" Delicious Mexican cuisine in a laid-back atmosphere! The owner, Hugo, is a delight to talk to, and his passion for the food really comes through. I ordered the chicken enchiladas, and they were served fresh and hot. The mezcal selection is impressive as well. While a little on the pricier side, the experience and taste are worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Casa Borrega is a cozy spot with an interesting menu. The tacos were decent, but not what I expected in terms of authenticity. On the bright side, the service was excellent! The environment was lively, especially with the music. Some dishes were worth it, while others fell flat for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Casa Borrega was simply amazing! The ambience is lively and full of colorful decorations that transport you to Mexico. I had the enchiladas and they were packed with flavor—definitely authentic! The mezcal cocktails are top-notch, crafted with care. The staff was incredibly warm and greeted us with smiles. I’ll be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Casa Borrega has a wonderful vibe and great ambience. I love the idea behind serves authentic Mexican dishes, but I must say I was a bit disappointed with my meal. I ordered nachos and they were just okay—nothing special. However, the margaritas were fantastic! The staff made me feel at home, which is always a plus. I’d give it another try and taste something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Casa Borrega and it was quite the experience! The décor is a mix of NOLA and Mexico, creating a unique and inviting environment. The food was generally good with great flavors, but I found my beef taco to be slightly overcooked. The drinks were impressive, particularly the margaritas. Overall a nice experience, but there's room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an unforgettable experience at Casa Borrega! We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. The decor is beautiful, with a lot of character and charm. The food was top-notch! I had the mole enchiladas and they were divine! The service was prompt, and our server was attentive. I highly recommend for anyone seeking a true Mexican dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)
