I went mid day, after lunch time, so it was pretty quiet. I was seated immediately. The chips and salsa are good. The quesabirria tacos were outstanding with the little bowl Of consume' to dip. Attentive service. Bright decor. Ample free parking. Next to action city. read more

Great place to go for lunch or with family. The portions are large for the price point. Friendly and attentive staff.

Coming from southern California I never expected to find such a good Mexican restaurant, but Casa Margarita is fantastic! The prices aren't too high, the employees - while seeming very lackadaisical (sometimes even playing slot machines) are actually very friendly and very quick and attentive (I had refills before I realized I needed them, but one or two sips later I was already grateful). I only had an issue with an employee being very slow one time so far and he was, sadly as it shows in his case he didn't care, was sitting a few feet away at the bar watching the television. And, of course, the food is delicious as well as served in very nice big portions. Glad to find this little place, not so much a 'hidden gem' but it feels like one with where it's located (which is kind of nice, keeps it from being insanely crowded all the time), wouldn't have known it was even there without the power of the internet! read more

The food selection on the menu was expansive ! I liked the various options available in the Appetizer area. I ordered the poblano pepper with egg. It was a scrambled egg, not a poached or fried egg. The chips and salsa were very fresh. The chips were served super hot with each refill. The service was spot on even though they were busy with large tables. The walls were colorful with painted Mexican decor. The ambiance was quiet even with lots of people. read more

The food was amazing! I had shrimp fajitas. Huge portions , huge! Great service. I love the way the restaurant is decorated too. Prices are very reasonable Give it a try read more

Tasty food in a fun setting, walking distance from Metropolis and Action City. Their Al pastor enchiladas were very tasty, with lots of crispy bits for a texture I loved. Salsa has little spice, but is very pleasant. Lots of colors and visual stimulation. Great for families read more

We are traveling from Minnesota to go back home to Wisconsin and wanted somewhere close off the interstate and after the yelp reviews we found this gem. We are here on Cinco de Mayo and we still only had about a 10 minute wait and this place is packed! The food, service, ambience is amazing! Will definitely recommend it! read more

big menu with tons of items, good fast service, reasonable prices this place is still less popular than it should be and often there's no waiting and plenty of room have tried something different every time i've been there and so far it has all been great ordering for delivery has also gone really well, nearly always perfect :) read more

Bugs and flies everywhere!!! Food was terrible and not worth the price. The service left a lot to be desired. One of the worse dining experiences of our lives. We will not be returning and see why the parking lot was mostly empty. read more

This place is right off of highway 94, just a minute or two off and is a great spot!! Delicious Mexican food, friendly and fast service and clean and colorful ambiance. Found it on yelp as we were passing through town and decided to give it a try and all 4 of us were pleased. I really liked the chicken fajitas, my husband loved his Chile Verde and the kids were pleased with the kids meal quesadilla and burrito. read more

Casa Margarita - Chicken fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

They never miss. Priced appropriately, good atmosphere, staff is great, food always on point

I don't normally review restaurants, but I read them once in a while. I am not real familiar the Mexican food scene in town and we almost didn't do take-out from here because of some of the negative reviews. I think the large menu allowed us to choose some really great food. I had Molcajete and my wife chori pollo. The chips and guacamole were great. Inside the restaurant is nice and bright and my food was on time and the staff very polite. I will be going back. read more

In sort of a weird building but the food is very good. Great value. We stop every time we go by Eau Claire

Excellent food, excellent portions, & great service :) 5 stars. Muy Bueno! Will be back read more

Casa Margarita - Shrimp Enchiladas - Mexican Near Me - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

Its a fun place with good but not great mexican food. Part of the "Casa" chain (Chippewa Falls, Rice Lake, Ladysmith and ?), Casa Margarita serves a very full menu (too much?) with a full bar. Food is well prepared, staff is fun and the place is clean. While not my favorite mexican, it is certainly better than average. If you need a quick meal while driving by on the interstate, this place will fit the bill. Good food served by a local family. It won't take long to be served, and you have saved yourself from another gut bomb. read more

Wisconsin cheese so fresh, you can hear the cow mooing in the restaurant. Their decor is fun and hand painted. Ask Chango, best staff ever, to push a booth together if you need a nap. Queso fundido with chorizo is the best flavor - don't be alarmed by the grease, that needs to be there! Beef chimichanga is extremely tender - not ground beef but brisket beef! We wasted it on our ten year old (they loved it but we would have loved it more.) The carnita tinga was saucy and perfectly seasoned. Flour tortillas are handmade. You'll never have an empty bowls of chips, they don't skimp on anything. I'd pass on the guac, but everything else we will dream about for days. Freaking love this place! read more

