Casa Santiago: Reviews & Ratings
So far this has been the best Mexican restaurant I've found in the Decatur area. Inside is clean, and decorated nicely. The menu is large with plenty to choose from.
There are quite a number of mexican restaurants in the decatur area that I have yet to try, but I'm sure a few of them are gonna have their work cut out for them when compared to Casa Santiago (casa for short). Lets discuss. The salsa was wonderfully balanced with a cilantro bite that came out on top with a hint of onions, tomatoes, and chilies. Honestly, prolly some of the best salsa I have had in a while. For my entree, I changed it up and had the Canario. Two chicken chimichangas drizzled in cheese sauce. Normally I'm not big on chimis, but these were different. The outer shell was not too crisp yet not too soft either, and the melted cheese helped balance out its imperfections. The chicken on the inside was not too dry but not dripping wet (which is one of my pet peeves about chimis) and spiced up rather well. Finally, the guacamole on the side was very flavorful and fresh like it was just made that morning. Everything was very good, and service was very prompt and attentive. I highly recommend Casa on 6th avenue for its convenience alone. But convenience aside, the food, the atmosphere is worth going out of the way for. As I said before, Decatur has many mexican restaurants that I am sure are very good, but Casa is definitely one of the greats. Since Yelp only lets you give whole numbers when giving ratings I will give Casa a 5/5 but it is definitely worth every star.
We enjoy the food, plenty of space, good chips and salsa, good service, have to pay extra if using card. Visited this location twice and has been good both times. We plan on returning. Moved into top 2 of our favorite Mexican restaurants in Decatur if not #1
Just a few days after my calorie-laden meal with John for the sake of Birria tacos, I got a Snapchat from BJ letting me know that she and Jeannie were at Casa Santiago Mexican Grill on 6th Avenue. The picture she sent? Quesabirrias on the menu. Off I went! Though not my #1 Birria taco, it IS #1 in Decatur so far! Super meaty, lots of flavor, crispy, ooey gooey cheese. Even better after adding the cilantro, onions, and red sauce. I will definitely be returning for these... and for the Pueblo Tacos Jeannie got. These are my now-favorite street tacos in Decatur. Cute presentation too. BJ got the Sanchez Burrito. Beefy with all the toppings inside, with just cheese sauce on the outside. It was good, as were the chips, salsa, and guacamole. Aside from the food, I appreciate the toned down decor of Casa Santiago lol. #HeatherEats #VisitDecaturAL
