Casita Mexicana Südstadt in Köln

We always feel very comfortable there. The food and drinks are great.

The food was delicious, and the service was quick and friendly. The furniture and restrooms could be improved.

I love the vibe, the food was delicious, and I absolutely recommend drinking a Michelada.

Atmosphere: Good atmosphere and well-decorated. Service: Friendly service. Food: Bland and lifeless presentation. Had a burrito. Filled only with chicken and lettuce. Nothing else. A bit disappointing.

Everything was great and we would love to come back

Cool restaurant. Great atmosphere there. But also very loud, but fits the concept. My meal was very tasty, I will definitely come back and try more.

Yesterday we had lunch at this place and everything was excellent: very delicious food and drinks, excellent atmosphere and excellent service from Maria. It is a 100% recommended place.

Super recommended! The food was delicious and Maria's attention was impeccable, we will definitely return!

Worst Mexican Restaurant in Cologne. Highly overpriced. Tiny portions. Taste is mid…seriously. Spend your money elsewhere.

I like this place very much. Authentic cuisine, music and ambience.

Unfortunately not recommended. Service force was only on the cell phone. The addition of “without onions” meant leaving out the entire salad, which is a no-go at these prices

Reservation was confirmed, then spontaneously only sold outside the house 1 hour in advance. Unfriendly lady at reception.

Nicely decorated, good selection of delicious food. Unfortunately a bit expensive.

Very friendly staff and the food is amazing!

Not recommended! First we waited 20-30 minutes until we could order something to drink. The cocktail was filled to the brim with ice cubes, so the cocktail was gone in 3 sips. The burrito was way too cheesy and the chicken was really dry and not tasty! The 4 tacos were the size of the bottom of a cup, so really small, my partner couldn't get enough of them. When we wanted to pay, the waitress preferred to go into the kitchen to chat and when we thought she was coming after 20 minutes, she finally went to the neighboring table, which was a group of at least 10 people. Overall, the service was very unfriendly, you weren't asked once if you wanted something to drink and if everything was OK. I would never go there again!!!

Wir waren schon zum zweiten mal hier und das Essen ist sehr authentisch und lecker. Vorweg haben wir uns zu viert die großen Nachos mit Rindfleisch und Käse geteilt und dann hatten wir entweder Burito oder Quesadilla. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall noch mal wieder. 👍🏼😋

The best Quesadillas, Tacos and Burritos I had in Europe. Both vegetarian and meat options were amazing. We didn't plan to eat Mexican in Cologne, but ended eating three times in Casita. Just perfect.

Super cute shop. The service is nice, but not professionals. You are still with the starter and the waitress wants to put the main courses on the table and doesn't understand at all when you suggest that you are currently still with the starter, which is actually easy to see. Had vegan tacos. The soy mince was really bad. For starters, nachos with cheese and beans, for €18? There are chips sprinkled with cheese...you'll be amazed at the prices. The three of us had two starters and one main course each, plus two Fritz sodas and two beers. The bill was EUR 104.00. Unfortunately it's far too expensive for what's on offer, even if the shop is really cutely decorated.

Service was nice, ambience was okay too. The food was tasty and seemed fresh enough, but the portions were far too small. My husband was still hungry after his bowl and I was still hungry after two quesadillas. The “hungry” reviews in front of me should probably just order more food 😄 I find it absolutely impossible for the price. The presentation was also rather so-so. You can easily serve a side salad on a plate and crumble nachos over it. Definitely gives it a little more love and food ;) if I lived nearby, unfortunately I wouldn't eat here anymore unless there were offers or larger portions.

This visit was once again a blast. Very nice and courteous staff even at a late hour. We'd love to come back.. 🥰👍🖖✌️🫶

I can only describe this restaurant as overpriced. I ordered the asada tacos and when they came the portion was extremely small. As an adult, it's hard to get full here without ordering two main courses. I am very disappointed, my visit was a complete waste of money…

Lifestyle, simple but very suitable furnishings. Very friendly staff. Food was fresh, hot and came quickly. Very tight seating, very crowded when it's full. If you want to have a quiet meal for two and/or want to talk about topics that are more private, this is not the right place (completely personal opinion).

Food relatively authentic, but of good quality!

Been there three times, great....!

