Mi Casa is a story of family, of multi-generations dedicated to good food and festive times. Over 50 years ago, my grandfather, Barrie Moore, opened the doors at Mi Casa. Ever since, our family has been serving up hearty portions of Sonoran-style Mexican food to a devoted following. Our hacienda-style, family-friendly Orange County eatery has thrived thanks to our wonderful customers and our ever-so-tasty dishes made with fresh and authentic ingredients. All the traditional Mexican favorites are available, from tacos, enchiladas, tamales, taquitos, chile rellenos, and any combination thereof. I invite you to visit our family-owned, independent restaurant upon your next trip to the Newport Beach/Costa Mesa, CA, area!
Guests dig into cheesy Mexican favorites & margaritas in a festive space with ample booth seating.

Big plates, good prices and great service. Hadn’t been here in for a couple of years. I’m happy to say it’s still the same great restaurant. It didn’t disappoint.

Mexican food, very delicious, they’ve remodeled, place is very open and bright, I had a combo meal, Baja fish taco my husband had the taco, the amount of food you received is very generous, but they have always been that way, I definitely recommend the sauteed zucchini.

The food portions are great, with the veggie burrito being very good!
The guacamole appetizer, although a gigantic portion seemed a bit over priced and was just kind of thrown at us, rather than sold to us, since the chips and salsa were just average.
It is definitely a family oriented type atmosphere, nice and cozy but trying to get out of there or any service is going to take you forever, so plan for spending an extra unwanted 30 minutes just waiting around.
We went right before the dinner rush with only half the restaurant occupied, yet the service was incredibly slow, it took us at least 5-10 minutes before we could ever find our server on each occasion (getting to go boxes, the check, additional napkins etc). I’d recommend ordering take out/calling ahead if you’re ever short on time. Sit down will take a while.

After driving around we found this great Mexican restaurant in Newport Beach. We had the 3 item combos. It was delicious. The portions were huge. Big bowl of chips and lots of salsa. Our waitress was very nice. Prices are reasonable. The cozy interior had Christmas decorations up. My relatives visiting from Vancouver were stuffed. This is a hidden gem!

So check it out, I have been visiting this restaurant since I was in diapers.
Over the years they’ve had a couple different locations but this is the original and my favorite. The owners are great people and I’ve enjoyed watching the evolution of the different family members run the restaurant over the past 40+ years. I remember going in this place back when grandpa ran it, then his children were always at the front counter and created such an awesome environment. Nowadays it’s run by I guess you could say the grandson and a group of awesome managers that really make you feel like family. The waitresses and the bartenders and even the bus boys wave to you when you walk in the door.
The food is really good, not like other Mexican restaurants in the area, it’s very unique!
If you’ve lived in Costa Mesa long enough there seems to be a cross town rivalry between MiCasa and El Matador and I think it’s safe to say that you either like one or the other and to my knowledge there’s not very many people that like both . I am a MiCasa person and I will eat here 2 to 3 times a month, we always like to sit in the Burro Room where the environment is lots of fun and full of really cool unique people.
If this is your first time visiting this restaurant I would highly recommend the chicken fajitas, I wish they would put more onions in the fajitas and less peppers but I still order the fajitas 90% of the time. You can’t go wrong with crispy shredded beef taco, the enchiladas are good and what makes this place really stand out is there guacamole, chips and cheese and the case of dip. Now let’s talk about the margaritas, the margaritas are awesome and the waitress staff and the bartenders really do a good job keeping everybody happy.
I wish they had a couple big TVs, the TVs that are in the burro room aren’t the greatest but I heard a rumor that a remodel is coming soon.
Bottom line is if you’ve never been to MiCasa I highly recommend you pay this place a visit. I’m not even gonna tell you about their secret salsa because I’m not sure they want me to mention it but damn it’s good . I’ve been telling the owner for years to make a trio plate where you can get what I call the secret salsa, a little bit of queso and a little bit of their guac because again I think it’s their guac and the queso that makes his place stand out from all the other Mexican restaurants in the city.

Looks great with the update. Food tastes awesome. This place gives me flask backs to an old place we used to eat at in Anaheim called Mexi Casa. Simple, great food and awesome prices.

Very old school with lots of history. The people who frequent here also have lots of history. It’s been opened for half a decade and the tables have faded where they put the plates down. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. Our waiter was very nice, he kept our chip basket full and our sodas fresh and filled. Very large portions of food too!

Great food! It’s like having your abuela’s comfort food! Great for catering parties! The fiesta pack options are awesome for parties, get togethers, or anything in between! I highly recommend mi casa for dining in or having people over. The chiliquilas are the BEST I’ve ever had!

We had the entire room for an event. The margaritas were kept flowing, the menu was perfect for the group. The food came out quickly, was fresh and delicious. Definitely would go back

One of our all time favorites for large gatherings. They always accommodate our family gatherings of between 10- 15 people with no issues. The food is always enjoyable and the salsa is excellent. We always get chips and salsa to go, so that we have some to enjoy at home.
