Was picking up a door dash that was supposed to be ready within 5 minutes of being here. I was told it would be ready within 5 minutes. My order time for the order to be picked up by was 6:40. It's currently 7:00 and I've seen multiple people come and get orders before me. The order I picked up was small! read more

This one missed the mark for me. I hate writing less than glowing reviews but unfortunately, there's not much I can rave about here. The waitress was nice and food came out fairly quick. The tacos were loaded with meat and flavorful. But that's about the extent of the good things to note. The restaurant itself was uncomfortably hot and the music was louder than necessary. To be fair, that's usually a given but even after requesting a seat on the patio to avoid the heat of the interior building, the music seemed to be even louder outside. It made it hard to even read over the menu and made the breaks between songs feel like a welcomed repreive. I don't want to be one to harp on every little thing so I'll just note that for the price, the food and restaurant as a whole was not up to par. Right off the bat, I had my concerns when the salsa was practically flavorless and the chips were stale. I decided to order the "Little Mexico" plate since it was a sampling of many items and I figured it would give me the best idea of how the food was here. My husband had the Al pastor tacos which seemed to be a solid option. They were loaded with meat and he seemed to enjoy them. There was even enough leftover to take home for lunch tomorrow. My dish was hot and loaded with food as well. It could've really used a side of guacamole salad or something like what accompanies other dishes to help break up the amount of cheese and other heavy ingredients. We ended up asking for a side of guacamole and sour cream, which helped a lot. The guacamole was really good and if I visit again, I will be sure to order it. Overall, the dish was ok but not something I would order again. The tamale was the obvious standout so it was worth trying just to know what I would want to order next time. Overall, everything seemed to lack flavor which is surprising in a Mexican restaurant. For nearly $50 for two dishes and two drinks (no alcohol or appetizers) I would rather eat elsewhere. I have yet to find a solid Mexican restaurant in this area so I had high hopes but the search continues. Maybe I just caught them on a bad night but given how many restaurants are in the area, I'm not sure when I'll work them back in for another shot. Hopefully others have a better experience. If you decide to check this place out, I would recommend the guacamole and/or tacos. They also seem to have good drink specials if you're looking for a place to have drinks. read more

I'm new to the area from the University area. I tried this place once and I feel like I eat here constantly now. Well to be fair I get my food to go however the food is great. The service when I go in is always on par. Everyone seems friendly and welcoming. I have only had 3 things here because I'm hooked on them I guess ha ha. The steak quesadilla which is great. Loaded full with steak and it taste great. I always ask for extra cheese because there is so much meat I need to hold it together better which is a great problem to have ha. I have also had the steak taco which is the same steak as above with lettuce cheese and I always get pico as well. It's pretty aight but I like the beef taco better personally. Maybe it's because my parents always did beef tacos but it just feels right to me. Same toppings, it was hitting for sure. Sorry no pictures the food doesn't make it far enough for the camera to catch it. read more

Great authentic Mexican food they will make it as you want it. Love it there. Always polite

I would give this experience zero stars if I could. I ordered extra queso but didn't find it in my bag. When I asked the host for a cup, she smiled and assured me it was included, saying it was on the food. However, both of my entrees were drenched in queso sauce, making them soupy and unappetizing. It felt like either an attempt to be an asshole because extra sauce was ordered or an attempt to mask the taste of the burnt food (still tasted like charcoal btw). I'm very disappointed with both the quality of the food and the price I paid. read more

Our friend at our table had a Zyn pouch in her drink and got zero apology and didn't even offer to take her meal or drink off the ticket. Would not recommend this place and all 10 of us will not be coming back. read more

Depends on the day. The staff here are not as accommodating as they should be. Most of the hostesses are young and act like they don't want to be there. There is no friendly greeting, just a "how many?" Once you sit, chips and salsa are put on your table without a word spoken. The service is okay depending on who you get but 90% of the time it's not someone who knows how to even smile. I don't mind the broken English but I'd think it's pretty universal to know how to be friendly and refill drinks, or ask if you need anything. Apparently not the case here, which is why we have switched to La Patria close by. Their service and food is outstanding!!!! read more

Fun atmosphere. Easy parking. Friendly staff. Good margarita ! Lots of good choices on the menu

Casa Garcia, you are so convenient to my house and I wanted to like you more but it's always just ok. And because there are so many Mexican food choices around you have to be more than OK to get my repeat business on a consistent basis. On my visit last night, we sat on the patio which was enclosed and heated, but I still was cold. And I'm not someone who gets horribly cold so I imagine a normal person would be very uncomfortable out there. My fault, we chose to sit out there instead of waiting on a table inside, but just know that before making your selection. Our complimentary chips and salsa arrived quickly with our drinks. Service is swift and neutral, not friendly or unpleasant. The salsa is ok, lacks spice and the chips had an odd chemical flavor, perhaps old oil? The cheese dip we got was delicious. I got the Taco Loco, which is basically a taco salad. They just shape the bowl into a huge taco shape. It was...you guessed it...just ok. Nothing special at all. I wouldn't get it again. The rice was more promising, but needed some of that cheese dip and salsa to add flavor. If you are looking for a place to grab a bite and don't expect much else than rapid food that is edible, this place will be just fine for you. read more

