Same as the Sheffield location, they start with free chips and salsa (cheese dip or cheese/bean dip extra, spring for larger bowl}. Variety of drinks, including alcohol. Updated menus, including kids'. The house special (Casa Mexicana Especial) seems pricey to some, until they see it; the menu says it feeds one, but it feeds at least two people (all the 'sides' needed to fix variety of fajita/taco type items on one platter like sour cream, rice, guacamole and so on, with the other platter coming out steaming hot loaded with various meats such as ribs, chicken, charizo, shrimp, beef and grilled peppers & onions, etc.). If you have to have a take home box, it's just as good later. They accept cash, and credit cards (including debit) but not checks anymore. They have locations in Muscle Shoals and in Sheffield as well.

All the chips and salsa you can eat (cheese dip extra, but worth it; for the price, pop for the bigger one, though). Depending on what's going on, on which side of the river, this one can be less crowded but not always. the house special is well worth the cost (and it really does feed at least 2, even though it says 1). The prices are quite reasonable, and the cooks authentic mexicans (which usually means the food is authentic, remembering that some restaurants add things like chicken fingers because of the kids; and they do have a kids menu at least). They also serve alcohol, except on Sundays {though may have changed with the new alcohol sales laws recently}. I like the one across the river better, but that doesn't mean this one is bad. Avg. entree price listed doesn't count the over 10 for the Casa Especial that I get, nor does that price include drinks, tip, cheese sauce, etc.

Variety of drinks, including the alcohol-type; a lot of people rave over the Margaritas and the various drink specials. They have a kids' menu, and a lot of different items on their menu overall.

If you have to have a take home box, it's just as good later. They accept cash, checks, and credit cards (including debit) last time I was in there. I don't like it quite as much as the one across the river, for various reasons, but it may be more to the 'at ... more

Good Mexican food. It tends to be greasy but the cheese sauce is great. Great place to eat with a group of friends.

I think that casa mexicana is by far the best mexican restaurant in northwest alabama. Although, the atmosphere might be slightly better at La Hacienda, the food, service and margaritas at Casa are unmatched. Pay a little extra for the gold margarita and you won't regret it!

Florence doesn't have any good Mexican restaurants. You have to dive to Huntsville (60 miles away) for GREAT Mexican food. The restaurant is called "Rosie's" and is in the Home Depot shopping center on University dr. The only thing Casa Mexicana Restaurant has going for them is the rice. (GREAT Rice)

I like this casa, but the one in muscle shoals is better. The margaritas at this one are average.
