Casa Azul reviews highlight an authentic Mexican experience with a vibrant Frida Kahlo inspired decor, a warm and attentive atmosphere in many visits, and dishes like moles, molcajete, chiles en nogada, ceviche, enchiladas and beef dishes that showcase traditional flavors, along with solid mezcal cocktails and hibiscus drinks. While many praise the ambiance and flavorful food, others note slow or uneven service, portions that can feel small for the price, and occasional dishes served lukewarm or missing elements. Overall, it reads as a beautiful, welcoming spot that can feel like a festive dinner out or a romantic date, with live music at times and plenty of reasons to return and try more of the menu.
I came here for brunch with my friends & we had a really great experience overall. The food was absolutely delicious-everything we tried was flavorful, fresh, & very well prepared. You can really tell they put effort into the quality & presentation.
The place is beautiful & has a nice atmosphere, although it is quite small, so it can feel a bit crowded, especially during busy brunch hours.
The buffet is on the pricier side at $35 per person (plus taxes), & drinks are not included, which adds up. That said, I do think it's worth it for the quality of the food.
One thing that could definitely be improved is the service speed. The staff are very kind & friendly, but the system is a bit slow since you can't serve yourself-someone serves you, which creates long lines & waiting times.
Overall, despite a few downsides, I would still recommend this place for a tasty & enjoyable brunch experience!
Extremely disappointing experience. Reserved a large group for a birthday brunch. Arrived at noon to find a locked door, were finally let in after a few minutes of knocking. Staff seemed disinterested in providing us any information nor did they seem prepared for us or any other guests. Server was completely uninformed about the menu & drink options & appeared to be inexperienced & overwhelmed by a single table.
The only option was a buffet. After being seated at 12 the buffet was not ready until almost 1pm. Once it opened they only had a single staff member serving & the line was 15-20 people long at all times with a 20+ minute wait to finally be served. What was meant to be a fun birthday brunch turned in to a long wait, overpriced food, & god awful service.
Bills came & it was time for more confusion as they needed to be reprinted several times to account for erroneous items.
Would not return, would not recommend & would not force this place on my worst enemy.
As a Mexican I had great expectations about this brunch especially because I've been here for dinner 3 times.
Honestly this brunch does not worth 35CAD.
They basically offer you tacos dorados (fried tacos), enchiladas, pozole & eggs…
If this place is run by a Mexican they should know that they need desperately offer: fruit, juice, unlimited coffee, bread, & more options for food. There are plenty of options that could be offered apart from their very sad eggs.
I would recommend this place for dinner & nice drinks, but their brunch is basically made of tacos dorados & eggs. All other stuff are sides!
:( so sad our experience was this bad. I hope the owner can take a look at this & make sure local people get a real Mexican experience because our breakfasts/brunchs are much more than this.
Food was Ok but too expensive, the service was slow & downstairs we were freezing all night. This was one of the worse experience I had in a long time. I do not recommend going to this place during the cold season.

Super bonne cuisine mexicaine, ambiance sympathique. Je recommande !!
Nous avons pris le plat de viande à partager & il était très copieux. Une bonne découverte 😊
Le pire restaurant que j'ai visité dans ma vie!
Nous sommes allés avec mes parents pour passer une belle soirée en famille, des qu'on est arrivé l'attention c'était horrible, on a dû attendre pour un table quand il y avait pas trop des gens sur place, ensuite on a commandé de churros avec crème glace, ils ont pris la commande & sans rien réfuter pour dire après 45minutes qu'ils avaient pas crème glace!
1 heure d'attendre pour rien recevoir! L'attention c'est horrible & la communication qu'ils ont entre eux mêmes pour l'attention aux clientes c'est encore pire.
Je vous recommande fortement de NE PAS Y ALLER.
Ordered rice & beans for our child - never brought it out. Food was ok but not overwhelmingly good. Slow service despite only a few table occupied - do not recommend for kids.
10/10! So much fun!!! The carne molcajete was amazing, the drinks were incredible & the service was impecable. The restaurant is very beautiful as well. I would recommend this experience to anyone! I highly recommend the mezcal drinks as well as the horchata carajillo (it's the perfect dessert)

Our team organized a taco evening at Casa Azul (20 people). We enjoyed every moment. The food was excellent & generous. The service was outstanding. They arranged the reception hall downstairs for us, & the decor was fantastic. They also provided us with a sound system & a microphone. This place is highly recommended for events.
Je suis de retour dans ce restaurant pour la troisième fois & je suis impressionné par le service, la qualité des ses assietes & l'ambiance,ce qui me pousse à le recommander. Pour ma part, je suis un fervent amateur de ceviche & dans ce restaurant,ils préparent une assiette exceptionnelle.

We visited Casa Azul yesterday for my birthday & were truly impressed. It's a Mexican restaurant with a unique & refined twist, & I must say - the food was absolutely delicious!
The beef tacos were exquisite - packed with flavor & cooked to perfection. But what truly stole the show were the spicy margaritas - seriously, to die for!
What made the experience even more special was the outstanding customer service. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Our waitress, who had short hair, was incredibly friendly, professional, & made us feel so welcome - it was honestly refreshing. The entire staff was helpful, attentive, & patient.
Bravo to the whole team!
I can't wait to go back - especially if there's live music or shows in the future.
This vibrant Mexican restaurant is a hidden gem-perfect for a fun & memorable night out. The lively, colourful atmosphere set the right tone for the evening. The food was delicious, with authentic Mexican dishes prepared with care, & the cocktails were top-notch. The service was friendly & attentive, & the thoughtful décor & small touches really added to the experience. Special thanks to our waiter & to Fatima. We had a wonderful time & will definitely be back. Highly recommend!
