Mi Casa Cantina

I stopped by Mi Casa Cantina and had a mixed experience. The service was fast and my waiter was good, which I really appreciated. The food was tasty overall, but I did find what appeared to be small bones in my carnitas, which took away from the meal. The beer was good and the location is very convenient, but the seats were uncomfortable. I won’t give up on this place because there’s potential, but this visit lands at about three stars for me.

It might as well be a McDonalds - you scan the menu with your phone and place your order for drinks and/or food that way. No human interaction at all. $5 for seltzer in a plastic cup. Oy. The salad was ok, I paid for extra black beans and corn - but I could barely tell there were beans in it at all. The dressing was good - the lettuce was fresh. $20 for that…. Well, I AM in an airport. Given the lack of options, I’d eat here again reluctantly.

Hossain was absolutely wonderful, and I LOVED my nacho bowl and spicy marg. The playlist perfectly fit the mood, and all in all was the best way to refuel and unwind during a long day of travel!

Come here for the drinks (as long as you’re ok spending $$$$ as the average cocktail is approx $27) but do not come here for the food. The waiter was nice and efficient. That’s the most positive I can give. I ordered the loaded barbacoa burrito. It is incredibly dry. The vegetables are raw and it’s bland. It listed that it had queso in it. None in sight. Not worth the $$. Salsa is cheap bottled stuff, not like a good cantina or even a decent Mexican restaurant. I was quite disappointed. The pictures actually look better than in-person. My beer was good tho. Lastly, the seats are incredibly uncomfortable. My feet and legs kept falling asleep and I couldn’t get comfortable at all. Maybe to keep people from hanging around? Either way, I wish I had checked reviews before coming here and I wouldn’t return.

I was taking a late flight at Laguardia Airport. Didn't want something heavy to eat. We just wanted a snack and a glass of wine before the flight. They have music, and it was a mellow space.

Great food Great services Great staff I will recommend this place 100 percent I feel so good about this place. Great job guys and thanks for giving me a great service.

Dear Ms. Sawlee, If you are dissatisfied with your job, I suggest considering resignation. People aretraveling for legitimate reasons, whether positive or negative, and we do not appreciate displaying a negative attitude. I sensed tension from you that was apparent to other patrons, and you did not dispute my perception. The service received was disappointing. Additionally, your upset reaction to a customer who did not specify whether she wanted salt or sugar with her margarita was unwarranted. I chose not to disclose my preference simply because I did not desire any addition. Based on my experience as a bartender, I understand that salt is typically added to such beverages. Simply serving the drink without a salt rim would have sufficed. Your behavior appeared to be influenced by an assumption that we shared a racial connection; however, as a business owner myself, I would never endorse or accept such conduct or negative energy.

The service is good, but the stools are bolted to the ground and aren't comfortable. The menu is also miniscule. I wasn't expecting a huge menu, but chips and salsa or queso would be a nice addition.

Delicious food, the Oxacan the plank was delicious mezcal cocktail and super fresh tasting. My server Sazzad took great care of me and made sure I had a great experience! I would definitely recommend this place if you're in LGA :)

Mi Casa is below average even for an airport restaurant, though the ability to order takeout online is convenient. The tacos I ordered had a limited toppings and hence were overpriced. Ever just some chopped onions would make them much better. Service is highly person dependent - the girl behind the bar didn't care at all to look for my online order, while the kitchen staff was much friendlier.

Food was marginal, dry and doesnt taste fresh. The people behind the bar are not friendly or attentive if you aren't ordering alcohol and you only eat food.

Stopped by this establishment for a margarita "to go" and take to my gate while I waited for my flight to depart. The bartender was very kind, and made a great margarita. I will definitely return to this restaurant to try the food. For now, I can recommend the margarita. . . It was pretty tasty.

Zero star! Worse service ever. I saw a man with 2 kids and the kids sat there at the bar area, bar stools off the right so I think maybe they allow kids since it is close to the gate. We stopped there around 3 PM with 2 kids. We sat about 5 mins. One of the server the man with black long hair and make up. He/she said my kids were not allowed at the bar. I said to him why that family with kids can sit there. He said " I don't know". He was rude and had an attitude. If you work behind the bar and you do not know I don't think you should work there as an employee I am sure every place has the same standard or rules. I even said to him twice what about that family he does not care. Bad service! I just went to the restaurant across to them because those people have better service. 01/05/25

Stopped in for a small overpriced beer - but the lemon I didn't want comes free - refrained from ordering beer because of what I saw around me and the Yelp reviews. But the music is what drove me away my God it could turn you mad .

