Came for the hot air balloon fest and that was a huge BUST!!! At least, the food was good here which, kinda made up for the cancellation of (actual) flying hot air balloons. Mesquite had their annual hot air balloon festival so, figured I'd drive out this way for that. I heard it gets crazy busy here so, came hours prior. So, what do you do while waiting; YOU EAT! Waitlist was an hour but, "fast" lol Order the margaritas = duh, it's in their name! And the taco salad ...that was STELLAR! If you've ever had El Pollo Loco taco salad with the fried tortilla as a bowl then this is the same gist. And portions were huuuuuuuuuge. My friend and I shared and STILL had leftovers! Empanadas were pretty good, too. Filled and I could drink the green sauce it came with. I appreciate the pickled onions to accompany the empanadas. I wanna say "I'll be back" but, when.... This is hour half away hahah At least, I know where to eat the next hot air balloons fest! read more

Had the flank steak fajitas. Service was good. Steak was excellent. Condiments, sour cream, guac was all good. No knocks. My only complaint is the price. 22 dollars for 4 oz worth of flank steak is pretty steep. read more

In town to see some family and we decided to try this place out since it's relatively new. Not a very authentic Mexican restaurant but isn't horrible. I ordered the fajitas and the portions were solid, the quality was average. A little too salty and not enough seasoning. The tortillas were not great and the chips & salsa wasn't the best either. The best thing about our experience was our server, Chelsea, who was super nice and attentive. Always there to refill our drinks and help with anything we needed. read more

What a tasty and newly remodeled Mexican spot in CasaBlanca. We came in on a Sunday night around the time they opened - 4:00p. We got sat quite quick and were greeted by our server briefly after. She noted that she was a bit busy with a few tables before us and to bear with her. Although busy, her service never dwindled, she was quick to bring what was requested and a joy to interact with. For dinner we ordered the tres hermanas fajitas (great veggie option), three amigos enchiladas (chicken, beef and cheese) and a build your own combo plate with a shredded beef taco and beef tamale. Everything was tasty!!! I would absolutely recommend the fajitas, beef tamale and beef enchilada. Even their fideo soup + chicken tortilla soups - which come as a choice between soup or salad with the plates - and chips and salsa were delicious. For drinks we just ordered some beers and Rita's Classic mango margarita - you could definitely taste the alcohol and it's a huge serving for the price. Servings were large - all items came with rice, beans and etc. - we all had leftovers to take to go. I'd recommend this spot for those looking for some good and simple mexican bites while nearby. I can't say much about the ambiance inside as we dined outside, but inside looked well decorated, clean and bright. When we visit again, I'll order the beef tamale and maybe try their empanadas or a salad. Thanks Ritas & Fajitas for a lovely dinner, looking forward to dining in again. read more

Drinks and dinner on the patio made for a perfect November night! Our server, John was very attentive with great customer service. We enjoyed the tasty beef empanadas washed down with prickly pear margarita and Modelo beer yum! We shared the generous mahi mahi fajitas that were steaming hot and delicious. The portion was generous and it was served with rice and black beans. Check it out next time you head to the Casablanca. read more

I ordered the two item combo plate with chili relleno, and a cheese enchilada. Those items were pretty good, and the portions were large, although there was not enough sauce. My partner ordered the chili Relleno fajitas, which was a bit strange. The rice was delicious. The salsa was OK, it tasted more like pico de gallo. The one thing we both hated where the refried beans. They tasted like they were made with ham, the flavor was terrible. The flavored margaritas were way too sweet. The prices were really good for the portion size. read more

We recently took our sister and brother in law here. The food was delicious and the service is excellent

We were here on Cinco de Mayo for a 4:30 reservation. It was not crazy busy yet, though mostly all the tables were full. Our waitress was super chill, not stressing over how crazy this night probably was. I was so impressed with attentive but very calm demeanor. She was excellent! I wish I remembered her name. We both got fajitas and they came out steaming hot, lots of veggies which I love, and the steak was super tender. A great night! Great food! And an excellent, calm, cool, and collected server. read more

Thank goodness! Finally, a fabulous local Mexican restaurant in Mesquite! You'll find it in Casa Blanca casino. Recently remodeled, and it looks updated and bright. The food was fabulous! Our companions had a bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer, which was excellent. Chicken tortillas soup was a great included start. Three of us ended up with chile verde, which was truly the best I've ever had. Tender pork, perfect spice in the gravy, and an abundant portion. The refried beans had a subtly Smokey flavor- a perfect addition to a great plate. We had a fleet of margaritas/ OK, three fleets- and they were excellent as well. Service was truly perfect. We were well taken care of. Chelsea was the perfect server, which is almost as appreciated as the awesome food! Maybe more, as it's so rare! read more

