We are locals and this is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants in the area! The food is delicious, the prices are great and the service is amazing. The owners are super friendly and have watched our children grow up. Definitely give them a try! You won't regret it! read more

Ok, my review is definitely biased. I am from Texas and have decades of experience with proper Tex-Mex. The struggle to find proper Tex-Mex was as frustrating when I lived in Colorado for several years. NC has mainly been one disappointment after another. First of all, we do not put movie theater style nacho cheese on everything. This is a cheap sub for real cheese I'm experiencing everywhere out here. I'm determined now to stick to the Tejano trailers in the area. We had the lunch time shrimp tacos and taco salad. Everything about the enchiladas was bland. I asked my wife to try them, "it taste like there's Alfredo sauce in these." That's the cheap queso!!! No self-respecting person is making their enchiladas at home that way. The taco salad? The whole think was cooked! There was a soggy lump of cooked spinach on the bottom. Just gross. This place is probably a dream for those that don't know any better. read more

Service is great , they go beyond to fix anything that the cook got wrong . Food is good. Family owned and ran. If there is something that is not on tge menu that you like ask them if they could fix it . I am especially talking about their egg dish that is extremely hot as in spice hot. I don't eat things with any spice in it but my husband and son do . They love that dish. Some things are not available because they so many people order them in a day, such as the orchetta (possibly spelled wrong ) drink, that my husband likes very much,its a non-alcohol drink. To my knowledge, they serve only Pepsi soda pop, not Coke A Cola soda pop. read more

Went here because the reviews were great. Staff was very friendly but sadly this was some of the worst Mexican food we've ever eaten.

This was a great lunch spot! We had the lunch burritos, one California and one steak. The portions are huge and the salad is very fresh. Great service, everyone checked on us through out our visit. read more

Always-great food and service. Large portions given, always have food to take home. Pleasant atmosphere, our "go to" place for good Mexican food. read more

So I was in town for work and a colleague wanted to have lunch. We ended up here after the first two options were closed and it was a Monday. Parking is plentiful in this lot, and it looks like a nice patio when the weather is nicer. Quick lunch. Our server brought out chips and salsa, didn't get to eat them but it looked fresh and chips homemade. I ordered the street tacos, Always LOVE the Al Pastor and these definitely didn't disappoint. Pineapple is in here which adds to the acidity and cuts down on the fattiness of the pork. I chose Flour (Harina) tortillas, and added some cilantro and onions to top off the meal. Just so you know, there are no sides that come with the street tacos, so if you are super hungry- you have to order a side or go with something more substantial. My colleague ordered enchiladas, they looked good. A light green creamy sauce topped them, so I thought it would be like a creamy verde or something. Anyway, this place is exactly what you are looking for when you need a fix on Mexican. I will be back, I always stay near the airport because our facility is in Mills River just a few miles away. I'll try something new next time! Support Small Businesses! read more

Food was better than good - not quite great. Service was perfect for a local restaurant, several people asked us if we needed anything and how our meal was throughout. Ambiance, local Mexican food ambiance - soccer on the tv, clean, local Mexican restaurant themed.... A solid low 4's score - underrated from my experience.... read more

I can only say that this was so good that we were here 3 nights this past week for the beef fajitas. I would love some tonight but I am back from my Asheville trip. We had Galy the first night and asked for him the two other nights. Near the Asheville airport. Stop before or after your trip. read more

This is a great little Mexican spot. It's located in a group of shopping center buildings, right off of 26 beside A larger Shopping area. It has a nice outdoor patio area, with umbrellas and lots of parking. Inside, there is a large bar to your left down the wall, and tables and booths spaced nicely apart. The staff is very friendly. I ordered their beefed up queso, which is now my favorite Mexican appetizer. It is queso, chorizo, tomatoes, green peppers, (I excluded the onions). It is so yummy and they bring you a ton of it, still bubbling. The menu is pretty basic Mexican, but it is very good, large portions and I have no complaints. The prices are pretty comparable to other Mexican restaurants in the area. All in all, good food, drinks, service and the queso was amazing. Great job! read more

My wife and I really enjoyed our lunch. The service is great and the food is very good. It appears this is a go to place for locals. There were several tables of employees from the same business out for lunch. I definitely recommend trying Casa Torres. I believe you will be glad you did. read more

The food was great and the service was fast! Very reasonable prices. The crowd looked local instead of tourists read more

I was exhausted and grumpy when I came to eat here so keep this in mind for this review. Prices-reasonable. Service-good. 3 problems. 1. Need a new TV. Current one is old and tired. 2. Do yourself a favor if you order the burritos. Ask to have the cheese sauce left off and ask for more salsa to put over it. 3. Someone please tell the waitress, who thinks she is hiding at the computer terminal adjacent to the bar to stop vaping. read more

Went in for lunch. Got seated. Asked about Salsa bar and was told they do not have it anymore. Ordered water. They brought chips and a half of cup of salsa. Ordered nachos........15 minutes later no nachos, no update, and no check in to see if everything was OK.... Walked out. Poor service and they do not seem to care unless you fit "certain clientele " Do not recomend. read more

Good food! Great value! Clean! Service was good! We sat outside, the flies were annoying, but not their fault! I would stop there next time I pass through town! read more

