Front entrance waiting area
Ashley A.

Place is bigger than it looks. It's decoration are lovely and colorful. Small waiting area plus desserts to checkout before getting seated. They have a full bar with a TV As we got settled in at our table. Chips and salsas were placed down and service right away. Food was delicious. We came for breakfast and I can't wait to come back for lunch/dinner. And of course I had to try their churros and I wasn't impressed much.

Mole Enchiladas were exceptional!

Casa de Lina officially receives a 5 star rating. Having a neighborhood restaurant with this quality of food and friendly service is what dreams are made of! The inside has a home-y feel with sombreros on the walls and Mexican tablecloths. Can't wait to come back!

I've been here four times now and each time I keep saying it's just as delicious! I keep bringing anyone who will join me for amazing Mexican food. This time we ordered the menudo and chilaquiles and also had a guacamole with the chips while we waited. The food was just as delicious as I remembered it the first time! The staff just as friendly and attentive and the timing was just right! (Enough to know it's fresh food but not too long where your wondering what's happening back there) we drank the fresh squeezed lemonade and the cafe de olla. I love that the food is always so authentically tasty and the decore just reminds me of the little decorations I see in my tias houses. If you want to try authentic Mexican food you should stop by and see what they have. I still like everything I've had and will continue to come for the menudo and bring new friends so I can also try their plates lol. This looks like a little hole in the wall restaurant but don't let it deceive you, it opens up to a large dinning area with plenty of space. So bring your friends or come alone, either way, the food won't disappoint!

New favorite Mexican food restaurant. This place is amazing . I've had breakfast and lunch here now and both times I didn't leave a crumb on my plate ! It's also 5 min away from my house!! The Mexican Coffee is the BEST !! I will eventually try everything on the menu lol . The atmosphere is great and you feel very comfortable like it's home .

Queso Sauce Cup

As a white girl married to a Mexican in another life (lol), I learned about mole' from my first MIL. I was immediately in love with it and shocked that it contained peanut butter & cocoa powder. Let me say that the very first bite of the mole enchiladas here sent me reeling back to her kitchen 40 years ago. YUM The queso was very good, as was the salsa. The warm chips with the queso seemed much fresher than the ones we got with our salsa. Hubby got the chicken fajitas and said they were good, although served differently than most Mexican restaurants now. No showy sizzling plate, just nice hot food. Our service was top notch - very friendly and fast and the frozen margarita was excellent!! No weird neon green here... actually looked and tasted of real lime juice. Ambiance was like being in a Meccan resort town. We came here because of other Yelp reviews and we were not disappointed.

We stopped by for breakfast and I highly recommend this place. Definitely authentic Mexican breakfast! They start you off with complimentary chips and salsa. Salsa has a great kick to it! They do have spicier salsa available if you ask for it. The service was very attentive and wonderful. Ambiance is relaxed! The Huevos rancheros were so tasty and the salsa was also spicy which was great for me. Wish the regular coffee would have been much warmer but other than that a great place to eat ! They do offer tequila as well!

Post pop up taco Tuesday run!

Started out with great hot sauce! Good drinks! I had the chicken enchilada trio and it was great! Service was good and the new addition to the dining room was nice.

Chicken Enchiladas with Sour Cream.
Melissa V.

My friend said something negative about this restaurant so I wanted to check it out. Lol. I needed to go to the Threading Salon and my Dad needed to eat breakfast so, I told my Dad to get breakfast and order me something. Then when I was done at the threading salon, I would meet him at the restaurant. I waited a bit at the Threading Salon so, when I got to the restaurant I thought my food would be ready but it wasn't?. Just about every table was full and they seem to have help. I'm not sure what was going on? Then I waited some more while in the restaurant. The ladies spoke English and they were really nice. The first batch of chips we got were old and stale. The Hot Sauce had a subtle kick to it. The second batch of Chips were warm and fresh. If you get your order to go, they give you a complimentary Salsa and Chips. I ordered the Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas. They were two large flower tortillas topped with Sour Cream and a good amount of shredded Chicken. The shredded chicken was bland and the sour cream sauce was just okay. The Beans were very tasty. The Rice liked flavor but, it did have a few peas in it. The visual presentation was spot on. I took half of my lunch home and it was so good! This Restaurant is for everybody. You see the semi young couple on a date and you see the Senior couple on a date, you see the large Hispanic family and you see the hard-working Hispanic laborers chowing down, along with a guy that came from the gym and grabbed his family with him. I really enjoyed the ambience of the Restaurant. There's a lot of detail that grabs your eye. I love the name of this restaurant too. In English it translates to The House of Lina.

Chile Relleno
Ron G.

Saw Bud Kennedy's review on La Casa and thought we would try it. Wow, it was really good! Very simple interiors, clean and a little cute The chips and salsa were exceptional. The salsa had some heat, but really tasted good, a little like Uncle Julio's, but better. Had their top shelf margarita and loved it. We had the chicken enchiladas verdes and the chile rellenos. Both were very good, the enchilada verdes at Los Asaderos are the best, but these were very good. Enjoyed the food, drinks and friendly service staff. I have read that their food was very authentic interior Mexican. All I know it was great!

