Just ate here for the first time - 10/10. The food was delicious, we got the salsa and Guac and tomato salad to start ; they were both fresh and flavorful. I really appreciated that they had a vegetarian impossible taco for a main. Our server Tiana was so personable and took great care of us. We will definitely be back. read more

Casita Restaurant was such a great experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere had the perfect vibe, and everything just felt welcoming and well put together. A special shoutout to Ana, she was amazing. So attentive, friendly, and genuinely made the whole experience even better. You can tell she really cares about the guests. Definitely a spot I'd come back to and recommend to anyone looking for great food and a fun, relaxed vibe. read more

Casita was a great Mother's Day brunch spot for my wife, our two teenagers, and me. This was our first time here, and overall, we had a really nice experience. The service was excellent. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal. I'll also admit that I'm not usually someone who gravitates toward modern Mexican restaurants. I've always been more of a street tacos kind of guy. That said, I really appreciated the food and the overall experience here. I know some people harp on the chips and salsa not being free, and I believe it was around $21. For as much as I complain about prices, I actually thought it was more reasonable than it sounds because it came with several salsas, including a large guacamole. The prices overall are definitely higher than your average Mexican restaurant, but for the quality, service, and occasion, I was okay with it. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the 3% service charge. Even though it only came out to around $4, I'd rather restaurants just build that into the menu prices and call it a day. Other than that, we had a very good experience and would come back. read more

My friends took me to Casita as I'm visiting LA. They've never been but heard good things. We had a reservation and was walked to table quickly. Our attentive waiter,Eli, welcomed us and asked us what we wanted to drink. We got margaritas. Then he mentioned a couple popular items but we ordered Guacamole, shrimp ceviche, tuna tartar, chicken taquitos, chicken enchiladas, Al pastor tacos, carne asada tacos. Overall we were impressed with Eli's service and the food quality. We would come back. If you're in the hood and want Mexican give them a try. Bonus. They allowed dogs in the place. Lively and almost fun club atmosphere read more

We were a party of 3 on a Thursday. Great service and a great vibe. We got there around 5:30 when it was pretty empty, and by the time we left at 7:30 it was completely packed. We started with the yellowtail with passion fruit and tuna tartare. The yellowtail was tart and fresh, really nice to start. The tuna tartare was a bit fishy and a little too salty for my taste. Then we had carne asada chicharrones which had great flavor, but pretty chewy. The chicken wings were very crispy but over seasoned, so the flavor did not really stand out. We then had tacos. Each order comes with two each, but we added an extra one since we were three people. The ribeye was thin with a lot of onions but had good flavor. The barbacoa was solid. The carnitas was my favorite. We ended with churros for dessert. They were crunchy and sweet, probably frozen, but still a good way to finish the meal. Overall it was a good experience and I would recommend but a few short falls so 4 stars. read more

Came here for drinks and bites during happy hour and was pleasantly surprised. The space is really beautiful. There is greenery throughout, warm lighting, and a bar setup that feels modern but still inviting. It definitely sets a fun, slightly elevated tone. We ordered a few tacos and their Salsa & Guacamole tower. The margaritas were really well balanced (not overly sweet), and everything came out looking great. Portions lean more towards family/ shareable style, so it's best to order a few things to share. Our server Jenna was amazing- super attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations, which really elevated the experience. The manager Nick also came by to check in, chatted with us for a bit, and even gave us his card. Just genuinely nice and made us feel taken care of. One thing to note, happy hour is bar seating only. We weren't aware beforehand, but they were able to accommodate us by moving us to high-top seating right by the bar so we could still order from the happy hour menu, which we really appreciated. It does get pretty busy and a bit loud once it fills up, so just keep that in mind if you're looking for something more low-key. Valet parking is available, which makes it easy. Overall, a great spot for drinks and appetizers! Would definitely come back to try more from the menu. read more

It was the start of daylight saving and it was international women's day. The days are now longer and the weather was beautiful so I wanted to treat myself to a solo date. I also wanted to try a new restaurant in the neighborhood. I pull up and it was their happy hour so I sit at the bar. The vibe was very chill and I ended up conversing with two separate parties. I ordered my first drink, a spicy passionfruit margarita. It's a perfect blend of spicy, tart sweetness. I also had a watermelon margarita and it wasn't my favorite. I assumed it would be more refreshing than it was, but it was a bit on the sweeter side. I ordered the shrimp ceviche. While it was a refreshing starter, it lacked a bit of flavor. The waiter also forgot my chips :/. My neighbor was kind enough to give me his chips so disaster averted. I ordered the caesar salad and omg it was the highlight of my meal. It was delicious with a hint of heat from the spiced pepitas that increased the flavor. This is probably the best caesar salad this side of town. I am not even a crouton person but the seasoning on the croutons were seriously so amazing. The taquitos were pretty amazing too. I'd like to add that they are pretty generous with the guacamole. I love guac! I definitely will return to try other items on the menu. read more