Great food but poor service. The server was nice enough. Once our food came we didn't see the server again. We sat for quite a while after we were done eating and watched him stay busy on his phone. The restaurant was mostly empty at the time so there was no reason to not be attentive to the customers. I'll try somewhere else next time I pass through read more

The Mexican Flair, Decor, service & menu options get a 5-star ratings from me! The food is good too. I look forward to going back and trying something new. My pineapple chicken was so huge it's going to make three meals for me. Definitely the perfect atmosphere for a large Gathering, friends, children or just two of you. read more

Casa Margarita - Pineapple Chicken & Taco salad... both were good! - Mexican Near Me - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

Very disappointed by todays order. Be it the restaurants mistake or the Eat Street driver, the wrong order arrived. When I called and attempted to have it fixed the male on the phone demanded I bring back the wrong order because the people who ordered it were waiting and I could then reorder our food. Who would take food that has been delivered and opened to another persons home? That seems unsanitary and a horrible way to do business. Thankfully when I contacted Eat Street we received the $51 dollars refunded and a coupon for out next order. We were told to dispose of the order if we didn't want to eat it as it's against their policy to redeliver food due to health concerns and sanitary policies. Anyone who demands someone go out of their way to fix their mistake should not be in the service industry. read more

Food was bland, little to no flavor. The burrito and enchilada were nothing special, the meat was dry with no spice and I honestly only looked forward to being finished. The service was quick, the prices were cheap, but I would recommend elsewhere if you want good Mexican food. read more

We found this place because of Yelp, driving from Minneapolis to Milwaukee. We wanted something close to the highway, quick, good plentiful but not a chain. Well - this is it. We were greeted immediately, shown to a table further in the restaurant where the music was loud. I asked for a quieter spot and was able to choose a booth close to the door. Chips and salsa came out right away with giant glasses of water. The salsa was delish- just enough heat and authentic (not chunky). I ordered the special: enchilada souiza (spelling?) - my hubs ordered the fajitas mixta. The food came quickly - hot fresh, fajitas sizzling of course. My food was sooo good. Green sauce with just the right amount of sour cream. It may have been a bit too salty, but I loved it. Hub's lime marg on the rocks was good, not too tart. Bottled lite beer was cheap, we had to take home half of each our meals, so we had Mexican for both lunch and dinner that day. If you hate styrofoam like I do just come equipped with your own to-go container. You will need it, especially if you eat as many chips as I did before the food came. Split something if you can't take it with you. This place looks great for big groups. We saw lots of families with kids, so they probably also serve kid food. Pizza place right next door looked busy too. read more

Pastor tacos with corn tortillas were excellent. Love that they offer corn or flour while ordering. The perfect margarita was just ok ... didn't have much flavor. Great server and great staff made for an great night/dinner! read more

Thoroughly pleased with Casa Margarita! We needed to stop for dinner while on a long road trip passing through the area. The steak/potatoes/random fried food joints aren't our style so we chose Mexican. Casa Margarita was legit! The gold margarita was tasty - not too sweet or syrupey, chips were warm and crispy, salsa was fantastic. We ordered the stuffed poblano entree and veggie fajitas and were delighted with both. Very attentive staff, you could tell all of them were working hard. read more

This is probably the fastest service I have ever received. I come here often and I am in and out in 25 minutes. That is how fast it is. The food is amazing and the people are very nice. read more

After my favorite Mexican restaurant in EC got a new owner and started making changes to the food (heartbreaking!), we began looking for a new favorite. We showed up at about 9:25 on Friday night. The restaurant looked empty. We were seated right away and placed drink orders. I love the decor. While I've seen many handpainted chairs and booths, these were original and quite interesting. I wanted to walk around and look at them all but didn't get a chance. The first thing I noticed is how large the menu is. It's very full and quite frankly a little intimidating. The margarita was delicious. Food was hot, fresh and tasty. My only complaint about the food is that I wish the steak fajitas had been seasoned a little more. They were pretty bland as far as seasoning, but there was a very generous portion of steak, onions, peppers and tomatoes. I did get a chance to try some of my boyfriend's chicken and it was flavorful, moist and delicious. Rice was moist and tasty (so often I find the Mexican rice is dry). Towards the middle of our meal (and closing time!) two large groups began coming in the door. One of the groups was waiting for other people to show up and we watched as a 10+ party showed up one couple at a time over 10-15 minutes. The waitstaff was awesome. Our original server still checked on us, but other members of the staff checked in as well. This sounds petty, but I genuinely appreciate that other staff attempted to make sure we had a positive experience - too many times I've been somewhere and had a large party come in and been forgotten about. I also thought it was really great the way no one hesitated to seat and serve the two large groups that walked in literally less than 10 minutes before closing time. I enjoyed it. We'll definitely be back. read more

Casa Margarita - a plate of mexican food on a table - Mexican Near Me - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