Casa Garcia - Taco Loco - Mexican Near Me - Denver, North Carolina

This restaurant has an authentic Mexican look to it. The food is pretty good for NC. Coming from San Diego which is about 30 minutes from the Mexican border, it's hard to find something that I'm used to. The salsa that they serve with the chips has good flavor but is not spicy at all. I ask for the spicy salsa and that's only a little spicy. The chips are really good and fresh. They also serve chicken breast which is always a good thing. They have some unique items on the menu and some include liquid cheese which is more Tex-Mex or is it NC-Mex? I'm not sure. The prices here are ridiculously low especially for the lunch menu. Such a great deal. Service is good and they do get busy at lunch time. read more

Jacquelyn was our server. She did an outstanding job with a smile. The food was unbelievably fresh and good. This was the first time I saw food hit the table looking just like the picture. read more

Stopped in for lunch after picking up family at the airport. Seated immediately at a large table since there was 7 of us. Chips and salsa was a good starter as the server took our drink orders and our food order. Food came in a reasonable time. The amount of food per serving was crazy. Tremendous amount of food. The only thing that was off was the server. Although sufficient with drinks and orders, he acted as if he had to be there but wanted to be somewhere else. Other servers were smiling and great attitudes, not our guy. read more

Don't pick up food from Caleb there. He will short you on your cheese dip and chips. And have a smirk on his face while he does it! Women there are awesome and foods pretty good. Dude ruined it for me though. Matzalan has just as good for the same or less prices. I'm out read more

Solid Mexican eatery in the exploding town of Denver. We had a good experience and the staff was nice but it's nothing outstanding or really bad. Just a good Mexican restaurant. read more

Stopped by here for lunch one day last week, and while it took a few minutes to get my server to finally settle down from running around (must have been no school because a lot of families were there at the time) I was shocked at how fast I got my food. Got the cheese steak burrito, and the carne asada was good, not amazing, but it was tender and had good flavor. My only real issue was waiting for service when I needed a refill, my check, and even when I went to the counter to pay. But definitely a place i'll be willing to try again since I'm in that area often for work read more

Good place to stop by after a long day of shopping at Lowes or Walmart. Been here several times. Nice selection. Appears to be a la cart with some items order 1 taco or 2 taco. The fajitas a good. Prices are not expensive. Wait staff is friendly and brings your order pronto. read more

The staff are rude, i came here on my lunch break hoping to relax, i stood at the host stand for 10 minutes while all the waiters walked by, they didn't acknowledge me or let me know some one will be right with you. Very rude!!! I'm in town for a day and this is not how I wanted it to feel. read more

Waiter said a total of ten words during the entire visit. My meal had no taste and I was charged a dollar for a side of sour cream. No refill on the chips but my water stayed full. Restaurant is clean, that's what the 2 stars is for. read more

Ordered to go and out of 4 plates, none of the dinners were right. I don't know who fixed our order but definitely none of the plates were right. And the food was awful. I could not believe how it did not even taste good. We all decided we would never go back. read more

Come food, long ticket ticket times. Maybe pur server/manager was having a bad day but it was bad.

I am still on the never ending quest to find Mexican food comparable to my all time favorite Mexican joint in Charlotte (Miguel's), and because my boyfriend is not onboard with my favorite place (phooey) and because I crave Mexican food more than any other food, we ended up here last night. The Salsa needs work. It's more like ketchup but still decent enough. Boyfriend had the platter that included pretty much everything, I tasted his taco and the beef was seasoned properly, so kudos there. No yellow cheese is always a plus. It must be the white stuff on Mexican dishes. He took half of his dinner home for tomorrows lunch, and so did I, so portions are huge. I had one of their Carnitas dishes and it was pretty good. I do prefer a crisper, almost fried outer crust on the pork cubes. These were soft and tender so still good, but not what I prefer. The place was packed and service was good. It's not my Miguel's, but its convenient and decent enough that I will definitely return and try other items. read more

I can not even give this restaurant a rating. What a horrible experience. the service is less than stellar. our order was not correct. The televisions were playing a Spanish speaking movie that was disgusting. We had our 6 year old granddaughter with us that got so upset with the despicable movie we had to leave. I have never had such a terrible meal in a restaurant and a horrifying experience. we will never go to this restaurant again! read more

Casa Garcia is a great place to eat, food is very good and service was also very good

Always friendly staff, fresh chips and salsa, food arrives fast and is always delicious. I love the Burrito Mexicano and it's big enough to share. The Chile rellenos have no meat, but I LOVED them. The bean dip is FABULOUS! read more

me and my family love you guys and your food we drive almost an hour to get here ! go eat it !!!