I completely agree with Cheryl L.'s review. The night we went they had an NFL game on the TVs and we felt like we were eating dinner in the sports book. Then some obnoxious person came over the casino PA system and we couldn't even carry on a conversation at our table. The service was good. The ambiance didn't complement the menu or ethnicity at all. The booths, tables, carpet, and tile could have been a hospital cafeteria. The food was mediocre. Mesquite already has better Mexican restaurants than this effort by Casablanca. read more

Service is crap. First off I had reservations. When we were sat, nobody came to serve us. After watching table after table get sat, and get served 30 minutes went by I had to get up and walk out. This kind of discrimination of service is unacceptable. A waitress walking by us said she would be right with us 20 minutes after seated. When she came out of the kitchen she ignored us and started serving tables sat after us. Then just walked by us again. I figured well maybe she isn't our waitress. 10 minutes later I figured it was time to see my way out with my party. read more

Service and food were all good and our server was amazing. We got a lot of food for the price. Free chips and salad were very good too! read more

New restaurant in Casablanca. They have taken a dismal food offerings in mesquite to a new low. Drinks came 30 minutes after ordering, after dinner was served, steak Vicente definitely not grilled. Steak Vicente is a crock pot offering , no onions peppers or tomatoes.....maybe tomato based sauce. Absolutely disappointed read more

We got in right away, as it was still early in the serving hours. The atmosphere was good and not that load early in their hours of operation. The food was good and there was a lot of it. But they need to inform there servers of what is in there meats that they cook. My husband has an allergy to onions and we asked are server if anything had onions in it. She told us both that what he ordered didn't have onions in any of it. Come to find out that the braised pork was cooked with onions and the server didn't now about it. I know that some times onions are used but for the server to not know that is wrong. An if she was not sure on what was asked she should have went and asked the cooks, but she didn't. As far as this went, it was good and we enjoyed are selfs. read more

Food was very good. Pleasantly surprised considering it's a casino restaurant. The chicken soup was so yummy. And enchiladas are tasty. Our service was friendly and prompt. Nice atmosphere. Easy to find read more

Tried this place for the first time, the shrimp fajitas were amazing! The bubble margarita(s) lol cant just have one! Are fantastic!! Seems like the bad reviews are related to the restaurant opening and the challenges that come with that. All i can say is give it a shot, you wont be disappointed. read more

Loved the margaritas and street tacos. Went there for my birthday dinner. Good service and friendly staff.

Whoa... don't waste your time here at the Mexican place.. the other side of the cafe is decent but the Mexican side is gross... We ordered steak fajitas and they tasted like they were fried in oil. They had a Chinese oil taste .. the rice was gross Also fried in oil not fluffy like Spanish rice is supposed to be The chips were okay and the salsa was super mild We had a chicken quesadilla and it was like a dry cracker The guacamole was gross The beans and cheese were pretty good I wouldn't waste your money here The service was great.. the bus boys were awesome The host, hostess were awesome I would not pay for this gross food They fry it in old oil Imagine the steak friend in old oil ... the margarita was good Don't eat here Taco Bell was prob better read more

This new restaurant is a very nice looking place. It is bright and cheery. The staff members were all nice and service was good. The food was decent but should be called good Mexican-American cuisine. I only gave 3 stars because the price for the food is high. Our family of 4 had a bill of $100 before tax and tip! We only had 2 full dinners and an appetizer plus 2 deserts. On the plus side, the desserts are wonderful. We had churros and fried ice cream. Spectacular but again, a bit on the pricey side. read more

Service and food was wonderful. We had the Fideo an tortilla soup , tableside Guacamole and chicken fajita .everything was excellent read more

This place has a long way a to go... Flavorless food, and drinks that come out after it. I asked for no onions in my fajitas and it was full of them, tortillas broke apart they were so dry & the rice was cold. We won't be back. read more

The Casa Blanca remodeled their old cafe and that space now houses two new restaurants. Ritas and Fajitas is one of them. There isn't really any ambience. There are only a few booths. The rest of the seating is 2 and 4 tops that can be pushed together for larger parties. It's quite noisy. The food is presented nicely enough but lacks in quality and flavor. Our server was pleasant. I only saw one bus person and they ignored our dirty plates and empty chip and salsa bowl. We were very disappointed considering that the other two restaurants at Casa Blanca are very good. This one needs to step up its game. read more

I must say the margaritas on the rocks are amazing. Prickly pear was my favorite. When it comes to the food, the mahi-mahi tacos are amazing the refried beans not so much very bland the rice is very bland but I definitely had great service. The ambience is a little bit loud and not quaint whatsoever if you like bright and busy, this is the place to come and eat.. Still would love to try the fajitas next time around. read more

Service was really bad. We waited almost an hour for our food and never asked if we want some more water or drinks. Chicken Fajitas was kind a dry , i mean the chixken was dry and hard. We should just go to the cafeteria next door. 1st we experienced this bad service read more

Food was good. Service ok. Very much a bar experience. Sad because I liked the Purple Fez that had been there for many years.

