La Casita De Martin

Okay. Picture you find yourself in the small town of Grove, Oklahoma... You're craving mexican food... There are maybe a handful of options available, and you end up walking into what looks like a mix between a pub and a diner, with some colorful booths lining the wall and an extensive, colorful menu to match. It has daily specials and combos and everything from burritos to enchiladas to tacos, meats of your choice. The portions are huge. The service is attentive as the place isn't super big. You end up paying around $10-15 a person for a meal that could easily count as lunch and dinner combined. You're satisfied. Is it the best tasting food you've ever had? Probably not. But it's good. It scratched the itch when you were craving mexican food. I can vouch for the red and green wet burritos. They were quite tasty. I'd venture the other options on the menu are safe too.

For Tex-mex, this is my favorite in Grove! They advertise hot salsa, and it really is pretty spicy! I love that it's actually got some heat. My food came out super fast and piping hot and fresh. The chips and salsa are best in town. My server was quick and efficient. It's pretty small inside, but I had a nice little corner table to myself. I'll definitely be back to try more. I was told the tacos are great, and my chimichanga was perfect.

One of my favorite places to eat. Normally get the Carne Asada tacos because they never disappoint, but went with the chicken asada tacos this time. They were great as well. Love their salsa and the hot salsa that comes with the tacos. Also had the guac. And a blue margarita. Highly recommend!

We are in town and did a search for Mexican and this one came up with the best rating. Called in an order. They said 15-20 mins. I drive down and they had it ready. The cashier showed me the items to verify the order which was awesome. Ordered beef fajitas for 1 and 3 hard shelled shredded beef tacos. The came with rice and beans. The fajitas also had cheese, quac, pico, sour cream. I ordered a side of the hot salsa which was excellent. Hot but excellent. There was plenty of beef. I had 4 and still had enough for 3 more at least. The beef was flavored and cooked well. Cut nice and thin so it was easy to eat. The tacos were on large shells with plenty of beef as well and some tomato slices More than enough to eat. I walked in and was greeted promptly. Told them my name and another lady is the one tht verified and took my money. Very satisfied. The beans had a nice hint of cumin. I only did a 4 star as we did not eat there so can't vouch for the in house service but can't imagine it being bad. Check it out.

Happened to be in Grove Oklahoma around lunch time today and on the advice of locals visited LA Casita de Martin. Wowzer we wish this place was in Oklahoma city. This joint is better than 90% of the Mexican restaurants in the city.

It has been a few years since we had visited our favorite Mexican restaurant in Grove, La Casita de Martin. Well, the name has changed...It is now just "La Casita" I asked about the change and the waitress said that the owner had leased the business. It was now being operated by another restaurateur. It has always been the best in Mexican restaurant in Grove. I am sure that it still is. The menu looks like nothing has changed other than the prices. (Current menu is posted with this review date) We went for the "UNO." Consistently our favorite meal. One shredded beef and one chili verde enchilada with rice and beans. Of the two the pork chili verde was the prominent winner. The tender, tasty chunks of pork were fantastic.It has been so long since we have dined here I cannot honesty say I remember what the salsas and sauces tasted like. I know we remembered them as delicious. It could be my imagination, but they seemed a little different, as prepared by the new operators. A slight change in the seasoning was detected (or imagined). Still very good though. No change in the service, Excellent!

BUGS!!!! BUGS!! DO NOT EAT HERE!!I eat here a lot! Yesterday I was asked not to come back by the owner/host. She said I never want to pay for my food, so do not come back! I do NOT want to pay for my food when there is a bug in it! It has happened once before also. Yesterday I ate mine (and payed for it) it was my daughter's food that had the bug. The owner offered to remake it but my daughter was sick from seeing this on her food, as she had already been eating the "all you can eat tacos!" I enjoyed my lunch but the chicken did seem to have alot of grissel in it, but I said nothing about that! When I got my ticket she had put down an entire dinner we didn't even have!! I asked the server about it and she said she would tell the owner. I said. "Ok, thank you. She also forgot to take the dinner off that had the big in it." She said, ok. After I paid, and tipped, (when she didn't even give me my coins in change back) she told me not to come back! I told her I wanted my tip back! I said I'm not tipping and then getting barred. She said she had barred me 3 times. That is a lie! I told her she has cameras all in there!! Please show me one time I have been barred!! Not until yesterday! She asked why I keep coming back? I told her the food was good! And on most days it is! But I don't think I should have to pay for food with bugs in it! And walk into their bathroom and back hallway!! Smells like raw sewage!! Good day she told me after telling me she would call the police and charge me with trespassing!! I told her I wasn't leaving until I got my $6 tip back. The Food usually has good flavor but the meat is tough!! Eat at your own risk!! Look for bugs!! And for Gods sake, DO NOT COMPLAIN!! She DOES NOT like making it right, by refunding your bug infested meal!! My tip is to drive on down the road to Lupes! Much better food and service. I have attached receipt and video!

When my 11 year old grandson comes to visit, the first thing on his list of 'things to do' is get enchiladas at "Martin's Casita'. We always accommodate him because we love Martin's food as well. I don't bother with any other Mexican restaurants in Grove because they are not as good, but rather average. I especially like the shrimp gazpacho ('shrimp cocktail') in the summer...cold and refreshing, although everything on the menu is delicious. Great food, quick service, friendly staff and nice ambiance...what's not to like?

The food is always very good. My wife likes the fact that she can add modifications to her burritos and get it just the way she likes it. I like the good service and the ambiance is very nice too.

Great tasing fresh Mexican food. The chicken is the Chimichanga was delicious. The quacamole was fresh and tasted good. The young lady who was our server was quick to wait on our every need. My wife had the beef enchiladas and said it was great too. We eat a lot of Mexican food so we would know what Mexican food is good or not. I travel extensively for work and the experience here was superb. Btw, the AC wasn't blowing on my food . I detest that. The temperature in the restaurant was comfortable not cold.This is some of the best Mexican food I've had in this area.