The three of us were here for me, the best address for Mexicans in Cologne where the price-performance ratio is right. Here you can meet everything in the audience, from fine to normal. It is even possible to pick up your order in advance, but parking is a bit difficult. It is advisable to look for parking spaces in the surrounding area. The service and the food are very good. The service is very friendly and helpful. I felt a bit transported to the typical alleys of Mexico. A really great experience. We had three main courses and a large appetizer nacho plate, which is a must in this restaurant and therefore very tasty!!! Plus five classic cocktails and a cola. It was actually a bit too much for the three of us. Next time maybe in starter plates for three plus three small dishes. All in all, a successful product and absolutely great value for money. We will come back and it won't be the last time there.

Bad, loud and expensive. We had dinner with a group and everyone was disappointed. The prices are cleverly split. The bowl salad for 16.90 and then beef ectra for 2 euros. That's 18.90 for a measly salad with carrot slices and radishes. No sauce, not dressed. And then the beef strips completely cooked with mushy vegetables. That was loveless and really bad. The noise level is so great that it is hardly possible to hold a conversation at the table. We don't need that again.

Das war sehr enttäuschend. Wir haben mehrere Gerichte probiert und die einhellige Meinung war, dass es sich nicht gelohnt hat. Geschickt es es natürlich, die Preise zu splitten. Die bowl Salat für 16,90 Euro und die Streifen Rindfleisch dann für 2 Euro extra. Macht 18,90 Euro für einen mickrigen Salat mit rohen Möhren- und Radieschenstreifen ohne jede Sauce. Dazu dann die Rindfleischstreifen völlig durchgebraten mit matschigem Gemüse. Nein Danke, nie wieder! Und das in einer Geräuschkulisse in der ein Gespräch am Tisch kaum möglich war.

We have now been to Casita Mexicana twice with the family and are thrilled every time! The food is simply incredibly delicious and always impresses us with authentic flavors of Mexican and South American cuisine. The variety of dishes is great and every taste is catered for - from spicy to mild, there is always something special. You can tell how much love and care goes into every dish. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and we feel completely at home there. Thank you for the great culinary experiences – we’ll definitely be happy to come back again and again!

Very tasty and very friendly service. It doesn't get any better. We'd love to come back👌

tasty, quick, pleasant. Gladly again! Thank you very much :)

Menu lots of different salsa to try.

It was a tasty meal, my girlfriend also found it very tasty. We'll definitely come by again.

I ordered a vegan burrito. I assumed that because I said vegan, they wouldn't put any cheese in it. Apparently all burritos are filled with cheese, even if you order the vegan filling. The burrito arrived. I asked if there was an option to change the burrito because there was cheese in it. It said that you could scrape the cheese out of this burrito or that I could order a new burrito and that you could leave the cheese out this time. Of course I would have had to pay for both burritos, including the one I didn't touch. Of course it's not a given that I'll get a new burrito, but then please don't say next to the vegan filling that you can get the filling in a burrito. While my friends ate at the table, I had to have my food packed up so I could give it to the homeless outside. It's not a given that my food will be changed, but I once had a job in the catering industry and I know that it wouldn't have cost me to change my burrito and that it would take more time to give me the cheese than to bring me a new burrito with the finished vegetable mixture. We also regularly took back plates in the restaurant where I worked if, for example, someone overlooked the fact that they had ordered something with nuts (despite an allergy). There was always a new plate free of charge. Any other restaurant would have brought me a new burrito. Of course I paid the full price, left hungry and I and my friends will never go to the restaurant again. After six years of eating vegan, this has never happened to me.

Friendly service and they can prepare certain dishes gluten-free.

I recently went to this restaurant and I have to say it was simply fantastic! The tacos we had were honestly the best I've ever tasted. Everything was incredibly fresh and tasted perfectly. The service was also outstanding, the staff were incredibly kind, accommodating and really took their time to make sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was also very pleasant. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially for anyone who wants to enjoy really tasty, fresh tacos!

All super tasty and lots of variations, but still a clear menu, highly recommended. Will definitely come back. A ⭐️ deduction because it's not exactly cheap.

Great place and great food! The day we went they only had two people working there so the service was a bit slow BUT they brought out super yummy food and great drinks!! Recommended the salsa appetizer!!

We were there on Saturday to have lunch. The food was very good and the children and I enjoyed it very much. The service was courteous and competent. We also really liked the ambience. We'll definitely come by again. A happy and healthy New Year to the Casita Mexicana team.

