“great service strong drinks really good food“

“We really enjoyed this place. We were greeted by a very nice smiling man at the door who I believe may have been the owner of the restaurant. We were seated right away and brought chips and salsa. The wait staff was very friendly and service was top notch! I can highly recommend the "Top Shelf Fajita Enchiladas". They were awesome! My wife ordered the Combo Fajitas and was very pleased. Such a relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely return!“

“Great vibe“

“I always have to go inside this restaurant even though I may be getting the food to go. The reason being that the lady manager believes that, even though they have an unlimited salsa bar inside, she should only give me one little hot sauce cup per item purchased.So I have to come in and fill up several additional ones myself at the salsa bar. Now I just go inside and order the food instead of bothering with the drive-thru.“

“We have been 5 or 6 times and love it! We’ve always had excellent, friendly service including being checked on by Matt, the owner. We’ve never had disappointing food nor drinks. Highly recommend and love supporting local small businesses ??“

The food is good and love that I have other options than Frankie’s. They are offering 2 free margaritas at until they get a new license. Great out to Chips and Salsa and help support our local businesses.“

My main corse was Chicken Cajun Pasta side of garlic bread when received wasn't hot as I anticipated but it was warm. Then, order one of my favorite desserts chocolate molten cake. It was yummy as always. I will be going back and thank you to the gentlemen waiter.“

“Hands down, no questions asked, no competition..... BEST and most TENDER!!!!!steak tacos you will ever eat, I'm a blue collar worker and I eat out ALOT, I've been trying for years to find better tacos anywhere in DFW and I've never came even close! I drive from North Fort Worth all the way to Garland TX just to get these tacos, I wish i was joking, I just can't find any better tacos closer to my house.

Even there there rice and baracho beans are way better than anywhere I've ever had. Everything I've had here is great but listen to me when I tell you, GET THE STEAK TACOS!!!
the tenderness and flavor will blow your mind, definitely not what your used to in a street taco! And the sautéed onions are amazing!!!

And the owner/chef is awesome, always super friendly and talkative, and to my suprise even answered my questions when I was asking how he gets his tacos so tender.

I don't think I'll ever find better tacos but I'm still looking

“Casa Mama is an absolute gem! Every bite feels like a celebration of fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. Their dishes are beautifully balanced—rich without being overwhelming, and each flavor shines. The guacamole is the perfect creamy, zesty start, and their enchiladas? Melt-in-your-mouth amazing. You can tell each dish is made with care and a deep respect for traditional recipes. The warm, inviting atmosphere just adds to the experience, making it feel like you're dining in a close friend’s home.
