Casa Mexicana is an absolute blast! The second you walk in, the place has this fun, upbeat energy that makes you feel like you came to have a good time -- not just grab something to eat. The food is fantastic and the portions are HUGE. You definitely aren't leaving this place hungry. Everything came out looking great, tasted even better, and you absolutely get your money's worth. And then there are the drinks and desserts -- holy hell! They have all kinds of unusual, over-the-top drinks and desserts that you don't see at every Mexican restaurant. They're creative, colorful, different, and freaking amazing. Half the fun is seeing what comes out next because some of this stuff is almost too cool to eat or drink... almost! But the waiters really put this place over the top. They're hilarious, friendly, and actually have personalities. They joke around with you, keep the energy going, and make the whole meal an experience. Great food, monster portions, awesome atmosphere, crazy-good drinks and desserts, and a staff that knows how to have fun while still taking care of you. Casa Mexicana is the kind of place you leave saying, "Hell yeah, we're coming back." read more

This place will fill that Mexican food craving we all get. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside is a very pleasant experience for a Mexican restaurant. Staff was very helpful and attentive to your needs and food was amazing. I got the lunch fajitas, but could feed two people. read more

Casa has been in Rice Lake for 23 years now, and their long-time servers treat guests like family. You get smiles, conversation, attentive service and great food. They are happy to accommodate you if you want something spicier, or something added/omitted from a menu item. read more

We were in Rice Lake for shopping and needed to stop for lunch. People at the store suggested this Mexican restaurant so we stopped here, took us a trip around the block to figure out the parking in the back. We were seated quickly but it took awhile for our food to arrive after ordering, so we ended up eating way too many chips and salsa. Our fajitas were huge and excellent, and service was above average. The place is nicely decorated and the tables and decor were impressively neat and original. We'll put Casa Mexicana on our list of restaurants to remember to stop again if we're in the area. After leaving I realized that it was Valentine's Day and that affected how busy they were. read more

This place was packed and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. We got a table fast and drinks arrived very fast. Our food order was taken shortly after our drinks arrived and the food came out fast for our children and both my wife and I had to wait a bit and each of ours came out separately. My wife's was cold and my nachos didn't have much flavor. Our children loved their burritos and beans and rice. We might try it again in the future. read more

Great food! Great service! You can't beat how awesome the food is! Always leave with a happy tummy.

We had a bad experience here tonight. We are traveling from Colorado to visit family and came here for a birthday in the family. From the moment we sat down tonight everything was off. The table wasn't cleaned off properly. There was food that wasn't even attempted to be washed off the table or chairs from the previous guests. The menu's were grimy and clearly hadn't been wiped down in awhile. The food took forever, nearly an hour to arrive at our table and when it did the order wasn't correct for 1 person in our party. So we ate without that family member and had to wait longer for his food to get re-made. Then they forgot the child's birthday we were celebrating and he was very sad. Never mind our drinks were never refilled. When we complained there was no reimbursement of any kind just a weak apology. We won't be back. read more

Standard interior for a Mexican restaurant. Margaritas were delicious. When I went to order Camarones a la Diabla the waitress sounded condescending when she asked if I "could handle it, it's really hot." It was delicious. Would come back again! read more

We were fishing all day and didn't catch enough fish for a full meal, just a snack! So we decided to go out for dinner and most were interested in Mexican. When they mentioned Casa Mexicana I initially thought they were talking about Casa Mexicana in Ladysmith, WI, where we had eaten the day before on our way to Chetek that we both thought had overly salty rice. But we quickly learned that this was a different location in the same family so we went with the group and I'm glad we did! When we arrived the parking lot was almost completely full bu we managed to find a spot as someone was just leaving! Inside was also completely packed with many waiting to be seated. My wife went to the check in counter to see how much of a wait we could expect for our party of six! She came back and we were told too follow her and the hostess for immediate seating; not sure what happened or how but we weren't complaining! But once we were seated and our drinks and Chips & Salsa delivered to our table we ordered and then waited for over an hour and a reminder before our food showed up. My wife ordered Grilled Vegetarian Fajitas and I ordered the Casa Combo with added Guacamole. Then the wait began! When the food arrived, all the frustrations disappeared and all six of us enjoyed what we ordered! My Casa Combo included 2 Hard Tacos, 2 Tamales in corn husks, and 2 Mini Chimichangas plus my added Guacamole that came with Rice and Beans, Cilantro, Sour Cream, and the Guacamole. The Rice was not too salty like the Casa Mexicana in Ladysmith. When we were finishing up the manager stopped by to apologize for the delay saying they had more customers due to it being Father's Day, Sunday, and he was short staffed because some didn't show up! But we did enjoy the food. read more

The food is good. It does cater to Americans but you can order things more authentically if you specify (corn tortillas, lime, etc). They truly shine in their service - incredibly courteous and friendly! read more

Excellent food and service, one of the best Mexican restaurants we have found in the area! Will definitely be going again.

