We chose Casa Mexico looking for a restaurant with vegan options in Hyde Park, and were happy with our choice overall. The waiter was better than most when we ordered from the vegetarian section, asking whether or not we wanted sour cream and cheese.

I noticed this on both of the visits so that's why I mention it. The stairs are awkward for a person with limited mobility to navigate though. Also, be prepared to possibly have to walk a couple blocks as parking is on the streets and can be very limited at times. The great food is the reason why I will continue going back and why I recommend it to others looking for good...
