Casa De Lago - OJAI

Passing through this area stopped to grab some food to go.Sweet gentlemen at the front with a nice smile took my order then said it’s just a waiting game now.Thought it would take a while when he said it like that but he came back in a couple minutes with the same nice smile and a bag with my order that would feed 3.In the car the it smelled really good.. granted we were really hungry.Everyone was happy with the taste of the food. Beans were like abuelita makes, enchilada sauce (not from a can) was earthy and tasty not to spicy for my son and the shred beef tacos were nothing to complain about, very tasty.Great for everyone. Will return if in the area. Saved in my favorites!!!!

SUPER HOT INSIDE. NO AC. OVER PRICED FOOD NOT AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD. HOT SAUCE NOT HOT AT ALL. DONT RECOMMEND THE NEW YORK STEAK NOTHING BUT RUBBER.THE WAITRESS WAS THE ONLY GOOD THING I EXPERIENCE THERE.

Good food, reasonable prices, hometown feeling. Guac was just okay, but burrito was excellent. Friendly servers, has a very local vibe.

Imagine my surprise when I ordered my normal meal of two chicken tacos. The price went up but I don't have a problem with that. I realize costs have gone up and I don't mind paying more. The problem is that the tacos were half the size that they used to be. Like a street taco size for $4.50 each tax. To make matters worse, there were no chips included with our meals. I guess since I ordered a large bag of chips $9.75 tax) to take home for my family, paid for by me, they decided that they didn't need to give any of the normally included chips to anyone else. I personally paid over $30 for my food and I'm so disappointed. I won't be eating there anymore. We also left a $10 tip for a take out order.

Everything was excellent. They made the carnitas perfect and the chips were hot and crispy. Will def be back again next time we are in town A+