A surprising gem in small town Wisconsin. As good as any mainstream Mexican restaurant in the twin cities ..

The food is pretty good. But the prices are way too expensive. It should not cost 20 dollars for a main dish, rice, and beans. The quality is not for that price. Service is not the best, but not the worst. The environment is very chaotic when I eat there and that is why I eat it at home. read more

Everything was great from food, to service, to cleanliness. The staff is very attentive and courteous. They treat you like a friend. I ordered the azteca burrito. Oh my gosh it was so delicious! Definitely our favorite place to go to eat in the area. I hope you all will give them a try. You won't be disappointed. read more

Casa Mexicana... Mexican House... all right! We ordered takeout and everything was pretty good. Online ordering worked very well and our food was ready around the time that they estimated. I love that their menu has Burrito Land and Taco Land sections on it. I do wish that Burrito Land and Taco Land were actual nations that I could visit or emigrate to in an escapist mood. Veggie fajitas were pretty good, as were the bean chimichangas. "Nachos beans" were... well, beany. If there were a downside, everything vegetarian had beans and rice (and lots of it) and it felt like too much beans and rice for one meal. Not that any of it was bad, but there just wasn't enough variety or creativity on the veggie side of the spectrum. The guacamole is good. You'll want the large one! Chips were only so so. I'd like to dine in sometime, after this viral 2020 goes into the history dumpster. read more

I don't really like going out for Mexican food because I'm always mostly disappointed, but first time I believe ever, I loved the food here. Everything was excellent, great flavor, large portions, attentive server, colorful interesting decor. I was so stuffed, I was in pain for the next hour, but simply the BEST! I live five hours away, but I kind of actually thought about going back. Everyone in my party agreed, it was excellent! read more

If you want authentic and fresh Mexican food--this is the spot! Worth the drive and service was amazing! Everything we ordered was seasoned so well! We are well traveled to Mexico and this place transported me back to some of my fav spots! If your looking for amazing authentic cuisine and a fun spot --this is it! Price was so reasonable as well and plates are big enough to share! We will make this a regular spot! read more

Not the best, not the worst. All around just an average meal at Casa Mexicana in Rice Lake. Location on Main Street with a parking lot in the rear. Casa Mexicana is highly recommended by locals as being very good food. My boyfriend and I had yet to try their food and thought it was high time we did. Service was great throughout our visit. Upon arrival we were immediately greeted and seated, no wait here. From there we had 3 servers ask for our drink order. Then continued to come by until we placed our food order. I asked a few questions about the vast variety of items on the menu since this was my first time. Our primary server answered them and provided some recommendations. Overall very attentive and pleasant. Food was pretty average. The free chips and salsa were good. Salsa comes in a small plastic craft and you pour as much or as little as you want. Generous chip refills. We also ordered a small guacamole to accompany our chips. I honestly didn't love it. Which is sad because I don't meet many I don't love. The guacamole had a lighter green color and smoother texture which made me think they might add sour cream to it. I'm not certain but not a fan. For our entrees, my boyfriend ordered Enchiladas Sumpremas and I got the Pollo Mexicano. Enchiladas Sumpremas consists of 4 corn tortillas with one chicken, one ground beef, one cheese and one bean. They are topped with red sauce, cheese, lettuce and sour cream. My boyfriend was not a fan. He said the whole meal lacked flavor and did not finish his meal. I tried a bite and have to agree. My Pollo Mexicano was ok. It was chicken breast with seasoning, onions and jalapeno peppers. It came with 3 flour tortillas and rice and beans. It had flavor but was nothing special. I wouldn't order it again just because there are so many other things to choose from and it certainly didn't stand out. Prices are rather reasonable for the portions you are served. Based on price and the variety offered on the menu I can see why this place is appealing. It's also the only Mexican restaurant in town unless you count Taco John's. I personally will not be rushing back anytime soon but if you're in Rice Lake and are crazing Mexican it's an ok option. read more

So good. I always am up for going to Casa. It's the best. People are great! Food is always good! So many options to choose from.