*Service prompt and super nice *Food at its best *Prices reasonable So what? Always my pleasure:)

It was so delicious! Really enjoyed our dinner and the service was excellent! Can't wait to go again!

In winter, when the outside temperature is 0 degrees, the ice-cold air in the front area draws from the outside door to the legs and feet. No heat curtain or other cold barrier. Staff nice and hardworking. Waited 40 minutes for the food without any prior information. Food very tasty and fresh.

Mexican with a nice atmosphere and really tasty food. The dishes are nice and spicy with a 🌶️. Recommended, I'll be back.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An absolute highlight among Mexican restaurants! We were completely impressed by the Casita Mexicana. The food is not only authentically prepared, but also a real feast for the taste buds. What is particularly impressive is the extremely friendly and attentive service, which immediately makes you feel welcome. The rustic ambience takes you straight to a cozy Mexican tavern - very atmospheric and appropriate. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, just right for a relaxed evening with delicious food. If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine in a charming ambience, this is the place for you. A restaurant that you can definitely recommend! We'd love to come back.

Food tastes great! The ready-made burrito a la Diabla, for example, is super tasty and highly recommended. The mini quesadillas are perfect as an appetizer or for children

It is a very cozy place, the staff is very friendly, they make you feel at home.

A warm and warm welcome. An inviting ambience that is not directly reminiscent of Tex-Mex cuisine. Simple and colorful. Friendly and pleasant service. One look at the menu is enough to see that it definitely has a more authentic feel than a Mexican restaurant with Americanized influences. We allowed ourselves Aguas de Jamaica to drink. A cool refreshment with a strong note of hibiscus. I personally really liked it. I didn't know until now. Incredibly refreshing. Reminded me a little of the compote known in Eastern Europe. Let's get to the appetizer. Nachos Tres Quesos was very pleasant in taste and texture and was properly loaded with the toppings. Very interesting combination. Also a generous portion. For the main course we ordered Burrito La Diabla and a custom-made burrito with Rajas con queso. Both very tasty. In my opinion, the sauces were quite authentic and nice and spicy. Especially the Chipotle. It definitely tasted natural and not artificial. The salsa verde wasn't bad either. I doubt whether these sauces are actually homemade, but I reserve my judgment. The burritos were rather long and narrow. I was basically expecting a slightly shorter and thicker burrito, like I knew from various Mexican street food videos. Then I have to wait some more for such an experience. Of course it didn't devalue the food in any way. Will definitely come back more often. I would also like to try out the branch in the Belgian Quarter. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Food was very tasty, the mix plate is a brilliant idea to be able to try as much as possible at the same time. The staff was friendly and generally very attentive. Although the restaurant is harmoniously furnished, the table wobbled, the chairs and legroom were far too small for me and the toilet was unfortunately not particularly clean and almost seemed run down. But since it's mainly about the food and service: 4/5 stars.

Went here for lunch after a trade fair. Appetizer platter and a burrito each was more than enough; The rest was simply packed up and taken away.

Einfach gut. Mehr gibt's nicht zu sagen. Weil ich aber hundert Zeichen nutzen muss, sage ich es gerne nochmal: es war fantastisch!

Authentische Atmosphäre, sehr lecker, aufmerksame Bedienung. Empfehlenswert . Wir feiern immer die Geburtstage dort. Es schmeckt allen von jung bis alt. Man fühlt sich dort wie in Mexico, trotz jedem Wetter draußen. Tolle Lage mitten in der Südstadt!

Super tasty. Price performance is right Service attentive and very friendly

Very tasty but if you want it spicy you have to order the habanero sauce ;)

Una gran vibra y atmósfera donde se crea el verdadero ambiente mexicano. Nos encantó la comida y las bebidas. Cuando las horas se convierten en minutos sabes que estás en el buen momento. 🥑🌮🫔🇲🇽

Super tasty! And very friendly service despite the restaurant being fully booked!

Honest food, not drowned in sauce. Good selection and the prices are also acceptable.

I ordered a burrito with guacamole. The menu said €1 extra for the guacamole. In the end I paid an incredible €2.50 extra without being made aware that it had become more expensive. When I pointed this out to the waitress, she just shrugged her shoulders, unfortunately a bit unhappy. In addition, the portion wasn't really big, which meant I was still a little hungry after eating 🙄.

