Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

This place threw me into a depression when I first moved to Houma because I thought this was the kind of Mexican food I'd be facing in my Louisiana future. Thankfully lots of new places have opened up in both the authentic Mexican and Tex-Mex varieties. Good things: This place has really tasty margaritas. No doubt. The nachos are also pretty good, little individual chips with lots of tasty stuff baked on top. Bad: Everything else. The food is blaaaaand. I thought Cajuns liked spice? And they serve this weird bland hot (the physical temperature, not the spice) salsa that gives me nightmares.

Absolutely the worst Mexican food I've ever eaten! Terrible food. I'd rather eat Taco Bell. I miss good Mexican food since out of the 3-4 mex restaurants in town, not one is even close to authentic Mexican food.

My favorite salsa in town. Food is pretty good, too! Juan style fajitas are my favorite!
(4)Kenny G.
Terrible salsa, queso dip tasted watered down, not to mention the subpar nachos. All in all, not impressive.

I recently stopped in here for a drink with a friend at the bar. We were promptly helped by the lady bartender and I ordered a margarita, on the rocks, sans salt. The bartender came back with our drinks pretty quickly and a menu I requested. The margarita was pretty good and I would go back for another, especially during happy hour when they are $5. Woohoo! I'll have two!!! Just kidding... not really. I was a little disappointed that there weren't very many favorable options small bites for the bar, just the restaurant appetizer menu. I'm being picky, I know, but I like happy hour menus with food on them. I didn't order any food; however... Despite my lack of enthusiasm for the menu, one very cool thing is that there is a complementary taco bar for guests who purchase and drink alcoholic beverages. I believe the rule is taken very seriously, as there is a sign posted to ensure enforcement. They have empty crunchy shells ready to be loaded up with beans, ground beef, and all of the appropriate taco fixins. There are also chips and salsa to munch on. I opted for the taco bar route. Let me tell you, this was a great idea for a bar. Being a lightweight drinker, I appreciated the little bite of food without committing to a 4 person appetizer. However, if this taco bar represents the restaurant, I was left a little disappointed. The beef was very salty and otherwise not very flavorful and the salsa was kind of bland. The bartender didn't really check up on us very much either. She took our order, brought our drinks and menu, checked to see if we wanted to order food, but didn't speak with her again until after our glasses had been drained for a while and we were able to get her attention to get the check. It appeared that she may have been the only bartender for the bar AND the restaurant, so I can be forgiving of that. Would I come here again? Sure, for happy hour drinks. Not sure I'd get too heartbroken if I never tried the restaurant though.

I grew up on La Casa. When I'd visit my grandparents over the summer, we'd go to La Casa after church and we all always ordered the same thing. I'm going to warn you, this is not authentic Mexican food, nor is it real Tex-Mex, it's something completely different, and as it appears, not too many people dig it. I, however, make it a plan to visit whenever I can. I love their hot salsa, guacamole, and burritos (lazy or happy, I can never remember which one until I look at the menu), which are huge, stuffed full of goodness and smothered in some sort of delicious (enchilada?) sauce and melted cheddar cheese. I thought maybe it was just nostalgia for me, but after my most recent visit, I still love it!! The hours are kind of wonky and service is not real great!

This establishment is somewhat racist! We were treated like a second class citizens by the wait staff. When they went to seat us they were going to take us to the furthest part of the restaurant. When we objected we were sat at a better table. The waitress took forever taking our order / finally we ordered our food. She also refilled everyone's water except ours and kept checking on the patrons except us. We had to keep flagging her down for water, extra napkins and our check. Let's talk about the food ... Mediocre at best! We were disappointed on the quality. The food lacked flavor and I had to add salt and pepper just to try to eat it. The salsa was merely heated stewed tomatoes then placed in a bowl. It is always my goal to write only positive reviews or say nothing at all but in this case people of color should know yo be weary of this place if you expect good service! If I could erase the one star I would they deserve not even a star!

