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.

We visited La Casita during Mardi Gras and had a GREAT experience! I guess in some ways it may not be the same review as one given during a normal dining experience but I still think it's important to review a place during extraordinary times as well. We bought a "package" for the the 3 parades held on Thursday night on 2/12. We arrived just as they were opening (this was our first NOLA Mardi Gras and didn't realize that it would be another hour and a half before any parade arrived!) which was probably a good thing. We got the "lay of the land," ordered a drink and began our first NOLA experience. For the package the menu was limited to 4 types of tacos plus your drinks (excluding wine and beer). Although we weren't guaranteed special parade viewing options, John Michael, one of the owners, had responded to an email I sent before we arrived to say that they were trying to get access to some grandstand viewing for folks buying the packages. Since we're vegan/vegetarian, we ordered mainly the vegetarian tacos but I splurged and got a shrimp taco. Both types were extremely good--the taco tortillas were warm and chewy and satisfying. And the insides were just as good: the seasonings in both types were tantalizing and we really enjoyed them. We were particularly impressed that they even offered an vegetarian option that was as tasty as it was! The tacos made great "traveling" food to be eaten while viewing the parades. During our eating and drinking, we met John Michael who wanted to make sure were enjoying ourselves. He had gotten access to grandstand viewing which he took us to. That was the icing on the cake! We had a blast eating our tacos and sipping our drinks while enjoying the parades from the incredible grandstands. Getting this package was the highlight of our entire NOLA Mardi Gras experience! Thank you John Micheal and La Casita for wonderful food and a great time during Mardi Gras! Whenever we return to NOLA we will DEFINITELY be back to visit La Casita!

This place seems more like a bar that serves Mexican than a full blown restaurant. They have a nice daily happy hour from 3pm to 7pm with $2 tacos, $2 domestic beer, $4 margaritas and half off chips with salsa, guacamole or queso. The tacos were larger than those you get at Rum House or Tacos and Beer. The margarita was alright but I found it small. Overall a decent place to sit at the bar and eat some tacos.
(3)Jessy A.
Found this place and I'm so glad we did. Make sure to stop in at happy hour for $5 margaritas which were delicious. They also have $2 tacos and other great deals. Coming from a Latino family, I think that this food tasted pretty authentic, especially the rice and the chips and guacamole. If you're not up for tacos and want to try something lighter, the chipotle Caesar salad is fantastic. It doesn't really taste like a Cesar salad, but it had a great creamy and spicy taste. I just tried that from someone else's plate but it was my favorite. All this great food, combined with really friendly and fast service and a hip atmosphere makes this a must visit place if you're looking for a break from Cajun cuisine.
(5)Liz F.
Great Happy Hour!!! Now they have $2 Bud Light, Miller Lite or Millers. Half price chips and salsa which were awesome. $2 tacos, $4 margaritas, $5 white sangria (which was very tasty) and $5 mojitos. So far everything we tried was very good. This would be a regular stop if I lived in NOLA.
(5)Amy W.
Small hidden place with amazing tacos and great happy hours! Server was very friendly and helped me navigate which tacos to get. Definitely would recommend if you have a free afternoon walking around new orleans
(4)Elizabeth D.
I went for the first time last night and had the guacamole and salsa to start. Considering my personal preference is for a more fresh salsa, and this one had a grilled/ smoky flavor to it, I still thought it was pretty great! The guacamole was delish as well. For dinner the beau ordered their sweet potato and pork quesadilla and I had The Mission and The Cochon de Mexicana. I don't care for sweet potato so I won't judge the quesadilla. The Cochon de Mexicana was excellent! It had the perfect mix of vinegar with the pickled cabbage and the savoriness of the pork and that sauce. Definitely my favorite and will absolutely come back specifically for this taco. The Mission was sadly not my favorite. I didn't think the flavors blended well together, it was really odd. I took two bites and then just picked the shrimp off. La Casita is a pretty small bar/restaurant, but it's really cute. It's atmosphere is pretty laid back/casual. I plan on going again!
(4)Oscar C.
I can't give this place six stars, so 5 will do I suppose. It's that good. Always A1 service and the best tacos in town. I always have the special with cilantro crema or a simple chicken taco that will knock your socks off.
(5)Kevin S.
Best tacos I've had in a long time. The service was speedy, and the staff friendly. The chips and salsa weren't anything special, but I didn't go there for that. Yummy, and I'll be back.
(4)Ed P.
Great causal taco and burrito place in the warehouse district. Small but efficient kitchen and staff. Their Guacamole is one of the best i have had and is super fresh. The variety of tacos is good and they are tasty and well prepared. Frequently offer creative and interesting taco specials. Also, like that they have now expanded their menu and offer burritos. John Michael and his team are friendly and the service is excellent. Definitely worth the trip down Julia for some fun Mexican food.
(5)Malia H.
AMAZING! Had both the vegan and veggie tacos with the spicy sauce. Still smacking my lips as I enjoy the lingering tastes of Portobello's, corn, beans, radish, avocados! And that hot sauce?! Will definitely be back!!
(5)Shane J.
Who knew if come to New Orleans to find the best tacos I've ever had? (And I lived in S.F. For four years) First, I'm vegetarian so I don't often get tacos. The texture, flavor, and presentation are off the charts. The hot sauces are amazing. The staff are friendly and service is amazing. The ambiance is wonderful, the music is incredible. I'm sad that I have to leave here. Very well done folks. I'll always come here when in New Orleans.

