    We were just a little short of our destination but we're too hungry to make it so we used Yelp to locate someplace for lunch and Casa Mexicana got our attention! We hadn't had Mexican for quite a while so we were ready for this one. Their menu is pretty extensive so it might help to narrow your choices and save some time making selections! We placed our drink orders and continued to look through the menu. My wife choose a Grilled Shrimp dish that came with Rice and Grilled Vegetables and I found a more typical Mexican Combo dish that had an Enchilada and a Tamale that came with Rice and Beans. It wasn't too busy at just after normal lunch time so our order came out rather quickly. The Chips and Salsa was very good and controlled our hunger while we waited. Then the real food arrived! The Grilled Shrimp and Vegetables were very good but we both thought the Rice was saltier than we like. The Enchilada was good and along with the Tamale were pretty standard fare for Mexican restaurants. When we were done, we were both full and ready to complete our drive.

    Stayed here overnight for work and was looking for something decent, while keeping my expectations VERY low.. pleasantly surprised to find this place. Extensive menu with more than affordable prices. Ordered the Carne Asada and enjoyed it... good flavor, even though it was chewy, beans and veggies were fresh and good and served with hot tortillas as they should be! Chips and salsa were OK, but happy there was at least Tapatio at the table instead of Wisconsin's favorite hot sauce, Tabasco. Choices of margarita were regular and golden. Being a Cadillac guy, I ordered the golden - again, expecting very little - and while they were small and served in a funky cup, they were very good but maybe a little overpriced at $9 ea.. Overall.. I am happy, not hungry, and would come here again for sure...

    I begged the Rice Lake family to open this one for 3 years. When they did it was the best. The food and service was so nice. We were welcomed like family and the food was very good. I'm from Southern California and I know good Mexican food. New owners took over and it flourished for a while. It's a small town and good service and friendliness go a long way. The manager has been pretty unfriendly for the last two years. If you're female, pretty, thin, and young, you get optically groped by most of the male staff until you leave. If you're larger, and female, your food is literally tossed on your table edge, as if you have a condition that is catching. The food is still good, service is hit or miss, doesn't matter if you're a good tipper. My favorites are the Tinga, California burrito, and carnitas. The chili relleno is made with a bell pepper and not a poblano, so ask for the poblano one and they'll fix it right. If you want El Pastor, go to the one in Rice Lake.

    This place is great. Last night I had three softshell tacos and a margarita. Everything was great. Today I had a single soft shelled taco and a chimichanga. I also had cheese sauce with my chips. The chips were warm and fresh I didn't care much for the salsa however. The service was fast and pleasant.

    Stuffed full!

    Food: This is probably the best Mexican around. I ordered…read morethe chimichanga and it exceeded all my expectations. I would highly recommend, especially because it comes with rice and beans. The beef inside tasted very authentic, not to mention delicious. my Sister also got the burrito and enjoyed it a lot. It was very big. The complementary chips and salsa are also a highlight because it's the only salsa I actually like. They also have a small complementary topping and dip bar where you try all kinds of different salsas and other dips and also grab lettuce and limes for you entrée. Over all: food is 9/10 Service: As soon as we walked in a waitress came up to us and seated us. We did not have to wait. She asked us what we wanted to drink. We both got water, but it had lemons in it so it felt fancy. We got our drinks and we're able to order fairly quickly. After we ordered our meal also came very quickly. Our server was very nice and smiley and we got checked on a few times. (Once when we went here our server had this really cool mustache and it honestly just made the whole experience better.) over all: service 9/10 Ambience: The environment is very nice, like if you dress up fancy, you wouldn't feel out of place but you also feel it wouldn't feel out of place if you dressed casual. It doesn't feel cramped but it also isn't overly big. They have lights on the ceiling that moved to the beat of the music that's quietly plain, which is very neat. The fake plants on top of the lights dangling down at a very neat effect. Makes me feel like I'm in Mexico! Over all: 9/10 Over all: Would highly recommend La Authentica (especially the chimichangas) whether your dining alone on a date or as a family

We started out by ordering the queso, guacamole and calamari for appetizers. All 3 were very good! I order a skinny margarita to start with and it was good but came in a small glass. I wish it came in a tall glass just like the regular margarita did. The regular margarita was very good as well. You have the option of salt or tajin on the rim. I special ordered the sprimp fajitas as they didn't just have shrimp as an option. Thankfully they were still able to accommodate my request because the fajitas were delicious!! You get rice and beans on the side & an option of guac or sour cream as a topping. You also get a choice of flour or corn tortillas. You definitely get your bang for your buck with this entree. The chef use to be the same chef as Manny's in Eau Claire so all the food was delicious. They have to many fresh seafood options which I loved. Overall I'd definitely come back!!
