    California enchiladas (to go)
    Katie R.

    I was desperately craving enchiladas and didn't want to battle commuter traffic, so I opted for Casa Lupe since it was nearby. I came here once, probably 15 years ago, so thought it was about time to give them another try. I didn't love it when I had it in the past, but they have a pretty big following so I thought it might've just been the item I got. I called ahead and placed my order to go, arrived about 10 minutes later and had to wait about two minutes for my food. The service was extremely warm and friendly from everyone I interacted with. This made me super optimistic and hopeful that I would love the food. Sadly, that was not the case. On a positive note, the portion of the enchilada meal was quite large, and they did include chips and salsa with my to go order. On a not so positive note, the food was kind of cold. I started eating it within 7-8 minutes of being handed the meal, so I was expecting it to be piping hot, but that was just not the case. Didn't like the flavor of the salsa, and the chicken in one of the enchiladas was pretty dry. Luckily the second enchilada I ate was better, that chicken was nice and tender, but very inconsistent between the two. With so much great Mexican food in the area, I don't think I will be coming back here, and if I do, it'll probably be in another 15+ years.

    Chicken & Steak Fajitas
    Rudy D.

    Came here for a club dinner. Place was packed. Service was meh. When we decided to split fajitas and while it came out fast, we had to ask for plates, tortillas, etc. Food was good, but never once asked about refills.

    Asada soft tacos with rice and beans

    5 stars for their chicken mole, but their tacos are below average. So, just go for the mole. Drink prices are on the high side and I don't remember seeing the prices on the menu. The special homemade sangria is bomb. I think it's $12 a glass. Worth it!! Website prices are not updated. I will continue to go for that sangria and mole! Both of them get five stars, but I give four stars overall because some of the other food items weren't as good and the beans were kind of thick and not as hot as I prefer. It's a very busy restaurant with a small bar.

    Steak fajitas
    Michele G.

    Hey there Party People Been looking for a good old fashion traditional Mexican place and I have finally found it. It's a great local joint that has a nice touch of traditional decor. I am a bit of a Spanish rice snob but I have to say this place gets a 9 out of 10 from me and that's high praise. I had the steak fajitas and the meat was so tender you could cut it with a fork. The marinade was very slightly sweet with a tang of vinegar that was really great. My Hubby did a combo plate consisting of a Chicken Taco, chicken Tostada and a carnitas Burrito. He really loved the carnitas the verde sauce was on point. His only negative was that the Chicken was slightly under seasoned. The portions were large and the chips and Salsa was FREE. I know...I was shocked too. I'll be coming to this place often Be kind to one another

    Chicken enchiladas suizas
    Carla I.

    Came on a tuesday night for dinner, the place doesn't have a lot of parking and the spots were all taken. The neighborhood nearby is resident parking only, so you need to find a spot on the street. The place was packed, and I feel like they were really understaffed, service was very slow, but they were all friendly and doing their best. We got chips and (very spicy) salsa as soon as we sat down. I had the chicken enchiladas suizas which was pretty bland. The plate itself was super hot, I touched it to adjust it and I nearly burnt myself. You should not serve a plate this hot to a customer, regardless of saying 'careful it is hot', I've never had anything like this ever. Doubt I'll be back.

    #20 tacos with Mexican steak and sub refried beans
    Taylor A.

    Stopped by on a rainy Tuesday night and the food was delicious! It wasn't too crowded and there were couples, families, and folks of all ages present. The decor above the tables, bar seating, and booths provides a cozy, authentic, and clean atmosphere. The service is attentive and kind, the salsas are delicious (one spicy, one smokey), and the portions are hefty. It's a family run establishment and folks make you feel like you're a regular even when you're not! I had #20: tacos with Mexican steak and swapped the pinto beans for refried beans. The guac portion was god-tier and the texture of the tortillas was ideal. The food was piping hot and the rice was some of the best Mexican rice I've had in the area. While they have a full bar and plenty of options for lunch and dinner -- as other reviewers have shared, the prices are quite steep -- buy I'd still say it's 4+ stars.

    Chicken mole and the service are fantastic. Nice cold beer, too. Great spot. Great for families.

Plenty of parking available since the restaurant is in a strip mall. It wasn't too busy when we got there, but then it started picking up.

I had the carne asada burrito, it was good but nothing over the top that made it stand out. My friend had enchiladas with mole. We were most excited about dessert and decided to share the churros and Tres leches. It was a nice touch that the churros and Tres leches did not come plain, a little pizzazz since they were both served with berries, whipped cream, and a cajeta style sauce. Both of the desserts were so good and a perfect touch of sweetness.

My wife liked that they cut away all of the fat. I prefer a little fat. I know that it's probably better that they cut out the fat. Nobody wants to pay for fatty meat. They came with thick tortillas. The tostadas were fresh and not overly spicy. They have a serve your self salsa bar. So if you want more spic it's available. I definitely want to come back for the soups. Even though it was over 90 degrees. People all around me were ordering the soups. I felt like I should have gotten a bowl to do.

I was still hungry after my meal and wondered if I could get more chips. I thought they would say no or charge extra, since they don't give a chip bowl to the table, only chips on your plate.