Walked in with my hubbub around 8:30 and the place only had 4 people at the bar. Although the place wasn't handicap accessible with the dining seats & tables, the owner, who I'm guessing, was still very helpful in accommodating us.( Yup, the chairs and tables are quite high!...you can only imagine w/ me being 4'10 and all..) Service was VERY attentive,..always asking if we needed anything else. Super nice & helpful so don't hesitate to ask about the menu, they know their stuff! Food; Salsa de Julia?..- pretty decent, good portion, flavors were all there with a kick, no sweetness( I like my salsa sweet,citrus,&&SPICY w/chunks. [$4] Guacamole & chips - guacamole had huge chunks of avocado! That's 4 thumbs up, but the chips were a bit salty. Munching through, we did find the less salty more edible ones at the bottom, so just mix them together, or ask for no salt! The dips does a job on its own. [$7] The Queso - my hubbub enjoyed it so much his words to me were..."if only you weren't pescetarian..!" ..however, the queso does seem to thicken up pretty fast. [$7] Hasta le Vegan taco- oh.. I really enjoyed this taco ! I believe the stuffings were Portobello mushrooms, corn, pico de gallo... ..and some other things I can't remember over a delish warm corn tortilla. The flavor of the corn tortilla really brought it all together almost like biting in to a soft potato wrap. The texture was what pulled me in! I could eat 10 of those corn tortillas...So simple, yet so delish. Although, I did throw off the few chunks of turnips...I don't care for turnips. [3.50$] The Mission taco - my hubbub enjoyed this little taco flavors of purple cabbage slaw, shrimp& sauciness on a warm flour tortilla. [3.50] SANGRIA - pretty strong and bubbly. I only needed a couple sips....ahhh, yes, what a good way to start a young night! Lucky us!.., drinks still had discounts even after 7pm around the time we came in.. AWESOME. All in all, great little.. Tiny.. Fun place to munch on some tacos, grub on some chips and dips, have a couple drinks, sip on some wine, let loose, and have conversations with everyone around the bar or just the place in general! ..YES, the joint is that SMALL, but so quaint. The bar is probably the place to be seated. There were tv's around and also loud music playing. 4 stars for the service, tacos, & interior. Oh!! And 10% off when you check in. Hmm....I'm going to have to catch the happy hour..!
(4)Al D.
We liked it a lot. Tacos were terrific, as were the guacamole and salsa. The chips are just okay as mentioned ad nauseum by earlier reviewers. That awesome guacamole more than compensated IMHO. Service was friendly but undermanned and a bit slow. We were in no rush though so no harm, no foul. Our waiter appeared to be one if the managers and a very nice fellow. He told us up front there would be no queso salsa because he burned it. They were also out of shrimp due to the recent Mardi Gras rush. But everything we had tasted so fresh and great we happily substituted. The drinks were very well made and reasonably priced. This place is right on the St. Charles streetcar line and there is ample street and private lot parking nearby. We will certainly return.
(4)D V.
I had been wanting to go here for happy hour for a long time. Finally did with my friend and sister. We had the best time. The margaritas were good. The salsa and guac were delicious and plentiful! Can't wait to go back.
(4)Mallory E.
My friend was in town and we were looking for a good Mexican place to eat that wasn't a bit of a drive - So I found this business on Yelp, the four star review sold me so we decided to go! We didn't get any apps but both of us got tacos (I got two a-la-carte and she got a dinner). I opted for the Cochon de Mexicana ($4) and the Hasta La Vegan ($4). I started off with the Hasta la Vegan and it was ok - I think I didn't like the grilled corn tortilla but all the insides (Portabellas, roasted cord, radishes, pico de gallo and avocado) was fresh and yummy. Once I took a bite into the Cochon de Mexicana and actually said "OMG I AM SO GLAD WE CAME HERE" the Mexican style pork was juicy and delicious, the picked cabbage was purple and yummy and the ancho crema was delish. The only reason why they got 4 stars is because my friend got her dish about 3-4 minutes before me (they were still assembling my tacos when her's were delivered). They don't have lemon for the Iced tea...but lime in the tea was pretty yummy. Overall I spent about $11 for two tacos and a tea.
(4)Dylan M.
Fun hip little place specializing in specialty tacos. The menu beyond that is very limiting but if you like tacos give it a try. They are ala cart style so you can mix and match flavors. The salsa are HOT so use caution before piling it on. The pineapple salad was larger than expected and was meh. Nice selections of beers and drinks. The two issues I had was the pace. The entrees took about 40 minutes to come out after the salads and the place was not busy. The tacos are simple and basic so not sure what took so long. And the music was cranked would have been nicer to have it a little quieter. But all in all I would go again.
(4)Charron E.
Great food! Laid back atmosphere... Casual dining. Court yard seating. Great Sangrias but watch out it won't take much...
(4)Lisa C.
The environment in this place is cute and the servers are nice but the food is far from even good. I got 2 tacos. Both were cold and the tortillas were hard. While the salsa was tasty the chips were just regular store bought tostitos. My margarita was too sweet and the bar tender poured everything so slowly it seemed as if she had no idea what she was doing. There are far better places around to try.
(1)Nathan W.
Great little find. Drinks are made with fresh ingredients. The quesdilla with sweet potatoes and pork is the best quesdilla ever. We also had tacos and salsa. Everything was fresh and incredible. Thanks for the great dinner.
(5)N L.
Thank goodness for yelp because we would've never found this place without it. It's a little hole in the wall place very charming. We happened to come on happy hour which was a great bargain we had two drinks and dinner for a little over $20 Great guacamole and simple tacos were just what we needed. Shinon the bartender was helpful and accommodating.
(5)Erin W.
I eat out...A LOT. Finding a good happy hour in New Orleans can sometimes be challenging and I stumbled onto this place by accident. Happy hour is great. As a waitress at a very popular restaurant uptown, I am constantly critiquing other people's customer service skills ( not in a pompous way, but that's just what you do in the industry). Kevin, our waiter, was top 3 I have ever had in this city. Absolutely wonderful. He was fun, attentive, and when I asked a question he gave me a definitive, no nonsense answer (the generic "what do you like better" kind of question). I really like waiting tables as I generally like most people and I know that can be difficult when you are serving for a living but I got the sense that he does too. If he doesn't, then he is EXTRA good at his job. My shrimp burrito was delicious, guac was super fresh, salsa was delicious but you can get stellar food at so many places here that I usually don't write reviews on the food alone. In fact, the only other review I have written was because the service was deplorable. I figured I should make up for that by commending an absolute gem to the service industry. Kevin, if I open a restaurant in this town, I'm poaching your ass. You are superb.
(5)Jon L.
