I'd seen some terrible reviews of La Casita online but if being a person who writes online…read morerestaurant reviews teaches you anything, it's when other ones are not totally legit. So I ignored them and went anyway and I'm glad I did because it was a really delicious, good value meal with great friendly service. Rich and I shared the choriqueso and the guacamole bowl to start. The choriqueso as you may be able to guess is a ton of chorizo with a ton of melted cheese. Of course this was bloody delicious. The guacamole was good too, I'm not sure what was achieved by it being in a tortilla bowl but it definite didn't detract from anything. For mains I had tacos el pastor and Rich had fajitas with chicken and chorizo. The tacos were great - no weird hard shells here - and the filling very tasty. If I had any complaints here it would be that the meat had a slightly 'chalky' aftertaste, so possibly I'd try another taco filling on another visit. The hot sauce that comes with the tacos is pretty bloody hot, believe them when they say that. Rich's only complaint was that the fajitas came with a large amount of filling and only two small tortillas. To drink I had a bottle of Sol and a very good, very strong margarita. Rich had a pint of lager and a rum and coke. For two starters, two mains and four drinks we paid around £50 which I thought was pretty good. I'll definitely be back! I just hope it sticks around as businesses seem to come and go in this location (so go support them!).

Worth a visit just for the Chimichangas! I ordered these as a starter and they were 3 small-ish…read moredeep fried pulled pork burritos, and were absolutely delicious! A layer of lettuce sat on top with cream served with pico de gallo (Fresh Mexican salsa), and a spicy dipping sauce. The pulled pork was juicy and full of flavour, the outside was nice and crispy, and the spicy sauce was the perfect addition. I made a major foodie error, and ordered the Cochinita Pibil burrito for my main, which is basically an upsacle non-fried version of the Chimichangas - in my defence: PULLED PORK! The Cochinita Pibil was slow cooked pulled-pork marinated in oranges, lime and traditional Mayan flavouring, and was spot on! I HAVE NO REGRETS The restaurant is a quaint little place at the Chorlton end of Barlow Moor Road, with a large open window and terrace, which is great on a warm Summers' night like on the night I visited. The inside is filled with Mexican style décor, like an awesome painting depicted Cinco de Mayo celebrations. The price was very reasonable and service was great, friendly and attentive, and I will definitely return to sample the guacamole, and bigger variety of their dishes.

This review is bittersweet. It's sweet because this was the…read moremost delicious Mexican food I have had in a long long time. It's bitter because as of 12th January 2020 ... this restaurant will be closed . I was told to try this restaurant by multiple people on a Facebook group and when I heard it was closing, I knew I had to come up especially to try it before it closes. This being the first time I've tried an authentic Mexican restaurant (one that isn't Taco Bell or barburrito (nothing wrong with those places by the way, I love them too)) I didn't know what to expect. I checked the menu before hand to see if I could order something (I noticed there was calamari, octopus and prawns and other things I haven't tried yet) but saw there was old faithful chicken and steak. I think part of the reason it closed was because it was a little hard to find. Luckily I go around the street often on my way to forbidden planet so I had an idea where it was. I got into the place fine and noticed it looked a little like it's parent restaurant (solita) with its layout and decor. This isn't a bad thing btw ... it fits in well with the trendy norther quarter kink. For some it could have been a bad thing but I didn't mind, but when I got in, I got seen to fairly quickly but the only 1 seat available was next to the till and near the kitchen, I didn't mind as I could have a peek into how to make Mexican food .. although I was near the prep area so I pooped out of luck there. The place was busy though so there was a little wait, but I didn't mind, I didn't have anywhere else to be and was able to read a small chapter of my book. I ordered a starter of tostada volcanos with steak (I was worried volcanos meant spicy but it didn't ) followed by a main of tinga de pollo quesadilla and a side or tortilla chips. For some reason they arrived out of order with the quesadilla first and then the others came shortly afterwards .. which is fine coz usually I want it all rather than the starter, then to wait. Omg .. it was all delicious ... the quesadilla was super tasty with the perfect amount of meat, cheese and a little kick which I like. The tortilla chips were multicoloured and really crispy and freshly made .. none of the store bought ones. However I found them a little dry but my uncultured heathen self usually has salsa with them .. which I may have been able to ask for but hey ho. The tostada was out of this world ... sometimes steak can be cooked and be chewy but this was glorious ... it melted in my mouth and there was no struggle to chew it. If I could have 3 tonne of it, I would have. The whole staff were super nice and I wish them the very best in their future of whatever is in store and I am super sad that I only tried the place the day before it closed. I shall always remember the best Mexican food I have had in Manchester though.

The food was great the new Owner of IN Beach was there eating with his wife, Skyler took care of us…read moreand was awesome.

We went for a late lunch (about 1:30 p.m.) on a Saturday, so I wasn't expecting the place to be packed, but was certainly not expecting that we were the only ones there. We were browsing the menu and they have a Saturday and Sunday lunch menu for less than £9.00. They also have student specials. Everything on the menu looked really good, but I chose to go with the beef burrito. My friend went with the chicken fajitas. She also asked for sparkling water with lemon and the waitress had asked to double check that she said lemon, but when it was brought over it had a lime in it. At least we knew that the meal was going to be fresh... there was a lot of chopping and sizzling coming from the kitchen. My friend said that the chicken fajitas were good, but could've used a few more peppers rather than onions. My burrito looked lovely on the plate and I was so excited to see Pico de Gallo on the side of the plate. The pico was great, the burrito was really good as well. It was seasoned well, the tortilla soft (not crispy like a lot of other places), and I really liked the drizzle of sour cream and queso on the top of the burrito. The refried beans were good, but a little dry. And the rice... well I still haven't found a really good Mexican rice since I have been here. The rice was good, but tasted more like something you would get in an Indian/Middle Eastern restaurant. Overall I really liked the food. I would go back and I would recommend it to others.