By far my favorite Mexican restaurant to go to. It feels just like home in a public place. My husband and I love eating here all the time. Everyone always take such good care of us. Service is always very attentive with us and our food never takes more than an hour. I ordered the burrito campechano. It was so cheesy and full of flavor. My hubby got the tacos Al pastor and trust me when I say those are the best tacos. They have the best flavor out of all of them and they are pretty filling. Definitely recommend to anyone to come check it out. 10/10 hands down!! read more

Great food!! Service could be a bit better!........The two of us hit Casa Torres on a busy Friday evening. Got seated pretty quickly. The House Margarita was pretty good. We liked the Vegetarian options, a number of them in the pretty large menu. We ordered our food and also expressed interest in the great desserts they seem to have on their menu. Although it was a Friday evening and it was somewhat busy, the tables were not full and no one was waiting for a table. So it was surprising that the waiter brought us our check instead of asking about the desserts. Oh. Well. We thought and left it at that! Service could use a little bit of bettering but the food was so good that we would go there! read more

I got the Hawaiian quesadilla because it sounded right up my ally and it did not disappoint

Okay lunch I had chicken taco salad. The pulled chicken was dry & my salad taco bowl was soggy on bottom. Chicken, lettuce, cheese & a little sour cream on top with one slice of tomato. read more

We just had the most dreadful nachos we've ever had. Soggy, floating in god knows what. No guacamole no pico absolutely dreadful. I remember this place being a bit better. Never again for me thank you!! I wanted to go to Papas but chose a closer place to home. Never again read more

Currently eating inside the restaurant and the waitress serving us won't even stand to listen she seems so rushed to do everything and so uninterested to be here. She won't even let us finish our sentences and cuts us off before she walks away. Also proceeds to slam our plates down on the table, other than that the food is good. Her name was molly. 1 star for the service, 4 stars for the food. read more

Crowded early Sunday afternoon. Seated quickly but long wait for meals to arrive. Large portions

The restaurant we had planned to go to isn't open for lunch. So, we dropped by Casa Torres and were glad we did! The food was served hot and delicious. Both dishes we ordered were very good and large quantities for the price. Not only was the food very good, but the service was great. read more

Food doesn't taste very fresh. The sauces and salsas have good flavor, but mine came out over cooked with the queso kinda clumped up. The service was a bit iffy and very slow. Overall the food was 3/5 and the service was 2/5, so I ended up rounding down bc it took us an hour to get our food. read more

Took a local's recommendation. Glad we did. I had the mexican wrap and ordered extra shredded cheese inside. Loved it. I enjoyed the whole avocado spread inside the warm chicken wrap. Loved the salsa bar, especially the spicy avocado dip! Never had that. Would definitely return. read more

Absolutely some of the best Mexican food ever. Great selection and fast friendly service. Very generous servings.....some could easily be split. read more

Love this place! We usually come in as a big group and they do their best to accommodate. We have our favorite servers- they are excellent! Food is consistently delicious. Miss the salsa bar but they'll bring you whatever you want. I've had the enchiladas, churripollo (?) which is great, but my new favorite is the El Cody. LOVE the veggies, cheese sauce, steak...soooooo good. read more

Tried this place passing through this town and wanted to get a taste of texmex. The service is fairly quick and the staff are beyond nice and hospitable. The food however was missing taste and my fajitas were a bit chewy as well as the rice was a bit mushy, other than that it was a pretty ok experience. read more

Food was very good, light not greasy, as in some places. Good portion size. Prices reasonable, had a veggie combo and a taco plate, avocado was fresh, still good food, good prices, nice simple environs, salsa bar. Did not have the warm bean dip today. the. Service a bit desultory, had to ask for napkins, silverware. No follow-up. Diners are real people, not chopped liver. Chile relleno pepper-stem was hiding out of site, wrapped up, coulda choked, did cough. Wazzap with that? Told the bus-fella. He understood and passed it uphill to cooks. We had a good chat and I doubt it will happen again. May try them again, but the stem problem was kindergarten stuff. Would otherwise give more stars. read more

South Asheville's best kept secret! We love this place! Super clean, wonderfully friendly staff, excellent food, strong margaritas and unbeatable prices! Excellent restaurant! read more

Prompt and cheerful service, even on Sunday afternoon. Family friendly great authentic Mexican food.

Delicious food at a very reasonable price! You can tell the food is made with love. I like to come here on a regular basis, especially considering it's close to my work. They have a small, but decent selection of Vegetarian dishes as well, which is nice. Totally love their refried beans as well! A small, but tasty salsa bar rounds out the good stuff, with their House Salsa being my personal favorite. Definitely recommend this place! read more

Service was fine but food was not worth stopping for. I ordered a chickeN taco salad.The chicken came from a can I think and was like soup at the bottom of the shell. It spilled all over my plate and white pants when the shell collapsed! Second salad wasn't much of an improvement. Too many other options to test this one again. read more

Surprisingly I came to Arden to find a new couch and after I checked it out I was starving. I checked my go to (Yelp obv.) and Casa Torres came up. It looked like a good possibility so I decided to check it out. As usual I asked the server for some recommendations, they sold us on a special roasted pork dish, similar to an al pastor but less pineapple type taste. It was deliciousness. The pollo ranchero was standard and so was the carne azada. The salsa bar was an unadvertised bonus, with some tasty selections. All and all, for the price it was a tasty meal with lots of flavor and great service. Btw I did buy the couch lol read more

Went for lunch. Caught end of rush, service was friendly and pretty quick. Table not as clean as it should have been but that's my only complaint there. Food was good, not great. Typical of this type of Mexican place. It did come out hot (plate was actually hot). Would I go back? Yes read more
