Barbacoa taco. Good flavor, not that bold or spicy though, and can see grease already pooling, squeezing it out there was a lot.

This place serves really good tacos! I got the buttermilk fried chicken taco and the loaded patatas bravas and they were both great. Even though I find the patatas slightly too salty for my taste. The restaurants is lively during dinner hours and has both indoor and outdoor seatings. The staff were friendly and service was quick. Value: 7.5/10 Food: 8/10 Service: 8/10 Experience: 8/10

Nachos. This is the place, this is what to eat. A skillet full of satisfying crunch and cheese, made sure to add the guacamole. Enough to share with a friend for dinner. Thank me later.

The service, as one reviewer said, fast and friendly.The food though is just meh. The food looks great, but the flavors just aren't bold enough for me. There is no spiciness either in anything I had. I was surprised as well to get a fish taco and no lime wedge with it, I had to ask for one and they just took the limes they garnish on the drinks. The waiter actually put it on an empty cup, the heck, and told me "thats how they serve the limes". The beef barbacoa taco was served too with a lot of grease. I get beef barbacoa has natural grease, but cmon I squeezed quite a pool of it out (photos blurry, but that pool in the bowl). Decent flavor, but again, not bold or spicy.If I were to take someone to a bar and food combo place, then would go here. But just for food, there's other places.

Everything was amazing. The nachos seemed overpriced, but they really weren't, as they were perfectly layered with tons of premium cheeses. The place handled my friend's allergies well, double-checking the recipes with the kitchen and recommending what needed to be left off. Only slight gripe was that there is overhead music (appropriate volume, top-40-ish stuff) but the kitchen staff was listening to different music part of the time we were there, which was distracting and annoying.

Happen to be in the area and despite the Yelp reviews we decided to give it a try anyways. Immediately regretted when we ordered chips and guac, cold chips and a guac that tasted like someone didn't try or simply don't know how to make. Ordered individual tacos, they tasted like a kitchen experiment, ingredients put together that taste wise didn't make much sense, no savory anything. Total disappointment and waste of money. Find another restaurant down the street or get chipotle who has better tasting food.

Some really creative taco fillings! I've been here twice now and had the brussels spouts, fried chicken, fish and shrimp tacos. All are super delicious, and I especially love their tortillas, they are thick and taste homemade. They also have a good selection of mock tails, the spicy one is my favorite

We have been coming to Casa Verde for years now. I love this restaurant! On our most recent visit, we started with fresh guacamole and chips. After, we had the carnitas tacos which are slow-roasted pork shoulder, queso sauce, salsa verde, radish, onion, pickled jalapeno, pepitas, and crema. I also had the beef barbacoa taco with chimichurri, queso fresco, and crispy shallots, and the fried brussel sprout tacos with pomegranate, crema, and salsa verde. My partner had the fried chicken torta which is a buttermilk-brined fried chicken sandwich and almond mole aioli, chipotle aioli, homemade bread, and butter pickles. The cocktail menu at Casa Verde is great! We had two types of the Casa Margarita including the mango-guava and classic cocktails. We also had the Mango #5 Cocktail which has tequila, mango-habanero, basil, lime, and serrano, topped with topo chico. All were great and fresh!The vibes at Casa Verde are always top-notch, making it the perfect spot for a lively night out. So, if you're looking for great service, mouthwatering food, and a killer atmosphere, this place has got it all.

Been there twice and each time it exceeds expectations. The tacos are so fresh its nuts! The chips and queso and guac are insane. Beer selection top shelf. They have soccer on the large screen TV. Service was fast and polite. Don't know what other peeps issues are with this place but I love it. Enjoy!

DO NOT GO IF YOU ARE BLACK OR BROWN!On 5/08/21, I spent $137.65 at this restaurant and was completely dissatisfied!Where do I begin? The wait staff, the lack of allergy-free options, or the pure human decency? Let's start with the wait staff on this day! They were short, condescending, and outright disrespectful. On my receipt, Bar B was assigned to our table. PLEASE find out who this is and STAY AWAY. He is aweful and not a very nice person. Next: menuOn the day in question, there were ONLY things on the menu that I was allergic to, and based on this sub-par restaurant, there wasn't much I could do about it! THEY DID NOT CARE!! Finally: They don't care about the thoughtful engagement of people! I am from DC and expect a certain level of humanity! Deep-rooted intolerance and lack of care for WOKE individuals must be the reason for the deplorable encounter. I am a fair person, and what I experienced here left scars! I PAID THE BILL FOR MY ENTIRE PARTY. I didn't even eat here because they could not accommodate me. They need to know people can pay, despite the bigotry that is shown.

This is basically a bar that sells Mexican finger food. The place was dimly lit. I suppose it saves on the electricity. I sat at the bar and ordered a fish sandwich of which I had trouble finding the fish. The bartender could not have cared less that I was there. Not even a hello. He ignored me the whole time. I guess it was because I was not drinking. For the size of the portions, I found it to be rather pricey. In general, I was disappointed with Casa Verde. From the name I would have thought it was a Mexican restaurant rather then just a bar with a kitchen
