Pretty good and pricing is decent . We ordered a build your own with 3 items . 2 chili rellanos and a grilled chicken taco . Comes with rice and beans . The chicken taco was good but a little on the dryer side . We added the house salsa and that made it better . The chilli relay is were huge . Lots of batter . It was fluffy . The sauce on the rellanos was just ok . More tomato based than chili based . Again added the house salsa and it was much better . Chips and salsa were great and the warm beans on the side was a bonus . I had a skinny margarita and it was perfect and strong . I'd give this place a 7 out of 10 . Decent . Pretty good flavor. The grilled chicken could have add more carbon flavor and the rellano sauce could have been a little more flavorful . read more

Basic Mexican food. I ate at the Dale Rd Las Casuelas location with a group of 5 on a Sunday evening. When we arrived, there was no wait and many empty tables. It is a pretty standard local Mexican joint. It is very casual and family friendly. There is a small bar separate from the main dining room. There is also a large back room that can be reserved for special events. The decor was nice and the music was fine. We were provided chips, salsa, and beans. I was not a fan of these. The chips were dense and the beans were flavorless. The salsa was alright. It was pretty hot but wasn't utilized much because the chips weren't great. For my main dish, I ordered the Supreme Quesadilla with beef. It came with a side of beans and rice. I liked that the beans had cheese but I wasn't impressed with either side. The rice felt a little bit undercooked to me. The quesadilla itself was pretty good. It was very cheesy and had a lot of beef. I appreciate the large dollops of guacamole and sour cream. The service was disappointing. It took an extremely long time for the waiter to come and take our order. We were sitting there ready to order for probably 20 minutes or longer. Once we received the food, we did not see our waiter again. We were in desperate need of a water refill but the waiter never came by. To me, the service felt very slow and unenthusiastic. read more

Gave them one more shot for a taco salad... and they blew it again. You'd think a taco salad would be a simple win, but nope. I asked for grilled chicken and got stewed chicken with absolutely zero flavor. They said it came with guacamole and sour cream--neither were anywhere to be found. The "salad" was basically lettuce, pico, and whole beans with a super tiny portion overall. I added bell peppers and onions, maybe five pieces total, and they hit me with a $6 upcharge. Would've been nice to know that before so I could've said no thanks. Final price for this subpar salad? $25. I actually had to go back just to show them. The bar manager, Hamad (spelling), tried to help by adding more chicken and then told me the sour cream and guac were "under the shell." Really? Who hides condiments under the shell? Total waste of time and money. I'm done. No more chances. read more

Let me start off with the bad..a very rude confrontational Bartender who made us a "Mojito" which was served in the smallest glass and filled to the rim with ice. We kindly asked for a replacement with less ice and explained that there were only two large sips ! The server asked and returned with a "NO GO" response. I told him they it really needed to be replaced, he asked again and out storms the bartender to our table! REFUSED TO REPLACE! Argued with us in front of everyone! We showed him the glass but he stood strong! Two women, two drinks ! I stood my ground and with a MAD face he finally agreed and had to have the last word " This will not be replaced next time!" ! Well guess what? There won't be a next time! He just lost two families for business and we live around the corner and let it be known that our neighbors will know! We he really crying for a shot of liquor that he had to use to make his customers happy??? Oh and the Milanese plate was good, he just ruined the fun! Ambience is just ok. To improve the place? Get rid of your rude bartender read more

DO NOT EAT HERE‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼ I gave one star for the Al pastor taco The carne asada was so tough and old. I drove 2 hours and a half to visit my mom and she wanted tacos . Manager was advised and was so rude all they offered was another plate no refunds. We didn't want a handout just to let them know their quality of meat was not up to par. I'm Mexican and I'm pretty disappointed. Take pride in yourselves and do better read more

Went today . Ordered a super burrito I cut it down the middle and a bone was in it . Chimichangas was not even fried was more like a burrito . When letting the waitress know about the bone she took the plate back . Never apologized . I ordered a cheese enchilada . Once receiving the bill we had 3 meals on there in which another appeared stating they remove the meal with the bone . Which wasn't true they removed 10 dollars and charged 6 for enchilada . The bartender then comes to our table and states it happens that bones are on the chicken burrito ‍ I said no she void have chocked on it he said nothing . The waitress said what you want free food ! Very insulting considering they left bones in the food . They never apologized and have horrible customer service as they are arguing in front of customers in their restaurant! The bartender was upset went removed enchilada. One .. came back now the bill was more from original total ! The previous waitress failed to add our drinks Pepsi .. now he the bartender wants to add the drinks since he removed the food that was incorrect ! This place as truely changed since new ownership ! The workers have NO customer service ! Food was poor dry no sauce , chimichangas not cooked correctly how you can mess that up is beside me ! And again bones in burrito . In the bartenders words "it happens " horrible Do not have to worry about us coming back here as he stated ! Learn how to deal with customers and own up to your mistakes! There are too many places to go to near here with good service ... read more

