Casa Lola Kitchen de Mexico

Randomly found this restaurant on our drive back home and decided to drop by and grab dinner. We were a group of 7 who were able to be accommodated for outside seating. The food was excellent and the service was very attentive. We had Luis as our server and he did great at the end of a long day.

Started off with pico de gallo and fresh, warm chips which we devoured immediately. Those chips were amazing and we were hungry as well. The pico was also very fresh and we also got a habanero salsa that was very flavorful and not too spicy. We ordered guacamole which was made fresh, tableside and was really good. We tried 2 drinks, Casa Lola and Tamarita. Both had good amounts of alcohol, not your average watered down swill that is peddled in the name of booze and costs an arm and a leg. These drinks were strong but tasted pretty nice, clean and refreshing. If you like tamarind then go for the Tamarita.

We tried the steak specials like Arrachera and Rib Eye Fajitas. The ribeyes were insanely good value given that it was part of a Steak Friday Special. Not only did they taste amazing, but their sizes were absolutely huge and the veggies and the roasted pepper on the side made for amazing fajitas with the corn and flour tortillas. The ribeyes were served flaming. The Arrachera was a flat iron steak, carved up in pieces, also very delicious with the saucy drizzle on top and the cactus salad on the side. I wish i had ordered a cactus salad on the side, but the ribeye was so huge that I did not have any more space. We also got Camarones a la diabla, which was delectable, spicy (flavorful but not hot!) and had mushrooms as well, in a red sauce. The garlic rice that came with it, was an amazing accompaniment. Steak Alhambres and maybe Birria tacos were also ordered, but i don't recall trying them since i was so full from my ribeye even after sharing, and still had leftovers to take to go. My friends mentioned enjoying steak alhambres as well, even after trying the arrachera and the ribeye. So all the steak dishes ended up being great.

Even though we came in a bit late for dinner time, we were not rushed at all. The service was prompt and the food came out quite fast. At the end, Luis mentioned that even if it's close to closing time, that we can take our time to finish our food and order desserts. We shared a sweet and succulent tres leches cake which was incredible. As i finished my dinner, packed my to-go box and went to use the restroom, i noticed that everyone else had left and that Luis and another staff member were packing up for the night. As we were the only group outside we didn't know that everyone else had already packed up and left. Thanks once again for not rushing us through the dinner and providing impeccable service till the end.

In addition to the service and the main dishes, small things like the fresh, warm chips, the freshly made guac and the garlic rice left a big impression as well. Even though we sat outside the ambience indoors seemed really nice.

The restrooms were clean and free parking spots were available right next to the restaurant. Overall, I had a great time and would like to revisit and try out their tortas, molletes, queso con chorizo, pozole, birria and last but not the least, their flan.

This place is seriously a hidden gem. My boyfriend and I were able to walk there from our apartment and were sat immediately. The BEST salsa and chips, amazing atmosphere and even better service. 100% recommend!

They have really good chips and salsa! I enjoy coming here when the weather is nice and their patio is open. Service has always been quick and friendly. Food pricing is fair for the quality you get. The 3 taco plate (with rice and beans) is my go-to. You can choose the toppings in each taco as well. Good selection of Mexican beer on tap and their cocktails are tasty!

Luis was an extremely good server. We ate outdoors & sat at the only dirty table. He very graciously took care of quickly cleaning the table & continued to be very attentive to our needs.

Luis was awesome! Took care of us and our pup! Great margaritas!

This is my and my mums favorite place on in the Beaverton area. The food is always delicious, the patio is shaded and intimate, and the service is always pleasent. Luis was even kind enough to bring a treat and water out for our dog, after asking politely.

Thanks you Luis for excellent service! We will be back!

Friendly staff, good food, great atmosphere.

Was super excited to try this place so close to home and was extremely let down. While it was very busy and seemed super short staffed we didn’t get drinks until 30 minutes after being seated and our order wasn’t taken until 50 minutes in. We got the mole enchiladas and they were warm at best. The sauce on top was cold. The rice, basically jasmine rice. $88 for two drinks and two mediocre dishes. We will not be returning.

Casa Lola is the perfect authentic Mexican kitchen for SW Beaverton/ Tigard. They do not offer organic foods or locally sourced foods (that would easily give them 5 stars).

Their chips & salsa were delicious. Chips were light and salty. Salsa was chunky and flavorful pico de gallo style. We had the guacamole, ceviche, and the steak and rice bowl. Wishing I had the afternoon to spare to test out their fresh squeezed like margaritas.

I’ve been coming to Casa Lola for years now. The food is amazing the ingredients are fresh and the drinks are hand crafted. The most important thing to me is the service, checking in timely and even helping me with my questions. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone interested in quality Mexican food.

Food, was blaaahhhhh. Chicken way overcooked, chewy like leather. Sent back for beria, and got chicken again. By then we were there an hour & I was so over it, just wanted to get the heck outta there. Payed $50 for lunch that was... Chef clearly did not taste what he was serving his guests. Amature hour. Step your game up Lola's.

Happened upon this place accidentally as the pub on the hill was closed to minors. Great little place. I thought the food was excellent and the service was fantastic. Everyone who helped serve our group(4 kids) were so patient!