It is an insult to call this Mexican food. Flavorless and expensive for what it is. Really not good. I understand you are busy and that is a good problem to have. Unfortunately when I walk in and everything is out, if you start scrambling to find some ingredients to fill the void, the end result is changed. We had the Fuego and Cachon, which we decided on because you where out of beans. So beans and avocados are 86, which makes perfect sense, why have two of the biggest staples of the cultures cuisine. The Fuego meat was not bad, but the cheese goo (you where out of Monterey Jack cheese) was bad. The Cachon meat had no flavor, the rice in both burritos lack seasoning and was under cooked. Also the pickled cabbage, if pickled, was not good. On top of it all the waitress was not seen after someone else dropped off our food. The bright spot the salad with pineapple dressing was good. Unfortunately you only get one chance for a first impression, my impression was I was robbed. So you won't get another chance, but I hope you can improve and what other reviewers have said is true. I
(1)Jenna M.
Wow! We just happened to be at the right place when our stomachs started to growl. The food here is excellent. The tacos were a little smaller than I thought they would be but I would have no problem ordering 2 next time! We plan on stopping back again before we head out of town for good. Yum!
(4)Mardi C.
I ordered take out. it was pretty decent. small inside, but cute, and seems like its prolly hopin come gallery shows. The best thing? is other places nearby weren't really friendly food wise, but this place? yes. I like. will come by again and spend time inside, rather than to go orders. yummmm....
(3)Jeannie B.
Stumbled upon this gem while vacationing in NOLA. This place had fantastic food, an excellent neighborhood vibe and terrific service. So good we went twice in three days. I will definitely be back if I have the opportunity to visit New Orleans again!
(5)David B.
Loved the vegan tacos, fresh ingredients and our food was carefully prepared. My tacos had portobellos, avocado, pickled cabbage corn, radishes and pico! I got the taco combination platter, with a spinach salad. Great dinner and the presentation of the food was awesome! La Casita has nice ambiance, we went for a friends bday party but could be a good date spot as well. Our server was nice and helpful, gave our big party separate checks which could be a hassle for her and she was totally friendly about it. Overall, really quality Mexican in Nola.
(4)Katrina S.
In short - some of the best tacos (delicious topping blends), delicious queso and always friendly staff. Oh and so much gluten free awareness!
(4)Janelle C.
Went for the happy hour and enjoyed white sangria,Mojitos, simply tacos of chicken, brisket along with the half price dips which were all fabulous. the staff is very friendly and the food and drink were great happy hour priced. Will be back.
(4)Jason C.
La Casita is a great little casual bar/restaurant. They just happen to sport one of the best happy hours in town. I've been several times and have come to two solid conclusions. La Casita has some of the best guacamole I've ever tried. It's the thicker style which I prefer. Also, their sweet potato and pork quesadilla is delicious. They serve it with an flavorful ancho crema that is a perfect match. It's a great blend of sweet and salty in one bite. Their prices and food keep me coming back on a regular basis. It's atmosphere is flexible enough for a weeknight or before heading out on the town. Enjoy!
(4)Mark W.
Have been here three times in the last three months. We love this place. The menu is simple, yet sophisticated in preparation. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is a smaller place but you do not feel cramped. Good appetizers. The timing of service is good. When they tell you the hot sauce has some kick-they aren't kidding.
(4)Patty H.
Awesome tacos. Great salsas. Delicious Margaritas! Happy hour 3-7pm. Friendly and attentive staff. Ask for a swirl of Mexican vanilla in you're iced tea. It's like my Abuela is in the back cooking this stuff!
(5)Jen L.
After a lovely day of lounging/eating/drinking with the amazing Vicky, Lindsay & Larissa, we decided that we were hungry again and so wandered over to La Casita for some light supper on a Saturday night since tacos sounded like the thing to do. We ended up sitting at the bar since they had reservations for a large party at all their front tables. But seriously this is a small restaurant (maybe there is a back patio in the right weather?) so don't plan on coming with a herd. We had cocktails which were fine and well priced, although we missed happy hours by about 5 minutes. The tacos were fine too. The thing is that I don't really remember what I ate. The food was fine but not really memorable. I think I ordered 2 tacos...maybe 3 and I was full. Done. The bartender was cool with splitting up our bills and we paid via a cube...which seemed weird in a restaurant setting but maybe it's the future. I feel like maybe they're still working the kinks out...there was confusion about a few thinks and I would definitely give them another try. 5 stars for the company btw.
(3)Sue M.
Super nice service, cute small atmosphere. They were so accommodating and friendly, this will be our go to spot!
(5)Ryan R.
I can't say enough about this place. Amazing margaritas, amazing tacos. Tiffany provided us with the best service. She kept the drinks and the queso coming. I will definitely be back here!!
(5)Steven J.
Awesome happy hour! 2$ domestics and 1/2 off guacamole. Good service and nice atmosphere.
(4)Robert B.
Dustin!! Great server! Happy hour was awesome! $4 margaritas. Good ones too. The simple tacos were pretty amazing. Got the brisket and carnitas. The salsa is perfect too. Being from CA where you can get great Mexican food this was up there as far as the tacos and guacamole go!
(5)Cyn B.
I love that so many new places are opening close to me... this being one of them. I was thrilled when I discovered them while looking for something to do for Cinco de Mayo. Sadly though, they aren't open on Sunday's. Cocktails: the sangria needs help but the margarita was close to perfection. Food: simple tacos fixin's were great but the tortilla needs help; the queso got hard pretty quick and the chips were nothing special... just your average tortilla chips Wait staff: Very attentive and sweet Atmosphere: it's small but I like small places; well decorated and has a nice courtyard but that could use a little sprucing up I really hope this place makes it. They are on my way home and would love it to be a regular thing. I'll come back later and update my review.
(3)Jamie B.
I love this little place! We went here with a group for happy hour. I'll admit it is a little small but they have have a back patio, had it not been freezing we could have sat out there. I loved our waitress, Heidi. She was very accommodating with our chaoticness that we brought. She willingly moved tables around to make space for us and she separated checks for us! She was on top of our orders without ever writing them down. I had the sangria which is a white sangria and it was yunmy. Dont eat the fruit in there unless you are really prepared ;-) the sweet potatoe and pork quesadilla was really good. My hubby got the gigantic burrito which puts izzos illegal burritos size to shame. The guac was half off but there was so much of it! And the queso had a kick to it plus there was pulled pork in it. I will be back!
(4)Nicole M.
Having food allergies and sensitivities I find it is hard to find a restaurant that can cater to my menu but this place did it. Not only was the service outstanding they created a plate that was not on the menu to accommodate my food allergies and it was amazing. Highly recommended!
(5)Laney P.
