This was a great find. Outside patio was a wonderful place to spend the evening. Food was a step above any Mexican food in the area. Attentive server and craft margaritas were great! Wonderful place hidden in a strip mall.

The outdoor seating area is great, as was our server Paige. Just a wonderful atmosphere. However, the menu is not as expansive as some other Mexican restaurants. We ordered the Family Feast. The chicken was delicious. Highly recommend. The churros were a little different...Read More

Wow. So impressed by the birria tacos here. It's a must have! The salsipurdes cocktail was a little more sour than I liked but the careso margarita was great! I would absolutely come here again.

Fantastic place. Clean modern atmosphere, not too big not too small. We started in the bar with chips, salsa, a house beer and a hibiscus mistress. All were fantastic with great service. The bartenders were surprisingly quick, knowledgeable and service oriented. We then moved to...Read More

I had such a great experience at this taco spot! The flavors were incredible—fresh ingredients, perfectly seasoned meats, and tortillas that tasted homemade. Each taco felt thoughtfully put together, and the variety on the menu made it easy to try something new. The staff was...Read More

This bar surprised me in the best way possible. From the outside it looks unassuming, but once you step in, it’s like entering a whole new world. The décor is warm and elegant, the lights are low, and there’s this subtle jazz music playing that...Read More

Casaro in Carlsbad has a great vibe and cool atmosphere. Went for lunch on a Tuesday — it was busy but the service was still great. Food came out faster than expected and everything was really good. Left full and happy. Will definitely be back

This place is a gem in Carlsbad! Great food, great service and nice decor and patio. It's a little overpriced, but on par with other Carlsbad eateries. Their chips and salsa are so good, margaritas are on point!