When this operation first opened, I tried it with my family and was sorely disappointed. I did not go back for years until a friend talked it up. Since that revisit quite some time ago, this has become one of my favorite restaurants in the local area; in fact, this is my "go to" place for a quick lunch or dinner. I usually order fajitas or the El Volcan (my favorite), but I occasionally change it up and try other dishes. For a fast, inexpensive lunch, try the Speedy Gonzales or one of the multitude of lunch specials. You'll find the food to be extremely well priced- lunch or dinner costs far less than most restaurants and the quality and flavors are very good. Staff is courteous and friendly. I personally feel that this is the best Mexican restaurant in the Denver area. read more

Casa Garcia is probably the best all around Mexican restaurant in Denver. Here's the ranking: 1) Casa Garcia - Very good food, good drinks, great service. 2) Mazatlan - The overall best food, does not serve alcohol, great service. 3) Margaritas - Nice atmosphere, cool take on a drink menu (especially the selection of margaritas), mediocre food, atrocious service. If Mazatlan served drinks, Casa Garcia might be in a little more trouble, but since they don't, Casa Garcia is the Undisputed Mexiweight Champion of the World... err... Denver. I definitely recommend their chori queso as a starter. Chorizo + Cheese = gah yeah. Though I have been to Casa Garcia (and the others) on many occasions, the Camarones a la Diabla, aka "Shrimp of Satan" (\m/ metal \m/) is my favorite dish on the menu. Delicious, very spicy shrimp in diabla sauce that isn't too thick and overpowering. I also recommend the fajitas, if you're into a safer, more conservative choice. Don't forget the jumbo margarita to wash it all down. Tell em Josh sent you, which won't mean anything at all and will get you funny looks, but do it anyways. [shrug] read more

I love this restaurant! The service is always great and the servers are friendly and the food not only comes out to you promptly but it is always delicious. My favorite is the Mariachi platter, lots of food and oh so delicious, and their sweet tea is perfect! I will go back again and again! read more

Best Mexican place ever! The food is astonishing, for a pretty cheap price too. Very, very clean. Funny employees, once one of them told me it was squid soup and I was so confused because it was beans and a quesadilla! I come here all the time. And I come there so much that they even said see you tomorrow when we left, we all had a good laugh. My favorite restaurant. read more

Tonight we went to Casa Garcia for the first time and were very disappointed - I was so excited to order the Mexican Fajita with chicken, beef and shrimp but it was so bland, meat was over cooked and had so much black char spots on it. The actual tortilla was even dry. My boyfriend got a side taco which had absolutely no seasoning in it. His entree was ok, lacking seasoning as well. For $38 we will stick with La Unica or try other locations nearby. read more

We have eaten here probably a dozen times over the last 7 1/2 years simply because there are no other Mexican restaurants nearby. Well this past Saturday night I ordered take-out. Huge mistake! The (ground) beef burrito tasted like it had old over cooked burnt meat in it. It was barely eatable. The salsa is very bland, has no flavor and/or heat. The only reason I gave them 2 stars instead of 1 is because in the past it was mediocre at best. This was the last time we will eat here. read more

Yes, food is so so , too salty afraid to continuing heating left half untouched and sent to the trash

Moving here from California we knew we Soi und miss real Mexican food. Casa Garcia's carnitas is the closest thing to real, fresh carnitas we have found in NC thus far. Prices are fair, and the staff is super friendly. Definitely a place we frequent to get our carnitas fix. read more

If you are looking for a less authentic style Mexican place in the Denver area to get your fix of pollo feliz or enchiladas, this place isn't bad. Their menu definitely lacks the yumminess you would get from a central ave or south Blvd real Mexican joint, but it still delivers a decent meal. I enjoy the outdoor seating, the inside is a little crowded. I've been here a few times and the service has been mostly good, only had one mediocre server so far. The salsa tastes like ketchup. read more

We stopped by last night for tacos and normally the food is wonderful there and the service is great. Last night I had soft tacos the taco shells did not stay together they were so sloppy wet and then when you held the taco up clear water just ran out of all over the place and the meat had absolutely no taste at all. read more

Soooo good! This is my new favorite Mexican place. I got the Pollo Garcia and it was amazing read more

The food here is good. They make one dish, the pollo con crema, that is better than other local places.

To be completely honest the only reason i came into this joint was to get some air conditioning and i was very disappointed to walk into to room temperature establishment, air conditioning definitely set on low. Then I receive the chips and they are very crunchy and bland, not a good combo if you ask me. Their queso.... eh.... it was alright at best. My brother claims their lemons are "nasty" read more

First time here. Food very good. More food than you can eat. Great prices. Service very slow, wasnt attentive.

The name of this restaurant would have you believing that it's just another stereotypical Mexican restaurant and you would be right and you would be wrong. While their menu has typical Mexican food, they put their own spin that elevates the flavor! My husband had tacos al gusto - chorizo, carnitas, and asada, and I had pollo fundido. Everything was grilled to perfection, and I mean this, it's delicious! read more