This place.... is great. Wow. First off, it is SUPER small. There must be about 10/15 seats in the restaurant. It's super tiny. There's a great bar to eat at! The guacamole is super creamy and indulgent. It's not watered down thank god and you can tell it's real avocados. I'm craving it right now. Also, the portion is HUGE! I basically got full off of the guacamole. The tacos are super simple and super fresh. I love the Cochon de Mexicana - the flavors work so well together. If you're in a rush, get takeout because service can be slow. But it's perfect for relaxing, enjoying the food, and talking with friends.
(5)Ana B.
Tacos..... The chips and salsa were pretty lame.....and the tacos were ok.....nothing special.....
(2)Moris B.
A little gem among all the Art Galleries on Julia St. After a stroll through the galleries a group of us ended up at La Casita. It is a very nice, small establishment that prides on all their original food ideas. Had the guacamole and queso with chips. They were both to die for. The guacamole was fresh made and very chunky. It made for a delicious texture and a must if you go visit. The queso was creamy and had a great kick to it, not sure what type of hot pepper it was made with. And then we get to their tacos. I had a combo of The Mission and the Cochon de Mexicana with some rice and beans. Both tacos were delicious and very well made. Hands down I will be visiting this place again. Monday's is Margarita Night and Tuesdays are Taco Night.
(5)Bryan H.
Best salsa I've ever had! The tacos were amazing too! I had a great dinner here and if you're staying in the warehouse district this place is an easy walk. I would have given five stars but I had to keep asking for stuff that should be a given. We didn't get plates, silverware, or napkins. I had to ask the bartender for silverware and I got two forks from him lol one of them a steak fork and try eating side dishes with that. So even though our waitress was a sweetheart the restaurant needs better service but I would still go back. The food was that good.
(4)Jenny R.
Best guacamole in town. Excellent service and great location in the art district. Definitely worth the time to walk a few blocks away from the tourist spots.
(5)Claudia L.
I really liked this place. Went there for lunch and I LOVED the Guacamole I have to say is the best in town. The shredded chicken and the carnitas tacos were excellent. However, the service is HORRIBLE, I would say the attitude of the lady behind the bar was absolutely unacceptable, I don't know her name but she wear glasses and has tatoos all over. She rushed me while I was eating, she was demanding that I pay the bill while I was savoring my delicious taco. I will go back but I will stay away from that witch, she needs to have some manners or get fired.
(4)Cindy A.
LOVED the salsa -- absolutely fresh -- not too hot, not too mild. The brisket taco was to die for. No, really. It is, hands down, the best taco I have had in Louisiana. I also enjoyed the fresh, home-cooked pinto beans. We had pleasant, attentive and efficient service.
(5)Henry H.
I love their happy hour special. Really enjoyed the tacos and margarita.
(5)Trish F.
Bought a Mardi Gras package online. Don't do this save your $$. For the amount of money you could feed 4 people plus drinks! Felt very ripped off. Buyer beware!
(1)Nick S.
Great margs, and the sweet potato quesadilla was very tasty!!! I'll be back!
(4)Kapil K.
Excellent food drinks (mojitos) and service. Id make the trip to Nawlins just to hang out for a few hours here!
(5)Brandt R.
Absolutely loved it. Went in to see about a bartending job and left with a full belly of delicious food and some great conversation. The staff is incredibly personable, and such a cozy atmosphere. Tacos were both simple yet complex. Loved it. Definitely plan on being a regular. Definitely the best happy hour in New Orleans!
(5)Karen T.
Amazing guacamole. Awesome salsa. I had a crawfish taco (when in NoLa) and it rocked!! The owner was so nice. The place is really cute. Loved it!!
(5)Jay B.
Awesome happy hour! the tacos were great and cheap, and the margaritas were strong. service wasn't great...but they just need to keep it staffed a little better. Also when I went to pay with a credit card i could only choose 20+ % as a tip..... i dont know that the server really deserved that..
(3)Dan U.
Finally a great taco spot! I'll stop being a grump now.
(5)AJ C.
I think Chi Chis made a better salsa. It was tomato sauce covered with a layer of pico de gallo. And cheap supermarket chips. On the bright side, the taco all right, but this is not a good Mexican restaurant.
(1)Andrew R.
La Casita on first glance looks like it would be a fantastic little Mexican joint, but there was plenty of disappointments on my visit. The service is pretty lousy. I found myself sitting with an empty glass far too often for my liking. The bathroom was filthy, and doubled as a storage closet for the restaurant. There was trash on the floor and it was pretty dirty in general. The food was not too good as well. I had the mission tacos, which were shrimp tacos with a pickled slaw and avocado. The slaw greatly overpowered the fresh Louisiana shrimp, what a shame. My combo came with rice and beans, and they were anything but spectacular. The rice was boring and the beans were salty with no flavor. I would not recommend this to anyone, the restaurant really needs to revamp the food, service, and bathrooms.
(2)Dennis H.
Delishious Maragrita (virgin) and the fresh "chunky" guacamole with chips were a fabulous happy hour treat. Almost went again tonight for more of the same.....
(4)Kyle F.
Friends of mine and I have eaten here several times. We have never be a bad meal. All of the ingredients are very fresh and the owner John Michael is super accommodating. This is a great pre-Saints game hot spot.
(5)Jeff K.
This place has the potential to be a 4-star place, but isn't quite there yet. We ate dinner last night during Jammin on Julia, and for one thing, this is a VAST improvement over Foodies at the same location. That place seemed to be allergic to flavor. The decor and service was very nice I thought. While I would have been happier had the final four been on TV (rather than cheerleading and high school swimming), that's not why we were there. The music was very good. The service was EXCELLENT, and we were checked on several times, though not in an annoying way. Very good. The place is nice. The courtyard will be nice when it warms up a bit too. The menu is limited, and I wish there were some more options. The tacos we had were all really nice, though a good carne asada taco would be a good addition. These are basically street food tacos with thought. Nice stuff. Ingredients all seemed fresh and was tasty. The shredded beef could use some more seasoning, but the port was delish. The salsa we got as an appetizer was freakin awesome. The rice and beans that came with the meal were great too, but maybe a bit on the salty side. That being said, this is a very limited menu. I wish they would expand to include things beyond tacos. Get a great ceviche on there! Maybe some classic mole! Proper mexican food is such a wonderland, filled with a million things beyond tacos. Some broadened flavor profiles would make this place rock. Cocktails were great! I love a good margarita. Prices were extremely fair. I would gladly pay more for a more complex creation. $8.50 for 2 tacos with rice and beans is hard to argue with. My one real complaint, and this really should be fixed immediately. The chips served with really outstanding salsa (off the appetizer menu) were standard store bought bagged chips. They are kinda crappy. You could elevate this place DRAMATICALLY if you made chips fresh. At least to this transplant from the west coast, this is what takes a godo mexican place and makes it a great mexican place. Its easy to do. It's cheap. And it makes all the difference in the world! PLEASE!

