We have been eating at Mi Casa for over 25 years. The food is great and they really have an incredible margarita! Friendly, fast service and fair prices are a plus too. It has become our family tradition to meet there almost weekly for dinner. We love the tacos and the burritos with cheese and sauce. Pros: Great Food, Friendly staff, Good value more

hands down best Mexican food in OC 1/29/2006

by saltcreek at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

I've been coming to Mi Casa for 30 years and this is by far my favorite food - Mexican or otherwise. There is a major following for this restaurant for a reason. The chips and salsa? Nothing comes close! Everything you order is twice what you'd get in a typical Mexican restuarant and is absolutely delicious. The Mexian Pizza is awesome! About three years ago Mi Casa was voted best Mexican food in OC - Even though they lost their #1 spot to one of these chain restaurants (Oh, please!) this is still the same great place, and the only Mexican restaurant my kids will ask to go. Pros: everything Cons: too far away more

Best Margaritas in OC 1/26/2006

by alittlealot at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

This restaurant has the best margaritas around! Not too sweet and go down smooth. The chips and salsa are amazing. Lots of food for the money - one taco with rice and beans is more than a meal. The salads are crispy and the blue cheese dressing is excellent! Service is great too. Pros: good food, margaritas Cons: crowded on weekends more

Mexican Food? NO WAY! 10/13/2005

by gina33 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

This restaurant was not good at all! Here visiting CA, my boyfriend and I heard that this restaurant has a good rep. But wow was this wrong! The food - well, where was it? It was ALL cheese. And thats no lie. The entire plate was cheese. The service was soooo slow and the 'great margarita' that the restaurant has its name for...well, it was all tequila. If you're a heavy drinking, maybe you would like it. But I like to TASTE my drinks and this was the worst margarita I have ever had! I guess it was just a poor and disappinting experience all around. I do not reccomend this mexican restaurant to anyone! Cons: service, food more

Hey! where's my taco... 8/18/2005

by kvargas2005 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

Honest! If you love cheese...MiCasa is your place. Sometimes it's hard figure out the chili rellano to the enchilada, because it's covered in cheese! Taco's you can barely open your mouth to bite it because it's loaded with yummy beef, lettace and CHEESE!, it all spills down onto the plate with the rice and bean that are also covered in melted cheese. They take no reservations... so head over to the bar in the back, drink a few margs, let the kids fill up on colas and chip/salsa, by then your name will be called - either you will be to buzzed to eat - wanting another margarita or will be ready for feast of cheese with taco, tostadas, enchiladas, burritos and oh yeah... more cheese! Pros: Quick Service, value for your food, Great Leftovers! Cons: Not healthy food more

YUMMY! 12/28/2004

by bifftannen77 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

I have been enjoying this restaurant ever since I was very small, and my family, friends and I continue to love it even more as time flies by. The tacos are amazing, be sure to try the fish tacos, the best anywhere in my opinion. Delicious beans and rice! The waiteresses are very friendly, and the bar tender pours a mean margarita! Best chips and salsa hands down! Only thing, Mi Casa is VERY popular and I would suggest going for an early dinner - around 5 ish, to avoid the inevitable wait! If you do go later, go to the bar for a margarita and chips while you wait! more
