Casita

Excellent Oaxacan cuisine served here. Highly recommend the Mole Negro with its depth of flavours and spice. The Tlayuda is gigantic and filled with delicious variety of ingredients. Great Mezcals are on the drinks menu. Do start with their tasty guacamole & chips. You can thank me later. Enjoy!

The food here is absolutely spectacular! We had a hard time choosing, in the best way. Every dish was outstanding. The mushroom empanada with pistachio mole was mind bending good, with a perfectly flaky crunchy shell made from their hose pressed masa. I don’t think you can go wrong with any choice here!

Made reservations for me & my husband to celebrate my 50th birthday at Casita on Sunday 8/31. The staff was warm, welcoming & attentive. They had placed a postcard on our table with a "Happy Birthday, ♡ Casita" written on it, and brought us a few churros with chocolate dipping sauce & a candle on it towards the end of our meal. Margaritas were solid, and the street corn gnocchi was one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life! Would gladly make the 2 hour drive out there to dine again, hopefully sooner rather than later!

I went with my family, and we had a great experience! We has a remarkable capacity to eat food, so we ordered a lot lol. To drink, I got the Auga Fresca which was guava, some simple syrup, water and lime. It was perfectly refreshing for a hot day! We got a lot of dishes and shared, but the stand out dish of the night was definitely the Street Corn Gnocchi. It was sooooo soft and pillowy, and is so comforting and cheesy and soft. The tacos, which we got with a side of rice and beans, were classic and delicious. (can't go wrong with rice and beans!) The yucca fries were suuper salty and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The dip is also very good! The other dishes in the pictures were also good, but to me the ones I listed were very stand out. Dessert was also very good, we got the Panna Cotta and the churros. The Panna Cotta was mango with graham cracker crumbles, and wasn't too heavy to end the meal. The mango taste was prominent, but not too strong. The churros were perfectly crispy and in the words of my mom "I love churros and these are some of the best I've had". The service was good, and the food came out very quickly. Would come again!

We had an amazing time at Casita. The food was genuinely mind blowing and holds its own against some Michelin starred experiences we’ve had. Staff was delightful and the restaurant setting is cute and authentic to the cuisine, without being performative and set-like. I expected a nice post museum date but got so much more and we will definitely be making the 90 min trip again to come back.

Casita – A Delightful Culinary Experience Near MASS MoCA! Every time we’ve visited the MASS MoCA area, Casita has caught our eye—and we finally had the chance to dine there. It can be tricky without a reservation, but we made it in, and it was absolutely worth the wait! We started with the vegetarian Chilaquiles (a small hiccup—they included egg despite our request, but the dish was still fantastic). The tortilla chips were perfectly simmered in rich coloradito mole and topped with onion, cilantro, nopales, crema, and queso fresco. Truly delicious! The Yucca fries with chipotle aioli might just be the best we've ever had—crispy on the outside, soft inside, and full of flavor. And the Holy Kale Salad was a standout—definitely more than your average salad! It came dressed with a flavorful goddess dressing, house-made croutons, and a sprinkle of cotija, creating a wonderfully balanced bite. Overall, Casita delivered a warm, flavorful, and memorable experience. We'll be back!

I looked but unfortunately couldn’t find a 6th star to give Casita. These peeps are the real deal, and you can see it, taste it, and feel it when you’re there. They care about their food, they care about their patrons, and they deliver a great experience. We’re lucky to have a restaurant like this in town, so if you’re coming through and need a bite to eat, this is the place you want to be. If it’s lunch – Hamburguesa, Tecate If it’s dinner – Al Pastor Chop, ask about the wine. For a treat – whatever the bar is cooking and don’t skip churros and ice cream. 💪

We truly loved everything! We ordered a lot because we wanted to try multiple items, and we are glad we did. We especially loved the Fried Yucca and Espresso Martini. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and the purchase of our first home, and they helped us make our night so special. We'll be back to try the rest of the menu!

This is our favorite place in the Berkshires. Awesome staff, incredible food in a gorgeous setting. Get the hamburguesa! It will change your life!