Stopped by after work the other day and I really like the vibe inside. Nice big wooden bar and cute chalk signs, good music. Food was decent but the point for me was the super-cheap happy hour drinks and snacks. I had a serious margarita - it was the best part of my meal. I also had the beans and rice & a taco and they were beans and rice & a taco. Nice and friendly staff, and something different for Julia Street. I'll be back for more of those margaritas. This is definitely a great happy hour spot to sit with one or two folks.

So yeah, tacos you can't do that wrong really but these were very meh. Worst thing?? ....store bought crappy salty chips...bad form, its a complete miss...go somewhere else!!!

I've been here a few times now -- by far the best restaurant guacamole I've ever had. I used to live in San Diego and enjoyed what I consider authentic guac in Mexico and what I like about Casita's is the focus on avocados -- not lime or tomatoes or sour cream. it's chunky and buttery and the corn chips are good. I've also had several of their specialty tacos which are good. FYI three is too many for one person but two is good. happy hour is half priced dips and drink specials. space is beautiful and cozy and the service is super friendly ftw!

I stopped in for lunch and had two of the best soft tacos I'd ever eaten! I wasn't expecting a gourmet experience, however both the pulled pork and grilled shrimps were seasoned to perfection, and the toppings were unique and delicious (ever had fresh cabbage on a taco? it's delicious!) The staff is also very friendly and fun - great experience!
(5)Todd N.
Tacos were good - Pork was better than the shrimp IMHO. We liked the salsa (fresh flavorful, heavy on cilantro which I love).
(3)J P.
Nice for the price for an after work bite!
(4)Edwin R.
Delicious and a nice reminder of the West Coast. The owners were friendly and attentive. I'm looking forward to going back ASAP.

This is a nice place. I wouldn't call it true Mexican, but tasty none the less. I recommend the Mission tacos. They are shrimp tacos with cabbage and other garnishing. The margaritas are great. I would recommend on the rocks. Happy hour drinks are $4 but if you miss it look to spend $9 a beverage. There also is a patio which I didn't try, but I'm sure this place would be fun with friends!
(4)Jodie G.
Fabulous! Best happy hour, fresh menu, Delish- drinks, if I had the time, I'd come here every day!

We used to go here quite a bit, but haven't been in a few months. The food and service was always great in the past. Today the service was completely horrible. The margarita was the worst I've ever had. The whole bottom of the glass was covered in salt. It wasn't drinkable and the server didn't offer to make me another one or to take it off the bill. The server had a really hard time taking our order. He was probably new because he didn't know the menu. He dropped off our food, but left the table so fast that we couldn't even ask for sauce for our tacos. He didn't come back to check on us until after we were finished eating. The food was okay, but very bland without sauce. Very disappointing.

New Mexican place of which there are very few in Nola especially downtown. Good, fresh rice; not dry and clumpy. Same for tortillas. Very good, fresh food overall. Happy hour looks to be decent also.
(4)Daisy K.
Absolutely LOVE~ I ordered take out (its right around the corner from my office) and I thought the carnitas tacos were divine - very fresh, the pico was fantastic. The queso is OUT OF THIS WORLD. Creamy, awesome. People below have had issues with the chips - I dont really have a complaint there. It works for me - thought such amazing queso does deserve a chip worthy of its caliber :) Heading back there today for lunch - friends have been for happy hour and they thought it was great. Will update soon!
(5)Jami J.
This place is amazing!!!! great food, great margaritas, and great ambiance! The service amazing, super friendly people! GO EAT AND DRINK HERE!!!!!
(5)Matt M.
I really enjoyed La Casita. The service could have been a little faster, but the delay was hardly noticeable. The server was very knowledgeable on the menu and had a great personality. The tables are a little cramped for a party of more than 2, but they have little control over that and have maximized the space very well. Their carnitas tacos were fantastic! I really like the ancho serrano (read: hot) salsa they offered as a topping. Also, the guac was the perfect consistency (chunky with big pieces of tomato and onion). Great spot for lunch and they do happy hour from 3-6.
(4)Ann N.
Absolutely perfect! We just wanted a quick, inexpensive snack and their tacos were excellent! Hasta la vegan, veggie and shredded chicken were just great! Margarita was delicious and the service was wonderful.
(5)Geoff S.
Excellent food and service. The taco combination platter allows you to choose among a bevy of fresh local ingredients. The accompanying beans and rice are perfectly seasoned. Don't miss happy hour.
(5)Tray P.
New place. Good food. Friendly service. Great happy hour prices. I will be back
(4)Cara V.
I was in town for a few days and was using yelp to scope out places to eat. This was the best place we ate at by far. Their happy hour special is great. Highly recommend. Plus with corn shell tacos they are gluten free!