Trio Enchiladas with salsa ! Hubbie had this lovely sampler. Delicious. Our favorite was mole. Excellent flavor
Deb S.

Food was amazing and authentic Mexican! Loved the verde salsa. Pork was tender and spicy delicious. I give it a six out of ten in heat. A nine out of ten for street taco. ( I'm picky). Ambiance was casual sweet Mexican home town cafe like going to ABuela's after school. Love it Service was warm welcoming and great

Mole Enchiladas.
Kevin W.

Truly yummy authentic home cooked Mexican food! The wife and I were in Texas looking for some good Mexican food on this time out. We found this exceptional family owned and operated hole in the wall and it did not disappoint. The service was friendly and our server helped me choose between two items I was in between. By far the best homemade mole enchiladas I've ever had in my life! The server told me her grandmother was the one who made it and I could tell it was true, and made with love. The flavors were so complex and amazing! My Mexico born wife agreed with my assessment and she loved her meal as well. Highly recommend if you'd like some great authentic Mexican food while in Fort Worth area.

Trio Enchiladas & Cafe de Olla (must try)!
Paola C.

Don't skip the Cafe de Olla! It was like a hug in a cup. The smell was amazing and I definitely recommend it, they also give you 1 free refill. Very generous portions, attentive & friendly service. Plenty of seating. Everything we ordered was amazing and the chips & salsa were made fresh (warm tortilla chips & fresh tomato salsa) we will definitely be coming back for the price and quality of food it's worth it.

Courtney Z.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! Server was super friendly, wasn't busy so I was comfortable with my 4 month old. The food is AMAZING and we will definitely be going back.

We shared a bottle of California Sauvignon Blanc to accompany the Ceviche Tatemado followed by the Tacos de Barbacoa which is the Tuesday lunch special. Both the ceviche and barbacoa tacos were just so enjoyable. The striped bass and octopus ceviche here is a unique preparation that sings in the tangy lime and Serrano vinaigrette in which it is prepared. The barbacoa is so flavorful and tender; and the thin, house made flour tortilla is fried crispy on the flat top before being filled. So good.

The outdoor seating is so charming lush plants, colorful flowers, and a peaceful fountain that makes you want to stay awhile. I had the chicken fajita bowl, and it was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. The margaritas were definitely tempting but I behaved and stuck with water... next time for sure. Only minor thing, there was water on the floor going into and inside the bathroom, which could be a slipping hazard. A "wet floor" sign would definitely help. Beautiful atmosphere, relaxed vibe. Such a great little getaway in the middle of the day.

We were recently in Ft Worth and decided to give Joe T Garcia's a try. We had been about 15 years…read moreago and were not impressed then. But we always hear people talk about how great Joe T's is so we thought maybe we just an isolated bad experience 15 years ago. But this time, it was even worse. Maybe people don't speak unfavorably out of fear of being shamed for not praising this "institution"? We arrived on a Wednesday at 5:30 so fortunately our unpleasant experience was not further worsened with a wait. The patio is still very beautiful and umbrellas were positioned to provide ample shade. But the fly situation was very annoying and could probably be helped with the spinning devices on tables or fans spread throughout the patios. The beauty of the patio doesn't compensate enough to endure the flies. The service started out good with waters, chips/salsa brought instantly. But within 15 minutes the service rapidly declined as more customers were seated. It was very tedious to the point of annoying to get refills on our drinks. Literally within 2-3 minutes of ordering we asked our waitress to switch one of the fajita orders from chicken to beef. She initially said "oh I'm sorry but I JUST put the order in". We looked puzzled and said "ok then it shouldn't be a problem changing it?" She went on to explain that she would add the beef to our table and just switch the chicken order to another table next to us who ordered chicken that she had not put in yet. All of that sounded very bizarre but the food was correct when it was delivered our table. At the time the plates were brought we requested a side of sour cream but it didn't come. After 5-10 minutes we spotted our server and requested it from her. But we still never got the sour cream. As I was paying the tab my daughter noticed that we were charged for an extra chicken fajita. So even though the server got the beef fajita added right after we ordered, she didn't take the chicken off the bill. She adjusted it once we pointed out the error. The food was the biggest disappointment out of all of it. I will always give grace to sub par service or atmosphere if the food is great. I say this with the utmost sincerity, I've had more flavorful beef and chicken at Chipotle. The chicken was so dry and served in big chunks which made it even tougher to chew. I seriously could not detect a hint of any seasoning, not even salt. It was very hot but not like the traditional sizzling fajita hot, more like it had been sitting in a heating pan or under heat lamps. For way too long. The beef was a tad bit easier to chew than the chicken but just as bland. The queso that we ordered tasted like canned cheese sauce watered down with chicken or vegetable broth and a tablespoon of pico added. The portion sizes of the entrees, the tortillas, the pico, the guacamole were all very generous. It's just a shame that it doesn't taste good.

The restaurant has plenty of seating, though it can still get pretty busy during peak times. Even when it's full, it's still comfortable enough to have a good conversation without feeling too crowded or loud. Overall, it's a reliable neighborhood spot with good food, good drinks, and consistently solid service.

They're your typical trendy taco place, with their own selection of merchandise and crazy/cheesy jokes strewn about on t-shirts and signage. They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter.

The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