Beautiful restaurant with a tropical touch. I loved dining here. The open windows and beautiful weather added the perfect vibe to my Sunday. Valet, street, and nearby parking are available, although I can imagine it gets very busy at times. The Bloody Maria was perfectly balanced. I'm a big breakfast burrito gal, but I wish it had been cut in half before serving, not to pieces, and maybe the garnishes were put aside. The wrap had become very soggy, and I ended up eating it with a fork and pushing most of the tortilla aside. The servers were attentive and friendly. read more

We went on a Thursday for DineLA and I think it's worth it! The food was delicious especially the fish tacos for me. The chips were essentially free flowing that we're full already towards the end and can't finish the chicken anais lol. Their salsas and other dips are dangerously good with the chips! The butter cake was not my favorite since it's a little too sweet for my liking. The cocktails at Casita are well-crafted, unfortunately you can't avail of the happy hour when you're on table seating. The servers, however, are really pleasant and even allowed us to do a round from the happy hour menu. Always a great time at this place! *Parking is valet or street parking :) read more

We came here on Easter for brunch as I have only come here for dinner and drinks in the past. We each got something different so we could all try a little of each other's plates. 1. French Toast 5/10 The texture was good however not much flavor unless you ate it with the sauce and the berries that came on the side and it's two small slices which really is just one slice of bread so for the price not worth it in my opinion. 2. Breakfast burrito 9/10 This was really good all of the flavors with the different proteins, eggs and potatoes was a good combination. 3. Yellowtail Passionfruit Aguachiles 7/10 This was interesting it's wasn't bad but the waiter came after being the plate and later poured the passionfruit sauce into the center and it was quite overwhelming since it was so much. We wish he had poured less and then left some for us to keep oh the side for us to add as we are. They also don't serve this with any tortilla chips or tostadas which is odd because that type of dish should come with it. 4. Espresso Martini 10/10 they use their house tequila which and Mr Black coffee liqueur The ambiance was great I love the inside decor. Service was good they were pretty attentive and gave good suggestions. I think this would be the first and last time I came here for brunch tho. I'll stick to dinner and drinks read more

We came back to Casita last night for Cinco de Mayo and it did not disappoint! The vibes were great- it was packed and they made it super fun to celebrate with great music. Their spicy margarita was so tasty and strong. Their guacamole platter was great too- but spicy if you're sensitive to that. Service was so fast even though they were super busy. Overall would definitely recommend stopping by. read more

LOVE the ambiance here - the service is pretty good, it's always busy but the food comes out pretty quickly. I recommend getting the chip tower so you can all the different salsas! Their tacos are street style so a little on the smaller side but so delicious! I would recommend getting a few and sharing! If you're looking for some good Mexican food definitely check it out! read more

Came here to Casita a few years ago when it first opened and failed to do a review. However, I came here this past Saturday and it was nice! Sat at the bar and had happy hour, which is daily 4-6:30pm. I think that's awesome for happy hour on the weekend!!! Just a Brilliant idea. The food was decent not bad but could have been a lil better! The guac was good and the chicken nachos from Happy hour menu. They could have put more beans all over the nacho chips, but it was still pretty good overall 4/5 for me. I also had the passion fruit Margarita that was decent just a lil too sweet for me. The servers at the bar were all nice and on it. Fast service and great sense of humor. It wasn't too packed but very modern and nice with big and small parties. I did valet for $14 and I think that's good sense street parking is rare -Marshay D. read more

Love coming to Casita! It's perfect for just about anything. Have visited with all sorts of people even kids and they've all enjoyed it. The atmosphere is always lively and inviting. The team is very attentive, shot out to Kiki for great service! My go to's are the Chicharrones, Calamari, Little gems Salad, Rib Eye Tacos, Australian Wagyu Plate. Appreciate that most of their drinks can be made into Mocktails. If you're into that I recommend the Strawberry Basil Margarita. read more

