I used to love coming here! Until one day, I bit into my quesadilla and found something they looked like a chicken's claw/toe nail. I spit it out so fast and nearly threw up. I showed my mom & she even said it looked like a chicken's claw/toe nail too. It is such a cute place that is so close to my house and I really loved coming but I have YET to return and I do not think that I ever will. I just can't get that image out of my head. read more

This has become our new go-to restaurant. The service is great, the food incredible and the drinks are strong! We go on a regular basis and the food is always home made and fresh. We've discovered that the spiciness can vary from day to day depending on who's in the kitchen. LOVE this place and take all of our friends here. read more

Awesome food and surprisingly cheap! Awesome chips and salsa every time we go too. Drinks are good and you can wait at the tiny bar or outside on a nice night when it's crowded. Consistently good again and again. Nothing seems frozen. All seems homemade! Friendly service and usually quick. read more

Food portions are always plentiful and prices are excellent. The restaurant is very clean and wait staff are polite and prompt read more

Casa Herrera - Mmm, churros - Mexican Near Me - Thorndale, Pennsylvania

See all

Just ordered takeout while waiting at the bar. Excellent service, from the moment I walked in, to Erik at the bar. The owner German Herrera actually walked behind the bar and also said hello and made me feel welcomed while my order was being made. Now the food. We ordered Tejano Nachos, Parrillada, and Chimichanga. WOWWW!!! I feel awful that we didn't take any pictures. We destroyed these plates at home. Food was amazing!!! We've ordered these dishes in the past, and it's a great feeling to order something a 2nd or 3rd and it tastes just as great as the first time! Erik at the bar delivers great customer service!!!! Awesome experience! read more

We visited last night for the first time. We all had a great meal, no complaints. We thought the portions were big and the prices were reasonable. My wife and I both had chimichanga dinners and our kids had quesadillas. I had a Corona Light draft which came out and it was a big 20 oz mug. We will definitely be back. read more

My wife and I love this place. The food is really good. We've tried one other Mexican place in the area since we moved here and it was night and day. So far we really like their homemade salsa, enchiladas, and chimichangas. It always seems a bit empty and I don't know why because we love it. So much so that I felt compelled to write a review. read more

You can't go wrong here. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. Every meal me and my family of five have had has been fresh and wonderful. The Chicken tortilla soup is amazing, I like it hot, it's a great meal, it's my favorite!! read more

The service is very below par.. I've been waiting for my chorizo tacos for 20 minutes while my friend has been eating theirs.. the service is very slow and they seem to not really know what they are doing.. I've been sitting here waiting for my server and she is no where to be found.. I am very upset and they don't really care how to treat a customer.. very sad.. I come here every weekend and it's the same deal.. I don't think I will be back.. would never recommend this place to family and friends.. the food is ok nothing special you can get these tacos anywhere even a gas station.. they need to work on communication skills and customer service skills along with manners! read more

Food was delicious and the margaritas are very large and tasty. Next time I will order the appetizer and wait to order the entree as everything came out together. Only reason I am giving 3 stars is it is extremely loud and our waitress was hard to get a hold of... read more

I had to update my review with a star downgrade. Went there tonight and the place is half full. Plenty of open tables. They said 10-15 minutes. When I asked why cause they had open tables they the kitchen's backed up. Keep in mind they have a liquor license so even if kitchen is backed up, they can seat and serve you drinks. What an idiotic way of doing business. read more

Came back yesterday and had a great chimichanga with all the to-go-withs I was hoping for (beans, rice, green salsa, salad, guac). I am not sure if they ever got better high chairs cause my son is now sitting in a regular seat, but our meals this time around we're definitely better. I liked that they served the sauces in little plastic cups, and they gave me lids for them when it was time to box up the leftovers. So convenient. Look forward to going back! read more