Back on my taco binge, I had to find a new place to get my fixing. I like this little place, a lot. Came in on a Wednesday night around 8 o'clock to a dimly lit, friendly-faced, moderately occupied restaurant. We were able to grab a table right away and considering it was such a nice night, we decided to step out back to dine in the courtyard. There's plenty of seating here, they've done well with the tight warehouse district space. Our server was friendly, but the service was standard. I remember it taking a moment to get our orders together as they input them using an iPad. Seems their U.I. could use a little upgrade for user friendliness. Margaritas were pretty good, I usually get headaches from em' but I also didn't pound four of them. For the app we got the tres queso (didn't add any meat) which was nice. Came with a ton of chips and you're gonna want to get at that queso fast because we all know what happens when we let it sit for a few minutes. I would have liked a little more of a spicy kick in the queso tho, but I'd get them again. My date ordered the sweet potato quesadilla witch she (and i) liked a lot, careful tho because they come out HOT! I went with the fuego burrito with a salad and that thing was massive! It's rare that I have to box up a meal but I had to, I would've died trying to put it all away that night. It could have been all the chips I decimated also. The two of us ate for about $30 or so, not a bad deal. I can see myself returning for more, we were very pleased with the food. One more thing, my date had been here before and they charged her for something that was wrong, so long story short, she was told that they would put her name in "the book" and they would take care of it next time. Well folks, there is no "the book" so if it happens to you, don't fall for it. Get something written from management.

Any place that has a 7 day happy hour is a winner in my book! Everything is great about this place, location, vibe, service, drinks, and food! This is a great spot to hit after work for happy hour, but even better for weekends! The crowd is always manageable! The place is rather small, but there's just enough seating! There's even a nice little courtyard out back. Their happy hour menu is perfect with $2 simple tacos and four options to pick from! Shoot, at $2 a pop you might as well get all four options! They have $4 regular mojitos and margaritas, add a buck if you want to get strawberry or watermelon! Personally my favorites are the strawberry and watermelon, because of the awesome fresh chunks of fruit! The servers are awesome, they check on you regularly, and they make sure your glass is never empty! I love a little treasure cove like this!

Hidden gem on Julia Street! I've been here before with an ex...pretty sure he ruined my experience that time around and I drowned myself in happy hour libations...so my memory is kinda foggy on that visit lol Hence why I'm just getting to this review. This time around (with friends) I enjoyed myself thoroughly! Happy hour (EVERYDAY...even on weekends) drinks were really good...especially the mojitos! I love the fresh muddled strawberries. And the food was awesome...$2 simple tacos...we ordered all meat..but the veggie option looked very appeasing. Have to get back to try that. And half off on queso, guac, and salsa is the way to my heart! Seating is kinda limited inside, but there's courtyard seating in the back. Not sure if its for events or regular dining patrons. Service was on point and the two bartenders who doubled as waitresses did a superb job of making sure your happy hour glass stayed full. It was pretty busy here for a Saturday afternoon...not so much during the week.

So I came here again on a Saturday evening for happy hour and tacos. I must say that this time was MUCH better. We sat at the bar, seeing at the restaurant was pretty empty, which was really nice. We had a couple happy hour margaritas - much better this time. The rim was fully salted, the 'ritas were nice and cold, and they tasted pretty good. We ordered the happy hour tacos and guac. My husband actually really like the veggie taco, so I might have to try that one next time. I think I'm also going be bold and go off the happy hour menu and try the Fuego taco. I'm actually looking forward to going back.
(4)Susanna H.
Happy hour margaritas and simple tacos? Yes please! We were in New Orleans for a girl's trip and really wanted Mexican one night, so we decided on La Casita. The place was so good that we came back the next day for happy hour again. I would say that the best taco was the El Fuego. It has shredded brisket, pico, salsa verde. It is covered in jack cheese then flame torched. But honestly, everything that I had was very good and very well seasoned. We also ordered the 3 cheese queso and the guacamole for the table, and both tasted great. Out of the two, I liked he guacamole the best. The margaritas were also very good. I had both the watermelon and the lime for happy hour. My friend had the pineapple cilantro rita, and she said it was one of the best she has every had. If you haven't been to this place, you should go!
(5)Jim G.
Based on overall experience - a little overrated. What they do good - salsa, queso and guac were all bueno, but de chips themselves were not great (kinda reminded me of El Gato Negro). The margaritas were good (try ginger-mint marg) but the service of said margs was a little slow. The menu is pretty limited-basically they have brisket, chicken and pork in a crock pot and the dishes consist of tacos or burritos from same, but the brisket taco was pretty good. I'd go back again for drinks and chips and salsa/guac/queso hope for quicker service I think. But if I wanted a full bodied mex-tex meal I'd probably look elsewhere.
(3)Everett B.
Great spot to grab a drink or some super fresh Mexican food. Here are the goods and bads: 1. Happy hour. The food here is delicious but the real reason to show up is for happy hour. $2 guacamole and $4 margaritas and sangria would be worth it for mediocre affair. This is well beyond mediocre. 2. Sangria. Their margaritas are good but their sangrias where it's at. I'm not usually a fan of white sangria but theirs is delicious. They make it with brandy I believe. 3. Veggie friendly. The selection here isn't huge but they have enough to put together a great veggie meal (veggie taco, hasta la vegan taco, rice and beans, and guacamole). Always a plus in my book. 4. Mission Taco. Inspired by my favorite area of San Fransisco, this is the best thing on the menu. 5. Freshness. Whatever taco you do get the tortillas are crazy fresh, which is where you start with any good taco. The veggies are very crisp and the guacamole comes in 2nd only to the table-side guacamole at El Gato Nego. 6. Size. The place is very small (5-6 tables and a bar). It can get a bit cramped and a party of more than 2 could have a wait at peak times and you may have to snag a bar spot if you don't want to wait. This has quickly become one of my favorite quick bite and a drink places in the CBD. The staff is friendly, they use square to accept payment which makes it easy to split checks and the food is delicious. Overall Rating: A-
(4)Edwin D.
Small cozy place packed with friendly people. Service was incredible. We had the 3 quesos dip which is mild spicy with a soft taste of cheese. Also the guacamole which to we added a frisk of lime to make it perfect. Do not miss the Fuego and Mission tacos!
(5)Sarah Hope F.
This place is so cute. Margaritas were great ,the guacamole fantastic and the tacos yummy. The bartender was very friendly and attentive and knowledgeable. She suggested the brisket and the Carnitas tacos. They did not disappoint very very good. Definitely must go eat here will not disappoint!
(5)Kristin B.
Excuse my French, but Holy Shit, Shove Me In It... La Casita's Hazelnut Avocado Mousse just made sweet, sweet love to my taste buds and kissed me on the forehead whilst whispering sweet nothings and slipped away into the afternoon like a dream...(btw- Heidi is a local treasure)
(5)Cristy C.
What a lovely little gem in my new neighborhood. Glad to have a go-to spot just a few blocks away. I'm a fan but I do have one small change recommendation on their shrimp ceviche - go a little easier on the horseradish sauce. They use it to top it off. It's excellent and tastes great, once I take a spoonful and remove it. The combination of flavors is awesome. The tacos are good too. I wish they would offer a "carne asada" option. The tacos are fulfilling and worth the price. They even offer my favorite Latin drink which is Horchata. If you haven't tried it, now would be a good time. It's a sweet drink, so order it towards the end of your meal or as a secondary drink. It's non-alcoholic incase you weren't sure. The place is small so unless it's slow. I don't recommend planning on bringing a large group here. Keep it around 4 to be seated comfortably. The bar is large but is very close to the nearby tables, leaving maybe 3 feet of space for walking room for servers. It's a tight squeeze. Their mojito is a little sweet for my liking, then again a lot of things are because I avoid sugar as much as possible. Thinking a romantic sweet and intimate dinner? This is a great choice!