On Saturday we had dinner. Being a large group of 20 people, we made a reservation. The best way is to do it through the web. Although it takes a few days, they get in touch. The cell phone service was perfect both before and during our dinner. The food is delicious. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to try Mexican food, since most places make Tex-Mex food.

Food and service are top. Hardly any waiting times after ordering. Always happy

Dined here for dinner while visiting Cologne. When I heard we’d be having Mexican food while in Germany I was quite skeptical. However, the food was quite good and pretty authentic. The salsas are made in house and fresh and delicious. We had the guacamole and mini quesadillas to start. Then I tried an assortment of tacos and loved the small corn tortillas. Better than expected!

I love casita and I always will come but like I always said it need better presentation the food and not so little food on the plate , but the best Mexican food near to us we love it 😊 we are just a little bit disappointed how little food and the presentation of the plates . The restaurant is super and the ambience also 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼😊😊😊😊

There are much better Mexicans in the city.

🌮 Delicious food and nice staff 🌮

Very good Mexican restaurant that combines excellent food with a cozy, dimmed-light atmosphere and Mexican music. Gladly again ^^

As always, super tasty and great ambience

love love love the tacos! and will be back soon to try more things :) we had a weird 5-10 minutes standing at the "please wait here to be seated" sign, nobody even looking at us, but once through that point, it was really smooth! the staff is quick and friendly, the drinks arrived about immediately, dishes came out reasonably quickly also. and the place was about 70% packed - recommended to have reservation, and the online reservation tool makes that really simple. two thumbs up.

Very tasty food, delicious cocktails and friendly, fast service in a pleasant atmosphere. Gladly again!

The food and ambience are harmonious. Only the service could be a little more attentive, especially since we were almost alone in the restaurant in the afternoon. But everyone was friendly.

Delicious and very authentic mexican food. As a Mexican it's one of my favourite places to go to whenever someone wants to eat real mexican food. Can only recommend.

Ein großartiges Erlebnis. Eine köstliche Quesadilla mit 2 Füllungen und unfassbar leckeren Saucen. Habanero war der Endgegner, aber einen Versuch wert. Eine sehr nette Mitarbeiterin war sehr zuvorkommend. Auf jeden Fall eine Empfehlung.

Alle Gerichte waren super lecker und wir haben einen schönen Abend verbracht der Service war gut und das Ambiente ist locker bis rustikal

Very nice evening with top price-performance ratio and very nice service Would come back anytime had an appetizer platter and various burritos Everything was super tasty

The best Mexican food I’ve been able to find in Germany! The staff are warm and welcoming, the food was as authentic as you can get here and the drinks were delicious. My friend and I had to sit at the bar tables and the vibes were comfy and cosy. Don’t skip this place if you want great Mexican in Köln!

es war geplant mit mehreren Leuten hier Essen zu gehen. Leider hat es nicht wirklich hier geklappt einen Tisch zu organisieren. Bei Anruf hat man uns erklärt wir müssen dies sehr kompliziert online machen. Es kam auch eine Antwort zurück wir wären auf der Warteliste. Nach nochmaligen Anruf hat man uns mitgeteilt man wisse nicht, ob was frei ist und hat uns auf das System verwiesen. Dort kam dann keine Antwort mehr, aber dafür dann ein Anruf, der war aber dann obsolet weil wir woanders untergekommen sind. Technik kann vereinfachen aber hier scheint man sich nicht wirklich was überlegt zu haben oder die Angestellten können das System nicht ordentlich bedienen.

It was a nice evening with very nice staff

Food is delicious and also reasonably priced. In my opinion, drink prices are completely overpriced. Glass of cola 4.90, bottle of water 6.90. So you can leave it at just one drink 👎🏼 What we didn't really like was that on a Sunday afternoon when the restaurant was only half full, we had to squeeze into a table of two with three people. There are 4 chairs at these tables for 2, but you cannot eat comfortably at these tables with more than two people. We were denied a larger table...

Gente amable. Ubicación genial. Bonito rollo. ¡Comida increíble! Puedo recomendarlo a cualquiera que viva comida mexicana o quiera probar el bien mexicano.