I've come here twice and it has officially become my go-to restaurant for Mexican cuisine! (For anyone who lives in Ladysmith / Rice Lake, this is the same family that owns Casa Mexicana, so you know it's good!!) Their chips and salsa are some of the best complimentary ones in the area (I've tried Manny's, Azul Tequila, Cancun, Taqueria la Poblanita, and the Mexican Supermarket Restaurant) and the salsa has a fantastic kick to it. The interior is decorated in bright beautiful colors and wonderful art decor. The staff is always very friendly, and I know some people complain about the staff being loud or boisterous, but I've always found it exciting/humorous when they start dancing or singing along to what's playing in the background. Never has it ruined my meal, and it's refreshing to see people actually enjoy their work and what they do. I recommend the burrito California, it's huge, filled with steak and chicken, beans, rice, pico de gallo, and smothered in cheese sauce. Seriously, it's AMAZING. For two people to eat, without ordering any fancy drinks, it was just under $30 with a tip which is fantastic for the generous portions they give. Casa Margarita has officially snagged me, I won't be going elsewhere for delicious Mexican food in Eau Claire! read more

Freaking amazing. If you don't stop here you are making the third biggest mistake of your life. Obviously the first two are not making your friend drive and forgetting your ID because the pitcher margaritas are so delicious your tongue will be dancing in your mouth. PS order the pineapple fajita it is so good you'll be licking your chops for hours. read more

This place was terrible !!! The guacamole was bland and flavorless. Such a let down. The nachos where soggy and also bland. The only thing that made it ok was that the kids had hmabergers and fried and for a Mexican place that the only thing they got right. Really the American food you cook better then the actual cuisine you claime to be! All the high stars have me confused on if these are employees trying to brown nose for a raise hahahahah will not be returning to this place ever again. So many better mexican restaurants including taco John's yes I said a fast food mexican place is better then this place ! read more

Probably the best Mexican food I have ever had! Waiter was hilarious and fun, made my time quite enjoyable. Beautiful building, just WOW

Can't go wrong with this busy Mexican restaurant. Quick attentive service and very tasty meal. Ice cold drinks. Great atmosphere colourful decor. read more

Really good! Huge menu with any combination of American mex food you can imagine. Salsa is ok.

Tried Casa Margarita for the first time & was not disappointed. We started off with blended strawberry margaritas that were delicious & only $1! For dinner we ordered the chimichanga supremas which was a mix of beef, shrimp & chicken chimichangas that were so good! Nice to have a mix of choices. I asked our waitress what she recommended because I wanted to try something new, I forget the name but it was chicken with pineapple chunks served inside a half pineapple with beans & Spanish rice. Also, fantastic. Mexican is definitely hit or miss around here but this place has my vote! read more

Out of the way and tailored more for the people at the Action City resort, Casa Margarita is an interesting blend of Tex-mex and proper Mexican cuisine. The staff are friendly and the restaurant is upbeat and colorful; if not a bit cliche or stereotypical. Food quality seems to range from day to day and chef to chef. Sometimes it's amazing, other times it's subpar. read more

His is the best Mexican food in the area. Food comes out fast and service is super! Steak is tasty regardless of the plate! Get a margarita and enjoy the environment. read more

My family and I absolutely love eating here. We eat here at least once a month. We usually do pick up. The staff are friendly and the service is amazingly fast. The food is flavorful and portions are plentiful. We really enjoy the fajita taco salad and the burritos. read more

Waiters screeching animal noises, waiters screaming your order as they slam your plate down on the table, extremely watered down margaritas (tasted like mix only), tiny portions, and serving food that was frozen in the middle with undercooked shrimp in the dish. Minor case of food poisoning was a gift that kept on giving. I would leave negative stars. read more

I loved it...The staff is extremely upbeat and uplifting ..Food has quality making it taste autentic...loving it

The food was OK. The decor is nice. The host/ waiter at our visit probably thought he was funny. He wouldn't split our bill, was very condescending when someone asked for water and overall rude, etc. We figured we would be able to just figure out the bill when we received it, but it just listed dollar amounts and not the item. He also said the kids burrito meal wasn't spicy, but came with taco sauce. We won't be returning. We prefer a restaurant with more considerate staff, relaxing atmosphere and clear charges. If you like to be given a hard time and annoyed for fun, this is a good place for you. read more

Carry out review. Excellent food. I had the Zarape which was awesome--great flavor. Huge portion. I love heat so added more fresh jalepenos at 70 cents. My wife liked the Chile Colorado too. I was only inside a few minutes but it looked nice, clean etc. It was good enough that I had to look back at some negative reviews and question them. I can't speak to full atmosphere inside or table service of course but to suggest the portions are small or that the food quality is akin to Taco Johns are simply false statements. I'm from out of town staying a local hotel and will definitely go back if we stay here again! read more