John our waiter was outstanding! Great service and the food was good too! Definitely a go to restaurant when you're in Mesquite.

The chicken nachos were big enough to share, the mango bubble margarita was fantastic. We made a reservation and got in right away. Ambiance was nice with no cigarette smoke smell. Janet was our server and was excellent!!! read more

Mimi was amazing - she was so helpful and attentive. My husband and I shared a French dip and she even split our au just for us. Food is yummy and affordable read more

Cold, bland food, we told the manager after my wife and I each took one bite. He said he would let the kitchen know, then walked away. Service was okay. They cram so many tables in so close that you constantly have people walking past you on both sides a few inches from your cold food. read more

yuk. we where so looking forward to trying out the new place. Taco Bell is better. The food was so bland, the queso tasted like melted caulk. the margiritas where melted slurpees. The tortilla soup was a can of corn with shredded chicken in it. Just so bad, and to top it all off it was served barely warm. All after an hour wait to get seated. read more

We went to this restaurant for the first time. It was early on a Saturday night and we were lucky enough to get a table right away. The service was good, but not overly warm or friendly, except for the hostess, who sat us. He was very friendly. The ambience was loud and more like a sports bar. If that is the environment that you are looking for then this will work for you. There were no real colorful decorations, like I'm used to in a Mexican restaurant. It was very blah and cafeteria like, except for the holiday snowmen painted on the windows. The best part about it was the food except for one thing. Almost everything was loaded with onions. If you like onions, you will be very happy. I am not used to onions in my tacos or enchiladas. My husband got the pork taco, ground beef taco and an enchilada. Everything had onions in it. I got the chili relleno and enchilada. I would get them both again. The rice was OK, the fried beans were good and we enjoyed the tortilla soup... But could've used less onions....as could the salsa. They give you a nice generous bowl and the chips are nice and hardy! I couldn't stop eating them, but had to dip around the salsa to avoid all the onions. I guess you get the idea by now. My husband had the blackberry margarita and would definitely get it again. I had the margarita with the mini grand Marnier and definitely would get that again! Overall, we will come back and give it another try. read more

awful atmosphere. joined with another restaurant with no divider wall. no music. poor decor. hyped as a destination to experience after they remodeled but it's still as sterile as before. food was ok. server hurried us.

THE WORST SERVICE I HAVE EVER RECEIVED IN MESQUITE, NV. Our group made a reservation and right off the bat we were asked what we wanted to drink only to have half of our table be able to place a drink order and the waitress had an already negative attitude. Then it took well over 30 minutes for those drinks to arrive and after we placed our food order not even half of our table got their food or they got food that was wrong or that they didn't order at all, I personally didn't get my food, had to ask for it and it came after everyone else in my party of done eating due to having to be made since it wasn't made in the first place. To top it all off because it came so late and they had to make it because it was forgotten about it was extremely hot and I had plan to share that dish with my 2 year old toddler who then had not had the chance to eat since it was so hot. I will NEVER be back and you should really hire better servers, people at least deserve a smiling face being that gratuity is already added on the bill automatically. read more

We were a table of 6 I myself was so looking forward to trying the food here reviews were good when they first opened and I love mexican cuisine but the food was just meh and it wasn't just me that is what everyone at our table of 6 pretty much said....I liked the salsa but if you like a kick and spice you may not like it it's very mild which I prefer....Multiple people at our table had complaints about to much cilantro in their food....We were given no straws and napkins asked multiple times it took multiple times asking and when we all got our food no one had silverware like we could not eat we had to call our server over and ask for silverware.....It wasn't until we left we realized 5 of us never were asked or got the soup or salad that was supposed to come with our meals it said so on the menu....I don't remember our servers name which may be good for him because he was not a good server friendly but not good serving us that's for sure.....We also waited 45 minutes to be seated......We all ordered different things from the menu fajitas burritos fish tacos and 3 different combination plates so it was quite a variety of meh items....I'm going to give this place one more try to see if it was an off night so I'm hoping they can redeem themselves........Disappointed 6 customers...I myself thought the place was drab and needed color and that mexican ambiance but everyone said if the food was great that's what mattered well it wasn't.... read more
