I don't usually leave reviews, but this was an all-around frustrating experience from start to…read morefinish. Right off the bat, we asked for a highchair and were told it would be brought over. It never came. After waiting, we had to flag down a server walking by, who eventually brought one--only for it to be broken. It then took another 10 minutes before we finally got a functional highchair. Throughout the visit, the staff seemed far more interested in talking amongst themselves than actually paying attention to guests. The overall atmosphere felt disorganized, inattentive, and unprofessional. The worst part came after we left. I realized almost immediately that I had left my wallet behind and called right away. Instead of any sense of urgency or willingness to help, the host who answered was incredibly rude and dismissive. Before I could fully explain the situation, she cut me off and told me to "call back tomorrow." When I tried to quickly describe the wallet--color, contents, anything that might help--she hung up on me mid-sentence. Considering I called almost immediately after leaving and was brushed off so quickly, it raises serious concerns about whether any real effort was made to locate it. I would hope any establishment would take something like that seriously. Between the lack of attention, the disorganization, and the way a simple, time-sensitive situation was handled, this place clearly has serious issues with customer service. I won't be back.

Will never eat here again! Made a to-go order, I ordered a quesadilla, which was fine. My husband's…read moreorder was the fajitas chicken and I added on steak for an extra charge. My husband drove home only to realize they did not add the steak to his fajitas. He drove back to get the order corrected, asked them to remake his order, which I think it's fair, but they wanted to reheat his chicken and mix it with the steak he asked again for them to make it fresh since the fault was on their end and they refused. So he asked for a refund and a tip refund and they refused. Asked to speak to the manager and of course the person he was speaking to "was the manager" and apparently no one working there knew who the manager was. "Oscar" is the only thing anyone would tell him. Been here and spent plenty of money here, but they just lost our business today. My husband was nice through the whole process and they still refused to help. Terrible customer service, and Oscar shouldn't be a "manager"

Food was extremely salty. So much so that I couldn't finish my meal. Aside from the salt, there was…read moreno flavor to the food. The food was bland. The highlight of the meal was the queso I got for my chips. My server popped in before my butt hit the seat and took my drink order, was gone for less than 2 minutes and came back to ask if I was ready. I asked for more time and I didn't see her for 10 minutes. I ordered and never saw her again until I was ready to leave which was about 30 minutes. I needed water because of how salty the food was but she never returned. I will not be returning.

Was thinking that they would not be as nice as the regular spot, because i, well frequent it. Far from the truth. They were all very nice. The girl serving me at the bar was newish, as she didn't speak English as a first language, but i also appreciated that, because Spanish is my second (ish) language Pocito, lol, and she spoke to me mostly in Spansih. food was solid. I did notice, however, that the spicy salsa (you have to ask for it), was not as hot as I was expecting. Might be just a milder batch, or just a change for the day... or the HS clientele is from NE. I did however get the spicy steak tacos with the rice and beans, and they were packed. I am lucky that I got the lunch portion, as the dinner would have put me out for the rest of the day. Cute place, the giant wooden beach chairs out front. Cute bar, and most of all, the people all seemed happy, and genuinely had service with a smile. I would totes go again!

Not sure if they were trying to get rid of me to have more room for people or what'. Ordered my food and waited. Waited some more. Saw people who ordered after me get their food.

Don't be afraid of the surround areas of the NBA .. best hole in the wall places can be found in this area. Walking into Castillos and it's like walking into tios and tias casa ... with abuela in the kitchen whipping up something good and ole love songs in Spanish coming from the speaker in the corner .. Menu in the wall is pretty easy to navigate .. and if you need help .. the person behind the register will help you with your order. This time Mojarra Frita and Pupusas was ordered. After you place your order you can grab an empty table and take a walk over to the sauce bar which has all the salsas from mild to burn your ass off and some sides of pickled onions in peppers , limes, cilantro, onions, jalapeno and radish. Picking salsas is like playing roulette with your taste buds and ass ... cause there are no lables on what is what ... you just take the plunge lol After sitting down and munching on some chips and salsa the food arrived in a short time. Yes service is fast here ! First item out was the Mojarra Frita and man oh man it was delicious! The beans were onpoint ! The fish (whole talapia) was fried to perfection... just squeeze some fresh lime on it with a lil bit of salt and pepper and boom ita good to go . Pro tip use the freshly made tortillas it come with and dip it in some of the fresh green salsa than dip some of the fried fish into it also to kick it up another level .. Next up were the Pupusas and damn they were good .. especially with the slaw and sauce it comes with .. key ingredients in it were the bean and cheese .. and it was amazing .. What can I say about Castillo to wrap it up ?? It's good! Service is fast and muy bueno ! And bonus .... its very affordable . I definitely will be back to try other items
