My family and I absolutely love Mi Casa! Funny story...when a pastor friend first invited me to "Mi Casa," I genuinely thought he was inviting me over to his house for dinner (since "mi casa" means "my house"). Turns out, he was talking about Mi Casa Mexican Food in Lakewood off Woodruff! Ever since that first visit, I've kept coming back...not just because the food is great, but because the service is consistently awesome. Eli, the owner, has such a calm demeanor even when the place is super busy, and he's always polite and attentive. That kind of presence really makes a difference. My go-to order is the three-item combo, which comes with a beef crunchy taco, cheese enchilada, and chili relleno...highly recommend it! The only small thing I wish is that they had soda on tap, but honestly, it's not a big deal at all since they have delicious aguas frescas. If you're ever in the area, you should definitely give them a try! read more

Mi Casa - 3 Item Plate - Hard Shell Beef Taco, Cheese Enchilada and Chile Relleno - Mexican Near Me - Lakewood, California

Completely renovated inside and seems bigger since it's more open now. Delicious food and delighted to find that I could still order chips and cheese with guacamole, which I don't believe is on the menu but if you know about it, they'll still make it. I highly recommend it.. Very pleasantly surprised with their Albondigas soup. I had just a cup, but it had three good sized meatballs and plenty of vegetables in a delectable broth. Parking is still a problem, but typically you can find spots in the back and come in through the Burro Room (bar). Service was very good, and I say that having not had great service there a few times in the past. The waitress taking care of us today , Jackie, did a great job! read more

Mi Casa - Chilaquiles con huevo - Mexican Near Me - Lakewood, California

I was craving enchiladas and found this spot. This is a small family own restaurant that has been around for a long time I think. The owner made small conversations with his returning customers, and it was nice to see that. The place is a bit old and could use some updated ventilation. When they bring out their sizzling fajitas, the restaurant becomes smoky. It didn't bother me as much since I was ordering takeout out. He offered chips and salsa while I wait for the order. The salsa was spicier than I thought! It was good. The chicken enchiladas with the green sauce and the rice and refried beans hit the spot. It was exactly what I was craving for. I found my go to spot for this area when I get my enchiladas craving now. read more

Wanted to try something new for breakfast and found Mi casa in the city of Lakewood... we ordered mechaca, a mexican specialty made with shredded beef and eggs. And i had the huevos rancheros, over easy eggs over a soft corn tortilla. Both served with rice and beans or potatoes . I knew right away it was going to be good just from the presentation. after the first bite, i was right!! All the flavors were perfectly delicious. The melted cheese , the warm beans . And the tasty sauce over eggs. A perfect yes for the flavor!! As far as the service goes? Awesome customer service! We'll definitely be back to try their other dish and the Cosido, a Wednesday special read more

My husband and I chose to eat there because we heard the food was delish as well as that they were supporting our Kaiser nurses who are on strike. We shared the El Jefe breakfast burrito and it was SO GOOD! The salsa was an added plus. The servers were polite and very attentive. We will be returning! read more

Had the cheeseburger, fries and drink. The cheeseburger was so delicious and juicy. The bun was nice. It was soft and tasted, but got a little mushy, but I ate the burger anyway. Fries? Nothing special! I also ordered a kid's onion rings. It was just enough (5). The side salad looks delicious. I will enjoy it tomorrow for lunch. The drink is absolutely huge! I had my order delivered so I am unable to rate the ambiance. If you want a big juicy burger, Now you know where to go! It's definitely better than a fast food!!!! You can't go wrong with $9.99!!! read more

Excellent service , tasty food , very nice people . Family atmosphere. I believe the prices are very reasonable.

