“We were in Louisville for just a quick trip and our family was looking for a good authentic Mexican place to eat. We were SO GLAD to have found this place! The ambience is amazing and so beautifully decorated. The service was perfect, but the best part of all was THE FOOD. The specials were Caldo de Camaron, Pozole Verde, and Chiles Rellenos all super authentic and tasted just like one would make it at home. The drinks were fantastic, we had agua de horchata and jamaica and both were sooo fresh and tasty. Overall, we were happy that the one place we chose to eat was here!! If you are hesitant to stop by, don’t be, just go!!“

“This is by far my favorite Mexican Restaurant in town, for both quality burritos, great meat options, authentic drinks, and at a fair price. They have a lot of choices you don’t commonly see anywhere north of Mexico. Honestly underrated and more people need to discover this restaurant. My recommendation: Chile Relleno burrito with Barbacoa 🌯.“

“The only reason I gave 4 stars...it was the first time to this restaurant. service was prompt, food was very good and a large portion. And I have to say I am trying to learn Spanish more and the servers were so kind when I messed up . I will definitely recommend this establishment“

“We are 2 globetrotting foodies, temporarily located to Louisville for work. Monday night dinner here (home made quesadillas with squash blossoms and corn smut, taco with chorizo) was followed by Tuesday night dinner here again (home made quesadillas again, tacos with chicharron, al pastor, campechano, lomo, carnitas). Our tummies say “thank you”!

It’s amazing that a food truck in a gas station 4 minutes from our house is serving such authentic food from Oaxaca, Mexico!

See you again soon!“

“My girlfriend and I just had one of the best experiences here! Our waitress, Paola, was amazing. She made our experience 10x better. She was kind and super friendly. I asked for recommendations and she did not disappoint! If you ever come here, I’d say to request her if you can! Oh, and try the huckleberry frozen margarita and their house-made corn tortillas. 1000/10 experience and will definitely be coming back!“

“We got the molcajete for two. The portions sizes were awesome, the food was phenomenal! We got our order to go but the restaurant staff was welcoming and the place had a comfortable vibe. We’ll definitely be back for a sit down meal!“

“Excellent service, delicious menu, good prices!“

“Stopped in today and got some of our favorites and tried some new things that now have joined the favorites list! The Tortas, Tamales, the Burritos...the list goes on. All Excellent!“

“This place is dangerous in a good way , I got the loco burrito I've never had burrito so flavorful and I got a taco and forgot what meat I ordered but it was unbelievably great ! The prices was great and the portions are nice ! If you want good seasoned Mexican food this is the place to go !! I can't think of the words to explain how flavorful and good the food is and the sauces are out of this world !!“

“First things first! Walking in the door, the place is very clean. Bright and beautiful decor and a friendly greeting! There was a birthday party going on and the children were so well behaved. We placed a carryout order and the server was patient, helpful and kind. We got our food home and everything was absolutely delicious!! This is now our #1 spot!“

“I cannot say enough Love This restaurant !! Fun with Band and Food is outstanding!!“

“First time there we celebrated a birthday, and WOW, these folks made it memorable and fun!! Best time ever! This is not a typical Mexican restaurant. The menu is loaded with amazing food from numerous countries in S. America. Huge portions (food AND drink!) at reasonable prices and everything we tried was over-the-top delish! We've returned num times...our new favorite place to eat with consistently great food/drinks!“

“I travel a lot and am a Mexican food nerd, and this was not only the best food I had in Louisville, it ranks as some of the best Mexican food spots I’ve been to in a long time (and went back as my final meal in time before flying out). The carnitas were killer, the guacamole super fresh and the jalapeño margaritas dangerously good. The fish tacos were beautifully seasoned with a big generous piece of fish. And the spot was incredibly cleans and everyone so friendly. Please give this place a shot.“

“We are visiting the town of Louisville and we stop by to get lunch at Mi casita. The decoration is authentic, I love the Mexican guirnaldas and the hat. The place is cozy. The food is good. My favorite part is the service. I highly recommend to eat here. The chunky salsa was my favorite one, spicy and perfect. The size of the portions are just perfect, I even take leftovers home. It is run by Mexicans, that tells you something, it is good.“

“We dined at the Hurstbourne location for Valentine's Day and was not disappointed!! There were full vases of flowers on every table as well as a Valentine's balloon. The restaurant was so festive, then to add to the ambiance a strolling violinist was playing a beautiful love song. My phone died so there aren't any pictures of the delicious food. The baskets of tortilla chips even had red heart shaped chips in the mix. Gustavo's pulled all the stops to make this holiday special for their customers!“

“Amazing tacos and the margaritas look fantastic. Will be trying one next time!!“

“We’ve been to El Mundo more than a few times, and it’s always fantastic. The service is friendly, the food comes out fast, and the staff is so friendly.

The mole enchiladas are my favorite, and you can never go wrong with the margaritas. They also have one of the best happy hours around.

I love the bar area—it’s nice and cool inside, especially on a hot summer day.“

“You will not be disappointed. This hidden gem is so tasty. My picky children were literally drinking the salsa, which is high praise from this crew. We will be back!“

“Went Wednesday and Thursday while staying at The Galt House Hotel but had terrible experience today, Friday, terrible service and nachos so salty we couldn’t eat. Server and manager didn’t seem to care.“

“premade food and they heat it up, the food is rock hard and they put paper on the plates to keep them from being dirty, they could really improve by making it freshly made, your a Mexican restaurant it should be freshly made.“

“La mejor atencion y los sabores mas deliciosos combinados en este confortable lugar. lo memor de lo mejor. 😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“We got the molcajete for two. The portions sizes were awesome, the food was phenomenal! We got our order to go but the restaurant staff was welcoming and the place had a comfortable vibe. We’ll definitely be back for a sit down meal!“

“Always good food and service.“

“Tienda muy limpia, personal amable y servicial, excelente variedad de comida fresca.“

“Our favorite place for a casual dinner when in Louisville! The food and margs are delicious and the staff is so friendly!“

“I have been dining at this location for 20+ years. They NEVER disappoint. Fast friendly service. Delicious food!!! It is nice that so many of the wait staff have been there for the entire time I have been stopping in. That says something about the place!! They are warm and welcoming and go out of their way to make sure your order is accurate and additional dining needs are met.“

“The food was great. The service was fantastic. We had a verity of food at our table. All the food was delicious. I wish we had this in Spokane WA. 10 stars if I could.“

“We had about a 20 minute wait, which for a Saturday night is not bad at all. I ordered the huevos rancheros. It was pretty good. The tomatoes they used were under ripe so, the flavor was not what it should have been. Outside of that the food was really good. The margaritas were excellent!“