The food is super delicious. On request you can also have some of the vegetarian dishes vegan, the service was quite attentive, fast and friendly. As expected, the restaurant is quite full and loud on a Friday evening, but the atmosphere is still very well themed and cozy. Prices are okay :) Small but: a friend of mine canceled the coriander order, but the food was still delivered with coriander. Sometimes I ordered a dish without cheese because of my lactose intolerance and still ended up with a thick layer of cheese in it. I would still like to come back, all in all a cool restaurant with good music, delicious food and a great atmosphere at a reasonable price with good public connections.

Spannendes buntes und modernes Ambiente. Wir haben die leckeren Tacos und Corona vom Fass probiert. Die knackigen Preise sind durchaus angemessen, denn hausgemachtes hat eben seinen Preis. "Casita" hebt sich ab, von den vielen Texmex-Läden, die nur Fertigfood aufwärmen und Mondpreise verlangen. Service war sehr freundlich und schnell. Wir kommen wieder! Danke!

Very authentic food. Extremely tasty.. especially the salsa

Very tasty fresh food, nice service, prices ok

Sorry, but the price-performance ratio doesn't fit at all. We were there with five adults and four children. Nobody was really full. The food is very subtly seasoned, carelessly prepared and didn't blow us away. Service was nice but not good. We waited 45 minutes for the starter trio (cold nachos with three cold sauces). I had to ask twice when they would finally come. We won't go there again.

Good food with good service. I can recommend it and would come again. I think the restaurant in the southern part of the city is better than the one in Belgium. In retrospect, however, you can smell a bit of frying fat.

Really rate the food here, but would go for a Burrito bowl over a burrito.

We were just passing by and saw a lot of people and went in out of curiosity. We got a mix plate to try more stuff, and everything was delicious! It's not spicy which i didn't expect, but it's still very very good. The only thing that could improve would be how the tea is served. Maybe a more suitable glass with a lid, for example.

Delicious and many combinations

As a big fan of Mexican cuisine, it was one of the best things I've eaten at various Mexican restaurants within a 60 km radius. Come again.

Ich liebe Mexikanische Küche und fahre dafür auch mal 50 KM weit. Dies ist aber eines der besten, in dem ich war. Absolute Geschmacksvielfalt. Komme gerne wieder.

We were there for lunch, it was very tasty. And the waiters are very friendly

Authentic Mexican food. A must if you are in Cologne south.

Very tasty, simple but honest food. Really comes close to Mexican cuisine. Staff is friendly and fast. In any case, I had a very tasty meal.

Food was ok, but expensive for the amount of food served. The 20€ Nachos were served cold with tasteless cheese Sauce. But Service and Staff were friendly and fast.

Highly recommended. Very delicious food and unbeatable service. Very good quality/price ratio

I was there with a friend I think €15.90 for a burrito WITHOUT any side dishes is really steep. And that's how it is with all things. There are obviously no side dishes. Absolutely not recommended for the price. The service is super bad. In the 3 hours we spent there we were only asked once what we wanted to drink. Sure we could ask, but that's not the point of the matter. The store itself seems pretty cool. But I wouldn't recommend it. I know better and cheaper Mexican places :)

Very nice and friendly service, the food is also very edible, gladly again.

Very good Mexican food. Their quesadillas are the best. 100% recommended

Düsseldorf Oberbilk gets 5 stars. Cologne Roonstrasse 4 stars. Mixed plates and homemade lemonade both times.

Heavenly food. By far the tastiest food I've tasted in köln. My favorite filling is Pollo con rajas. Just heavenly

Wir waren als Familie für einen lockeren und leckeren Abend hier und waren alle sehr zufrieden. Essen war lecker (nach meinem Geschmack besser als bei anderen Mexikanern in der Stadt), Service anfangs etwas schleppend, hat sich dann aber sehr gut eingeschwungen. Alle nett, relaxed, macht Spaß.

Yesterday we walked past the shop and decided on take away. When we arrived home with our food, we noticed that the order was not complete. I then called the store. The employee was very rude and hung up on me repeatedly. Last but not least, he called me, suddenly much friendlier, to tell me to come pick up the food in 30 minutes. No apology, no accommodation or at least an attempt at a more customer-oriented solution. I think there should have been a release, or at least an apology for the back and forth for us. The food didn't really taste that good after the event.

We are Mexican, and we are very surprised of this place, the decoration is so inspiring, a classical Mexican type, the menu include the most popular Mexican dishes, so we recommend to order the chips with guacamole, pastor tacos and the carne asada tacos are simply the best!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼💕💕💕
