I had the number 4 which was 2 tacos, enchilada and chili con queso along with Mexican rice and guacamole dip.

The decorative Mexican theme was great and the art work on the seats and booths I feel none was the same but very well done. I'll stop by again when riding in the area

Stopped by Casa Ramos, one of those neighborhood spots you hit when you want good food without all…read morethe hype. Prices are fair and the food delivers. I got the carne asada al mojo ($17) and a piña colada ($15), and both were solid. The meat had good flavor and the drink was refreshing -- did not disappoint. Service was friendly, just a little slow at the start waiting for someone to take our order, so that's why it's 4 stars instead of 5. Once we ordered, everything went smooth. Restrooms were clean, which matters. Parking is street parking, but that's pretty normal around the neighborhood. Overall, it's a chill local spot with good food and prices -- I'd come back for sure. Pasamos por Casa Ramos, uno de esos lugares del barrio a los que vienes cuando quieres comer bien sin tanto show. Los precios están bien y la comida cumple. Pedí la carne asada al mojo ($17) y una piña colada ($15), y la verdad todo estuvo muy bueno. La carne tenía buen sabor y la bebida bien refrescante. El servicio fue amable, aunque sí se tardaron un poco en venir a tomar la orden, por eso le doy 4 estrellas y no 5. Ya después de ordenar, todo fluyó mejor. Los baños estaban limpios, lo cual siempre se agradece. El estacionamiento es solo en la calle, pero eso es normal por la zona. En general, es un lugar tranquilo del vecindario, con buena comida y buenos precios -- sí regresaría. ---

Inside, the space is airy and vibrant with great acoustics and a chill little bar area that sets the perfect casual vibe. We started strong with the drinks. My friend went with the house margarita while I opted for the spicy pineapple jalapeño. Both were so incredibly good that skipping a second round wasn't even an option--we doubled up! Our server was wonderfully patient and attentive, gracefully making a few extra trips to our table while we hopelessly debated what to order. I finally settled on the Pollo Relleno, which came loaded with Mexican rice, refried beans, and a taco. My friend grabbed the tres crispy tacos paired with charro beans. When the plates arrived, the presentation was a little messy--but what it lacked in looks, it more than made up for in flavor. Excellent drinks, solid comfort food, and great service. We'll definitely be back!

First, immediate bonus points for giving everyone their own salsa dish. No rationing salsa at this table! Although, the spicy salsa will cost you an extra $1.99. We tried Los Tres Tacos with two beef and one chicken, the quesabirria, and the Periban Avocado. Everything was very good. The flavors weren't quite as bold and in-your-face as I usually like my Mexican food, but it was consistently solid across the board. The charro beans and refried beans were especially delicious. My biggest complaint? Everything came out just barely warm. Not cold, but definitely not hot, and I think that made a BIG difference. Had everything arrived piping hot, this meal could have gone from "very good" to "exceptional." Overall, good food, cute spot, individual salsa bowls, and plenty worth coming back for. Next time, just bring the heat... literally.