Cute little spot. Nicely decorated. Our waitress was great! Sadly I don't remember her name. I tried the Avocado margarita and wasn't a fan. They thankfully switched out the drink for me. The spicy passionfruit margarita was my favorite. The food was good, especially the carne asada large plate. Only got 4 stars due to serving size being small. Was stated to be family style but one person could've finished the plate alone. However, I'd come back. The carne asada plate was that good. read more

DELICIOUS! We visited on Sunday evening to find All Day Happy Hour! Danny offered amazing suggestions! He was personable and made a fantastic margarita! The host was also very friendly. We felt very welcomed. We settled on House Margaritas with Tajin rim and Fried Calamari, Chicken Taquitos, and Caesar salad. The flavors were unique and amazing! The music was lively with local sports on the TVs playing silently. Our grazing meal was topped off with Butter Cake served with vanilla ice cream and topped with fresh strawberries! We will definitely return on Taco Tuesday to try the tacos and another all day happy hour offering. read more

Came for a double date on a Friday night and it was slammed! Our table was completely smashed up against another high top that it was hard to get to our seats. I didn't love how cramped it felt, but the energy in the restaurant was very lively! Love the list of cocktails and variety of tequila available. I ordered the Cava and enjoyed it very much. Previously when I visited Casita, I was blown away by the food. This time around, I didn't quite feel the same day. Plates are small and meant to be shared. We ordered a bunch of tacos and I would say you need at least two per person. The shrimp ones were my favorite, but none of them were super stand out as far as flavor. They have very little vegan options, but are able to accomodate however they can. The cauliflower as a veg options was just OK. Enchiladas were so small and you only get three, so not the most ideal plate to share in a group of four. I personally did not care for the flaming panela. They set it on fire before they set it on the table which is cool, but it was just so soaked in so much tequila that I couldn't even taste the cheese. The strongest flavor in the street corn was the char. I don't think I'd order it again. Service however was amazing. Our waitress could not have been more lovely. Even the hostesses were great! read more

I have been going to Casita since they opened and I have always had the best time I got a reservation an hour before the dinner time and no matter how busy they are they always get you a seat right away The food was amazing specially the Caesar salad was recommended by the waiter . The lemon drop is so delicious and balanced Casita and VLVD steak house ( same owner) has the best service and food Thank you for your service read more

Spent a late Valentine's Day dinner here with my fiance! Loved every minute of it. The ambiance is very Intimate! The food here was so flavorful! Mind you, all the food can be shared also. We started off with the crudo - one of the best dishes on the menu! Had the yellowtail crudo (drenched in a yummy yuzu sauce), chips w/ guac, fried calamari (comes with 2 different dipping sauces, & the chicken enchiladas. We also ordered the barbacoa & al pastor tacos with a side of cilantro rice & beans. Towards the end of the dinner, we had dessert with the sparkler. Delicious delicious delicious!!!! Service was great too! Shoutout to Polo- such a great server! Definitely would recommend this to others! read more

Came here by myself for happy hour because I was craving for some tacos. Ordered the carnitas, barbacoa, and al pastor tacos, as well as a crudo. The crudo was good but not amazing. The tacos were good, but again, I've had better. I was hoping the salsas could've jazzed it up a bit more. I ordered some chips with different salsas and guac, but the salsas were lackluster as well. For about $70, it felt a tad disappointing but service and ambiance were great! I'd probably come back with more people to try other things on the menu, other than tacos. read more

My first experience here was amazing! Took my mom here for my her bday. My friend came with us as well and has been here before and also loves it here. We ordered so many tacos, we ordered the corn tamale, Wagyu tacos, rib eye tacos, carne asada, shrimp, chicken tinga and al pastor! They were all so delicious! The ribeye and the Wagyu tacos were our favorite. Delilah was our server and she was the best! Super sweet, kind and attentive! We were also served butter cake for my mom's birthday and it was just so special! The ambiance was nice and lively, I recommend this place for a good time. I also ordered Churros to go!