I was very disappointed in this restaurant. The only positive was the excellent service. The chips were mediocre and the salsa tasted like a warmed up can of diced tomatoes that had seasoning added to it. I ordered the Lunch Enchiladas which were accompanied by rice and beans. The rice tasted like Minute Rice that had been soaked in yellow food coloring. The beans were runny and tasteless. The Enchiladas were OK but the gravy was bland. I will give this place another try sometime in the future.

Absolutely over the top service--our waiter Fernando and manager Sergio were awesome. The top shelf margarita was perfect, and the food was very good. It's probably as authentic as you can get considering you are way-down-south in Louisiana. The reviewer on here talking about this not being "Tex-Mex" should realize Tex-Mex is only found in Texas, NOT in Mexico. The food is fresh, and the portions are generous. Comparing it to food I've had in different parts of Mexico, I was happy to have found this as the other place in town may as well be Taco Bell. Bonus points for having homemade tamales and a really good variety of dishes to appeal to many different tastes!! Reasonable prices and a friendly, knowledgeable staff!

Margaritas are good here but the food is mediocre Tex-Mex at best. I've never understood the love that this place gets until I realized that most people in Houma have just been deprived of good Tex-Mex food and definitely deprived of Mexican food. If you need any evidence just look at Ryan's review. Mom and pop Mexican? Please. It's locally owned but it's far from a mom and pop type of Mexican place. Thankfully some places are starting to open up around town with some more authentic selections. I truly feel sorry for people who think that this place is awesome Mexican food because they've been missing out for years. That would be like saying that Outback is the greatest steaks ever without ever having tried a place like Ruth's Chris or similar caliber. The main difference of course being that you don't have to pay a lot of money for good Mexican food.

I've been going to La Casa del Sol since I was a kid. I remember the food being a lot better than it is now. Maybe it's because I've eaten authentic Mexican food since then, or maybe my young taste buds were deceiving me; who knows. I came back to visit family in Houma last year and took my husband to eat here since I remember the food being bomb. Well it left much to be desired, and that's putting it nicely. I agree with one of the previous reviews that said the "salsa" tasted like they heated up a can of tomatoes and added spices to it. I ordered the enchiladas, and my husband ordered the tacos. Seven minutes after we ordered our food, the waiter brought it out to us. I felt like we were at Taco Bell, but I really feel like Taco Bell is better. Both my husband and I's food came out cold so we didn't really eat it. Eh, it's a pass. It seems if you want okay "Mexican" food in Houma, then go to Taco Bell.

Juan Fajitas were great. Family oriented with birthday parties and Elmo walking around. Nice to see Don Julio 1942 as an option for Tequila!

The best salsa ever I mean ever great margaritas great food love it twice a week for 20 years!!!!!!

If you go to the Houma WEST SIDE La Casa and you like Margaritas at all, then order a Top Shelf Margarita. On most nights, they are the best margaritas I have had EVER! The food is pretty good, service decent, salsa is fantastic! Burritos are huge and tasty. Nachos good too!

Whoa...this is supposed to be Mexican food? I've had better Mexican at a roach coach in San Francisco. The only reason I'm giving it two stars is because the waitress was sweet. I'm with PhillyPhil l. on this one. If you've ever had authentic Mexican food, you will be terribly disappointed with La Casa Del Sol. Anyone who gives this place 5 star review needs to broaden their horizon's and get out of Houma! -The salsa tasted like tomato sauce out of a can. When we asked for hot sauce, it came out looking just like the salsa...and tasted like cold tomato soup. -Their "Mexican Rice" had some frozen style peas and carrots in it and it tasted more like a bad stir fry than Mexican rice. -The tacos had little to no flavor and the ingredients tasted far from fresh. Sensing a theme here? Trust me, you'll be better off making an Old El Paso dinner kit at home.

Wow - worst Mexican food ever. Salsa tasted like tomato sauce out of a can. Chips stale. Drink (mt dew) was in a bottle and they didn't even offer a glass. The two different entrees were just as bad. I've traveled a lot and this was by the far worst ever. I had to give one star to post review.