Great traditional Mexican food. This place never disappoints. I started with the whiskey smash, which was a refreshing variation of almost a margarita. The complimentary chips along with their salsa and beans paired amazingly well. I proceeded to get the choose three build your own combo with a beef taquito(pictured), green chicken enchilada, and a chicken burrito. The beef taquito was first of all huge, the biggest one that I have ever seen. It came with plenty of toppings including guacamole, sour cream, cheese, cabbage, and tomatoes. The burrito was decent, definetely could have used at least some more salsa, ended up being a filler on my plate. I saved the best for last, the classic enchilada was smothered in a delicious salsa that I dipped my other two items into. If you want to try out different things and get a good amount of food for your money, you can't go wrong with the build your own combo, especially from this establishment. Apart from the food, the service exceeded my expectations and it is perfect for your next casual dining experience. read more

Definitely not going back. When we got there it looked like someone had broken open a trash bag in front of the front door and not picked it up. We are still debating on whether the service or food was worse. The servers seemed to be inconvenienced. Took a long time to take our order like at least 20 minutes and it wasn't busy. All of the food ordered came out cold except the fajitas were hot. It was mostly green bell peppers. Sent back one dish because the person was afraid of getting food poisoning. Second one they brought was also lukewarm. We were never offered refills on drinks, we had to chase someone down. We paid cash and the waiter never brought back change. We won't be going back, and next time will go to El Rosal or Chilis. read more

This place has gone down Hill the service is horrible the new wait staff messes around too much today took 40 min to place my order nobody has a good attitude or smiles I would fire them all and start over I won't be back read more

Very good home made food. I love the tacos Dorados. Michelada is the bomb! The servers are very nice.

I stopped by Las Casuelas today for a quick bite and, as always, had a great experience. I sat at the bar, where Miguel was holding it down solo--and on his birthday, no less! Even with a full bar, he was welcoming, kind, and attentive to every person who walked in. His energy is unmatched, and he truly goes above and beyond to make everyone feel at home. Thank you for the attentive service and delicious milanesa! Your local real estate agent, Celeste Robles read more

Yum yum on the food, drinks and super yum on the chips and salsa. What a beautiful restaurant too with all its decorative touches and lots of seating inside! The restaurant is easy to locate and there is plenty of safe, free and well lit parking. Now when you come inside be prepared to smell all the wonderful and freshly prepared food waiting for you to order it. I hardly waited any time at all until my food came right out of the kitchen while being carried by Ms. Sairel with a beautiful smile. From the moment I walked in, I was directly seated and served chips, salsa and this delicious bean dip. I also indulged and ordered a ruby margarita with a side shot. The margarita was perfectly mixed with this pomegranate and lime flavor that is making my mouth water as I am writing this review. The extra shot was just because who doesn't deserve an occasional side shot during dinner? I ordered the shrimp - mojo de ajo and it was so garlic and buttery, again, my mouth is watering right now.....I don't know why; because I walked away MORE THAN full and grateful for this delicious meal, served by a kind and good human while sitting in a beautiful restaurant listening to some great music. God is good and I have a new place to stop in to have an amazing meal. read more

Came here during the weekend for some dinner. Parking lot was empty. We sat in the bar. Not really packed or anything but they had a few tables that were watching the sports game that was on. Seating in the bar was standard with high tops. Not sure what his name is but he's worked there for years behind the bar. Great customer service but man was he busy. He was the only worker on the bar side taking orders, making drinks, checking up on tables, etc. Him alone I give a 10/10. But unfortunately because he was pretty busy, it did take a while to get our actual food orders in (he took our drinks orders soon after we got there). When we needed a refill, he was too busy to notice us which i commend him for his great customer service and efforts. However a couple of times we had to walk over to the bar to make a request. The food was good. It usually is although I always get the carne con Chile and the sauce was a little off this time, but still good. Overall, the service was amazing, prices were fair. I love their happy hour specials. But they definitely need more staff. If I was in a tighter schedule I definitely would not come to this restaurant. read more

I went in. I had a taste for a you know salad I ordered a fajita salad when you think of a fajita you think of like the fajita mix with the bell peppers and onions the vegetables it literally only had the letters two tomatoes, two slices of avocado I had to add some grilled onions onto the salad, which was a six dollar additional charge. The service was very slow and I ordered the steak and they brought me chicken. read more

Got there a little after dinner time on a Wednesday. We had a 5min wait which i didnt mind. After a bit we were served our drinks. Our actual server finally showed up which from that point we kept seeing her constantly. Our drinks we ordered took way to long to get to our table. Regulating the food, it was very average. Theres so many other mexican restaurants in the area to justify the prices here for the quality. Generally I believe if they changed the quality they can become extremely better. Do not recommend considering the other local options read more

Food was mediocre I feel like they just make up recepies because the fajitas were not to the quality I'm accustomed too. Chewy hard tough not to mention overly salty as the meat sits atop a puddle of soy sauce! The rice was hard and dry and the beans were just beans!! My poor son who's a student spent $50 to treat his mother to crappy crappy inauthentic Mexican food! We will never go again. read more

Ordered and paid for 12 tacos with beans and rice. Gave me 2 bags and I left thinking it was all there. Got home and only had 6 tacos!

