Wonderful Food and Really Friendly Service

Review on the Mexican food restaurant La Casita Gastown by SistaGirl2010

We were just walking by this restaurant and decided to call in. We were warmly greeted and shown to a table. We were a small group so were seated upstairs. I was pleased to see that larger groups were accommodated down stairs. The service was prompt and friendly. Our attendant was able to explain different menu items to us and we were very pleased with our meals. The flavours were great and the portion sizes were generous.

Review on La Casita Gastown by heygervais

My colleague and I were looking for a place to eat in Gastown and decided to try this place after walking around the area for awhile on a rainy Sunday evening.

The initial tacos were very light and the sauces that came with them had a bit of heat, but not so much to make you uncomfortable. For dinner I had the Chicken Fajitas. Delicious! The chicken was well shredded and flavored for building my fajitas. The fixings were great. I had more than enough food and I enjoyed the meal very much. For dessert, I had the special cake, Pastel de Tres Leches. Nice and light, not too filling. All in all I was very pleased and pleasantly surprised at the bill, which I thought was quite reasonable for what we had and the location.

This is not fast food or Tex-Mex so if you are looking for a cheap version of Mexican food, this is not the place to go. You come here to eat well prepared Mexican food in the pleasant atmosphere of downtown Vancouver. I would recommend a meal there if you are from out of town and looking for a good meal in Gastown.

Stopped in pretty late and had a table downstairs. Very good food at a reasonable price. I had a bean tostada and my husband had the tortilla soup. Soup was to die for. If the trip would have been longer we would have gone back!

We had a great casual night out here when visiting for a conference. The margaritas on the rocks were better than the slushy kind. The highlight of the meal was the Super Tortilla soup and Black bean soup. Both were hot and flavourful. I had the chicken fajitas and for the first time ever, was able to finish them. The tortilla shells were perfect little wrappers for the tasty fillings. My husband had the burritos but had to take half with us. The soup was very filling. The atmosphere is casual, the staff were friendly and the food was hot and fresh, with lots of great Mexican flavours. I'd go back for the soup alone.

I dropped in to La Casita the other night for dinner while in Vancouver (it's been a couple of years and they've finished the Woodwards mega-complex across the street since then).

The place was pretty full (even diners downstairs) which is an improvement for the owners I'm sure.

One of the best restaurants we've visited in the city. The quality of the food is superb, well-prepared as well. If you love Mexican food, this is the place in town to go to.

Review on La Casita Gastown by Dave W

My wife and I had an early dinner there on a Saturday afternoon/evening. The service was great and the food was some of the best Mexican I have had yet in Vancouver. The Chorizo Shrimp Tacos were superb as an appetizer. My wife ordered the Chili Releno and enjoyed it very much. I had a combo plate with Chimichanga and Chorizo Taco. The refried beans were excellent along with the Spanish rice. Drink prices were reasonable. I had a Churro for dessert and it was just like I remembered from a street vendor when in Mexico a year or two ago. I highly recommend La Casita and will definitely be going back soon.
