Positives: the atmosphere here is very nice. The restaurant is very spacious and very colorful.

The vegetarian soup had great flavor, however I wish it had more substance to it for the price. There were only the four cubes of cheese, half an avocado, and the rest was filled with the tortillas. It was tasty but I took it home to make breakfast tacos with the broth since it is on the thicker side. Now with that said, would I get it again? Yes, if I were in the mood for it, but I would probably ask for the tortillas on the side.

The vegetable enchiladas were yummy- Everything was a little salty (just a personal preference some people may like as is) but the restaurant was not skimpy on the filling. There were plenty of vegetables (a nice variety) and as you can see, the portion size of everything was plentiful.

Negatives: The fish dish was a major flop. The vegetables didn’t have much flavor and the fish had a “fishy” taste. (tilapia) but we couldn’t get past the fishy note so we sent it back. Staff was understanding and did let us know it was fresh fish (which we did appreciate them telling us this) and they took it off our bill.

They seem to have a lot of authentic foods on the menu which is appreciated since a lot of places carry what the typical American may prefer, but I do plan on going back to try their paella.

Our family dined here and really enjoyed everything! The beautiful decor, authentic food, festive drinks, and friendly service made for a great experience. Recommend the guacamole. This place is tucked away and almost hidden, but definitely check out!

Delicious, freshly made in house Mexican food. Great margaritas and mixed drinks. Staff was friendly and helpful. A pleasant place to get dinner with the family or a simple bite at the bar.

This place is way bigger inside than it looks on the outside. Great vibes and delicious food. Our waiter was very friendly, and our drinks were so good. We will definitely be going back to Casa Kahlo!

Casa Kahlo has been a breath of fresh air—it’s rare to find such thoughtfully authentic Mexican food and drinks right here in Newark, Delaware. Every dish we’ve tried has been bursting with bold, rich flavor and served in generous portions (you’ll likely be leaving with leftovers!). The quality is consistently top-notch, and the passion behind the food truly shines through.

As the restaurant continues to grow, adding new cooks and staff, I’d just encourage a continued focus on consistency to maintain the high standards they’ve clearly set. That said, I’ve never had a personal issue—nor witnessed one—that wasn’t immediately and professionally addressed by the attentive team. Their menu is ambitious and robust, and I applaud them for always striving to get it right.

Now let’s talk drinks: the cocktails at Casa Kahlo are next level. Yes, some of the specialty drinks may be priced slightly above what you’d find at other spots, but the quality justifies every penny. The handcrafted margaritas and cocktails are beautifully presented, generously poured, and taste as incredible as they look, with REAL, quality ingredients. And if you’re watching your tab, there’s also a solid selection of well-priced beers and seltzers to keep things budget-friendly.

Beyond the dining experience, Casa Kahlo transforms into one of the most vibrant nightlife spots in the area. Between live music, DJs, and themed events, there’s always something going on —and the energy on the dance floor is electric. The crowd skews younger during the school year, but it’s a welcoming and inclusive environment where I’ve always felt comfortable and at home, no matter the time of day.

Lastly, a special shoutout to Justin, one of Casa Kahlo’s standout bartenders. His warm smile and infectious energy make every visit memorable. He’s a true artist behind the bar and takes real pride in his craft. Honestly, every staff member I’ve met has been kind, welcoming, and committed to making sure guests leave full, happy, and already planning their next visit.

I always walk out of Casa Kahlo feeling better than when I walked in—and that’s something truly special. Thank you to the Casa Kahlo family!

resumen en español:
Casa Kahlo es una joya en Newark, Delaware, que ofrece comida mexicana auténtica, deliciosa y con porciones generosas. Sus cócteles artesanales, especialmente las margaritas, son excepcionales y bien valen su precio. El ambiente es acogedor tanto de día como de noche, con una vida nocturna vibrante que incluye música en vivo y eventos temáticos. El personal, especialmente Justin en la barra, siempre ofrece un servicio cálido y atento. ¡Un lugar al que siempre da gusto volver!

The food is always so delicious. Took my dad here for the 1st time and he had shrimp stir fry and let me tell you, he cleaned up his plate. We joked with the waiter who was amazing the the food was bad and he looked at the plate and laughed with us cause he knew we loved it lol. I had the chicken mofongo and my drink a coquito. SO YUMMY that I was literally dancing in my seat haha. It a 10/10 for me. The place and decor is an experience, so colorful and represents Frida 100%.
