My co-workers and I came here on a Thursday afternoon for a team celebration. It was a late lunch, and we were ready for a feast! For my second time dining at Casa Orozco, I expected the the same quality of food, comfy ambiance, and attentive service that I received during my first visit. I went in anticipating mediocre Mexican/Southwestern food for moderately high prices (at least compared to other nearby Mexican restaurants). Please excuse my cynicism, but having wood fireplaces, HDTV's, and fancy paintings on the walls doesn't make your grub taste any better/more expensive. However, having qualified chefs (*check*) and competent staff (*check*) does add value to the company.\r

We started off with a couple bowls of fresh, chunky guacamole, salsa and chips, and chicken quesadillas. I could see how Casa Orozco's menu would appeal to customers with various tastes and preferences. The have everything from carne asada to chicken enchilada to shrimp quesadillas and fish tacos. I love seafood, and my natural tendency is to order crustaceans and delicious finned creatures when I have the options. My friend and I shared the shrimp fajitas and a pan-fried tilapia dish. We were delighted with the presentation and portion-size of both dishes. Not only were they visually pleasing, the entrees were also flavor-fully pleasing
