    I've been coming to this restaurant for many years, and my family still eats here almost every…read moreFriday. We have even held parties here and it is a great restaurant for a party as well. The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the space itself is cozy and charming. The food and drinks are consistently phenomenal. I've probably tried just about everything on the menu at this point, and not a single dish has ever disappointed. Even though I don't usually like salmon, theirs is prepared so well that I actually enjoy it. Some of my personal favorites are the birria tacos, tortilla soup, and the wet burrito. The drinks are just as impressive, with a secret sangria recipe that's always a hit. My go to is the frozen watermelon margarita, refreshing and delicious every time. As a longtime regular, I can confidently say that once you try La Casita, you'll be hooked and want to come back again and again.

No option to order side or sauce of sour cream on the menu so asked on note and did not get sour cream. French fries no salt. Also fyi not typical salsa. Ordered on Insta Cart / Uber Eats

    Some of their dishes are worth the hype! We made reservation for brunch at 11:30am on a Sunday and…read moreit was completely full. (don't attempt to walk in, place is small and PACKED!) We tried a bunch of stuff and the star was definitely the soft scrambled egg tostada, the masa pancakes and coffee tres leches cake. These are a must try! Good to try was also the fried oaxacan cheese but at $14 for 3 pieces, it's not worth a repeat order for me. These were skippable to be honest: mega thick bacon (just ok) home fries (meh) The chilaquiles (pork chorizo, salsa ranchera, crema, queso fresco, sunny up eggs) lacked flavor for a dish with so much going on. Service was pretty quick.

    First time eating in this neighborhood and area was cute! For food - we got the chips and guac,…read moreceviche, tuna, prawns, chicken milanesa & steak. Between 5 people - that wasn't too much food at all. I was mostly full after the meal. The ceviche, tuna and prawns split between 5 is basically one bite each. For the apps- the guac and tuna were my faves. The chicken and steak were much larger portions. Both were good but I liked the chicken milanesa more. It was fried perfectly and flavorful. Alright - now for the drinks. I wasn't particularly impressed by the cocktail menu. Mostly everything seemed on the sweeter side so I ordered a mezcal cocktail off menu and my one criteria for the drink was for it not to be too sweat. The bartender came back with a pink drink with a sugar rim. Basically a cosmo with mezcal - made me & my friends LOL. My overall review of the place is in between good and great. Fun atmosphere and good ambiance.

    The tacos here live up to the hype!…read more My friends and I came here for dinner on a weeknight. Around 6:30pm, it was easy for the four of us to snag a table in the back, near the back patio, but there is some seating in the front part of the restaurant as well. I ordered one of their mezcal cocktails with a Tajín rim (El Amante) which was yummy then we started with an order of chips and salsa, chips and guacamole and esquites. The esquites was fantastic, but we wished the guac was larger and came with more chips. For my entree, I ordered a tripa taco and a cecina taco. I cannot decide between a favorite because they were both so good. The tripa was crispy and tender in all the right places. I was worried about the cecina taco being too salty but that wasn't the case, it was perfection. We all appreciated how they served each taco with double corn tortillas, so they held up well. And of course, we couldn't leave without trying the churros. They were just the right size 2 people to share in my opinion but we were all pretty satisfied by then so we were ok splitting 4 ways. Our waiter was really funny and checked up on us regularly. The music here was also great (a lot of Bad Bunny), and the decor was on point. Good food and a great atmosphere!

    $4 tacos and $7-$10 drinks, prices reminiscent of a pre-inflation time. My group grubbed on…read moreeverything from grilled chicken, grilled shrimp, and al pastor tacos to pozole, rice and beans, and plenty of micheladas. Everything was top notch. There's a casual front area with high tables and stools, but if you want table service there is a seating area in the back, and even a backyard space for temperate seasons. We were only one of three parties there so our food came out fast and hot. I enjoyed the chicken taco most, the seasoning was just right and there was a slight smoky char on the meat that beat out the flavor of the shrimp taco. Pozole was spicy and hot, so satisfying on a cold day. They run happy hour and Taco Tuesday specials, so there are even better deals in store at this spot, a true neighborhood taqueria.

    I went on New Years Day as I was in the vicinity. Not many places were opened on this holiday so we…read morecalled in advance and found a spot that was which was KlanDestino. Once I heard that they served Argentinan food, I had to go try it out. Walking inside it was nicely decorated as it was New Year's Day. We were the only customers which we liked so the service was great. There were people doing take out or delivery service. We took note that if you decided to use cash it would cheaper. Good thing we carry cash with us. While looking over the menu, I had to ask what the waiter would recommend and he stated they are known for their Argentinan food. So, I ordered the Milanesa Napolitana which was Argentinan breaded chicken or beef, which was topped with tomato sauce and tomatoes, and mozzarella. It came with a salad or side - I got a side of Yuca Fries. The other entrees that we ordered for the table was the Klandestino Skirt Steak with Churrasco. The chimichurri sauce was banging and yummy. The Argentinan dish was very unique and I would definitely order it again. We were stuffed and couldn't eat another bite. I would come back if Im ever in Middle Village area again.
