The food was delicious and the server friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The Top Shelf Margarita was killer, too! It's a bit of a drive, but worth it on occasion. read more

If you're craving authentic Mexican food, Casa Garcia absolutely delivers. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of energy--it feels like a place where people genuinely enjoy gathering. The food is the real highlight. Everything tastes fresh and flavorful, from the perfectly seasoned fajitas to the rich, comforting enchiladas and their menudo is my favorite!! The chips and salsa are addictive (seriously, it's hard to stop eating them), and the portions are generous without sacrificing quality. Service was attentive and friendly without being overbearing. The staff made sure everything was just right and kept things running smoothly even when it got busy. Overall, Casa Garcia is a go-to spot for delicious Mexican food, great service, and a lively vibe. Definitely a place worth coming back to again and again! read more

Meh I judge a Mexican restaurant by their chips & salsa. First impressions, you know... They took us to a dirty table. I asked for it to be cleaned while I went to wash my hands. My friend was seated when I returned and the table showed no signs of being wiped down. Pools of water from the previous diners were still very visible. The chips & salsa were just blah. Not a fan, so I didn't eat them . But I guess it does help the waistline. House Margarita was good. White Cheese enchiladas (that's actually what they were called) were very good and I loved that I could order refried BLACK beans. Not many places offer that. Our server was great. I would not return to this place bc of first impressions and I really did not like the chips & salsa. I would order "to go", though. My meal was very good. read more

The food is great ... I wouldn't keep ordering if it wasn't. But somehow, every single delivery order is missing items. I've called as a friendly heads up, my partner has spoken to the manager in person and it still keeps happening. Literally happened last night and again this morning. (I order from here often if you can't tell lol) At this point it feels less like a mistake and more like a pattern. Love the food, hate playing "what didn't make it into the bag" every time I order. It is pushing me to go elsewhere. read more

I really enjoyed this place! Went for lunch and got the Taco plate at the bar. #delish The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Went back same day for dinner and had a great experience. Daughter wanted tacos, so I ordered the same plate for her. NOTE: Lunch taco order comes with 2-tacos. Dinner order comes with 3-tacos. My favorite part about dinner was the Live Mariachi band! Took dinner up a notch - for sure. Can't wait to return. read more

Reliable Tex Mex spot. I'll admit it. My family comes to Casa Garcia's a little too much but it is so convenient and the food is solid. They do have live mariachi some nights which can be a little loud for kids but I appreciate them trying to create an entertaining atmosphere. If you're looking for breakfast or brunch, please check them out. The Migas a la Mexicana are delicious! read more

My family and I were seated in the patio and was told the service would be slow. We understood and wanted to enjoy the beautiful weather on Mother's Day. I proceeded to the bar to get my wife and I a drink and over heard the waiter at the cash register say "i don't know who sat them out there but I ain't helping them". I gathered my family and the menus to take to the welcoming station to leave and he followed us to the door to let everyone know that I was a "problem" and an "ass". I've been here many times before and really enjoyed the atmosphere but we will not be going back. I would never think that behavior to customers especially to a mother on Mother's Day would not be acceptable. I hope that there will be training provided to avoid losing customers in the future. read more

Worst breakfast I've ever had I ordered the Carne Asada with eggs, chorizo, potato, and sausage, and I got some soupy beef stew with scrambled eggs with salsa on top another set of scrambled eggs with chorizo in it and then chunky potatoes.

Food is amazing! Eaten here several times and I've NEVER been disappointed! Service can be lacking sometimes depending on the waiter, but the food is fast arriving so you don't have time to be unhappy about it! Restaurant is large, quiet and clean! read more

I ordered Caldo de Res for pickup on Friday April 24. In general it's good soup except that it was very salty. This is the second time this has happened. read more

Their riserva margarita was REALLY good, better than Torchy's! The Charro beans were a little bland but with some salt and pepper they perked up. The enchiladas were delicious and my wife had the Botaniita appetizer and liked it. Service was pretty good and the patio is really nice and they play good music. Dog friendly! Kid friendly as well read more

"There's something wonderful about drinking in the afternoon.........." ― Anthony Bourdain On a lazy Monday afterrnoon I found myself at Casa Carcia's with a good friend discussing our busted March Madness brackets, baseball, football, and how to solve all the world's problems. The empty bar at Garcia's was the perfect venue. Our barkeep, Tony, took care of us from start to finish. Garcia's has some interesting cocktails and an expansive beer list. We opted for their Tex Mex version of an Old Fashioned. They use mezcal instead of whiskey and the mezcal gives it a smoky flavor. These were dangerously good. Typically, chips and salsa was provided pronto. These were better than most but the green chile sauce was the star here by adding some heat. They have the usual traditional Tex Mex menu and some not so usual like offering Menudo. I ordered their beef enchiladas lunch special. This was a great value for the price. My lunch arrived with two beef enchiladas topped with chile con carne and yellow cheese. The Mexican rice and refried beans were wonderful sides. The beef was marinated perfectly and very tender. Garcia's goes right into our local Tex Mex rotation. read more

It was good when it first opened the past 2 times we had gone service was horrible by hostess front entrance unfortunately our food was cold it's been a big disappointment.

