Casita

Excellent Oaxacan cuisine served here. Highly recommend the Mole Negro with its depth of flavours and spice. The Tlayuda is gigantic and filled with delicious variety of ingredients. Great Mezcals are on the drinks menu. Do start with their tasty guacamole & chips. You can thank me later. Enjoy!

Made reservations for me & my husband to celebrate my 50th birthday at Casita on Sunday 8/31. The staff was warm, welcoming & attentive. They had placed a postcard on our table with a "Happy Birthday, ♡ Casita" written on it, and brought us a few churros with chocolate dipping sauce & a candle on it towards the end of our meal. Margaritas were solid, and the street corn gnocchi was one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life! Would gladly make the 2 hour drive out there to dine again, hopefully sooner rather than later!

I went with my family, and we had a great experience! We has a remarkable capacity to eat food, so we ordered a lot lol. To drink, I got the Auga Fresca which was guava, some simple syrup, water and lime. It was perfectly refreshing for a hot day! We got a lot of dishes and shared, but the stand out dish of the night was definitely the Street Corn Gnocchi. It was sooooo soft and pillowy, and is so comforting and cheesy and soft. The tacos, which we got with a side of rice and beans, were classic and delicious. (can't go wrong with rice and beans!) The yucca fries were suuper salty and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The dip is also very good! The other dishes in the pictures were also good, but to me the ones I listed were very stand out. Dessert was also very good, we got t

The food here is absolutely spectacular! We had a hard time choosing, in the best way. Every dish was outstanding. The mushroom empanada with pistachio mole was mind bending good, with a perfectly flaky crunchy shell made from their hose pressed masa. I don’t think you can go wrong with any choice here!

We had an amazing time at Casita. The food was genuinely mind blowing and holds its own against some Michelin starred experiences we’ve had. Staff was delightful and the restaurant setting is cute and authentic to the cuisine, without being performative and set-like. I expected a nice post museum date but got so much more and we will definitely be making the 90 min trip again to come back.