I couldn't think of a better way to end our afternoon at the MoCA then to grab an early dinner right on the campus. The salad was fresh, the side dishes were loaded with flavor, and there were many vegetarian options! The ice cream, which is made by another vendor in the museum that is local to the area, was exceptionally good Colan the Mexican chocolate had a nice chocolate base with a good amount of spice, and the cinnamon ice cream was loaded with flavor. The Casita patio overlooks the main museum entrance and is beautifully shaded in the early afternoon in the summer by cantilevered umbrellas. Our server was really friendly and the food came out promptly. This was a great experience for us and our guest who was visiting for the day! I am certain we will be back next time we visit the museum.

This place is a vibe!!! The decoration and ambiance is so comfortable and inviting. The small menu means that everything is made w love. Drinks were great, food was really good - everything just hit the spot. I'm so glad I found this "hole in a wall" because it really was the highlight of our trip to this area. Our server was really nice and our food was served warm and quickly. If you haven't been here yet I highly recommend it!

The ambiance here is truly adorable! I love the decor and the cute plants they have around. I really do enjoy eating Mexican food. I ordered their quesadilla it was cooked to perfect and a nice balance of meat and cheese. The tacos I ordered were pollo and carne asada. It had a nice serving of meat on the tortilla. The flavors were delicious and right amount of spice. The churros were delicious! Nice crispy with soft center. I'm not a bi g chocolate sauce person I prefer caramel but over I had a great dining experience.

I was recently with a group art tour of MassMoca and stopped at Casita for lunch. The food was amazing (what I was able to eat) until I choked on a piece of carne asada (totally my fault). The chef/owners were trained in the Heimlich maneuver and literally saved my life. I can't thank them enough and look forward to a return trip to savor their food again!

In a world of 5 stars ratings, Casita is a well deserved 6 ! The pork chops were juicy and perfect on the bed of parsnips puree. The tacos were goodness wrapped up in crunchiness, complemented by a slightly hot sauce garnished with radishes. The fried peppers left a cool glow in the mouth and their spice level fit everyone's taste.

Simply the greatest. Delicious tacos, salsas, quesadillas, sandwiches, and larger plates, but the hamburgesa reigns supreme. Fantastic cocktails and an entire team that knows the meaning of exceptional hospitality. Thank you, Casita!

The food is pretty good. Service is good. Chicken sandwich didn't have much flavor and they forgot my pickles. The water tasted like it came out of a local pond. The burger was pretty good though. Fries were not very good

This place is a gem - we're lucky to have food of this caliber in the Berkshires. I finally branched out from their fried chicken sandwich which is to die for, and had the pollo asado with greens. Fantastic. Beautiful, complex flavors on what could be such a garden variety dish. My wife had the beef tacos with consommé which were equally good.

Amazing food. The staff was very kind and accommodating. The ambience is authentic yet trendy. Overall, will def. Return to this place. Highly recommend it..

Very cool space in the Mass Moca complex. They only opened about 6 months ago - formerly a food truck. We sat at the bar and chatted with a very enthusiastic bartender. The ceviche and the pork chops were amazing! Phenomenal spicy margaritas

Every visit has been nothing short of amazing food and drinks, wonderful service, in a chill atmosphere.

There was nothing Chingona about the Chingona salad I had for lunch at Casita. The lettuce was not fresh, the dressing was bland and the extra chicken was skimpy. Service was fine and room was stylish and pleasant.

We had lunch today after touring MASS MoCA. The tacos (fish, pollo, and mushroom-poblano) were all very tasty, and it was very relaxing sitting out in the patio. I see that another poster apparently did not care for the mushroom taco, but mine was really good & flavorful. My only regret was the horchata was not particularly flavorful, so that was disappointing. Service was efficient & friendly.

Delicious and creative food. Lovely atmosphere with outstanding playlist, music not too loud for conversation early in the evening.

I really like the ambiance and decor of this restaurant, but I can't recommend the food. Tacos were both greasy and bland. We tried all four, of them the chorizo was ok, the carnitas was edible, and the mushroom/poblano and barbacoa were close to inedible. Disappointing that there was only one non-meat option. Service was sparse, host seemed stressed, and they didn't bring part of our order. Maybe dinner is better but I would skip lunch here.

Stopped in after hiking Mt Greylock. Great food great service spicy marg was actually spicy. Would recommend

Delicious food. Definitely not your run-of-the-mill Mexican place. I enjoyed a delicious goat cheese app followed by a memorable chicken entree. Ingredients were fresh and the flavors were delightful. The drink selection was interesting and proved quite tasty. Service was friendly, prompt, and welcoming. Definitely recommend this independently-owned eatery on the grounds of Mass MOCA!
