Revisiting (and revisiting) Casa Quesadilla

As a food blogger (just amateur!), I try to eat in different places and rarely go back to those I've blogged about. But Casa Quesadilla is such a gem of a restaurant that I keep coming to back to it. In fact, I've been here five times since I first visited last year and I've brought my family, friends and co-workers. 
This favorite foodie place of mine is just a small one on the far end of Maginhawa St. if coming from Elliptical Road, already near Anonas in Quezon City. It's so small that there are only three tables inside plus two outside. Though small in size, it's a biggie when it comes to taste! Mexican food here is so good and so much better than in some other similar restaurants. What's more, servings are huge and prices 
won't burn a hole in your pocket! 
In my first post December last year about Casa Quesadilla, I shared about their tacos, nachos, burrito and beef quesadilla. When I came back a few months later, 
I found out they'd added a few more items to their menu. 
Wow, more things for the palate to enjoy! 
Since the first revisit and till the latest last Friday, we've had: 

Mexican beef quesadilla, P149.
Four-cheese quesadilla, P149.

Mexican beef burrito, P165.
Pizzadilla, P179
Mexican beef crispy tacos, P95.

Fish soft tacos. P125.
Macho Nachos, P160.
                                Grilled pork belly with rice meal with chimichurri sauce, P150.
Sola iced tea, P70.

All my family and friends who I've brought to Casa Quesadilla loved the food and the big servings. We've never left half-full but full to the brim! In a number of times when we were twosome, we'd order a taco each and share an order of beef quesadilla. One time I had the pizzadilla which is really quesadilla topped with pizza sauce, chorizo, pepperoni, mozzarella and olives. 
It's finger-lickin' good! 
Folks, you gotta try Casa Quesadilla. Wherever you're coming 
from, it's sure to be worth the trip.
Happy eating!

Maginhawa St. Gastronomic Walk #4: Casa Quesadilla

Last time, I shared about our delicious lunch at Cafe Quezon on Maginhawa St., that long stretch of a road in Quezon City that has grown famous because of the so many restaurants that have opened up there over the years. As we were there waiting for our order, I looked out through the glass door and saw another foodie place on the other side of the road - Casa Quesadilla - and I said to my daughter, "Next week, we're there." And so it was that exactly seven days after, we were on Maginhawa St. again, in Casa Quesadilla and feasted on - what else - Mexican food! This is a charming place - really small (only four tables) but cheery because of the dominant orange color of the interiors and two colorful art works painted on the wall. Too bad my camera memory card got corrupted and some of my shots vanished, including those of the interiors of Casa Quesadilla. Good thing my food shots remained. These were our orders:


Ultimate Nachos, P130.
Mexican beef burrito, P130. 
Crispy Tacos, P75. each

So how was our Mexican food trip? Deliciously great! The nachos, tacos, quesadilla and burrito were all yummy but for me, the quesadilla was the standout . The bits of beef had the perfect blend of spices for a burst of flavors, nicely intertwined with the creaminess of cheese. Yummy! No wonder the restaurant itself was named after their quesadilla. I wanted to try their dessert quesadilla with banana and Nutella but alas, we didn't have any room left for it. We were full to the brim! It was too late to realize we 
ordered more than we could eat. Haha! 
Folks, I suggest that you visit Casa Quesadilla at 176 Maginhawa St., Sikatuna Village in Quezon City for their delicious and very affordable Mexican food. You won't regret the trip!
Happy eating, everyone!
