I could smell the restroom was backed up not pleasant 😒
I honestly was hoping that I could leave a pleasant review but I can't. I was seated in the section that I was across from the kitchen area. I am going to start with the hospitality and well it was horrible. The server that I had was rude. He literally looked at my family while my husband and son were still eating and said are y'all ready to leave. We were in shock. I ordered chicken tenders, they came out slimy when tearing the tenders apart. I ordered honey mustard dipping sauce, the waiter had poured the honey mustard sauce on my fries. The only friendly server was a female with tattoos all on her arms. She helped me send the food back. My waiter was rude to her about approaching his table and I am glad that she did. First kind face I saw in the entire wait staff. The server tries to charge me for a dish that was uneatable. While sitting there I observed staff dropping take out cups on the floor and still using them to put queso on for a to go order. One was taking food off the plate while the food was waiting for the server to get the food. None of the staff had on hair nets or gloves. Very unsanitary and goes against dhec regulations. So eat there at your own discretion!!!

Love going here on the 5th 15th and 25th of every month for $1.99 margaritas.
Low carb choices were very limited. I had the shrimp brochette. It was a little overcooked and shrimp were farm raised.

I’ve loved Casa Olé since I was a teenager growing up in Pasadena, TX, and I always try to stop in for a meal whenever I’m visiting the area. On my last trip, I wasn’t able to visit a Houston location, so I stopped in Lufkin to get my Casa Olé fix and was looking forward to sharing the meal with my mother.
Unfortunately, we were very disappointed. The meal was surprisingly bland, and even the green dip tasted watered down. I ordered the chicken fajita enchiladas, but what I received wasn’t chicken fajita meat—it was cubed chicken breast with a few grill marks. The meat was dry and lacked flavor, which isn’t what I’ve come to expect from Casa Olé.
I hope the restaurant can get the food quality back to the Casa Olé standards I’ve always enjoyed.
I do want to add that the restaurant was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. No complaints at all about the service—just the food itself.

Use to love it, but all the old servers left. Anna been managing this place for years left. Alan gone. Just strange. I'll give a update review next time