It is at best a 2 1/2 star restaurant. Some folks refer to Tex-Mex that's not spicy as new Tex-Mex. To me, it is Yankee-Mex catering to transplants who don't appreciate real Tex-Mex or Texas BBQ. This is OK for that crowd. Inside, it is clean and new but without much Tex-Mex ambiance. Food is priced about average. Taste is definitely very mild and without unique taste. Service is good. My wife had beef enchiladas and I had green chicken enchiladas. The salsa seemed like slightly spicy tomato paste without any heat. The chips were uniquely similar to cheaper chips out of HEB. In other words, they weren't very good. I would look elsewhere in that area for Tex-Mex. read more

DO NOT RECOMMEND! 1st time here. My husband and I (White) went for breakfast. There were only 3 tables with customers when we walked in. We got seated right away, got drinks right away then waited to order our food.. And waited and waited... 17 min later, 3 request for our waitor that went ignored by the hostess. Table of 3 (white) came in, never recognized by any of the staff.. 2 other (Spanish) couples came in, got their drinks and food orders immediately. Finally got a manager who took our order then while grabbing the menu spilled water and coffee on my husband.. DONE! We paid for our coffee and left. Completely racist restaurant! We watched it! Horrible service! read more

We really like Casa Garcias. The location is super easy to get to. The staff way pleasant and helpful. The restaurant itself is clean and pleasant. We like the food and go monthly. They have a plethora of options. It's more TexMex which is to our liking. I recommend them. read more

Food was decent, margaritas are great, went on a Friday evening and the service and band were amazing!

Went last night a few people in restaurants- we were seated - given menus . Chips were served. We sat there for 10 minutes eating chips. Again not busy. No one spoke or acknowledged us or anything- after more than 10 minutes of waiting we got up - told hostess no one waited on us. All she said was sorry. Now the crowds are coming in. We live in Lago Vista tx- so this a drive to eat at restaurants- I really wanted carne gusida- but I didn't get it and neither did my daughter get food. Really disappointed and upset . Not sure when or even if I will go back. If they had been busy or in middle of shift change I would have understood issue. read more

The service was not good. seemed like they had only one server snd it took long for simple things especially The food was ok not what it should be I'm sorry you should consider a revamp of food lacks presentation and the lady cleaning tables along with other guys seemed to be upset they should of managed floor better at least and everyone should smile sadly we won't be back oh yeah fajitas portion was mostly nopales when you so basically rather Nuevo Mexico at wolf ranch than this place sorry to say they won't last if they don't change read more

Paid $15 for mediocre menudo. They call it a large but it's a small compared to other places (see pics). Won't be ordering that again !!! read more

Friday night we stopped by Casa Garcias for dinner. It was pretty full sounding when you opened the door. We were sat quickly and our waiter Caesar was chatting with us within five minutes of sitting.We got our drinks and queso quickly. Which we were grateful for, when we first tried them out right after they opened, service was a bit slow. There was a live Mariachi band floating around and that was a nice treat. With the Mariachi's and a pretty full house, we weren't able to chat, couldn't hear each other. Only thing I would change is something to help with acoustics. The food was great, we had queso, Mexican lemonade, tea to start. For dinner the mister had chicken fajitas enchiladas with ranchero sauce, burracho beans and rice. I had the Carne guisada enchiladas, refried beans and rice. Both were seasoned well and arrived quickly. In a previous visit I tried carne guisada as a meal and I highly recommend. I like this location and love that they have a tortilla making station. We will be back, maybe not on a Friday night lol, we are older and prefer it a bit quieter when we eat read more

$30 for huevos rancheros.... Gratuity was included in the bill. We had a 6 top table. 20% added for "large party" and 18% added for "small party". How can a table be a small and large party at the same time? They tacked on 38% for no reason. Leads me to believe that the place is so terrible no one tips.... So they add that to every bill just so they can legally get by for their waiting staff. Super bland tex mex with no flavor.... No flare... no culture. Very deceiving place because the exterior and interior is pretty nice, but don't be fooled. read more

Good place for a family dinner. The food here is consistently good. The chicken is always moist and tender. The sauces are flavorful. The margaritas are great with many options. The only reason for only four stars is the service. There is room for improvement here. Often servers disappear for extended periods of time. I've also had a couple instances where apparently my server didn't realize it was their table and didn't show up for an extended period. This is a great place to bring the family and enjoy a good meal. read more

