    I've been to Casa De Oro a few times when I'm visiting IA from CA. They offer yummy Mexican food at a good price. The frozen margaritas are plentiful, strong and delicious and they have friendly service. Highly recommend.

    The staff is super friendly, and service was great. Food was delicious and had a really good portion size. We are just visiting family for a few weeks and we have been 4 times already! Great place!

    Nice, lots of seating, helpful prompt wait staff. Carne Asada was very good, salsa has a little zip chips good. I've had Mexican all over the US, this is very good.

    I had a chicken burrito and it was delish! The chips and salsa were really good and just the right spicy. This CA girl is happy to have good Mexican food close to home in Iowa!

    Lunch specials run until 3pm and are outstanding-great value/good portions/delicious. I received a full basket of chips and delicious salsa (liquidy consistency but filled with chopped tomatoes, onions, and cilantro) right after sitting down. Service is prompt and no-frills...just my style. Food comes out fast from the kitchen and is piping hot. With 20% tip and tax (and ice water as my drink of choice), it was $7.00 total. For the quantity and quality of food you get for such a reasonable price, why go anywhere else?

    Delicious food for a great value. You get fresh chips and salsa immediately when you sit down. The building is clean and very well maintained. Family owned restaurant - you will feel welcomed by the staff. I consistently get the Casa de Oro burrito. It's $9.75 and clearly a very big burrito. No other Mexican restaurant I've been to in Iowa will give you that much food for roughly $10. It's not just packed full of rice either - PLENTY of the meat you choose and lots of vegetables.

    I found this place to be okay and have mixed emotions on the food. I will say chips and salsa were excellent and service was good.

    For a small town in the middle of Iowa it's as authentic as you'll get. It's also very uncommon to find a spot like this in the meat and potatoes for every meal Midwest. Honestly, I was expecting a barely above deplorable performance from Casa De Oro. I'm not being harsh, just realistic. And to be honest, I suggested Taco Johns above this place; but I was pleasantly surprised. There are a few notable things about Casa De Oro. It is a small, family owned business that has a handful of restaurants in the surrounding area that are all managed by the same family. I certainly like the idea of that. This particular location is fairly large and very accommodating. We were with a very large group and the staff had no problems keeping pace. The service was excellent. Within a couple minutes of sitting down we all had our drinks ordered and fresh hot chips and salsa on the table. The salsa was decent with just the right amount of heat and sweet. The menu is pretty typical of what you might see at any given Mexican restaurant. It is fairly large and has a lot of options for combination plates, a la cart items, and desserts. They also had a few lunch specials that come with beans and rice. I had a lunch special that consisted of a chicken enchilada with mole and beans and rice on the side. Now, mole is an art and some places just don't or can't do it right. I wasn't expecting the most authentic flavors, so with that being said, I wasn't too disappointed with what I got on the plate. It was much sweeter than it should have been without the slow heat of the peppers (IMO), and it had a fairly runny consistency. The enchilada itself was good with a lot of nice quality chicken inside. I might add that the could held back on the cheese a little. The beans were good, but those are hard to mess up and the rice was rice. I never eat much of it anyway. My wife ordered a guacamole tostada and a chicken enchilada. The guacamole was 95% tomatoes and was very disappointing. Overall, you're going to get a good Mexican meal in the heartland of America. I'm sure I'll return when I'm back home to visit the folks again, although, Tacos Johns is just down the road and I love me some potato oles. HAHA!

    As a Southern California native, Casa de Oro is my favorite eating establishment in Creston. They have a great range of authentic and Mexi-American dishes. I removed a star for not carrying albodigas soup or horchata. While it is a very clean establishment, it often smells of pinesol or some sort of cleaner in the building, which is a bit to strong while I am eating. But, the food is so good, I remain loyal.

    So delicious! I had the Camerones Azteca appetizer for lunch and it was great. I was in town on business and found this lovely Mexican restaurant. I felt great giving this locally owned place my business. I will definitely visit this restaurant again if I find myself in the area again.

    Love how fast their service is. Love the chips and salsa. All things on their menu are excellent. Their drinks are all really good. They are STRONG... I came here for my 21st birthday... (Among many other times) but all in all, great service, speedy, well priced, always happy! **side note, their plates really are VERY HOT. They set them down in front of you, and say "hot plate"... But seriously. Don't touch your plate...

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
