Casa Tomas

Finally! The wife and I have been trying restaurant after restaurant in Nacagdoches finding nothing. Casa Tomas tastes like a 5 star chef from New York decided to hide away and start cooking Mexican food in East Texas. The food has flavor, something I haven't seen in town yet. I've spent hundreds on food that didn't have half the flavor. Well done! We'll be back and bring friends. Oh, and you have to try theirv strawberry margaritas. Excellent.

I rate at 1 star because our waiter was awesome! This is constructive criticism. .... ..I looked at the good reviews before we went and they got to be kidding!! The food is nothing short of terrible! Maybe people around here are just used to it. The tomato salsa and sauces are all made from canned tomatoes or sauces and you can taste it. Nothing fresh...all canned! No natural fresh flavor. ..the beans didnt taste like beans...they have some kind of aftertaste ...not natural taste for beans ...cant really figure our what they did to make the beans taste like "NOT BEANS.".they may have come from a can also..go figure. Rice was just ok. The con queso puff was something I had never seen before...it looked pretty on the plate..it had a texture much like a crunchy fortune cookie with queso poured over it. NOT good..I think more of a novelty item cause it is different.Anything with queso poured over it has got to make it better...right? No. I have had over a half million people read my reviews. I review a lot of places and not often I give a 1 star review....thumbs down! This isn't even close to the taste of real mexican food.

First time here and the food is delicious, the prices are good, and the service was exceptional! Our server was Anneka, she was so helpful and polite (and not in the fake, "I'm only being nice cuz I have to" way). She was on top of everything, and very helpful, and patient answering allergy questions. I love that they have green sauce, with plenty of cilantro! Highly recommend!

I have eaten at Casa Tomas many times over the years and they have (had) the best queso in Nacogdoches. Last week when we ate there, the food was terrible 🤢. The restaurant wasn't very busy, maybe 30% of the tables were occupied. I don't think there were more than 2 servers for the whole restaurant. Our chips, salsa, and drinks ran out for long periods of time. Our food seemed to have taken a long time to arrive, despite the restaurant being mostly empty. My husband is NOT a picky eater, and he couldn't eat his food it was so bad. Same goes for my son and myself. The taco on my plate was the only edible part of my order. Our server was either completely overwhelmed, new, or just plain inattentive. I'm not one who frequently gives poor reviews, but unfortunately this one is well deserved. We won't be going back. 👎