We ordered migas a la Mexicans. We got a cool plate of migas with hardly any cheese on it. They were short staffed our waitress offered to bring us the ranchers sauce and cheese. It showed up 15 minutes later. The waitress was waiting tables and tending bar. We asked for a manager that showed 15 minutes later bypassing our table to hand a receipt to the hostess then wandered over to our table. I explained the situation and the ngr stated she looked at the plate it was done correctly. I informed her that was not eggs Mexicans according to the menu and she told me I was wrong! I was trying to be quiet and polite so asked her to remove the charges to which she responded. We will remake it. No thank you I had other things to do. She was rude and defensive obviously no customer service skills. This is casa garcias off the Ronald Reagan. If you do not have enough wait staff then seat your customers in one area. They were seating in both dinning area the bar and the outside patio. Didn't make sense. Worst experience ever! read more

Taco Cabana would be a better choice than Casa Garcia's. We ordered: - 1 queso appetizer - 1 order of shrimp tacos with black beans and rice - 1 Ultimo Combo The total was around $43 plus tip. The atmosphere was quite loud due to a mariachi band, so if that's not your scene, this restaurant might not be the best option. - Queso: 2/5 - Taco Cabana's queso is better and cheaper. - Shrimp Taco Plate: 1/5 - The tacos were drenched in sauce, the shrimp lacked grill marks and seemed more like they were warmed up in a pan, not to mention there was no seasoning. The black beans and rice were cold. - Ultimo Combo: 3/5 - The stuffed avocado was decent, though the presentation was poor. The tamale was disappointing, and the gordita was more like a sandwich, poorly assembled. read more

I came with the family after church. We ordered 2 menudos, tamales and a fajita wrap. I saw other reviews mention that the menudo wasn't good or below average, but as someone who's had true authentic menudo, it was pretty good. The server said they were short staffed that day but we still got our food fairly quickly. So I'm sure they were working very hard! My fajita wrap was great. It came with Spanish rice which was maybe a 7.5/10 IMO, still good. I didn't get to try the tamales but I was told they were delicious. Overall I'll give the Service a 4.5/5 And the Food 4/5 read more

Challenging to get into the restaurant without numerous stairs. Had to go down several storefronts to access a ramp. First visit here. Despite my walker and husband's cane host schlepped us halfway through the mostly empty restaurant passing many empty tables. Restaurant was uncomfortably cold. Waiter was prompt for drink and food order. Freebie salsa and chips did not taste or look homemade. Not even tomato flavor. No flavor - not even salt. I tried a combo to taste several different items. Green enchiladas with chicken, taco and tostada. Chicken was moist but flavorless. Green sauce was the only flavor but hardly any of it. Very disappointing - no seasoning in the taco meat but ample toppings. - one star here. Other entree was a red pork which was also mediocre. Didn't bother with pics. No incentive to go back. read more

I have known about this establishment for a while, and they just opened a location close to Liberty Hill, so we tried it for lunch, and are we glad we did. Chips, Salsa & Iced Tea hit the table before they took our order, and they kept coming. They had their full menu offered as well as a nice selection of Lunch Specials. I had the Chalupa Plate, mixed one Beef & one Chicken, I opted for the Jalapeños on both. They were equally good, and a great choice. My wife ordered the Combo Light Plate which is a Cheese Enchilada with Chili con Carne Gravy and a crispy Beef Taco (which is the Barometer of any good Mexican Restaurant in Texas, Cali wants a Burrito), Guacamole Salad and a Queso Shell. She really loved it all. The only noticeable difference between Lunch and Supper is the slightly larger portions and Beans & Rice. You can get the Lunch Menu anytime for $2.00 more and they serve BREAKFAST ALL DAY. My little Grandson ordered the Kid's Cheese Quesadilla with French Fries and a Queso Shell, which is a personal portion of cheese dip for his Fries. The Service provided by Gabriel or "Gabe" as the host introduced him, was spectacular and as good as any restaurant I can think of in the city. They are a locally owned multi-unit, little Austin area chain, the kind of business we all love to support, so why not treat your friends and family to a really great meal with Michelin Star Service. [Note: I am a traveling musician, and a good friend of mine from the DC area was in Austin working. He took his wife to Casa Garcia's in Dripping Springs, and he said it was the best Mexican or Tex-Mex he had ever eaten, and this man has been all over the world. Let that marinate a while.] Give 'em a shot, I highly recommend it! read more

49 minutes from time we sat down until food arrived. 18 minutes before waiter stopped by for a simple drink and appetizer order. We've been to many Casa Garcia locations many times over the past 15 years and this is by far the worst service location. It sucks that we now live north and this is the closest one within reason. Somewhere new is on our horizon until we can move back south. read more
