Most Liked
The warm and welcoming staff at Casa Ibérica earn rave reviews, making every visit feel special.

Most Disliked
A few patrons have noted that the restaurant can get quite busy, especially on Sundays at peak lunch hours, resulting in longer wait times. Some diners hope for the return of former menu items, notably the Broasted chicken, which has been missed by loyal customers. While the cozy setup invites a friendly atmosphere, it can also feel a bit cramped during high-traffic times. A handful of customers have wished for clearer menu descriptions to help in decision-making, particularly for newcomers unsure of where to start. Despite these minor concerns, most feedback remains overwhelmingly positive.

The service was fantastic on my first visit to Casa Iberica. The atmosphere is cozy, and the menu has a good variety of foods to choose from. My wife and I went with the wings and fish (catfish) with fries and the baleadas (with chicken). All of the food was amazing and we will definitely be back for another visit!

Stopped by for a quick bite to eat, not really sure what to expect. First step in the door, I was greeted by a super friendly employee. Didn't know what order, so I asked for recommendations--he gave me 4! I tried the Baleadas with chicken and was NOT disappointed at all. Good flavors and all the food was so fresh! Even while I was eating, every person that walked in the door was greeted like an old friend--friendly atmosphere and great tasting food. Food portion was very generous too. I'm definitely going back soon. Thanks for a great lunch!

Been wanting to try Baleadas for a while and the ones they make here are amazing (and reasonably priced).

Great experience doing pickup for the first time at this location. Business name used to be J's Fish and Chicken but now if you search that it will bring you to Minneapolis. Not sure the full story on what happened there but they still have the same menu and additional food items. The Broasted chicken is the only thing that is missing from the previous menu. Staff was very friendly and the location was full of customers. I would recommend them again in the future. Pickup food was ready in 15 minutes from when I placed the phone order.

Small but charming family owned restauraunt, the staff are friendly. They have a variety of dishes primarily Mexican and Meditteranean, very good price for a large amount of food.

I had them today. Got a few different things. They are pretty good. Right now, there is like only 1 guy working the entire restaurant now(understaffed?)no idea why. But he does a good job with the food. I give him props. Tilapia and fries, house salad and the Philly chicken sandwich.

This food was perfect. Amazing. Soooo good! Perfect for a Friday night I do not want to cook dinner meal with my boyfriend. I had their fried mushrooms, 2 catfish and shrimp meal. My boyfriend had the wings and cod meal. We both LOVED it. The guys are so nice there and while waiting they even gave us a test sample of their gyro meat! Oh trust me! We will be back for more! They are great and so is their food!
