Casita Linda Mexican Restaurant

While on this side of town, I dropped in on a popular spot. Glad I did.The customers and staff are all super friendly and helpful to each other. When I got there at noon the place was busy with the lunchtime crowd. I did find a small table and my drink order was taken along with them placing a chips and salsa in front of me.I ordered the lunch special for $8.95. On Thursdays that's the Tacos al Carbon, your choice of chicken or beef. I chose the beef, and the special comes with s soup, tortilla or vegetable. The taco plate comes with two tacos, flour tortillas, pico, guacamole, rice and beans. It's a lot. Then after you finished all that the lunch special also comes with a sopapilla!I also tried their horchata. They had limonada, Jamaica, and horchata. Their horchata was prettgood. It comes I'm a big cup, it's not watered down and it was creamy and refreshing.The whole experience was very good I would return immediately. Casita Linda knows their tacos.

Cute little place with great food. Plate was very generous. So much food. All 3 items, as well as the beans and rice were delicious. The restaurant is a little on the older side but still clean. The service was great, but a little slow. No fault of the waitress, she was amazing.

I'd visit this place again just for the staff and how friendly they were. Food comes out super fresh and fast. The only reason I have a 4 instead of a 5 is because it could stand to have a little cleaning refresh. But if you want fast super friendly service, eat here

This is a fixture of the El Paso East side that has been opened for several decades. Their food is your traditional Mexican food operated by the same Terrazas family since their opening back in the 1980s. They offer lunch specials on Monday and Wednesday at $9.95 - all you can eat Mexican plate. It seems that this place is somewhat stuck in time and that you are going back to history with a very Homy family feeling. So there is definitely an element of history in this cantina. They have been known for their red sauce but it appears that they changed the recipe recently. My friend John W. was not happy about it. The service is really good they addressed our issue.

Very friendly service. Pricing is fair. However, coming from a typical Mexican family who gathers around food, I would have expected more. We ordered the Casita Linda Especial, burrito, and some shredded beef tacos on the side. The shredded beef tacos,enchilada, and sopapillas were good. But the meat in the rest of the meal was dry, even in the tamal. Food wasn't bad. It just wasn't great.

sure hope some changes are coming soon,, last two time we stopped by we were disappointed,,, Slow service and something wrong with the food as it was not what we grew up with... Please bring back the great service and teast...

Que linda! I enjoy coming here for a few particular things... a very GENEROUS bowl of caldo and you just can't beat their complimentary sopapillas! To be completely honest, this wasn't my favorite Mexican spot at the beginning. I admit that I'm a sucker for margaritas and unfortunately they don't have the license to serve even beer. So fine, since it would just be better for my liver.. win! But then I didn't realize their huevos rancheros was going to have these HUGE chunks of green chiles in their sauce. In their defense, it was explained that strips would be in their sauce on the menu, but they were a bit excessive. Just another cut of them would have made a difference. Needless to say I wasn't a fan at first. But then later on, I also tried their shrimp combo fajitas during the summer which rocked! Very generous amount of food for a great price! Everything was delicious as well.I was disappointed at first that there was no chilaquilles as an option on their menu. So I opted to get an appetizer of nachos with beans and cheese and would add salsa to satisfy my craving. But things got better again with their bowl of Caldo de Res. I saw that the price for their entree of it was $5.95 with rice and tortillas, so that led me to believe that it was going to be a more modest size bowl which is fine for the price. But then my order came and it was a HUGE bowl! I was blown away! The nachos were ok at best since it wasn't so good once the cheese got cold. But once those sopapillas came around, all was well overall.

Amazing sopapillas, tortilla soup and my favorite fajitas! My family has been dining at Casita Linda's for years!They had a humongous Oscar but he has gone to fish heaven!

I love the flat or rolled enchiladas. I requested a sunny side egg on top of the enchiladas. Then I love adding a bowl of guacamole before the meal and sopapillas afterwards. Yummy

They don't honor Yelp discounts that he said he changed over a month ago. Yeah they could've changed it since it's been over a month. Last time I come to this place Our waitress was horrible and all the other employees made it worth coming here. They did everything for her. Food was 5 stars but with checking out and not being able to just the 10% discount because the owner changed it over a month ago...well if that was the case then it's been a month update it with YelpThe reason we came!!!! Bye place that would have been frequented a few times a week!
