Hello, I am Israel Castillo, the founder, owner, and Chef at La Casita Olvera in Foothill Ranch. Inspired by the rich culinary traditions of my family, I dreamed of opening my own restaurant from a young age. Growing up, I was captivated by the aromas of fresh menudo and the meticulous selection of spices and ingredients, knowing we were making our Abuelita proud by sharing these authentic flavors with others.

Passing thru town we spotted this places....wanted to try it and then will double back for brunch eventually. A little steep price wise but you know what?.....food was quality! Me and the Mrs were a little nervous but were not disappointed. Server: nice and pleasant, and very attentive to getting us what we needed.....she forgot my hot sauce but she was so awesome we were all able to laugh it off, tell a joke and get back to it. We really appreciated her. Food: everything tasted fresh and well seasoned, hot! Very much enjoyed everything we ate! The Mrs had a lemon drop that she enjoyed and I had the mango blended margarita. No complaints. Seating: weather was nice so we sat outside. Restaurant was clean, outside was clean.....we enjoyed our time outside! Can't wait to try their brunch on Sundays

My birthday lunch with my coworkers at La Casita Olvera was absolutely delightful! We went on Taco Tuesday, and let me tell you, the tacos were delicious! The ambience of the restaurant is wonderful, creating a fun, warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were all incredibly kind and attentive, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. It’s a very nice location with good food and a great vibe—I thoroughly loved every moment. Highly recommended!

The first time here, let me say service was top notch!! Food, even though it was limited it was delicious. They need bacon and sausage. Their mimosas for 2 hrs was great! Wish they also included pineapple juice. I am allergic to cranberry, and orange juice makes me sick. Wish they had deferment Seafood options.! Service and food 2ad outstanding
