Casita Tejas Mexican Restaurant

Unless you live in Homestead, there are few reasons to venture so far south other than for incredible, inexpensive, authentic Mexican food. If you do happen to make the trek, Casita Tejas is where you go for dishes that meet all three criteria. Some of the most popular items on the menu include sauce-smothered enchiladas, chimichangas with various types of fillings and chile relleno—a stuffed bell pepper with intense flavors and a spicy kick. No order here would be complete without a side of refried beans—the standout of all meals eaten at Casita—or a helping of their fresh salsa made with Homestead tomatoes.