I've been here a few times (take out only) and have enjoyed every meal thus far. Yesterday I picked up to go order for my coworkers and I and ate the food. Everything tasted ok (cept rice which tasted off but I ate it anyway.) Meals ranged from taco salad, to texas nachos, enchiladas, tamale, etc.) Everything was fine until I got home that night. For the last 12 hrs I have been sick (losing almost 3.5lb as I weighed myself at work.) Thought maybe it was just my body being mean to me, but got to work today to find out everyone had gotten terribly sick. Believe food poisoning is the case, which is unfortunate, as we have all enjoyed meals from here before but will now be avoiding ordering from here again. read more

went on a Weds nite around 6 pm - very nice décor, waitress came right away and was very pleasant. Got chips and salsa - plentiful, esp for being complimentary. Purchased the optional guacamole, was very good. I ordered the chicken enchiladas which came with rice & beans, very very good - large serving, even took some home. My husband got a burrito, also very good & plentiful. Food came very fast & waitress was great. Overall great food & great service. my only small suggestion is that food should be served a bit hotter :) Already referred to other people & we will def go back! read more

Great food! I had the steak burrito with the sauce on the side which was excellent!! My wife had the chicken tacos which were awesome!! Great atmosphere! great food! friendly service! would definitely go there again!! read more

Very good tostadas and beans. My son wanted a salad, they made a kid version of one of the daily specials. Excellent service!

Went to this new restaurant in November and was very pleased with the service, food and atmosphere. Our group had a great time and a delicious meal. We'll definitely go back. read more

I would give it no stars if I could. We went at noon for lunch. I should've known when the restaurant was empty. It took a while to get a waiter to come over and then later in the meal she sat across from us on the phone while I loudly sipped on my empty drink. The food came out almost instantly. It was clear it was microwaved. There were incredibly hot spots and stone cold spots. The rice was reheated and the peas were mealy and overcooked. The food was so bad. I have had better store-bought burritos reheated in my own microwave. I couldn't get the waitress to come back to refill a drink or to give us a check. The food was very expensive and so gross. I rarely write a review but had to warn people. It is a real shame because I really wanted to like it and we could use a restaurant in the area. read more

Second visit was great. Walked in hungry, walked out waddling with the meat sweats and a take home box! Wanted something a bit spicy, so I asked the waiter if they had any hot sauce and he brought out a good size bowl of it for our table. The mole was very good as well as the enchiladas verde. I had the Texas Cubano which was massive. The ladies had a pitcher of sangria which the both raved about. This place will definitely be a staple in the rotation. read more

See my below review. I would never go back to this restaurant. The food and service was aweful. They don't even have hot sauce that's hot

Last time I went the tacos of chorizo were bad the meat was expire, me being Mexican I spot it right away but for some not knowing the smell of it would be seriously sick if they eat it.I get 2 stars cause not all the food is bad this is the list I try so far and they were good:tacos de carnitas,enchiladas verdes,tamales verdes,tacos de lengua.Bad choices:tacos de chorizo,cocktel de camaron(the shrimp tasted awfull,like frozen burn),the chips were old. read more

First time here, & the food is absolutely amazing!! The friendly atmosphere, quick service & easy to read menu makes this place easily one of my favorites. Although I live an hour away I certainly will be coming back to explore more items on the menu. Casa Herrera Mexican Restaurant & Cantina is authentic & sure to get you full! 5 stars from me!! read more

Great place for large and reasonably priced entrees, including complementary chips and salsa. Also, they have a full bar that is stocked with all three of my favorite tequilas: Don Julio Anejo, Blanco, and Reposado. (They have several others, but those are my favorites). They also carry a great selection of Mexican beers. There is a live mariachi band on Saturday nights. Recently tried the ribs with green chili sauce and they were delicious! read more

My fiancé and I tried this place on Saturday 11/29. We were so excited to try this new place, especially since I used to work at a Mexican restaurant; I was eager to compare the food at the two places. Let me start by saying that we were seated promptly. The décor is cute, but you can definitely tell that this building was formerly a Pizza Hut. A lot of the details have been left unfinished. Our server was sweet and friendly, but didn't know much about the menu, she spilled my drink all over the table when she set it down and didn't offer to bring a cloth over to clean it - she just handed me a bunch of napkins after I asked her for them. We set our straw papers, dirty/wet napkins, etc at the side of the table and she neglected to remove them. As a former server, this irks me to no end and is a big no no! (oh and have to mention that when the manager stopped by to see how things were, he too neglected to remove the trash.) The food - we received a basket of chips and some salsa right after we were seated. The chips were stale and definitely store bought and I thought that the salsa was horrible. It wasn't "typical" salsa. We both ordered the shrimp burritos - the only part that I liked was the shrimp. The tortilla was stale (store bought), the guacamole was not fresh and the lettuce/tomatoes/onions were limp and soggy. The best part of my meal was my margarita - it was delicious. I might be a bit biased since I have experience in an authentic Mexican restaurant where the chips, tortillas, guacamole and salsa were all fresh made on site and where the produce was bought fresh.. but we will not be returning to this place. read more

