A smaller restaurant there is seating for approximately 8 different parties up to six. No outdoor seating. Definitely recommend. Will see you there. Happy eating!!

We arrived on Thursday night around 8 pm, and the parking was hit or miss. I had to circle the…read moreblock to find a spot, but it was pretty close once I did. I noticed the ice cream/yogurt spot nearby was hopping. There was a person asking for change outside the front door. We were greeted by an enthusiastic host and seated immediately at a booth up front. The server came by within seconds and brought us water and place settings. We decided to get the chips and salsa for an appetizer and a pair of melting chimichangas for entrees. I can't resist some chorizo and steak. My partner got the chimichanga without chorizo and with chicken. The ambiance was colorful with beautifully painted murals on each wall, and the atmosphere was undeniably loud. There were lots of patrons. The place was packed, even at the bar, so your mileage may vary. We received our orders within minutes of each other, so there wasn't much of a wait time. The chips and salsa were homemade, fresh, warm, and delicious (muy rico). Same for the entrees; exactly what I want in a Mexican food restaurant. The chorizo and steak were well-cooked, seasoned, and chopped finely, but not ground. I was in heaven with that chimichanga. We had to take home leftovers. The next night, heated in the oven at 325 for 30 minutes, they were similarly excellent. The night ended without dessert, sadly (too full). However, the server was quick and efficient, and he was always around to fill water and bring anything we needed throughout the meal. Great experience overall. We will definitely return here whenever we have a hankering for some good Mexican food at reasonable prices. I can recommend this place to anyone who appreciates hearty and filling Mexican food.

I decided to try a burrito jalisco. After I ordered, they dropped off some chips and salsa, which had some spice to it. I preferred that over the cremy white sauce, which tasted a bit sweet to me. The burrito was really tasty and had good flavor. It was served with a side of rice and was a decent size. Overall, I was really happy with my meal, as the flavors were more authentic than other Mexican restaurants I've tried. Don't be fooled by the strip mall that it's located in--it's definitely worth the trip.

We arrived on a Thursday night around 8 o'clock at the ever daunting and strange Brown Box Plaza…read moreparking lot. There are usually spaces available, but it is a confusing parking situation. We were seated in moments of arriving after a brief walk to the door from the parking lot. The atmosphere is authentically Mexican with no shortage of bottle-related wall furnishings or decor. The stairway in the front entrance, the chandelier, and the rafter hangings are among my favorites. Our server was Don (that may be wrong, I didn't get the printed reciept before leaving), who reminded me of a professional linebacker, was soft spoken and attentive. He was there when we needed him, and out of sight when we didn't. I ordered the Empanadas and Sweet Plantains for my entree and my partner opted for the Baja Crunch Burrito. We had been here before, so knew about what to expect from the kitchen. My empanadas were light and fluffy with some delightful flavors and added peppers, compared to other Sysco-style empanadas I have had. With only two small pouches for 10 bucks, I was disappointed. The sweet plantains were cooked to perfection, a little crisp and a little smooth and creamy. Suggestion: the empanadas and plantains would make a great entree for $12-14. The crispy chicken burrito was passable. My partner said, "The rice was slightly crunchy and the burrito was not as hot and tasty as last time." We decidedly went with the churros for dessert. I cannot tell you what they put in them, but I can tell you that every bite was as exquisite as the last. Absolute legend. Our server Ben, Don, whatever your name was, you were excellent. Thank you for providing fantastic service, my fellow sour beer enthusiast. May your tips ever increase. Casa Del Barco has a curated menu, plenty of drink options, and a half-full bar on a Thursday around 9 o'clock. It seems like a great place to go to meet a few people. I know the kitchen probably just had a rough night, and the restaurant will continue to strive for the highest quality food possible; therefore, I continue to recommend Case Del Barco if you enjoy Mexican food.

Let me start by saying the atmosphere here is almost always pleasant. Whether you're picking up…read morefood or dining in, they send you off with a friendly "see you tomorrow," which always leaves a good impression. My go-to order is the Quesadilla Del Mar without onions, and I have never been disappointed. When I dine in, I usually ask for queso on top. If I'm getting takeout, I order the queso on the side. Either way, the queso is top tier. A couple of small opportunities for improvement: Parking can be tough when the place is packed. Also, the complimentary chips, salsa, and white sauce for takeout could use some balance. You get two servings of chips but barely enough salsa for one chip, which feels a little off. I'm actually quite in awe of this and the main reason I can't give them 5 stars. You're already great. Don't compromise that by being stingy on salsa when give so much in your dishes. Overall, this is my go-to spot for Mexican food. I don't even live close, but I gladly make the drive every time.

I appreciate the vegetarian options as they are hard to find locally with most businesses. Staff, drinks, and ambience were exceptional. An impressive experience overall. Unfortunately, my second trip was a miss. I ordered the same menu items. The portion of the guac was significantly less and the texture was a whipped consistency (similar to baby food) and no flavor at all. My entree was not as impressive as the first time and lacked the flavor I was expecting from my initial experience --very disappointing.

We love the salsa they serve with chips, which is obviously house made as the heat level and amount of cilantro change from time to time. We love the manager checking every table. The prices are great and so is the service. If spicy stuff is your thing, I recommend the tacos a la diabla, and be sure to add the sauce to them. You will thank me.

They have an open condiment bar which I'm not too fond of but it seems traditional so no impact on my score here. The green salsa is the best. The peppers and onions were great to have as well. If I come back again I'd get the carne asada and hopefully try the canpechano or something else. With that said I'm not sure I'd be back. Maybe I'll get some hate for this but Chicken Fiesta has a great carne asada taco and I'd rather go there if i want a carne asada taco. It's a nice place. Packed on Saturday shortly after they open.
