    Overall: Americanized tacos, friendly staff Food: Tacos came with lettuce instead of street-style; quesadilla arrived with guacamole and sour cream. Salsa tasted bland and looked like it had just been pulled from a freezer. The main positive was that they don't skimp on the meat, which was a pleasant surprise. Service: Staff were friendly. Atmosphere & logistics: Limited seating -- not good for groups. Bottom line & tip: Not recommended for authentic Mexican; if you want something better than Del Taco, come solo or with one other and skip group outings.

    Three tacos

    Such a wonderful family-owned restaurant! The food is delicious, the service is friendly, and you can really feel the care and love they put into everything they do. It's a hidden gem that deserves so much more attention. If you're looking for a local place with great food and a welcoming atmosphere, definitely give them a try! Supporting small family businesses like this one is so important. Highly recommend!

    Single carne asada combo platter. Awesome!

    This place is awesome!! I was craving a crunchy taco and found them on Yelp. I got a combo platter and was blown away by how good it was. The carne asada has so much flavor. The presentation was great. But damn, it hit the spot. Well done !!

    Had to cut in half cuz we got smol appetites in the AM

    Found this amazing little hole in the wall breakfast spot while waiting for our car to be serviced. I've been craving a really good breakfast burrito for the past couple of weeks and Deli Mex did not disappoint !! The chorizo burrito was perfect and fat as fuck pro tip check in on yelp for free chips and dip :) the dip itself was very, very good. There's a sign in front of the cash register stating that all of their sauces are homemade. You can definitely taste the love and authenticity in every bite. Although there's not a lot of seating, it's very cozy and cute inside. The owner/manager/chef (?) was so sweet and accommodating he def made sure we had a good experience :) Will definitely be back even when we're not getting our car serviced lol

    Went off a recommendation and saw the great reviews. Order a carne asada burrito and person who takes your order is super nice and really want to give this 5 starts but just can't because I was let down by the burrito. I think it's because my expectations were so high because it's a good burrito it's just not an amazing burrito. I like a ton of meat in mine and didn't taste the meat as much as I'd like. Great place though and my order came with chips and salsa too

    Taco!

    Worth every bit of the weight just be patient. You'll have one of the best tacos with all these ingredients ! Fresher that fresh..we had the Carne Asada and chicken. They both are ideal. Skip Del taco ! Skip Taco Bell! Spend a little more money for a fabulous taco.

    Great family establishment. Food is amazing and service is on point. Best breakfast burritos in the SFV.

    Best breakfast burrito I have had in a very long time!!! Super fluffy eggs with big chunks of crispy (but not oily at all) bacon, delicious homemade salsas AND piping hot super tasty coffee!!! Tiny store front on Magnolia Blvd with street parking in front! The place is nothing fancy (though they were playing great jazz!!) but the taste of homemade food is worth the adventure. Plus, the folks working there just couldn't be nicer!!!

    Lovely spot for Mexican food with fun vibes!…read more I came for Sunday brunch/lunch with some friends. I made a reservation through Yelp a couple days beforehand and there was plenty of availability. The restaurant is located right off Ventura Blvd and has an attached parking garage in the basement which can be accessed via the parking lot behind the restaurant. There were plenty of spots available Sunday afternoon when I came. It's a bit hidden, but there is an elevator from the garage to the top level where the restaurant is located as well. We had two babies in strollers with us, so I requested a table with plenty of space nearby for the strollers. They seated us outside on their covered patio, and indeed, we had plenty of space. I peeked inside and there's also a nice lounge area with a beautiful flower wall as well as a proper dining area. When we arrived, there was a live DJ spinning tunes. I assume he's there during brunch hours, as he left around 3 pm when brunch ended. I started with a frozen lime margarita ($12). It was okay; it felt like it was only half frozen as the ice wasn't blended that well. For my main, I got the famous Anejo carne asada and shrimp plate for $40. Yes it was pricy, but the portion size was also huge! I was starving and somehow managed to finish the plate, but it'd be a great dish to share for two people with small appetites. I really enjoyed it as well. I asked for the steak to be cooked rare, and they didn't overcook it. Each bite was super tender and flavorful and paired well with the rice. Everyone else also enjoyed their dish. One friend got the wet chicken burrito for $15 and it was massive! Another got the veggie fajitas with steak added and really enjoyed her dish as well. Solid food all around. I would love to come back on a weekday and try their happy hour! Sipping on $5 margaritas and $6 sangrias sounds like my idea of a great time!

