My wife and another couple joined us for dinner at Casa Margarita in Orland Park. This was our first time here (we've been to the one in LaGrange many times) and we were absolutely blown away. When you walk in the first thing you see is a gorgeous waterfall decorated with flowers. All throughout the restaurant are gorgeous murals which the manager told us were all hand painted on canvas and then fixed to the walls. The bar/longue was filled with plasmas and the neatest bar stools you'll ever see. We all had Margaritas of course....AMAZING.. I've been to Mexico and many other restaurants and to this day these reign as the best. My wife had the swirl (Sangria swirled with House Margarita) and it was also quite delicious. Now the most important thing...the food. My wife and I had the fajitas; she had steak and I had shrimp. They were just amazing. The green pepper and onion with the shrimp was just out of this world. The portion were huge on top of it. We all had doggie bags. Our friends had the Carne Asada and Burrito Suizo. They both seemed to enjoy it as they ate just about all of it and said it was the best Mexican restaurant they had been to (they are quite the critics when it comes to mexican food). The atmosphere is just beautiful and we can't wait until the weather warms up so we can enjoy our food on the patio. We shared a fried ice cream which was truly a taste of heaven. If you haven't given this place a try yet or it is well worth every penny and I would recommend it to anyone. It looks like a great place to sit and have a drink as well as the bar was packed with people mingling with on another. Highly recommend! A+++
Pros: Great food, margaritas, atmosphere, low prices....
Cons: There is a wait on Friday and Saturday nights...no biggie.
