Casa
I was eagerly waiting for Casa to open. Once it opened my friend and I had a girls day out and decided to make it an adventure. It's a typical Mexican style restaurant. Looking at the menu you have some basic foods you would find in a Mexican restaurant, fajitas and such but then there is the other things mixed in that make it more interesting.... I asked the waitress what was the big seller that everyone liked, she suggested Bulgogi Enchilada (No sampling of meats or marinades before ordering)....These two items are great on their own but what happens when you put them together? The waitress assured me this was a popular item, and it was covered in cheese, what could go wrong?! While waiting on our food I asked if we got chips and salsa. This is a typical snacking item in a Mexican restaurant, we were told they don't come out until after we order. No biggy. When the chips came out snack size was exactly what they give you. Then it gets interesting.... On top of the small snack size of chips also comes the miso soup and salad bar. On the salad bar is also where you find your own salsa. They offer many different options in salsa on this so called salad bar. The salad bar however; consist of iceberg lettuce, black olives, cheese and dressing (Ranch or ginger). Once I made my typical Asian salad, and ate my miso soup, (boy they really meant Mexican Asian fusion with this place!) our Bulgogi Enchilada was coming out. it was covered in cheese and looked fantastic! The basic enchilada recipe is there, the enchilada sauce, cheese and flour tortilla...then the inside is all Asian. The bulgogi is a sweet Korean BBQ whish is odd when mixed with Mexican spices. your taste buds are almost confused with this combination of flavors. It is a meal that at first you start eating it, it is good....well, ok; but then half way through your brain and stomach catch up with your taste buds and the combination of flavors begin not agreeing at all.
I would recommend this place for the really adventurous people that are only looking to say, yeah I have ate there before. other than that not worth the money.
Miso soup, snack size chips and a variety of salsas from the salad bar.