    A weekday lunch at Casa Vega with a buddy, so it was a low-risk proposition. While there were more…read morepeople at the bar than I expected to see, the restaurant overall was only about half full, and the staff easily kept up with everyone, providing attentive and friendly service from start to finish. As others have stated in detail, CV has been here for a long time, and entering is like going back in time. Even at lunch it's dark and mysterious, with muted lighting and the feel of bygone days. It's quite easy to forget the Summer sun and the bustle of the Valley while you're in here, making it also easy to get lost in conversation, and a pretty perfect place to have that lunchtime catch-up with friends. One thing I really like about Casa Vegas is that they have 2 kinds of tortilla chips: the ubiquitous corn chips and the far-less-common chips made from flour tortillas. These flour chips were a big thing in the late 1980's or early 90's, and a lot of restaurants had them -- but they disappeared for whatever reason, and CV is the only place I know that still has them. And they're great; crispy and more indulgent than traditional corn chips, and I find they have more flavor. They're automatically served with the table-side guacamole, but the waiter will bring them to you if you ask. And you should ask. As to the rest of the food, it's standard "American Mexican" food: tacos and burritos and enchiladas, tostadas and flautas and taquitos, along with plates of the usual things like steak or fajitas, ropa vieja and some seafood. They do have a few top shelf fillings available (shrimp and lobster, and a few higher cuts of steak), but for the most part you're getting the same kind of safe and unchallenging cuisine that convinced mid-century gringos that Mexican food was "okay." My buddy ordered 2 shredded beef tacos, which were nicely plated and generously portioned. I didn't taste them, but they looked very good and he enjoyed them quite a bit. I opted for the Mexican Caesar Salad with Sliced Steak. The lettuces were fresh, cool and crisp, and were nicely coated in a dressing that had a layered, homemade flavor. There were crushed tortilla chips instead of croutons for added crunch, and the steak was a lovely cut, served medium rare (as requested) and well-seasoned. In fact, the seasoning on the meat paired very well with the dressing, so the meat felt like a planned component rather than an extra item added to the side. It was a good salad, and just the right portion for lunch. So, while you won't be finding anything revelatory on the menu, you will be eating well-prepared, tasty food that delivers on a promise made long ago and kept all these years later by people proudly doing what they do as well as it can be done.

    Casa Vega has been on my "legendary" list for a long time. After finally visiting, I'd say it was…read moremore of a one-time experience for me. Let's start with logistics: parking is valet only unless you manage to find street parking on very busy Ventura Blvd. When we arrived, we stood waiting for a bit without being acknowledged. When the hostess came over, there wasn't even a simple "hello," just "How many?" and "Do you have a reservation?" It's a small detail, but hospitality starts with a greeting. The ambience is undeniably cool -- dark, classic, very old-school LA. It has character. Food-wise, it was inconsistent. The albondigas soup leaned salty -- maybe it had reduced over time, maybe just my taste preference. The fajitas were actually the opposite: pretty bland. On the plus side, they weren't overcooked, which is common at many places. The cuts were large, not overloaded with onions (which I appreciated), but also not much chicken. The guacamole had a slight sour note. Not terrible, but enough to question how fresh it was. Our server, however, was great. Attentive, professional, and the highlight of the experience. The menu font is quite small, which makes it difficult to read in the dim lighting. And the payment terminal comes with a tip percentage already selected -- that always feels a bit uncomfortable. I'm glad I checked it off my list, but I wouldn't go out of my way to return or recommend it strongly. It feels like Casa Vega survives mostly on nostalgia and reputation rather than today's execution.

Our food came to our table I'd say within 10-15 minutes of ordering. I honestly could have shared mine.