Chicken enchiladas are the way to go. We are not just talking about left over chicken that was hap hazardly put into corn tortillas with a sauce. We are talking slow roasted chicken that falls apart when you cut into it. Huge chunks of chicken inside. You will be stuffed. read more

Attended a birthday celebration here today. Casual dining, no music, just a TV on in the corner. Servers were friendly and attentive. Food is bland and basic Mexican choices. They don't serve Non Alcoholic drinks , asked for diet coke didn't have that either. Another guest ordered a Dr Pepper that didn't arrive ! Servers sang Happy Birthday and brought out our own cake with candles. Family owned restaurant. read more

My family has been coming here for years. I've always liked the food. My usual is a bean and cheese burrito while my mom gets their french fries lol. When she visits, Mi Casa is one of the top places on her list. My brother tried a carne asada burrito which he said was just ok. It only has meat, beans, and cilantro. He wishes there were onions, tomatoes, cheese, and rice. This last time, I tried the fried ice cream. It was huge and really yummy. The customer service is always spectacular. They are so nice and very attentive. They make sure we have everything we need and are satisfied. Prices are reasonable, about $10-$15 per person. We will continue coming here and recommend it to others. read more

Review is solely for their menudo. Ordered a takeout for their large menudo ($13) and it came with 3 small corn tortillas. Since it wasn't enough, I asked for more which came out to $1.50 for 3 more small tortillas. Side note: Typically, other restaurants like the ones in Hawaiian Gardens give extra for free. Menudo wasn't really filled up to the top. There were tendon bones in there, but no tendons, just tripe and hominy. It was extremely salty and watery. My eyes started to twitch after one bite. It was so salty, I couldn't even eat anymore. The soup was so watered down that even adding water wouldn't help. Really wanted to like this place, but I'm sad to say that their menudo is one of the worst ones I've ever had. read more

My mom & I never agree on what's good Mexican, as she's so picky, but we have a winner! I saw a review about the beans not tasting like basic canned beans and I could not agree more. She got menudo and a pork tamale. I got the 2 enchilada plate. Omg SO. GOOD. I am struggling to stop eating despite being super full. Checked on Mom and (in between yummy noises) she said the menudo was delicious. Rice and beans we agree also, she said "delish." Service was good too. We were taking forever to decide what to eat and ended up being helped by three different people, since they had things to do - all of them kind and helpful. read more

Very happy with our dinner order. Tacos were delicious as were the sides. Nice to have it close by.

Wow they wanted 50 doallars for 7 tacos last time my last order now . Loved this place sad that i have to say no more amigos !

Stopped by for Saturday brunch with my mother. We were seated right away at a booth and given time to go over the menu. Chips and salsa were served while we were deciding what to eat, chips were warm, salsa with a bit of a kick to it. I ordered a tostada and my mom ordered the chilaquiles from the breakfast menu. We also ordered a chicken enchilada a la carte. The food was so good, chicken was tender and soft. My tostada came with guac and sour cream, I only wish there was a little more guac, you get a tiny tiny scoop of it. Can't wait to come back, the service itself is a reason to re-visit, they really treat you well here. read more

Love this place. Service is friendly and quick. Food is delicious. Been going there for years.

Cindy was very hospitable and helpful! I love the fact that it's family-owned & super clean. The food was fresh and hot and didn't disappoint AT ALL! I take my hat off to the chef/cook. When I'm in the area I know to start coming here now. Cindy provided me with an array of options of things to try for a first time customer, considering my eyes were bigger than my stomach. read more

Mi Casa - I got the combo plate with a potato taco, chicken enchilada with green sauce & Chile Reno. So bomb! - Mexican Near Me - Lakewood, California

I have been going here with my family for years. The food is amazing and the staff is so kind. Couldn't recommend them enough!

I was out of Thanksgiving leftovers and didn't feel like cooking on a Monday night so Mexican food was the decision. Given this was my first time here, I was pleasantly surprised with the menu options. The quality of the burrito I ordered to go was on point. Everything was great about it but I did order a chimichanga so I was expecting the outer exterior to be more crispy. My friend ordered the taco, enchilada, and Chile relleno combo. Taco was great, enchilada & chile relleno were ok, but disappointed it came with rice pilaf and not traditional MX rice. Great service from when I called in and to picking up the order. I'll for sure come again to try other items and their salsa is quite tasty. read more

This place hit the spot after celebrating a wedding the night before. I got the El Jefe breakfast burrito w/ chorizo, which was amazingly delicious. My girlfriend got the El Patron burrito with shredded beef, which was also tasty! Heads up though, the micheladas come w/ ice, so we just ordered it without. Awesome service & comfortable ambience. read more

The food was flavorful. The rice and beans were the right flavor. The food was hot and looked like the picture in the menu.
