Good Mexican food at good prices. The staff are friendly and the food comes out quickly. We have been there several times and only once had sub par food: our fajitas tasted as if they were left over and rewarmed so they had a kind of refrigerator taste to them. Oh, sometimes the guacamole is dark in color but some lime juice will help prevent that. Otsego seriously needs greater variety in eateries, among other things. It's bad enough this town is virtually dead so far as ANYthing to do or decent places to eat. Casa Real is a welcomed addition to the community. Maybe next, we can get a bookstore, or something other than Meijer and Wal-Mart. EDIT: My wife and I stopped in for what we thought would be another good meal. I ordered ground beer enchiladas and they came with pieces of chicken in them. The waiter said. "Oh, the other ones will be just beef." I asked him how he could be sure because I had not cut into them yet. He said "Well, the meat all sits next to each other and when they make them sometimes the meats get mixed." I told him I didn't want them and he took the plate away. My wife and I went to speak to the woman at the counter, who had always been pleasant to us in the past, and told her about the issue. She said the same thing as the waiter had told us. I said that was cross contamination; what if someone is allergic to chicken or see seafood? She said well they get really busy and sometimes the other meats can get dropped into an order. I told her I had worked in several restaraunts in the past, one of which was a Mexican restaraunt, and we always made certain we weren't cross contaminating food so no one ended up with an allergic reaction. She rolled her eyes at me and sighed sarcastically "I'll tell them in the kitchen." We won't be going back there. read more

My S/O and I eat here all the time. The customer service is good the food is even better. I order a meal a certain way and I have never had to send my food back to the kitchen, they get it right the first time. I recommend the Molcajete. And as always my food was steaming hot and flavorful. We love Casa Real. read more

Casa Real - The Molcajete - Mexican Near Me - Otsego, Michigan

See all

We have passed by here several times on our way to Grand Haven from Richland and decided to give it a try today. We were there about 4:30 on a Saturday and it was fairly quiet. It was a beautiful day so we took advantage of their outside seating. Immediately after we sat down we had a plate of chips and salsa in front of us. Our server (wish I got his name) was very attentive. The food arrived quickly, was generous in proportion, and delicious! I am from Michigan, so I can't vouch for the authenticity, but we ordered a variety of dishes (family of 4) and all were good. We drove by a little later (about 6:30) and the parking lot was packed. Hopefully the service is as good when they are busy. We will try again! read more

Love this place! Good food. Friendly service. The Fajita Burrito was excellent! (I ordered mine with chicken.) The queso is also very good. Portions are VERY generous. read more

We ate at Casa Real today..It was NASTY! we ordered the Grande Burrito, I had beef my husband chicken..It was Horrible, cold in the center,and the meat and beans had been made "LIQUID" like baby food..nasty, slimy ,and then covered with a red and white sauce..When I called our server over he didn't offer us any thing else or even say he was sorry we were not pleased.WE WONT BE BACK!! It was totally disgusting..Don't waste your time here. The place was dirty too...sweep and wash your floor!!! read more

I read all the reviews before going here and thought eh it is about 50/50, so I went. MISTAKE!!! Save your money and go to TacoBell, at least there you know it is fresh. Service was good, but as soon as you get your drink there are at least 3 bus boys ready to pounce at your table. I ordered the quest ( which was just watered down velveeta quest blanco ) I also ordered combo 15 which is a chalupa, a crunchy taco and a pablano pepper. Ok so the taco was soggy, the chalupa was a tostada covered in re fried beans and a half a pound of lettuce ( a chalupa is something you are suppose to hold ) and the pablano pepper was suppose to be dreadged in egg and a batter and deep fried. Nope it was a pablano pepper covered in refried beans and a half a pound of lettuce. GROSS read more

Great food. Great service. Zero complaints. I can't understand why anyone else wouldn't like this place. Had the seafood chimichanga.

My husband and I love this restaurant. The food is always good and our servers are always amazing. Gave 4 stars because the manager,or whatever she is,is not a friendly person at all! She never smiles and throws dirty looks all over the place. The one server we had that was terrible,we complained to her and she blew us off. We come out about once a month anymore. She just puts a bad vibe in the place. read more

Have been coming here since they opened. The Mexican pizza is the best :-) large shrimp, steak and chicken all mixed on a large flour tortilla smothered with cheese and sauteed onions and peppers then topped with second tortilla to create best pizza ever!!!! :-) Can have drinks now as well read more

Flavorless ground beef, dull tasteless salsa, brown guacamole, non-existent customer service. I am from Southern California, I lived 15 minutes from Mexico, I know what Mexican food is supposed to taste like, this wasn't it by a long shot. I would rather go to Taco Bell than this place. read more

I have worked in restaurants half of my life and that being said, I am usually very understanding. This experience held no reason for my being understanding. The food arrived 2 minutes after we ordered it. This is not good and you know this if you have ever worked in the food industry. The food was very under-seasoned. My taco salad was not the right order either, but I ate it and survived. They closed at 10 pm. We walked out, tipping generously for no reason, and they basically told us to eff off as we left at 10:02. I will not be back and I was soooooo excited for this place. We live right down the street, told our server this was our first time here and we were extra excited, and then left feeling kicked out with a gross taste (literally) in our mouths. read more

Everything arrived within one or two minutes of ordering. I like quick service, but it was so fast that everything had to be prepared ahead. Not fresh at all and the food tastes like it. My wife had a cheese enchilada and didn't finish it...the cheese was very odd tasting. I had very bland tamales. We won't waste our money here again. read more

Don't call an order into this place. They forgot a lot of our food and would not reimburse our money. Food was mediocre and the customer service was poor. read more

Great burritos! I feel the price is on the mark I would recommend this place to a friend . They don't post there hours online so sometimes it's just easier to go to Taco Bell ! read more

