Casa Maria - Baton Rouge

Been here a number of times, almost all for dinner and for the most part we have enjoyed it. As good as most other Mexican eateries in the area and pours a good margarita if you know the lay of the land. As i have said before, it is tough here on BR to get a marg just how you want it.<br/ <br/ Decent sized dining rooms and service has never been an issue.<br/ <br/ Enchilada, fajita and relleno are out go to.<br/ <br/ Have not been in a while. Overdue to try them again.

Food was awesome the service was also!!!!! Def. would recommend!!!!!

Great food!!. I am in town from Houston on a business trip. Coming to Casa Maria was as good if not better than some of the mexican food restaurants at home! I highly recommend.

Favorite Margarita Joint Back In College. They do pretty good margarita specials especially the all day 2 for 1 on Saturday. We used to go get tuned up at Casa before going hanging by the pool. Great place with a family atmosphere. The employees all seem happy and stay around for a long time so you're seeing the same people. I just like it.

Best Tex-Mex in Baton Rouge. When I moved here a dozen years ago from Dallas which is to Tex-Mex what south Louisiana is to crawfish), I lived practically around the corner from Casa Maria, and it became a convenient place to get my biweekly chicken enchilada fix. Since then, I've eaten at half a dozen other Mexican places in BR, and while some of them are pretty good and some are thoroughly mediocre), Casa Maria is still the best I've found. The menu is broad enough combo plates as well as fajitas and grilled items) and moderately priced $10-$12 for a very filling meal plus iced tea), the staff is competent and friendly, and I've never had to wait more than 3-5 minutes for a table, even at busy times. And my wife assures me the margaritas are first-rate. There's always a mix of young families, after-work groups, travelers, and 20-somethings on dates. The only problems are 1) the continuing road construction at Bluebonnet Perkins, which slows access to their parking lot, and 2) the decreased size of the lot itself since the self-storage place went up where their rear parking used to be.