Love our local Mexican restaurant, everything about it! Awesome food, great service, Mariachi e/o Thursday, our favorite place to rejuvenate. And did I mention? The margaritas are bangin! read more

Loved it! Great food, atmosphere and service! Margaritas were tasty as well. We will be back!

The food here is very authentic and top notch as are the beers and the margaritas they serve. The guacamole is fresh and made daily and is really an excellent choice to go with their chips and salsa. I recommend the family size fajitas as this is a great choice always and enough to share. read more

Great authentic food at very reasonable prices. I highly recommend the steak chimichanga . The fried ice cream is incredible also .

Wonderful food and atmosphere. Ask the the really spicy salsa it you like your food extra spicy

Waitress forgot to put our order in after waiting an hour and constantly being reassured that our food was coming right out. My son's chicken fingers were raw! Left hungry and will never go back! read more

HORRIBLE. We went on Wednesday night, and the place was packed. The music was entirely too loud, the menu is limited (no a la cart) and the food was horrible. I ordered cheese enchiladas. I got chicken. I sent them back and they came back old COLD. The cheese on the inside looked like it was a polly-o string cheese stick. The table next to us got their apps and entrees at the same time, both were wrong. Waiting to pay took longer than anything else. It's a shame because the staff is so nice and the place is really nicely decorated. But the food....terrible. Taco Bell is several steps up. read more

We visited Casa Herrara 2/24/15 and found it to be great! We had Milanesa De Polio, Sopes De LaCasa, Taquitos, Enchillatas Verdi and all were great. Service was just right in time, place is delightfully decorated, very clean. They even have Corona on tap! Staff were friendly. And the price was right! Their menu is not like any Mexican restaurant I have been to and seems very authentic. It's a large menu. The do have take out, but no delivery. Nice place, we'll go again for sure. read more

Really good chicken burrito. They have a spicy red sauce that's not on the menu. It's great on the burrito! Clean place and well decorated. Good service. read more

I HAD AN EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE, THE FOOD WAS GREAT,I HAD SHREDDED PORK FAJITAS, CAME WITH ALL YOU WOULD EXPECT , FLAVOR WAS GREAT!!! as was the service , Chris the bartender was friendly and engaging, the dining room is a little bright and festive, but all NEW and exceptionally clean, prices were very good. A great place for family meals! read more

This place has a colorful Mexican themed decor with what appears to be hand painted colorful scenes on all the tables and chairs. Nice touch. The food was very well prepared with an extensive and interesting menu. Prices were very reasonable for what you get and the portions generous. It gets crowded on weekends which is a good sign. I had poblano peppers stuffed with ground beef, potatoes and rice and a red sauce. It came with retried beans, Mexican rice and guacamole. Corn tortillas complimented the dish. My Other Half had shredded beefsteak in a spicy but creamy sauce. The donut like Churros were great. They have a full liquor license and good choice of beers. read more

Went here recently and was very disappointed. The food was just ok. My wife's wine glass was crusted with filth. When we brought it to our waitress's attention she took it back and returned with it saying that it was just " the way they come out of the dishwasher" Our family will not be back read more

Love, love, love their food! I would go everyday (just about did) if I could. Service is slow at times, but their cheerful attitudes makes up for it :) read more

First time diners. We had a pitcher of sangria! (Yummy but pricey) The food was excellent and service was decent. Prices were reasonable on food. We'll be back again soon. read more

I went here for my birthday. Loved the margarita's! The food was good and loved that they gave churros as my birthday dessert. They are filled and are soo good! Loved the decor! We had excellent service. Very good experience. read more

Been here several times for lunch. Great salsa, chips are ok. There like the store bought colored kind. Love the asada tacos.
