would have liked the options for meats other than beef. We also got guacamole as an appetizer - excellent. Super fresh with chunks of tomato and onion. Spice level on everything was what you'd expect for Vermont, but it's nothing you can't improve with hot sauce. I arrived for pickup at 4:00 on a Saturday and the parking lot was packed. Lobby was full of parties waiting to be seated. Really excited to sample more items from their extensive menu. So happy to have a real Mexican place in the area! read more

Best Mexican food I've had in VT! Fabulous service, eclipsed only by the stunning dishes. I am so happy that they have more than one location. If you can't make it to Colchester, their location in Williston (Casa Grande) is also delightful. Can't wait to visit their Barre location! read more