My sis & I went out to an early dinner, she works next to Casita, that it may be more small plates, yet delicious. Big booth, nice relaxing atmosphere. Delilah, our wait person, listened to our needs (sis-shellfish allergy, me-vegan) and made suggestions plus easy mods for kitchen, & we could eat. WOW! She's fantastic, super knowledgeable about menu details, which is so appreciated. Salsa Tower is a MUST! The chipotle salsa had egg, so we got double the jicama-avocado pico, which we each polished off it was sooo good, and got a refill. :D We also got the Guacamole, chunky goodness. Next up Roasted Cauliflower- romesco, capers and cumin. It was HUGE, Smoky, perfectly roasted. Street corn we had with the cojita cheese on side. So good, because CORN! Recommendation by Delilah were the Impostor tacos. Sis suggested we get 2 orders (last time she got different tacos there they were tiny), these were piled high on street tortillas. That Jalapeño-cashew cheese was creamy deliciousness. We even had leftovers! We could not decide on a favorite as everything was so good! Thank YOU!! read more

I really wanted to like this place because the vibe is genuinely cool--great atmosphere, stylish decor, and a fun energy overall. Unfortunately, the experience didn't match the price point. The portions are incredibly small for what they charge. Don't be fool by their descriptions of "Family Style" plates. For a restaurant at this level, you expect to leave feeling satisfied, not still hungry. What really pushed things over the edge, though, were all the added fees. Our $300 bill ended up close to $400 after everything was tacked on--miscellaneous employee fees, tax, tip, and other charges. It just felt excessive and frustrating. I don't mind paying for quality, but the value simply isn't there. Between the small portions and the inflated final bill, it's hard to justify coming back. read more

The spicy passion fruit margarita is VERY spicy. Also, the avocado marg is delicious. Ambiance is nice and the service is good, bartenders are quick even when they are super slammed. I enjoyed the salsa matcha chicken wings because they were very crunchy. I didn't get a lot of salsa matcha flavor though. The passionfruit yellowtail was underwhelming. My favorite item was the corn tamal. Mexican places like this are usually a let down for me. I would come back for a cocktail! read more

Wow wow wow!!! We found Casita through Resy and I'm so glad we chose it to celebrate my friend's birthday and engagement, it was such a great experience from start to finish From the moment we arrived, evervthing felt welcoming. Nick, the manager, greeted us right away, and we ended up sitting at the bar during happy hour (which worked out perfectlv). Alec took care of us and was amazing- super attentive, friendly, and just made the whole experience even better!!!!! The vibe is so good-fun, lively, and perfect for a celebration. And the food and drinks...uhmmm---- DELICIOUS We had nachos, street corn, tacos, calamari, taquitos, and the flaming panela (literally on fire S) -everything was SO GOOD! Definitely a spot I'd come back to! read more

Stopped by for happy hour at the bar @5pm on a Monday & the food & drinks were delicious not to mention the great happy hour deals. Got the Casita Margarita, flaming panela, imposter tacos, guac, yellowtail crudo, & shrimp ceviche. I like my guac more crunchy but otherwise everything was great & definitely recommend getting the panela cheese! I haven't had it flamed before so it was unique to try. Service was great and ambiance is modern Mexican. Will definitely be back. Cheers! read more

The food is solid. The ambience is not bad. The waitress was friendly and attentive, she was great. Why only 3 stars and not 5? The Achilles heal of so many restuarants . . . the hostess. She went by the name "Lola" and instead of waiting by the podium she decided to just chill leaning on a wall with her phone. It literally took 5 mins to figure out that she worked there. And that was only revealed after the manager/security, someone who looked like she came right off the set of Janet Jackson's Rhythem Nation music video (no joke, the outfit was legit) came to talk to her. That's your first impression of this place. A horrible one. And of course the table wasn't ready for the reserved time she still needed to go clean it up. Next time we'll just take the extra 25mins and go to Beverly Hills to avoid pauing to experience lazy/slopy service. read more

Casita is not your typical Sherman Oaks restaurant; it's got an upscale vibe and a nice menu, perfect for a date but also welcoming for families, too. They also have a happy hour at the bar, most days! I loved the tower of chips and salsa; it felt a bit like a salsa tasting, given the variety. In terms of other food, the options are fairly limited for vegetarians. Taco-wise, there's an Impossible taco, and that's it. It'd be nice to see more plant-based options. read more

Love coming to Casita, everytime is I try something new on the menu and I never get disappointed. Salsa and chips and add guacamole to the salsas. Starts from mild to habanero salsa. Yellowtail is fresh and refreshing. Shrimp ceviche is also a must I've tried several tacos and all are delicious. Carne asada plate, make sure you get it medium, very juicy good quality meat, comes with rice,beans if you would like, grilled Mexican onions, and chipotle salsa, and 2 different flavor salts.

Group of 4 on a Saturday night. Had a reservation at 7:30 pm, wasn't seated till 8:15.
