I'd seen some terrible reviews of La Casita online but if being a person who writes online restaurant reviews teaches you anything, it's when other ones are not totally legit. So I ignored them and went anyway and I'm glad I did because it was a really delicious, good value meal with great friendly service.
Rich and I shared the choriqueso and the guacamole bowl to start. The choriqueso as you may be able to guess is a ton of chorizo with a ton of melted cheese. Of course this was bloody delicious. The guacamole was good too, I'm not sure what was achieved by it being in a tortilla bowl but it definite didn't detract from anything.
For mains I had tacos el pastor and Rich had fajitas with chicken and chorizo. The tacos were great - no weird hard shells here - and the filling very tasty. If I had any complaints here it would be that the meat had a slightly 'chalky' aftertaste, so possibly I'd try another taco filling on another visit. The hot sauce that comes with the tacos is pretty bloody hot, believe them when they say that. Rich's only complaint was that the fajitas came with a large amount of filling and only two small tortillas.
To drink I had a bottle of Sol and a very good, very strong margarita. Rich had a pint of lager and a rum and coke.
For two starters, two mains and four drinks we paid around £50 which I thought was pretty good. I'll definitely be back! I just hope it sticks around as businesses seem to come and go in this location (so go support them!).

Worth a visit just for the Chimichangas! I ordered these as a starter and they were 3 small-ish deep fried pulled pork burritos, and were absolutely delicious! A layer of lettuce sat on top with cream served with pico de gallo (Fresh Mexican salsa), and a spicy dipping sauce. The pulled pork was juicy and full of flavour, the outside was nice and crispy, and the spicy sauce was the perfect addition.
I made a major foodie error, and ordered the Cochinita Pibil burrito for my main, which is basically an upsacle non-fried version of the Chimichangas - in my defence: PULLED PORK! The Cochinita Pibil was slow cooked pulled-pork marinated in oranges, lime and traditional Mayan flavouring, and was spot on! I HAVE NO REGRETS
The restaurant is a quaint little place at the Chorlton end of Barlow Moor Road, with a large open window and terrace, which is great on a warm Summers' night like on the night I visited. The inside is filled with Mexican style décor, like an awesome painting depicted Cinco de Mayo celebrations.
The price was very reasonable and service was great, friendly and attentive, and I will definitely return to sample the guacamole, and bigger variety of their dishes.
Small and local Mexican restaurant. The staff were very friendly and it had a good atmosphere. The food was nice but fajitas and tortilla chips aren’t hugely different in a restaurant to when you have them at home. The chicken wings are nice and I’d recommend them.
After travelling to Mexico a few times and being completely immersed in the culture, food and music, La Casita certainly delivers a real level of authenticity. After having a number of their tacos it tasted just like being back there again. As an avid lover of mezcal I was very happy to see they had a good range of these, would definitely come back again!
Go with an appetite! The food is amazing and the portions are GENEROUS! The cocktails are excellent. Tiny place but doesn't feel cramped. And the staff are very friendly. Great place, great value.
The food here is always good. Tasty and reasonably priced. The service is excellent. We were seated outside under heat lamps. Complimentary blankets might be an idea as the weather gets cooler as it does get a bit nippy. Recommend the margaritas and mojitos.
The best Mexican food and drink outside of Mexico! If you like authentic Mexican food, you must go here! Incredible flavours and a great variety of dishes on the menu. The service is good, the decor is cute and quirky, it can get very busy as it’s only tiny inside but so worth the wait. Make sure you trust the server when she tells you the hot sauce is hot…! Amazing Micheladas!
Amazing food. They best hot sauces I've tastes (I'm a hot sauce fan) I had the Aztec Soup and the Pork burrito 🌯 high of which were beautiful. And I obviously washed then down with a fee Sol

AMAZING!
Have been looking for a Mexican restaurant for quite some time and La Casita is just the best! The food is just like in México, the service is amazing and the environment is nice! The prices might seem a little high, but the portions are big! Like a proper Latin meal! 10/10!
Another wow restaurant, great selection of Mexican food washed down with wonderful margaritas. The chicken wings are absolutely to die for, crispy savoury and mouthwatering with a selection of really hot dips. We love this restaurant when we are visiting Chilton and this is our second visit. The nachos are oozing with flavour and they’re great sharing starter.
Visited for a friends birthday in January and had great service. The food was delicious and well priced. Staff were very busy but still smiling. Will defiantly be back.
