" Casa Machado is a great spot, but it was a bit underwhelming this last visit. While the margaritas were still top-notch and enjoyable, I experienced delays in service. The enchiladas I ordered were average, lacking the depth of flavor I remembered from past visits. I hope it's just a one-time issue as I've always had better meals here before. Nevertheless, the ambiance with the planes is still fantastic. " (*Curated Review*)

" Service was amazing during my last visit, but the food left something to be desired. I ordered the enchiladas, which were decent but not quite what I expected from a place boasting authenticity. The margaritas were delicious and refreshing. Overall, I'd give it another chance—especially for the friendly atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a perfect blend of Mexican cuisine and aviation! The planes flying by while we dined set a playful background for our substantial meals. Although my dish was slightly oversalted, I appreciated the quality and authenticity of the ingredients. I would recommend Casa Machado to anyone looking for both good food and entertainment. " (*Curated Review*)

" Casa Machado stands out with its unique location above an airport, creating such a fun atmosphere! The food was good, the salsa was fresh, but I expected a bit more from my dish. The prices were reasonable, and overall, it was a great dining experience thanks to the views and friendly service! " (*Curated Review*)

" An exceptional place to dine with family and friends! We celebrated my sister's birthday at Casa Machado, and it was nothing short of perfect. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The flavors were authentic, especially in the enchiladas which received unanimous praise. We also appreciated the spacious seating and beautiful views of the small airport. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience! Casa Machado is a must-visit if you're in San Diego. The food speaks for itself—the flavors are authentic and fresh. The chicken fajitas were sizzling and delicious, and the portions are so generous that we had leftovers to take home. We can’t wait to return for another family outing! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my experience at Casa Machado was good! The service was friendly, and the food had a nice authentic touch to it. The view from the dining area was beautiful as we watched the planes take off. I look forward to revisiting soon to try their dinner specials! " (*Curated Review*)