Randomly ended up at this place while waiting for the Krewe De Vieux parade this year. As someone who grew up in LA, eating tacos 3x + a week, I can honestly say that this place is surprisingly brilliant. Do they taste 100% authentic? No, but being or not being authentic doesn't necessarily translate to being delicious. I'd say this place is 90% a great Mexican taco, and 10% amazingly New Orleans. I got the shrimp taco. It at first tasted like an authentic taco, but the sauce had a hint of remoulade flavor in it, which made it the perfect amalgam of NOLA and Mexican cuisine. It was fresh, not fishy at all, and most importantly delicious. I also got a Cochon taco. It was one of those times where I took a bite and kind of had to swear. It was so damn good. The pork was perfect. It had the texture of an authentic taco, but the flavor of New Orleans! I could not get enough of the taco. It was very fresh and every ingredient worked well with one another. I don't know if I would send a tourist here, but if I were a local I'd be here quite often. -1 star only because it was kind of expensive compared to the area, but that was probably because they had a different menu for the event.

We stopped into this cozy spot after a day at the Oyster Festival and walking around the Warehouse district. Happy Hour margaritas are handmade and the best! $2 tacos and fresh, tasty and filling. Excellent find!
(5)Rich H.
Outstanding all around. Fresh salsa and great service for our party of 9. A must if you want Mexican while in NOLA
(5)Jenna M.
This place is pretty good for some tacos! As stated in other reviews, I am pretty picky. I just get the tacos with meat only....but they're still great! I usually get the rice and beans, as well. The rice is a hit or miss; sometimes it's good other times not so much. Last time I went, it was overseasoned and undercooked. The beans, on the other hand, are always very good. I really like the queso a lot, and the guacomole is not bad, either. I highly recommend the carnitas taco. I also like the brisket taco. All of the servers are very friendly and efficient.

La Casita wasn't exactly what I pictured when I think of a Mexican restaurant. It doesn't have the typical decor, it is a darker small bar that has two TVs over the main bar so that you can watch a game while you grab a meal and a drink. While there is no gluten free menu. Most of their menu items, i.e. tacos can be server on a corn tortilla or as a bowl as it is a safer option. The staff was very open in making this suggestion as they do store the corn and flour tortillas next to each other. I do have to commend them for understanding what cross contamination was without having to be the one to bring it up or having to explain it. The food itself was good and filling, plus it was on the cheaper side. Plus, if you happen to go during Happy Hour, which is from 3- 7 pm, you can grab a drink without breaking the bank after just one. Overall, the staff was friendly, to newcomers and regulars alike, and helpful. If I happen to be in the area again, I would come back to dine again.
(4)Mariam A.
Go here during happy hour - they are practically giving the food and margs away. In all honesty my food and drinks were top notch quality and super super inexpensive. Despite being super busy, the staff was super attentive, friendly, and patient.
(5)A A.
Nothing special. Also happy hour deal of $2 domestic beer is total lie. I ordered the NOLA beer - the place is in New Orleans, to be precise-, could not get any domestic than thar, and they charged me $9. Hey, i am a tourist, suck my blood dude... Quick update: same beer, just $5 on le petite grocery's menu, one of the hippest places. Really? Did you need to steal those a few dollars from me? Pathetic.
(1)Brent W.
We stopped in after the art walk to get some drinks and a snack. Our server was the bartender and he was very friendly and attentive. It's a high end taco joint. Tacos ran around $5, which is quite steep. They were good, but not $5 good. I would suggest getting a taco without cheese. The salsa and guacamole were both good. The shrimp cocktail (or ceviche, i'm not sure) had wasabi in it which was also weird. The payment method was also strange. They give you a tablet to pay with and some folks (will remain nameless) could not figure out how to use it.
(3)Richie K.
Dragged my bum leg over to La Casita for some happy hour specials. Went for the simple margarita, some veggie tacos, and the La Casita enselada. The margarita, made with Herra Dura, Cointreau, lime juice, and organic agave nectar, was tasty but not overpowering. The simple veggie tacos included pinto beans, pico de gallo, a ton of pickled cabbage, and avocado for good measure. The filing was so good that I could have done without the tortillas. Finally, the house salad, the dish I was most excited about. Spinach, avocado, fresh pineapple chunks, radishes, and red onion drizzled with a sweet pineapple cilantro vinaigrette. Great food and killer service at a totally reasonable price point.
(5)Collette C.
Everything is delicioussss. Their queso, margaritas, and tacos. Y U M. And the service is always super and friendly.
(5)Jason B.
What a find LA casita is! I finally made it for happy hour and everything was great - margaritas, salsa. Tacos, and the service was fantastic. I'll be back for sure PS happy hour 3-7
(5)Galia B.
Delicious, fresh, affordable, surprisingly authentic. Friendliest folks south of the delta. Buttery house guacamole and smoky salsa. My pork pozole special hit all the right notes. La Casita truly deserves more cred/recognition!
(5)Julie B.
Great place! The guacamole is incredible. Friendly service and love the quaint atmosphere. Will definitely come back!

YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THESE MISSISSIPPI BOYS: John Michael, Mark & Dustin. Even with the potentially debilitating Julia street repairs and closing, this cozy little Mexican food restaurant is thriving: a testament to its good food and familial management team. THEY'RE WORKING ON THE CHIPS! My #1 complaint (kitchen isn't vented for fryer) ONE OF BEST DAILY HAPPY HOURS IN THE CBD: catering and delivery to Warehouse & CBD! SUPPORT!
(4)Taylor R.
My first review of La Casita was right after their opening - and I didn't love it. But I've been back two times recently and it has improved so much! I loved the tacos and super-friendly service. I'll be back!
(4)Matt T.
Amazing fresh and tasty seafood burrito. Place is pretty non-descript. Service was fairly bad. (Server first told me they couldn't make a daiquiri, then left her shift without telling anyone.) Manager spoke to us and was very interested in our input. I asked if they just opened because the ambiance was sparse and service was weak. She replied that the restaurant was two years old, but that it was hard to keep good help. Plate was bare of anything except my burrito. That needs some work too. Prices are probably too low. Burrito was excellent, flavorful, interesting, well balanced, lots of shrimp. The rest of the experience needed some work.
(4)Elizabeth P.
This place has the best tacos I have ever had! In fact all the food was delicious. Having celiac disease it's hard to find places to eat but the staff at this restaurant was very knowledgeable as well as very helpful in making sure nothing was cross contaminated. I highly recommend going here!
(5)Crystal C.
Do not go here if you are looking for a value for your money. Their Tres Quesos comes in a tiny container around the size of mashed potatoes that you get from popeyes. No lie. It's $11.00 ELEVEN DOLLARS FOR CHIPS AND DIP!!!! Those chips better be dusted in gold for that price in my opinion! To add insult to injury there are no prices on their menus. Is this because they are too ashamed of their horrendous prices?
(1)Christina T.
Went again for happy hour. Slightly different experience. The bartender wasn't the friendliest. :( The food was still good though. I had the con queso dip and fish tacos. Really good food.
(3)John H.
Like it. Good food and drinks. Happy hour 1/2 off prices on drinks and Apps. Very friendly staff. I've been for lunch several time and dinner once. Specialty tacos were very good. Chips and dip sampler was real good. I made the mistake of ordering full size salsa, avo and cheese dips once. A little pricey. I'd ask for the prices before diving into the chips and assorted dips. They come in a few different sizes. Overall a nice neighborhood place for drinks and a little mexican fare. Hard to match in that part of the city.
(4)Greg M.
Any Mexican eatery awarded four stars on Cinco de Mayo, earns every one of them! La Casita didn't diassapoint. Sure, we waited for a table and had to order margaritas twice, but they were well worth the wait, especially at "happy hour" pricing. I'll agree with a fellow reviewer that the chips leave something to be desired, but once you dip them into the fresh and perfectly seasoned guacamole and salsa, you'll forget all about the chips. All of the street tacos (shrimp, crawfish, carnitas, chicken & veggie) were fresh and delicious, as well. The vibe is more bar, than restaurant, but very comfortable and relaxed. If the inside is packed, check the courtyard for additional seating. These guys have a good thing going. Can't wait to go back on any other day!
(4)Natalie P.
Great little hole in the wall!!! Sounds weird but the pork and sweet potato quesadilla is amazing!!!very little potato ...just the right amount of zing. Salsa homemade delish! Tacos were street style and the beans and rice were good as well. Would have given 5 stars if chips were home made. Ice cold beer a plus!!!
(4)Alison R.
La Casita surpassed my expectations! I had read the Yelp reviews recommending this as a good happy hour spot, so I was excited when my boyfriend and I were finally able to make it down there. We each ordered a margarita ($4) and two veggie tacos (beans, purple cabbage, pico, and avocado, $2), and we split chips with guacamole ($4). The whole meal came to ~$20 and was a ton of food! Over 12 hours later and I am still stuffed! Ok, maybe too much food. In the future I may nix the guacamole (but how can I?! It was sooo much guac and sooo delicious!) or just order 1 taco to avoid the painful stuffedness I've been experiencing all day. I went in expecting this to be a good place for a cheap margarita and some chips but was pleased to find that the food is actually top notch. The tacos are served on griddled corn tortillas, and when we asked about hot sauce the very informed server brought us all three house-made sauces to try. My favorite was the jalapeño-- spicy and fresh! This is more than just cheap drinks, it's a nice atmosphere with quality Mexican food and down to earth service. Zero complaints! Highly recommend! (Especially for vegan and vegetarian patrons!)
