Casa Blanca Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in North Andover

12/30/19 update: Bumping my review up to 4 stars because I went last night to the North Andover location and it was a night and day difference. Service was awesome, our server was fantastic. Personable, informative and attentive even though she had multiple tables at the same time. The food was DRASTICALLY improved. We started with the mini chimichanga appetizer which was perfectly cooked and very flavorful. My wife got the nachos supreme with chicken as her meal and it was a unique presentation. Instead of a heap of chips with toppings, it was a tortilla cut into large slices and individually topped. Very healthy portion, and delicious. I had the carne asada and it was tender and so delicious. That skirt steak can be tricky, but the kitchen absolutely nailed it for me. I will bump this up to 5 stars if I can get a repeat performance from last night, but everything about my experience was so vastly improved over prior visits that I had to rave about it.

Original review: Food isn't bad, but it's bland. There's just not much going on in terms of service or flavor here. I got the nachos, on the menu they were listed as having a chicken or steak option to add on. I ordered them with steak, and they came topped with a very finely ground beef in some sort of sauce. Reminded me of cat food, it wasn't overly appetizing. Tasted okay, but again, kinda bland. Management here needs to take a look at their menu and service, as nothing was wrong, but there's a lot of room for...

Woah woah woah, I thought that you could only get real authentic Mexican cuisine in Mexico or Spanish countries. Casa Blanca blows everything out of the Panama Canal. Parking is plenty however if it’s a super busy night you’ll need to find somewhere else to park. The restaurant atmosphere is nice, lots of friendly staff there (I didn’t have any communication issues). Our server was new (actually first night at his job) and he was amazing (thanks Eduardo)! They bring out warm chips and three dips (the green sauce is super good). Also just wanted to make a note on the napkins, best napkins I’ve seen / used at a restaurant.

We ordered a three combo meal and a taco salad. Let me tell you that, my favorite taco salad has been in San Francisco for the last 7 years, and holy moly guacamole Casa Blanca exceeds my very high standards. That Taco salad is AMAZING. So much food. The Three combo meal was also amazing, in fact I took it home to eat later. Service is great (also depending on the server) you’ll have all your needs met. The food is 10/10. Nice selection of domestic and imported beers. Casa Blanca is my new favorite...

I’ve eaten at this location a couple of times and received average service and decent food. The restaurant has recently been doing delivery through uber eats. Unfortunately, they cant seem to include the dressing with my wife’s salad. The first time, we just called to give them a heads up. The second time, after arguing with whoever answered the phone that they, in fact, do delivery through uber eats, we were told there would be no manager in until Wednesday or Thursday. She was then told to come to the restaurant and they’ll happily give her dressing. Sure, we just paid someone to deliver our food, we’ll be right over!

I called back and spoke with Carlos, who told me the manager, Danny, wouldn’t be in until 7pm today. I worked in a restaurant for years. It’s unheard of for no manager to be on duty during prime business hours. Carlos repeatedly suggested I take up the issue with uber eats, making more work for me and uber eats when we are the only ones who held up our parts of the bargain flawlessly.

You could do worse than this place, but there’s better Mexican to be had in Lawrence, and with...
