Casa Grande — Restaurant in Poplar Bluff

Fresh Tasting, Good Food ~ Slow Service

We were traveling through and discovered this restaurant through Yelp. Because we arrived in Poplar Bluff late, we were limited in our options. We gave this place a chance. We got there around 45 minutes before closing time. We ordered. The food arrived quicker than I expected and we were very surprised, it was quite fresh tasting, with lots of flavor.

The service given by our server was rather slow. Not sure if that's their norm, or if it's because we arrived before closing time and he was wanting to finish his "closing chores" and get out of there. The other thing I think people should know, is that the restaurant smelled like cigarette smoke. They don't allow smoking in the restaurant, we figured it was because they share a wall with a bar. It may not smell like this during the day, but the bar was hopping this particular night, so the cigarette smoke was pretty strong. This is why I'm giving 4 stars...

My husband is working out of town this week. This is our first time here in popular bluff. We are from South East Texas so we know good Mexican food. Casa Grande is GREAT Mexican food!! The location was really easy to find. The staff was super friendly and seated us quickly. We were checked on multiple times throughout the meal. I really appreciate that level of service. I ordered beef and chicken enchiladas with a with a Verde type sauce. We also ordered beans and rice as a side.The tortillas were so soft and fresh. The chicken and beef were seasoned very well. If you like authentic Spanish rice then you will love the rice. The queso was creamy and warm. Our chips were so fresh! The glasses are HUGE so you don't have to worry about running out of your drink. Sorry my food was eaten on in the photos...it was so good!! We definitely recommend casa grande👌5 stars 🌟 If you found my review helpful please give me a thumbs...

My mother and I were on the way back home from a business trip and decided to try Casa Grande over the other restaurants in the area, and we are sure glad we did!

The food was the best we ever had at a Mexican restaurant in a very long time. The complementary salsa was fresh and absolutely delicious, and the tortilla chips were perfectly salted and crunchy. My mother had their chimichangas and when she breathed in before taking a bite, she was stunned by how good the air around the food tasted. I had their molcajete dish with chicken, steak, and cactus in it and it was sooooo good.

I took what I couldn't eat home with me and it stayed tender and delicious over the course of three days and being warmed in a microwave. If you are in the area, please, eat here. You won't be...
