Havent´t been there - or in US - since 66´, 68´, 70´ and 75´/76´! Love the place and the food, can´t find anything like this in Sweden! But we have the meny still and when the longing comes over us, we look in it and then I try to make som of the dishes. Sometimes successful, sometimes not..... But I learned to make the tasteful Casa Escobar sauce by our friendly and nice waiter Miquel so I manage! LOVE THE PLACE - wish we where there!<3
Relaxed Vibe and Always Delicious! – I Love Casa Escobar. The feel of the place is almost like your favorite diner. Cozy and always welcoming. The mexican decor/fun lights are charming and the random metal chairs give a mom & pop feel to the place. It is so unassuming & the perfect place to go if you want good mexican food without a pretentious or rowdy crowd. Also, the man who comes and sings occasionally is great & so sweet! He's talented, and not too loud where I can't have a conversation. Most importantly the food is rea... read more
Best Spinach Enchiladas Ever! – The margaritas are exceptional and the spinach enchiladas will make you hurt yourself. Traditional Mexican cooking at its best!
Casa Manana Hangover – OK the review below must be for somewhere else, there is NO view... in fact there are no windows.. maybe he was in the Malibe Casa Escobar - perhaps he is druinkypoo - they probly make equally strong drinks at each of the Casa Escobars. Unless by view he means people getting schnockered? Anyway, in Santa Monica, you'll find that the food is greasy but yummy, the drinks are strong, and the service is wonderful, especially if you're a regular - they'll call you by name. The margeritas are efficient, and ... read more
For drinks fine; for food think again. – If it weren't for the location and drinks, I think this place would be out of business. Now with that said, here are the reasons why. I eat out 3-4 times a week at a variety of restaurants. I have never had anything more than drinks here prior to this review. The service was abysmally slow and was not due to the place being busy. The waiter was completely uninterested, but that wasn't a problem for us at all. It was that he would take forever to come back and give us any attention for... read more
Best Mexican food this side of the 405 freeway – I've been coming to Casa Escobar Santa Monica for years, and I have never been disappointed! The margaritas are definately NOT for light-weights so consider yourselves warned. The food portions are generous and delicious. My favorite thing to order is the chile relleno - serrano chiles stuffed with cheese, covered in batter and fried to perfection. I've never experienced a more delicious chile relleno than the one served at Casa Escobar on Wilshire (not even in Mexico!!!); it'... read more
the worst mexican food I've ever had – A friend of ours decided to try this restaurant because of its rating on City search ...well, big mistake on that one. We were a table of 6 and every single person had terrible food. It started with the salsa and chips. The worst salsa ever...it looked and tasted like tomatoe sauce from a can with italian seasoning in it. The meals were expensive but they have a deal for $13 where you get a salad or soup, dish, coffee. Well, the salad is 100% iceberg which has been waiting in a water ba... read more
Family-owned SoCal mini-chain serves up traditional Mexican fare and margaritas. – In Short A lively crowd of after-work regulars, area shoppers and laid-back beachgoers kick back in a festive but gothic-looking dining room, or in the '70s style piano bar a la "Three's Company's" Reagle Beagle. Patrons fill up on enchiladas stuffed with spinach, beef, chicken or goat cheese, seafood paellas, cheesy quesadillas and house-specialty burritos.
Never fails to be amazing! – I LOVE Casa Escobar. As you can see from the previous reviews, it's a place that has many "regulars." The reason? Or should I say reasons.... the service, the food, the margaritas, the ambiance. All the most important things, right? From the minute you walk in, the host (I think he might be the owner) is SO nice and well-mannered, especially when he remembers you from before. Yes, it's pretty dark, but it's kind of a cool old-school feeling. If it's not too busy, request a booth- they're really b... read more
