Casita Mexicana was an unexpected delight in Cologne with a nice vibe and a lively crowd. Cactus is a rarity on many menus in the U.S. but it was well-prepared and available in their dishes. This review is really 4.5 stars and only thing preventing the full 5 stars. Is the use of feta cheese instead of the Mexican cheeses. It gave more of an odd flavor than anything else. Overall, a fun and flavorful night.

We have tried many "Mexican" restaurants in Germany and this is -- by far -- the best Mexican restaurant. We really miss Mexican food being that we're from California and you can tell by the dishes that this is true Mexican cuisine. The owners are from Mexico and if you want to level up your spice to your dish they have other spicer sauces like habanero which is difficult to find in Germany. They decorated really well and have huge painted murals and have Spanish music playing while dining, we will absolutely return the next time we're in Köln.

This place is over-rated on Yelp! We have yet to find a…read moregreat Mexican restaurant in Düsseldorf. We started with the guacamole and chips. The guac was actually not bad and made fresh. It could have used some diced tomatoes and jalapeño though. It was the best item the restaurant has to offer. The chips were lacking flavor. I ordered a chicken burrito. It was mostly shredded iceberg lettuce. It had some chicken, peppers and a few pieces of corn and pinto beans. Very ordinary but edible. My wife ordered tacos. Four of the smallest tacos I have seen were smothered with diced onions. She was also less than impressed. Casita Mexicana is just another average restaurant that tries their best, but just serves the typical "Euro-Mex" food. It just isn't the same as good Mexican food from the Southwestern U.S. (Or Mexico, of course). There were only two other couples in the restaurant, yet the girl sat us in the back, right next to the toilet. Didn't realize it until I was eating and started smelling it. Poor decision by the staff.

Here, you will not get the whole variety of the Mexican kitchen either. But, you'll be served authentic, real tasty snacks and bar food (tacos, quesadillas, burritos etc.) of superb quality. The typical Tex-Mex cumin taste is barely noticeable, which I prefer. All other ingredients are fresh, well balanced and dips are homemade. Spices are used up to a point where you can still enjoy the original flavor with a scent of sweat on your forehead, but without ruining your taste buds. And, not to forget: this is a Mexican bar! So, there is a solid selection of Mexican and Spanish beers (including non-alcoholic beers) as well as a whole variety of different tequilas (no non-alcoholic ;) ). This unobtrusive place won my heart in a beat. I'll be back soon for round two :))

This was a good Mexican on the ring…read more I recall coming here many times when I craved chicken fajitas. They were always closer to the Mexican and tex mex I was used to back in the states. The food quality and authenticity seemed to be better here than most Mexican restaurants in Germany as a whole. It was quite hard to find decent Mexican food while living here for 3 years, much harder than I would have thought. At least this place would help subside the craving for it for a while.

The ordering station, the names of the food options, it was like Chipotle had been transplanted to Germany. I think the owner is American and he/she saw and opportunity and grabbed it. I was PUMPED because I love Mexican food and haven't had good Mexican in the last 5 months of living in Europe. I legit clapped with glee when I walked inside. I was that excited. I ordered a burrito bowl with brown rice, black beans, corn salsa, pico, barbacoa, sour cream, and cheese. Plus a side of tortilla chips. Pricey, but dang. So, so good. Worth it. Wish they would have channeled their Qdoba vibes by offering free guac, but I'll take good Mexican food when I can. The ingredients seemed fresh and the place was hoppin' as business folks came in for their lunch breaks.

If you are craving Mexican food while in Germany this is a good spot but it won't be the best Mexican food you ever had. More like a Tex-Mex place. The margarita left something to be desired as well- kind of tasted like one I would attempt to make at home and not one that you would receive at a Mexican restaurant. I honestly didn't even expect to see a Mexican restaurant here so it was a great surprise.

We had the flautas, burritos and enchiladas and all of it was decent. The best part about this place was the drink and the ambience. We always had a such fun and especially for large groups too. They had yes and chips and dips in their entrées weren't bad either.

Being a person who LOVES Mexican food and have been experimenting with cooking it my whole life,…read moreBurritoRico was a real disappointment. I was really hoping to find my fix in Bonn, but alas, I will have to keep searching. My partner ordered the tacos. The flavors went well together, but the meat was dry and the corn tortillas were not heated on a grill. The tortillas fell apart pretty much immediately so he was left eating tacos with a fork. I ordered the vegetable burrito and again, it was very over cooked and pretty flavorless to add. The beans seemed like they'd been cooking for days and had been burnt. Too much rice and too little flavor. We also got the nachos to see what they were like and it was just laughable. It was room temperature ballpark nacho cheese (runny, unnatural, yellow stuff) on top of store bought tortilla chips. The toppings were sparse and you only got about 1/2 a basket eaten before your chips were completely dry. Cold nachos? I could not understand. The redeeming traits were a nice interior and a very tasty yet tiny margarita. For the €30 that we spent at BurritoRico, I would rather stay home and make Mexican food with actual flavor.

Tasted alright but not a culinary dinner. Nice were the cilantro and pomegranate toppings. Self Service place. Everyone was very nice though. Sadly there is nothing on the menu for your sweet tooth. It's a nice and cosy place. Feels very like in San Francisco. I would recommend it for a quick lunch or dinner. Rather than for staying there the whole evening.

I was floored...it looked like a few years of high school Spanish would finally come in handy. The staff here clearly isn't "Mexican", but they sure gave the theme a good effort. I don't really know why I do it, but whenever I'm in Europe, I feel the need to try what the locals call "Mexican Food". It's never great, but it's always an adventure (sorry, Greg). Starved, after a long day of work, exhibiting at the messe, my buddy suggested that we get an appetizer. I assumed he meant kölsch (the local beer), but in reality, he wanted some nachos. I had warned him, this won't be like the nachos back home, but he responded "C'mon Ivan, how could they screw up nachos?" Chips like a bizarre cardboard, salsa like a cold tomato sauce and a greasy mess of cheese slathered all over it...yeah, maybe I just needed another beer. I followed up the nachos with some "Tacos Roastbeef". When they arrived, I was dumbfounded as there was no way to pick these tacos up. The bottom (side) of the taco was soaking in a mix of German enchilada sauce and beans--there was just no way. I ended up trying to gut it out with my fork. I desperately needed some hot sauce, but the fact is, paired with a Corona, this may have been one of the best "Mexican" meals I've ever had in Europe. _______________ Notes: In the heart of downtown (the city center), on Heumarkt...there is a lot to see here in regards to street performers, magicians and general people watching.