Zero stars! I sent the horrible tacos as back and then they still put them on my bill, claimed they needed a manager to take it off the bill? But once I complained and got loud then it came off the bill. Their idea of tacos is shredded iceberg with a touch of meat. No cheese, no salsa, no guacamole, and add no sour cream. All I got was a bad attitude when I sent inedible food back. Will never go here again. Bad service too.

Great place to mingle before or after your flight! I got an espresso martini, it was lovely! Our server hossain was playing throwback jams and let us sing along. Definitely stop by if you are at LGA

Food is stale and majorly overpriced. Kids can't sit in the main area. Drinks are very weak but look nice. Service is amiable.

Came in and ordered before my flight. The cook had very offensive music playing. I done want to her the n word in the music or the f**k word either. Your employees need to understand that there are small children that come through this airport and they don't need to hear that type of offensive music either. I Bought it the attention of the manager and cashier. I was told it was the cooks personal speaker. I'm a firm believer in letting your employees listen to their music, but when it becomes offensive and I can hear that type of language being used in the music while I'm trying to eat, I find that very unacceptable. Very disappointed in the way your employees handled my situation when I brought it to their attention, especially your manager. Trust me, I will never come back here again.

Smell was incredibly enticing as I got off my plane in terminal B. Chose the Pollo Nachos, they were ok. About what you'd expect in an airport. The bartender, Hossain, was fantastic and definitely knows how to mix an Old Fashioned. It was even worth the crazy airport prices.

Ontario Airport food is bad. Ordered a steak bowl$17.99 kids size and no good, meat dry, no flavor terrible. Do not eat here.

The customer service on 10/31/2024 was subpar. The bartender/server was rude and dismissive. She displayed an unwelcoming demeanor and had a rude disposition.

Honestly the nastiest food at this airport. I paid $45 for cold nachos in a plastic bowl and a small drink. I couldn't even eat it. Left and went to another place close by. Cheaper and 100% better. 10/10 don't recommend this dump. And server was horrible.

Food was okay, but bland. Decent portions for airport food. Chips and salsa were clearly Tostitos and Pace, decanted. Service was decent. Music and seating gave the impression that they didn't want you to stay; music was not pleasant and seats were uncomfortable.

The music is too loud and hard to find a bartender in the morning. This place also doesn't offer coffee, at any price, for a weary or hungover traveler. Loud music and a bad bartender setting up the morning bar don't mix well in an airport of expensive airline tickets in a financial based city

Not bad for airport food but could be better. Tacos were spicy even though they did not state they were. They put tomatoes in the cheese quesadillas which was odd. They have a good selection of beer and the decor and atmosphere is inviting. Service is pretty quick.

Attitude and food goes hand in hand!!! Angel is by far the rudest person I have encountered in a long time. The food is just ok nothing special. I won't be coming back to this establishment

Traveling & wanted to grab breakfast that I can eat on my limited diet & a mimosa It's just a walk up bar type place & the people working there were nice & attentive. I was able to order the breakfast bowl minus the queso & cheese sauce ($11.99) & it was a pretty big bowl & it came out quick! The eggs looked a little suspicious like they were powdered eggs, but they didn't taste like it. I think the eggs were microwaved, not a huge deal, the pico was fresh & it was filling. What we had a hard time with is that the drinks were outrageous! $12.99 for draft, $22 margaritas & $18.99 mimosas. REALLY?! Even the cost of the wine was what a whole bottle would cost. I can't see us coming back when traveling.

This is pretty bad, even for an airport restaurant. Sadly this area of Terminal B doesn't offer much. I should've grabbed something closer to security. I had a question about the menu but the person working refused to acknowledge me and told me I had to order via QR code. Half the stuff on the menu you could specify no cheese, but for some other ones you couldn't, but it didn't make sense. One burrito you could but another with a different meat (everything else the same) you couldn't. The cocktails at $22 are absolutely ridiculous. It tastes awful too so please don't bother treating yourself because it's not a treat. The tacos were bad. I could not hold one. The steak tasted so old and microwaved. The tortillas fell apart as soon as I tried to pick it up. I ordered a side of guacamole which was $4 and it was the smallest condiment takeout container. It sucks that they know they can provide horrible food because they're the one of the only restaurants around.

