    Happy hour chicken quesadilla and margarita
    Natalie P.

    I've been here a couple of times now, and am always a bit disappointed with the food. The chicken quesadilla was just ok - the chicken had a strange sort of barbecue flavor. The service is decent, and the inside is huge - a good place to take big parties because I've never seen it anywhere close to full. I will say this past time I went during happy hour, and their happy hour deals are incredible! I got a pretty large chicken quesadilla AND a margarita for only $10!

    Love casa corona. We would come very often. Bunch of coworkers and i were out there for a work trip so we would go at least twice a week. If your a drinker They have a great deal for $12 you get a 22oz beer with a choice of 4 different meals. Thursday beers are half off. Cant beat that. COLDEST beers.

    Delicious, fulfilling and priced just right !

    Food was delicious! Cheese Enchiladas with green sauce and we asked to add veggies inside and they did. It was great! Veggies were cooked perfectly and the green sauce was delicious! Steak and chicken fajitas were good, got the meal for 2 and they had 2 separate plates with rice and beans and guacamole. Attentive employees and our server was great as well. Definitely recommend this place and will be back again.

    The food is decent and they give you a lot. I have been here for happy hour with friends and the service has been good but this time I brought my kids in for dinner and the service seemed nonexistent beyond the busser who brought our drinks. I almost walked out before our order was finally taken after sitting there for so long. There was no apology given. Then after finishing dinner, I asked if we could look at the menu so we could decide on dessert and the answer was, "No." and the server started to try to memorize the menu but couldn't, so then she asked if we'd like to see a menu, and me and the kids looked at each other like wtf? Anyways, when our check was delivered, the young man said he'd be back to take care of it when we're ready. I placed my card on the bill on the table and waited 15-20 minutes. He never came back. We got tired of waiting. I cannot recommend coming here with all the other Mexican restaurants in town unless you just want margaritas.

    Cute little ambience but I was left waiting here for way too long after I finished this :(

    The food is actually pretty solid but the service was terrible. There aren't a ton of dining options in the town of Ridgecrest. I was craving for Mexican and saw that this spot had some good reviews. Decided to give a try before heading back to Airbnb. This seems to be a popular locals spot as there were several people waiting to eat inside. It was a very warm day, so it makes sense. Since most people wanted a seat indoors, I decided to sit out on the patio. Most of the patio space was converted parking spots (the COVID setup). Service started out slow from the jump. I sat at the table for a while without a menu. Finally a gentleman arrived to give me a menu and he brought out some chips and salsa. I decided to order a two item combination plate with a chicken enchilada and a crispy taco along with a banana margarita. Took a while for my food to arrive, but when it did, it looked yummy. The banana margarita was delicious! Didn't really taste much alcohol in it, but it was still tasty. The combo plate was overall pretty good. The crispy taco was very good but the enchilada was dry and could have used more sauce on top. The beans and rice were solid. Portions are really big and I ended up asking for a to-go box. So, this is when it really when downhill with the service. Nobody ever stopped back by my table from the time I got my food until the time I had to ASK someone for a box. When I asked for a to-go box, the guy took my plate and I assumed that he was going to box my food up. When he didn't come back for another 5 minutes, I got concerned. He finally came back but he was delivering food to another table. I stopped him on his way back to the kitchen and asked him where my leftovers were, and he apologized and said that he threw them away. Um WTF?????? I knew he could see that I was fuming! Why the FAAAACK would you throw it away? I clearly stated that I wanted a to-go box! Even if he was confused, I'm sure that he saw that only half the plate was eaten. Why would anyone throw a half eaten plate of food in the trash! What in the actual f*ck?! That's literally money down the drain. He didn't even offer to discount the meal or make me another to-go meal. Instead when I asked for my check, he brought the bill and NEVER CAME BACK TO MY TABLE TO GET IT! I was counting. 17 MINUTES waiting for him to take my card for payment! The fool never even came back out of the kitchen! I was already pissed about him throwing my leftovers away, and now this sh*t?! Luckily I had just enough cash to cover the bill. I slapped it down and bounded out of there. I mean woooow, way to ruin the evening! Because of this experience, I will never come back here again even though the food and margarita were pretty good. It's not worth it.

