One of our favorite spots in town!
This little restaurant has great quality food and a wonderful family atmosphere. It feels like the little spots I grew up going to eat at.
Not only is the food wonderful (some of my favorites being the enchiladas and flautas), but their service is absolutely incredible!
The staff is so incredibly kind and welcoming. It only took a few visits to turn this place into a regular spot!
If you’re around and haven’t tried out Castillo’s, you’re definitely missing out!

I visited for lunch with work colleagues. We sat outside, but we could still hear and watch the interior TV show.
Food arrived hot, good sized portions. Drinks were refilled quickly.
Free parking in the shopping center lot. Plenty of spots available.
Solid lunch spot, not very unique or fast.

The food was pretty bland and their bar was not set up so they had a premix margarita which was terrible. My mother did say the quesadilla was the best she has had. She is elderly and doesnt like spice.

4 stars for this visit. My first visit.
They have indoor and outdoor seating. And inside is nice, spacious, and clean.
You start off with chips and salsa. The kind of salsa that’s very mild and more like sauce. Not chunky tomato.
Fish tacos are ridiculously amazing. Grilled not battered and fried. Delicious. Moist. Some nice salsa and special sauce on top. Two are way enough to fill you up along with the very good Spanish rice and retired beans. Both moist. Food came out piping hot.
The Chile verde was also delicious. The way they make the sauce is amazing. Again piping hot and delish beans and rice.
Very courteous service. Lots of parking
Updated Dec’23: Really like Castillo’s. This time I had a combination with tostada and flauta, both shredded beef of course. And the fish tacos again. I really loved both dishes.
Updated July 2023: I’m forever recommending Castillo‘s. In my opinion It’s the best Mexican restaurant in this area of this type. The combination plate has many selections. I chose enchilada and burrito and always the shredded beef. The Chile Verde is also incredible. The sauce is so good. The supreme burrito is pretty huge and you’re going to be super full when you’re done with it. They have the thick style tortilla chips to start off with and extremely yummy salsa sauce. And lastly, pretty much every time I have come, the service has been really friendly, although I admit a little slow because they get very busy.
August 2025 update:
I still love their food and portion size. It was a little slow to take our order this visit but fast to get the food to us. I notice they started charging for the chips and salsa which used to be complimentary. Sign of the times I guess. I love the carnitas ands enchiladas. Tastes so good. That’s includes the rice and beans!

Food was okay but nothing spectacular. Value was the biggest detriment. Never been charged for chips/salsa at another Mexican restaurant, plus portion sizes were disappointing. Overall felt like an overpriced experience

I will not be back. Cinco de Mayo experience was lackluster. Crowded, with little airflow (picture everyone eating in one hot room) & no privacy. If you are sitting at a table in the middle, everyone watches you and can easily hear your conversation. Music was faint. Took forever for service and taco salad came out burned. Never got a refill on water. $21 for shrimp cocktail & $16.50 for a taco salad??? Staff was trying their best, but overall seemed short staffed:/

We actually wanted to go to Bill’s Cafe. But it was to crowded. So we came here. Been here before for breakfast. Real nice place and friendly service. Never crowded for breakfast. Food was amazing. The chips and salsa was perfect for me. Not to hot and spicy. Come here often. Wanted to try lunch. Have an excellent lunch special menu. Just good food and great atmosphere