Nothing special about this place but I can't say it was bad either. I got the barbacoa bowl, which was ok. Would have been better if they'd added salsa or something. I wanted one of the beers they had on tap but they said they didn't have it; I got the impression none of the taps worked and they only had bottled beers. It's just as well. This place is expensive. My bowl was $16. Beers were around $10 and mixed drinks were around $20. Only in New York, I guess. I ended up getting a [$4] Pepsi but they never refilled my drink. As expensive as the place was, it's par for the course for places on the concourse. Not thrilled, but what are you going to do? So it wasn't great, but not as bad as the other reviews make it out to be.

Slowwwwww service. No one can multitask! Store bought bag chips ( they brought them from the back lol). Ordered nachos. Clearly stated black beans. Had to ask for them. Clear says cheese. Had to ask for cheese! 5 people. No one knows how to manage service. Walk down the concourse and pick another bar/food. Beer was SMALL!! For Getting next to no cheese we paid four dollars for extra cheese! One beer and some nachos was $37

Looks nice. However, I got there, and the food was overpriced for what was something that tasted that came out of the freezer and very small portion and Well, there is no customer service. The server took my order and brought it and never came back. I had to go and look for him for condiments, water and the bill.

Every time I come to LGA I stop and see Florence at Mi Casa, she makes the BEST margaritas in NY! The service and the drinks were well beyond what I expected from an airport restaurant!

Well, this is about as good as you would think a Mexican restaurant in a New York airport would be. I asked for a negra modelo and it took them 10 minutes to tell me they didn't have it and they tried to serve me a modelo especial without asking if it was ok. I asked for another beer and they said they only had 3 beers right now. And look at these $10 chips and salsa that came from a bag and a jar. Oooof, I wish I wasn't first to review or I'd have stayed away.

Flor made us the most AMAZING margaritas and was such a joy--we didn't even mind our flight getting delayed!

Got 2 bowls to go ($17+ each) and they wanted $1.50 for any individual sauce. I didn't get any since I had already paid. The bowls had a good amount of meat but they were VERY VERY DRY. Poor customer service...you couldn't just give me a couple of sauces??!!!

At 339 pm 11/28/2022 my husband I stopped for a beer to watch the soccer match. I was sitting on one of the stools and it broke off (snapped off). I fell quickly to the ground. I could not get up as I injured my left arm and leg. The bartender did not so much as even communicate with us or see if I was OK. My husband got me up and I proceeded to sit at our gate which was close by. To note I only weigh 125# so the stool was not under undue stress. It was shocking that the staff did not react. My husband left the stool seat on top of the bar. SHOCKING customer service. My family is truly upset by this incident. My arm and leg are black and blue and it was a shocking and honestly humiliating experience. Would love to hear from Mi Casa Cantina- I am sure they can view the incident on one of the many cameras at the airport. Posting one of the arm pics. Cannot post leg due to location.

7-11 quality food Seriously, same chips and queso you'd get at 7-11 or the movie theater but with a $14 price point. Margarita pretty solid. People who work here are nice. But hard pass on the food.

This place needs to be razed and start over with new staff. They are out of pretty much everything. And what they do have is expensive and the best food a microwave can reheat. Oh and you get to deal with rude staff, swarm of fruit flies and a slow microwave. If Sweelen would get off her phone and stop complaining about everything to customers that would be swell. 1 oz shot of Bourbon is $15.50! Chips and cheese is $13. $51 for chips, empanada, shot, Pepsi Fuck this place. Sadly there is no better options. Just get a cold sandwich and call it a day.

Airport food has never been great, expectations are low but this place is something else. You order a taco or burrito and you get tons of lettuce, rice and very little meat. It's a shame because the place is well put together, staff is cordial and bar selection is fine. I order the Cochinita Pibil burrito dish and it has nothing to do with Pibil. It was plain pork, rice and beans - a total disgrace. No taste whatsoever. Owner: invest a bit on your menu and you would have the place packed Vs. a very empty location. Frequent travelers will return if you are good, if not you'll get the occasional tourist. I'm sure the rent is price at LGA, be smart !

Flor is amazing, margaritas really hit! Dndjdkdkdndndjdjdjdjfjfjfjfjfjnfjfjfjjfjfjfjfjfj

Even for an airport bar, this place is insanely overpriced with terrible service. The food is no better than a Moe's Southwest Grill and served with even less presentation and flavor.