Cinco de Mayo visit. VERY busy. Seated in 10 minutes, chips & salsa as we were seated! Drinks in minutes. Delicious Margaritas. Hubby had a combo, I had carne asada, enough to take some home! Hot food, authentic taste! We will be back. read more

We arrived on a Sunday, late afternoon. They were not busy. We were seated at a booth across from a long table celebrating a family birthday. There were 3 children ranging in ages of apx. 4-8. When entering the restaurant the first thing I heard were children screeching and running around the entire dining room. The manager ignored the situation and never addressed the issue. She sat mostly at the front desk reading. Our waitress was much less than attentive. The food came out separately, and COLD, and tasteless. I will not be back and would NEVER recommend. read more

Poor food. Wrong order of food. Margaritas broader line. Will never go back. Salsa better from the store. Waiter not in English.

Decent Mexican restaurant for the area. Atmosphere is pretty common for most Mexican places I've been to. Nothing astounding or poor quality here. read more

Food was edible but that's the best I can say about it. My burrito was watery and didn't have much flavor to it. I'm not sure why the call it a "bar and grill" when there's no bar. Also why is there a mounted elk head on the wall at a "Mexican restaurant"? read more

Good service, tasty food. Love the pollo Toluca (if you like chorizo). Friendly wait staff, nice outdoor seating

My favorite Mexican place locally and customer service is excellent. The large restraunt is roomy for groups of people and it is kid friendly in a casual relaxed enviroment. read more

Friendly Staff and great service. Food was fresh. I had trouble ordering food because of my diet restrictions and when I got my plate all I could think was I'm going to need a box to take this entire plate of food home. The prices are average prices and the food tasted good read more

Reasonable prices,authentic Mexican ,good fast service I like the Decour. We went on a Sunday and it was a little slow so that was good for us read more

Best Mexican food in Michigan. Finally some fantastic guacamole. Delicious chimichanga. Waitstaff is very competent and fast. Don't have to wait long for fresh, hot, and quality ingredients. Best lunch in plainwell hands down. Sabes que? Go to Casa Real!!! read more

My husband and I love Casa Real! We get take-out from there every Friday night. Our favorite is the steak tacos.

Nice place to eat if you want a step up from Taco Bell. Not the greatest but not the worst. You get what you pay for here.

This is a good choice for good tex-mex food for a good price, with generous portions, served by friendly staff and made amazingly quickly. I am giving it five stars due to it's great value. read more

Great service. Friendly. Building was cold. Felt like a high school cafeteria.

This is the best Mexican restaurant. Great food, large quantities. Fast service. Great prices. If you love Mexican food this is a great place. read more

The service has been fantastic every time we have been there (over 10 times). Chips and salsa follow you to your seat. The chips are warm and the salsa is tasty but mild. There are two bottles of hot sauce available on every table to spice it up if desired. The food does arrive VERY quickly after you place the order which means that most of the food already prepared but I have food allergy issues so my orders are always different than what is on the menu. Every time they have arrived as ordered and just as timely as my wife's menu items. The food is very tasty but I would not call it authentic (we have been to Mexico several times) but anyone that says Taco Bell is a better choice is out of their mind. Fast, inexpensive, large portions and wonderful service from a very friendly staff. Outdoor seating is available. read more

Went here for the first time this last Saturday. I'm a fan! The service was fast and friendly. We got our food less than 10 minutes after ordering. Let me tell you, the food was fantastic! My daughter needed to go to a Mexican restaurant for a Spanish class assignment. I'm glad we chose this place. I can't wait to go back! read more

This place is great!!! Good food every time we go there. The service is good as well. The fajitas are more than one can eat also the burrito California is more than one person can eat. Both dishes are my favorites best bang for your buck as well. I would recommend this place to anyone. read more

One of best restaurants in area they are fast the food is good and service is even better the fajitas are their best meal , their beans and rice is excellent read more

Great burritos . just wish they would cover up the ugly florescent lights and maybe get something dim so bright in there but nice wall covering just get rid of the lights and you could never tell that it used to be a laundry mat.lol read more

Great use for an old laundromat!! And the salsa is really good..fresh and free with meal. I hate when places charge for chips and salsa. I'm glad I live right down the street! read more

Nice and clean, friendly staff. Everything was freshly made. Rice was fluffy and flavorful, refried beans were yummy as well as the complementary chips and fresh salsa. read more

This is a great place to get a solid meal. The Burrito California w/steak is amazing and HUGE. You definitely get your money's worth here. I highly recommend getting the cheese sauce along with your chips and salsa at the beginning of your meal. SO GOOD!! The food comes out at lightning speed and is very affordable. The waitstaff could be friendlier, but sometimes I think their tone seems off due the language/culture differences. Never straight up rude, but not super friendly like some places. It doesn't hold me from going back though. YUM. read more

Not one I'd recommend to people. Flavors were ok, but the almost instant delivery guarantees the food is stacked up ready to go well before anything is asked for by a customer. Ordered the Chimichanga special was charged full price, a minor mistake if the place was busy, they were very slow at this lunch setting. I guess the lack of covers at noon should have been a red flag. read more

Their parking lot is always packed, so Four of us went to eat here, and 3 of us left half our food on the plate, refusing to eat anymore because it was so horrible. All our plates had lukewarm food, 1 of us sent our order back because it not being right, and I didnt get my chalupa, unless they think a tostada is a chalupa. And it was so poorly spiced, that Taco Bell will seem like a real mexican food experience. I wont be back. If you folks think this is good food, I feel sorry for you. Not worth the money or time read more

Awesome food! We have ate here since it opened, never walked away hungry or disappointed. We also order out always quick and fresh.