    This is my favorite Mexican food place to eat in Ridgecrest! But the service truly is hit or miss. I've had great service and I've had extremely poor service multiple times. I got the buffet once and wasn't thrilled with that since some of the food I got was actually cold. That being said, I come here for the food, not the service. I've always enjoyed the margaritas I've gotten here too! The stuff ordered from the menu has always been delicious. Love their red enchilada sauce and their burritos are very good size! Recently split a Sampler Platter with someone and it was easily enough to feed 3 people. The bean and cheese quesadillas were soooo good. Had no idea how delicious such a simple thing could be.

    Casa Corona is still one of our favorite places in Ridgecrest! Consistently good food, great service, and good ambiance! Still recommend this place to anyone who asks. From the owners, to the staff, cleanliness, etc. just an all around great place to eat.

    Chicken enchiladas with green sauce. Whole beans on the side were delicious!

    Disappointed. I ordered online to pay at the restaurant…read more 1) The bill was supposed to be $56.77. When I got there i paid with my card and they charged me $67.61, more than $10 different and it wasn't due tip. I know everywhere they charge you 3% more if you pay with card instead of cash, but it was 19% more. 2) I got a burrito and it was 2/3 the size of a burrito from chipotle for the same price and the food was as salty. 3) I got the combo meal but the fajita didn't come with the wrap nor did I get my drink. I won't come here again. If the food is good I won't mind the higher cost, but they need to be transparent about it. But the food was ok (don't like how salty it was) and the unethical regarding the lack of transparency with the charges is making me not wanting to come back.

Wednesdays are the best day to visit this restaurant since they have tacos for $1.49 a piece all day on Wednesdays as they're special. We were just lucky enough to be there on a Wednesday so we swung in and had some tasty tacos I had the Carnitas tacos which were delicious note that these are street tacos so they are a little on the small side but well worth the money great service from the staff there we had the nicest server I think her name is Sylvia. Highly recommended if you find yourself in Ridgecrest any day of the week, but especially on Wednesday.

    We ate here and at Ale's steakhouse across town and they are very similar to me in terms of value,…read morethough they do differ. First, the good. It's nice that there is a restaurant in town with fresh fish. Our server was awesome. We were going to a tiki themed place (which you should 100% try to find if you are in town) afterwards and the server shared some cool info about it when we mentioned it. I ordered fish and chips, against my better judgement, and it was just OK. I'm a fan of beer batter that builds up more than a thin crust on the fish, and this wasn't that. On top of that, the cod was a little over cooked (a bit of a theme for the other Ale's as well). That said, the flavor profile was good and their tartar sauce was on point. I had the option for seasoned fries or steak fries and opted for the steak fries to save some sodium intake. I'd probably shorten my life slightly and get the seasoned fries next time. My wife had a salad that was very similar to the other Ale's -- lots of iceberg lettuce and overcooked chicken. We also had the clam chowder, which had a good consistency but was just a touch fishy. I still enjoyed it, though. They have a pretty good selection of beer and other drinks, as well. The decor is informal and overall I liked the place. Between the two Ale's I'd probably give a slight nod to the original, but they are very similar restaurants other than the focus on seafood here.

    Stopping on my way to Anaheim and Ale's came up as one of the highest rated places. It was…read moredefinitely decent. Just gotta drop a star because our waitress was a bit short and irritable, and the food was really nothing crazy amazing. Ended up having the shrimp and lobster fries appetizer which was pretty yummy, the shrimp on it is the best part. Even the kids loved the fries and ended up also splitting a chicken sandwich that was pretty basic, but cooked well and had a tasty bun. Wife and I split a pastrami burger, and gotta say the pastrami was really good, that was a great choice. It had a bunch of creamy cheese sauce on it as well and was gone in seconds. Ambiance was fine, place was really clean, and service was SUPER QUICK. One critique is when we asked for extra plates to split out food, the waitress told us they were out of plates because they used them all on the party that was in there. This was at max a party of 10, and the restaurant had to only have 10 more people in it total. Kinda weird to be out of plates at 20% capacity... she did end up getting us additional "trays" to use. Totally fine, just a bit odd. All in all, if you need some quick grub, stop in here on your way through. Price was pretty fair, 2 burgers, and an appetizer with ice teas for $50. Decent.