The bartender, Jose, was friendly with a packed bar. We ordered the prickly pear margarita and the winter wonderland bourbon drink. Drinks are good, a bit pricey but good. Food was delicious- chicken and cheese quesadilla. The pico was spicey but perfect. The music was very upbeat and made me want to dance after my margarita kicked in. Would stop here again if we go to B terminal.

En lo que esperaba mi vuelo, decidimos pedir en Mi Casa Cantina la Guardia,y sin dudas ha sido una de las mejores Margaritas que he tomando!Nos atendió FLOR,sin dudas nos hizo sentir en casa.Super recomendado y las Carnitas Quesadilla...super super super recomendado!

We met Paloma or Paloma's by Flor who was a true professional and made us feel at home! Flying American never felt so good because of Flor and Mi Casa! Gracias!!!

The food is reminiscent of school cafeteria lunch. It is bland, unseasoned and overpriced which leaves much to be desired along with the service. Such condescending tones when asked why it cost $84 for Velveeta cheese sauce, two drinks frozen empanadas.

From what I observed, the staff here hates their jobs and have absolutely no incentive to care. I can't imagine how horrible management must be to create an environment where it just doesn't matter. The QR code ordering system doesn't seem to work bc my order never showed.

Terrible service - at least the lady who was there at around 4 pm today on July 20 2022. I waited and she refused to serve or acknowledge me so I tried to grab her attention very politely. In response, instead of apologizing, she screamed at me in front of everyone else- I walked away and went to bar veloce instead which was an entirely different experiene with wonderful service! Do not recommend

Terrible service. On 7/12 at 11:45pm I sat for 20 minutes and never had a bartender even inquire what I might want. The female bartender was more busy chatting with customers than serving. Won't even consider this place when flying through.

If you're looking for a $17 burrito with minimal meat and crunchy, undercooked rice, have I got the place for you! Yes I know, it's Covid. Yes I know, airport food. That notwithstanding, they're charging top dollar for pure mediocrity, and they should be ashamed. Better yet, they should fix it.

Do not waste your money. The food is gross and very expensive. The workers were good though

Alex was amazing and fast on every order. The receipt says terminal A but we are in terminal B. Nothong wrong with it I just want to make sure he gets the appreciation he deserves. When you come here, get Alex. About out to the cooks because the food was amazing as well.

As a rule the one thing an airport bar or restaurant must be is quick. People generally don't have time to waste. The servers at this bar are slow and uninterested in actually serving. Bad combination.

How do you make a wait at the airport more miserable? "Try" to get food or drinks from Mi Casa. The staff are lazy rude and incompetent. After ignoring a simple drink order, ignoring the lady next to me trying to get a margarita and not checking on food order for lady on other side, the waiter huffed and puffed about staffing in the back (he can make drinks when not doing his nails). shut this down or restaff.

Pretty gross. Do not waist your money on the chips and dip. Yuck. Tastes like cheese you'd have at a baseball game. Not worth $13.99 for them open up a can of cheese and pour it into a plastic cup. The server wasn't very happy when we said we weren't pleased. Didn't offer to refund us but to give us more salsa which is also not made in house, we didn't want anymore salsa. It's from a bottle! Bleh! Nothing is special about this place. I could have made everything I ate at home... I'm a terrible cook! Customer service is very poor & practically nonexistent.

I usually don't eat when flying through NYC cause the airport food is outrageously priced and not very good. Figured since I had a 3 hour layover, I would give it a shot...now I remember why I usually pass on food here. Had the chicken tacos, which were very bland and were sitting in a liquid getting soggy when they arrived. Overpriced of course. There was a good hazy IPA on tap and the server was nice, but the food quality and price were no bueno.

Even for an airport restaurant, this is inexcusable. As typical at an airport, both the food and drink are vastly overpriced, $13 for a beer or low-end wine, only slightly less than an entree. The inexcusable part is the lack of cleanliness, the surly attitude of the staff, the portion size, and lack of flavor. We wound up here for probably the same reason everyone else there did, lack of options for a sit-down restaurant. Worst meal I've had in a long time.

Nothing in our order was good. The chicken burrito was 90% rice, and some of that was crunchy. The chicken quesadilla was cold and wet. The beef empanadas were small and doughy rather than crispy, and they forgot the sides. The guacamole (which had blender consistency) was actually tasty but a tiny portion is $13.
