I have been here for breakfast several times and there is always a line. We decided to try dinner with friends. This was a mistake. There was never any wow in anything. The servers were very interested in themselves and food was bland and so-so. I'll come back for Breakfast, but they will not be getting my lunch or dinner business.

Every day at 8 a.m., we start chopping veggies, soaking beans, and prepping our mesquite-fired grill. Not because we have to, but because we believe in delicious flavors made-to-order, from hand-rolled enchiladas to our sizzling fajitas to guacamole made

Where to begin? Crazy night. First things first...great chips and salsa...it kept coming...instead of our food. Took a long long time to get our food...and then they got it all wrong. Not gluten free corn rn tortillas for quesadilla as requested but wheat. Sent back. Returned with corn but was half the portion size for $13.00 as the wheat one was! Say whaaat? I ordered fajitas. No tortillas. Then wrong ones. By the time they came out the sizzling fajitas had fizzled! The large margarita as small. All the time they acted like tee hee hee...finally when I asked for a manager he came out and I gave him and earful. Something about kitchen issues. The only reason this is a 3 star and not a 1 star review is he comped the meals and drinks. I thought that was professional...at least something that night was. The fresh guacamole was good I'll say that.

Right before I moved from Loveland, I visited this establishment twice. I wish I had I tried it sooner. The food seems authentic, it's a bargain and the staff was friendly. You must go here if you like Mexican food. A hole-in-the-wall located downtown near the library.

We went in for burger Monday. The parking, obviously downtown, was not good and we ended up about 2 blocks away. The place gets crowded quickly and there are a limited number of tables to sit at. They do have a bar and high top tables, but they are difficult for a party of 4 to eat at for dinner. The burgers here are good, the sides are all good, and the drinks are good as well! They do like to nickel and dime you on the little stuff. Extra for chicken, side sauces, etc. The main problem here is the service. I don't know if it was just because it was a burger Monday, but it was terrible! Our drinks were empty most of the night and we talked for almost 20 minutes with dirty plates on the table waiting for the check. They got a new "iPad at the table" type system for ordering and check out, but it doesn't speed things up. I can only recommend this place of you want good food and have plenty of time!

We eat here frequently, it is a great place to take the whole family as well as guests. The whole menu is great. One of our favorites is the burrito supreme. The lunch specials are cheap, delicious and the service is fast and friendly. Chips and salsa are served free. They also have a Ft. Collins location.

New in Loveland, CO. Same ownership and menu as El Cielo in Greeley, Colorado.
Reviewed By Pitbull103
First time eating there and it was solid...better than expected. The atmosphere is average, but the service was good. Food came out fast and the mole enchiladas were yummy. The free chips were average and they give you refried beans for dipping instead of salsa. I would prefer salsa, but it seems there is a salsa bar if you want to get up and grab that instead. The hostess who seated us was probably 12 years old, and the boy who gave us silverware was extremely young but oh so polite. Nothing wrong with that, but it shows they are likely a family place. I would go back.

Had a fantastic dinner last night at Mexican Inn! Our server was friendly and gave us some good advice on our orders. Our party ordered four different items and no one was disappointed. Four great entrees as well as great quac and beef queso for appetizers. Their margaritas are wonderful. Try the mango marg on the rocks! Finished up with sopapillas and they were so good! Highly recommend this place and we'll be going back often!

The food here is average at best. Margaritas were good. The beef in the enchiladas reminded us of taco bell. Carne asada in salad was more like beef jerky.

Family Mexican restaurant that is owned by mother and son looking to bring the taste of Guadalajara Mexico to Loveland Colorado. We are focused on serving good food to good people. Casa Real continues to grow and prosper, and further differentiates itself
Reviewed By DiveMoreWorkLess
With so many Mexican food restaurants in the Northern Colorado, we realized we had not tried the Casa Real in Loveland, so we decided to stop in for lunch one Saturday afternoon. We were very glad we did!Almost every table was occupied, which was a good sign. Our server was very pleasant and assisted us with our choices from the large menu. Food was made fresh to order, and we tried a Combination Plate and Carne Asada Taco Plate. Each entree was served with refried beans and rice. Complimentary chips and salsa were served with our drink order. Portion sizes were perfect for lunch, but we were too full to enjoy dessert.The food was very tasty, and we tried the green chile sauce and habanero sauce on the side in addition to the fresh-made salsa. The house salsa was delicious and can be purchased separately. The green chile sauce was slightly spicy and had good chile flavor. The habanero sauce was hot with average flavor.Casa Real is located in a very busy shopping center next door to a major grocery store, so parking was adequate. Restrooms were clean and tidy. A full bar service was available.Bottom Line: We will surely dine at the Casa Real the next time we're craving good Mexican food in Loveland, CO.

This was our first visit and after asking what items our waitress would recommend, we realized that we were all looking at those items. The queso dip to start our meal was great. We had the crispy palomino with a poblano, chicken picadillo & chicken enchiladas. We finished out our meal with sopapillas. Little more than what we pay typically for lunch but we ended up just having a snack for dinner
