    Took the granddaughters to lunch prior to the play at the Cygnet - nice walk to restaurant and the staff were attentive and the food excellent. Such a lively fun place to have lunch prior to Rocky Horror!!

    Phylicia we are more than thrilled that you and your granddaughters had such a wonderful time with us! Delicious food, superb service, and a fun atmosphere sound like a great way to start a fun afternoon before Rocky Horror :) "Let's do the Time Warp again!" and come back next time you're in Old Town!

    Can’t complain about the savoury food, but the Churros were dripping with oil. Our waitress was the friendliest person before she got her tip then completely ignored us and we had to ask 3 times for our complimentary churros (which weren’t worth the wait). Better to be genuine when serving customers.
    Casa De Freds, Tacos y TequilaResponded on August 1, 2024
    Peter thank you so much for taking the time for leaving a review. We are so happy that you enjoyed your meal with us but we apologize about the churros! We will definitely bring this to our kitchen's attention! We will look into your experience and service...would you mind reaching out to us with specifics including the time and date that you dined with us so we can address the appropriate staff? Look forward hearing from you Peter.

    Great spot to meet friends, and kid friendly. Wish they had a quesadilla option, but the tacos are large.
    Casa De Freds, Tacos y TequilaResponded on August 1, 2024
    Hey there Dave! We're thrilled you had a great time with us! Yes the tacos are delicious but our quesadillas are hidden under the appetizers - we promise we have them next time you join us! See you next time amigo!

    Brandon did a great job. I appreciate that Ray was involved in our group and came and introduced himself. The hostess was very professional also. The food was great and the drinks awesome. My group really enjoyed the visit.

    When we first went in, it was a bit too noisy for us, two old people in our mid 70’s, but Raymond, the manager, found us a table that was a lot quieter. I’m glad we stayed because the food, the service, and the margaritas were outstanding. We will return!
    Casa De Freds, Tacos y TequilaResponded on July 15, 2024
    With management like Raymond you are definitely in good hands! We are so happy that you enjoyed your visit with us and were moved to a more comfortable table for you to spend the time with us :) Even more amazing is the food and service as well as the margaritas being nothing short of spectacular! We are so grateful for you leaving us a review and hope to see you soon!! Gracias!
