See why customers LOVE Casa Garcia!
I love this little Mexican Food Restaurant. It's tucked back in the corner of a small strip center hidden from street view. Food is awesome, and portions huge. I had an Enchilada Plate. My daughter had Combination Plate with Taco, and Tamale. Both were Homemade and Fresh. Service is impeccable! Salsa fresh made and spicy!
Jan W – Metairie
One of the best Mexican restaurants in Metairie. They have been there for years. Food is always hot, fresh and consistent. Never a bad meal here. Tacos and seafood enchiladas are always a good choice. Service is better than average. They are busy at the normal times. It's a large restaurant, but may be a short wait at times.
Tim K – Kenner
Last time I got a Taco salad with steak and there were hardly any steak. Also the shell was a little soggy. Thankfully the chips and salsa were perfect and so was their amazing flan. Whatever you eat or drink, make sure to order the flan for dessert. It's the best you will taste in these parts...
