Having grown up in Texas, I was slightly disappointed by the Mexican food offerings in the area, that is, until I found Su Casa in Issaquah. After a five year search, I was in dire need of some good Mexican food and, I assure you, Su Casa does not disappoint.
Annabelle and Robert, the owners, make this family friendly, casual restaurant feel like home. They're typically taking orders and doing the serving, alongside their children on any given afternoon or evening. Come in, find a place to sit and get ready for the best Mexican food in the Seattle metropolitan area.
Aside from their tasty salsa, which they bring to your table when you arrive, the Gordo plate is a big hit. It is a dish of homemade flour tortillas (YUM!) stuffed with two items of your choosing -- anything from chicken with cheddar cheese to their specialty, carne guisada with lettuce and tomato. You can also go vegetarian with this item by combining potatoes and onions or scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Any combo you like, and the list is long.
I have also heard that the fajitas and the tacos are a hit. I have no doubt that anything you try at Su Casa will exceed your expectations.
After you've stuffed yourself silly, try to fit the fried ice cream in the little space you have left. It's scrumptious!
Enjoy!
