“This place is phenomenal. My husband has tried it at his work and couldn't stop talking about it. We went into the location tonight. They have a small, but nice seating area. The staff is beyond helpful and friendly. Anything you need or ask for, they are happy to get for you. The nachos are out of bounds. Their homemade queso is so delicious and everything they use is super fresh. My husband loves the California quesadilla with bacon, chicken and avocado. We tried the churros tonight, and couldn't stop eating them. I would highly recommend this place.“

“While enjoying my Elote tonight from my Togo order with Casa Amado, I had a thought! “Why is everything they do so magical”… and that’s my review. Everything is magical from Casa Amado. Don’t miss out on this authentically delicious taco joint. I hope my entire friends list sees this recommendation cause if you’re friends with me… you need to try this place!“

“Very very tasty bowl. It's like if chipotle was made with taqueria ingredients, and a little bit cheaper. Vibes inside give corporate sanitized no real vibe at all which is kind of awful, so I'd say more of a take out place. Soda fountain out of order, which is also terrible. Oh and the "chips and cheese" is not queso it's literally nacho cheese like come on man that's gross.“

“This is my go to Mexican place in the area. Although it is not on the cheap side, I do not mind spending more for good Mexican food. My favorite is their Birria Flour Tacos and my kids love their Hard Shell Steak Tacos. The guac and chips are always fresh. They always have the food ready if you go there in person or online within 10-15 minutes the vast majority of the time. When they first opened they did get my online order wrong a few times but always re-made it and apologized. The last several times they have been spot on and I will continue to spread the word to people to check them out. The staff is also very friendly. Two thumbs up!“

“Amazing new spot in downtown Royal Oak. Tacos and guac were so good. More authentic than the other Mexican restaurants in town, and the vibe is more upscale and relaxing. Really friendly staff and quick service. Hidden gem! I hope more people discover and support this restaurant. Pretty close to the Lafayette street garage for parking.“

“Some of the best tacos we have had in Metro Detroit. Way better than Condado's. I would highly recommend, but would be apprehensive so there was always a spot ready for me. The staff was just as equally amazing too. Thank you. 10/10 all day!!“

“The food was amazing! The only thing I didn't prefer was the queso dip. It was very watery, and lacking flavor. It was very cheesy tasting though which was nice. I got the enchiladas with green sauce and OH BOY it was good.
The waitress though seemed like either she didn't like her job, or just didn't care. My friend asked if the taco shell could be subbed for a flour one (since it was corn) and the waitress paused for what seemed like an eternity to answer and said "eh, let me check".
All in all, I would come back for takeout or something of that nature, but go somewhere else for a dine in experience.
Vegetarian options: They really only had the side dishes like rice and beans, guacamole, and queso dip for vegetarians. I'm sure you could ask for it to be taken off but the waitress and cook might throw a fit.“

“The place before this was terrible but so glad they got new owners! The food is finally up to par and the restaurant has a very nice atmosphere. Great drinks as well! The Bahama mama is excellent! Five stars is only for a place that really knocks my socks off, so four is good.“

“In the places that I’ve been to in Pontiac (which is quite a few) this has been the best place to eat that I have found and their pricing is competitive with other local restaurants. This is my go to place and everything I’ve had here has been enjoyable and never let me down. Quality produce and meat, everything tastes fresh and well cooked.“

“Great place for lunch as it includes a drink for a reasonable price and service is quick as long as you beat the rush. Food is good and portion sizes are as well. The only thing that made me take a star away is the overall condition of the place. The front has an pergola that has been under construction since before COVID. It appears that the plans for it never materialized. The main entry door has been broken for the last year or more. They should really do something about it before someone hurts themselves with it.“
“Voted one of the best places for tacos in metro Detroit.Great service, prices and flavor. The carnival grill located inside carnival market is a popular spot with the locals. The attendents at the counter were very friendly and helpful. There is a spot to eat inside or even at the patio. The bakery is great to pick up flan or sweet cakes to have after your great meal.“

“Visited O.W.L. early today as it was the only dine in resturant open for breakfast.
The breakfast menu is small....and the food was hot, fresh, flavorful AND, delicious. We ordered bacon with egg and chorizo with egg breakfast sandwiches.
Sandwiches were generous, and prepared with care. Make sure to ask for eggs well done if you don't want runny egg yokes with your meal.
Offerings of fresh pineapple and watermelon juice are refreshing breakfast thirst quinchers if you're looking for a natural morning pick me up!
I also paid attention to the chef....she continuously put on fresh gloves when handling food and beverages.....this was very important to me.
The chef/server and staff are pleasant and very accommodating!
We will return, soon, to sample their taco options!
Try O.W.L. when time permits. You will not be disappointed!“

“At this location my experience has been great. A coworker wanted me to try and I would choose them over Chipotle. I've been back on my vegetarian kick, so I love the adobo chicken bowls. I add plenty of veggies, cilantro rice with their seasoned peppers are so good 😋
I recommend 8/10“

“Our family stopped In there today to try for the first time. We had 2 Large steak burritos, 1 veggie burrito bowl and 2 churros. Food was amazingly good. The establishment was clean. The staff was friendly. All the food options looked and tasted fresh. Churros rocked. Heck I might stop in just for those alone. I would highly recommend this place over the large Corporate chain options out there. Hope these guys stay around for a long time“

“First time trying it and let me say I regret not trying it sooner. I was a bit hesitant but Chris was extremely helpful and made so many great recommendations. I had the quesadillas (chicken), chips and queso. The dessert was over the top. When I say I am not typically a big eater I tried some of everything. The best part the servings were ample enough I have left overs for a day or two. In addition to Chris the staff was welcoming and friendly. I will be back. Chris needs a raise for doing an amazing job!!“

“Extremely large menu, almost too large. Family owned and portions are enormous. We had a large party and they accommodated us well, food came out fast. While the food wasn’t top notch, service was on point. Decor is a little dated, but plenty of parking and fast service trumped everything else.
For something that stays open a little later, not a bad spot. Just wouldn’t go back night after night.“

“Never having had Qdoba before, this was an amazing experience, it was very much like fine dining. Greeted, and given a personalized tour of how the menu works and the pricing. The staff is so polite and friendly. We even had fun conversation as the food was being made. The food is great quality as well.
Vegetarian options: Bowls and salads“