You can't go wrong with their food ! The wait staff is great too. I love Mexican food and this is one of the good ones

Showed up to place a large order to go. Staff was super friendly and the food was spot on. Can't wait to actually dine in!

Can't say enough good things about this place. The staff is always friendly $ attentive. Food is delicious whether lunch or dinner. Prices are reasonable so it's a great place to bring the family. Casa Mexicana is a hidden gem in Northwest Wisconsin. Having eaten Mexican food across the Southwest US, this place ranks with the best of them read more

Great food great service love ittttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really wanted to like this place. Probably would have been a higher rating if we hadn't gone on a busy night. Kitchen couldn't keep up. My son's enchiladas came and he really liked it. The 1st part of my fajitas (rice, beans, lettuce) came shortly after my son's meal. Then the "non" sizzling part of the meal came out 5 min later, barely warm and dry, obviously sat for awhile before getting to me. Never did get any tortillas. I took 2 bites and walked out. I will definitely try again on a slower night. I know places are struggling with staff in today's world. I would have rather waited for a fresh order than to get what I received. read more

This place is nothing short of AMAZING! Great food, service, decor and drinks. The portions of food is very large and talk about good... it's great! The staff works so hard. They are so accommodating! I'm don't usually stop for Mexican food, that because others restaurants don't make it like these guys. You certainly get your money's worth here and prices are very reasonable. A great experience! read more

I wish I could give higher rating, I was disappointed. Multiple children were absolutely screaming from the moment we walked in, I don't know if it was kids eat free night. We were seated exactly next to the children when there were clearly several other spots available. Our food came out fast, though it is what actually earned them 3/5 stars. It was hot and made as described on the menu but my shrimp were bland, no seasoning and there was an unnecessary amount of white cheese whiz on top. The same happened with my mothers beef tacos, they tasted like absolute ground beef in shells. No cumin, nothing. If I traveled through again I might try them, but I'd order something different. read more

First out to start I love Casa Mexicana they have such great food and amazing service. But not this one my aunt and I went there for a birthday lunch. And we had to wait 15 minutes to get our menus. Once we ordered it took about 50 minutes to get our food. Also another one of the things that we saw. Was a family member having their birthday there. It seems like it was a fun time for them, but when they got a free dessert one of the workers put whipped cream on everyone's face. If I got whippedcream on my face I would probably be in hives. I was just a little confused on why they did that. And over all the food was not good and we will never go back. But what I do know is we all have bad days and it could have been one of theirs. read more

Food is as good as any I have had in Texas, New Mexico, or Arizona. They are particularly good at stews.

Normally this place is amazing with quick service and great food. We went tonight and it was horrible the whole place was a shit show. Our food came out after a really long time and by that time we had to leave for a event. The workers wouldn't stop and listen to us. They seemed understaffed and over stressed we've been in there before durn the dinner rush and had zero problems.And after all of that it was really expensive. read more

"Barriga llena, corazón contenta!" I graciously told one of the employees after paying for a delectably filling meal. While he may have been overly complementary of my Spanish my words which translate to "full belly, happy heart!" were unembellished. The "Steak Degollado a la Parilla" was both a mouthful to order and eat but neither tested me beyond my linguistic or dietary limits! It came quickly after ordering (obviously bridged by free chips and salsa) on a hot skillet smothered in shrooms, cheese, and onions with a side of rice, beans and, tortillas. It was a hardy, soul-filled meal and all my coworkers felt the same. However, the navy retiree of our team expected his street tacos to have double tortilla... among the vibrant mosaic Mexican art his disappointment was fleeting. read more

Soooo good, fast and inexpensive. We arrived just before the dinner crowd, staff was very attentive, food was delicious, I had the carnitas generous portion with tortillas and rice & frijoles, looking forward to my return meal! read more

2 wayward travelers passing though near closing time were warmly welcomed with smiles and the simple yet intoxicating aroma of beef. We were quickly seated, and chips of the perfect temperature and a salsa to match were promptly delivered. Waters were ordered, as to not alter our palettes, as we were excited to try this highly reviewed restaurant. Almost instantaneously, as we had decided, the waiter appeared ready to take our order. Minutes later, 5 chicken tacos and a warm pile of combo meal #25 were delivered. And the feast began. The first bite? In a word - good. This set the tone for the evening. The food was everything we had hoped. It was good. With full stomachs and heavy hearts, we pushed our empty plates away from us and sighed. For we are just passing through. There are many miles to go before we sleep, and it unlikely we will return to this place in the near future. But given the chance, we will. read more
