These tamales are amazing. They're a little on the expensive side, but they're bigger than average too.

I had lunch with some coworkers at Casa Mama recently, and since I don't spend much time in…read moreRockwall, I enjoyed checking out the cute downtown area. Parking took a little hunting, but that's downtown for you. Consider it a brief appetizer of frustration. Once inside, the restaurant was quiet, and the service was excellent. Our drinks never ran dry, and the chips and salsa runneth over. Both were really good, which made it difficult to remember we had actual meals coming. We also ordered queso, because apparently chips need options. It wasn't my favorite; the flavor was okay, but it was THICK. Less "dip your chip" and more "check your chip's structural integrity." I'd probably skip it next time. On our server's recommendation, I tried the brisket enchiladas. Definitely a departure from the traditional version: the tortillas were filled with mashed potatoes, with brisket on top and sauce underneath. Those potatoes soaked up the sauce like they'd been assigned the job, which made the dish a bit greasy. That said, the flavor was really good. Would I come back? Absolutely. I'd probably explore some other dishes next time, but the friendly service, quiet atmosphere, and steady supply of chips and salsa made this a pleasant lunch. Worth a stop if you're in the area; just leave a few extra minutes for the downtown parking scavenger hunt.

The staff is great and the food is pretty good! Queso is a must and the birria tacos absolute slap…read more The flan was also a hit with our group. The drinks were not that good though. I got a ranch water, which was weak and the seltzer seemed kind of flat. Others in my group got on-the-rocks margs and were likewise not impressed.

Today was a take-out order. I chose Chicken Fajitas Cheese Quesadillas. (This actually was a big…read morequesadilla cut into 4 slices). I have dined here since the opened their storefront location. I notice that staff changes-over every few months. Yes, housing is expensive in Rockwall, TX, so the workers here all commute from other cities... which is quite a chore the way streets have filled with traffic with new arrivals fleeing from other States. Whoever the owners are, and/or investors, I suggest a commuter van for your employees. You have so much potential with this location, and a wealthy clientele all around here. Today, I found the restaurant to be clean & orderly at 12:30 PM. Staff politely informed me that Breakfast Dishes are NOT served after 12:00 Noon, or High Noon in cowboy lingo, partner! Okay, then I ordered take-out 3 Quesadillas & Sides. You have many protein options to choose from to STUFF your cheese quesadillas. I chose Chicken Fajitas, and Charro Beans (comes with red sauce cup, green sauce cup, cream cup, guacamole cup) you can get Refried Beans option. Spanish Rice comes with any Beans option. I wanted to park at Lake Hubbard, eat this delicious plate, toss rice to the birds, watch all the boats going out & coming in. Very good take-out packaging, and a decent meal overall.