Got there about 7:45 Ordered our drinks got the chips and salsa Took about 10 minutes for the guy to come back with our drinks by that time we placed our menus at the end of the table ready to order. About 5 minutes after we already had our drinks we tell him we're ready to order, since they failed to acknowledge it or ask. He says he'll let our server know. After about 15 minutes of waiting we decide to pay for our drinks since our server still hadn't come to take our order. By this time it was about 8:10 with our order still not being placed. At no point did we get an apology from the server for taking so long. Paid $8 for two sodas we didn't finish due to the lack of care from this place. Keep in mind there were only 3 other tables with smaller groups, so they were not busy. Don't really ever leave reviews whether good or bad but man I highly do not recommend coming here. Do better. read more

Very disappointing not the restaurant I remember the poorest service I have ever received anywhere I had to ask for silverware and napkins after I received my food I had to ask for straws I had to ask for a refill. There was never an offer to remove the dirty plates. The guy that took our order was never to be found other servers had to help us. my son and I both ordered the Dan Jorge tacos and they were very disappointing. at one time this was a five star restaurant on yelp it is no longer. read more

The Food was super bland. Fish tacos was plain gross, and I got a chile verde wet burrito. If I closed my eyes I wouldn't have guessed what I was eating. No flavor at all. The only good thing I have to say is fast service and their free been dip with hot tortilla chips. Worst Place I've tried in Central Valley. read more

Update: Came here cause grumpy husband needed food so he wanted Mexican. I ordered something unusual and I ended up liking it. So there were a couple of flies in the restaurant which I can understand it's out of the control, or some part, but it is a decent restaurant which is why we continually come by here once in a blue moon. One thing they do consistently provide is excellent salsa. I can't give this restaurant higher than three stars because in Central Valley, they are just like any other Mexican restaurants. There is nothing extraordinary about this restaurant that deserves higher than three stars. Quality: A Price: A Service: A + read more

Las Casuelas - Mexican Near Me - Modesto, California

We haven't been to this place in years and now I remember why. It was raining so soup sounded great, I ordered albondigas and my husband ordered a milanesa torta. He ordered a negro modelo ( it was forgotten) and I ordered an Horchata and water with lemon. I sent the horchata back, it was so disgusting. The water tasted like they pulled it out of the drain. I then sent it back for a Pepsi and even that tasted like some kind of chemical. I had my husband try them to make sure it wasn't just me. It wasn't. So... Let's dig into my meal first, I have never in my life ever had such a dry meatball especially in soup! I didn't even know that was possible. It had zero flavor. I ate one out of the three that were in there, I maybe got two carrots, a few zucchini and two potatoes as well. I left it all there. On to my husband's meal. I've never seen him leave food in all our years. He said the meat had no flavor and it all tasted like cardboard. To say this place was disappointing is a huge understatement. We will definitely not be returning. Service was ehh, the man who took our order seemed rushed. $75 down the drain and my husband still being kind left a great tip. Crappy service and crappy food. Don't waste your money here, especially when things are already crazy expensive. read more

I visited Las Casuelas on June 28, 2024, around 8:30 - 9 PM, craving something spicy. I decided to order the camarones a la diabla and aguachiles. The young woman at the front desk was super friendly and seemed to be in training. She had some questions about the computer and how to input the food order, and a nosy bartender walked over to "help" her but was actually quite rude. It made me very uncomfortable. When I asked the bartender if they could make my two items very spicy, he responded rudely, "The aguachiles are already premade, so no, we cannot. The camarones a la diabla we can make a little spicy." His tone was unfriendly and not accommodating to customers at all. I ended up paying $43 for my two items, but I wish I hadn't bought anything at all. When I began eating my food, I was very disappointed. The aguachiles were a sad excuse for aguachiles, with very little shrimp, and the vegetables and jalapeños were cut awkwardly. The camarones a la diabla were also not appetizing--way too salty and not spicy at all. I feel bad for the young girl, and I will not be going back to this place nor will I recommend it to others. read more

Honestly, really disappointed with everything. Beans and rice tasted horrible. First bite I gagged. My dad said they make better rice and beans in jail. Camarones mojo al ajo were not bad but how can someone go wrong with butter and garlic? The tostadas de ceviche were flavorless and didn't stand out to me. The service wasn't horrible but it didn't wow me. This is where you get drunk off happy hour not to feed your family. read more

I never feel rushed and they let us know if we need anything to let them know! The restaurant gives you old school Mexican style ambiance. I love it very home vibes! It's always super busy too! Should definitely check it out. They have them kinda all over too so you don't just have to go to the one in Modesto. read more

Walked In Around 6/6:15 on a Saturday night, expected there to be a wait since we walked in at the same time as a few other groups. Party of 4 we only waited for 5 minutes. Once we were sat we were greeted with chips and salsa right away and asked for our drink order. Another server, (I wish I remembered her name, but she had a big pink bow in her hair) came to take our order. She was great, I asked for a couple of side options for my 9 month old that she brought quickly. Our dinners were all delicious I got the Beef Molcajete & a classic margarita, my older daughter a wet super burrito and my husband tacos. Eating out with kids can be stressful but we will be back here thanks to the quick and kind service & great food! read more
