Casa Ramos

This was a random stop today in Heber, Arizona and one we felt must be acknowledged. The food was the best that we have had in years and that includes California, Utah and Arizona. We were excited to learn of their Mesa location. Salsa and Machca beef were excellent. My only suggestion would be to spend a little more time on cleaning a few windows and you would be just about perfect. Hats off to all the staff. We will return en force!!!

Decent Mexican food. Salsa is good, little spicy. I got the 3 taco plate lunch special. Nice crispy shredded beef tacos. Meat was tasty but could use more seasoning. Rice was fluffy and beans were good. I would go back again if in the area.

Got the carne asada tacos and the meat was tough and bland. Nowhere near as good as Casa Ramos in Mesa, Az.

I eat here every time I’m in Heber. The Mexican food is not exciting, but it is the best around here. The chimichangas look more like simple burritos and are not covered with sauce. You have to ask for sour cream and guacamole, as the servers often forget (and pay extra). The rellenos are quite good, as are the beans.

Haven’t been there in a while and wanted to see just what was going on with the poor service reviews. Well I can say nothing has changed as the food and service were as expected. Friendly greeting and server with food served just as ordered. This is still a good restaurant in Heber-​Overgaard and sorely needed. Yes the lady who greets me at the entrance as yet to smile but everyone else makes up for it and the food what you expect. And for those who complain that the portions are a little smaller, we’ll be thankful as too much of restaurant prepared food is not healthy for you or me.

My wife and I know and love Mexican food. This place fit the bill in every way. Food, atmosphere, drinks and price a 10! If you are near Heber go to it simple as that.

Thanks Unilocalers for a solidly good dinner on the road. Staff here friendly. Clean restaurant and restrooms. Basic Mexican fare but seems made in house. Excellent tamales. Accommodated my son’s food allergy. Would go again.

The places I give four stars to in Heber-​Overgaard, are deserving based on their remote location and an adherence to the restaurant idiom; the customer is always right. Casa Ramos isn’t the best Mexican food I’ve hard, but it’s the best overall in the Rim Country area! They have great dishes, great flavor, competitive prices, and great service. I go by every visit to Heber!

My husband and I stopped in on a long road trip to place an order to go, but unfortunately the staff was so incredibly rude that we left before we even ordered. After walking in we were greeted by a woman who, after we told her we wanted to place an order to go, proceeded to disappear. The second gentleman strolling by mildly acknowledged us, and then also disappeared, and the third woman who approached us didn’t even look at us until she barked, «So, umm, are you ready yet?» «Oh yes are you?» «Umm yeeaaah…» Rolling her eyes was a nice touch. After that we left.

Small town restaurant, so not a lot to choose from. Good service. Food was good and a good portion. The only drawback, would be they charge you for chips & salsa after your first bowl. For the price of the entrée’s, this should be included in your meal.

Good was good, not great. Service was fast and margaritas were good! Good stop on our way down the mountain.

Excellent! Great food, service and atmosphere. So glad we could find at least one good restaurant in this area. Makes up for the bad one. Don’t want to name it but it’s no «funion»

Been coming here ford years, but tonight was horrible. Owner at front is not friendly, waiter too is not friendly. Have been waiting for food for 40 minutes. This place is getting worse. No tip tonight. And may be the last time.

Best Margaritas in town, price and quality are great. Friendly staff and good food. I always enjoy coming here.

Margaritas are amazing and we shared an appetizer. Fast service chips and salsa were good. Will definitely be back. Loved the atmosphere of restaurant had an old Mexican feel.

I guess my friends and I hit it here on a bad night. My hosts who live here said that this is the best restaurant around town — I ordered the beef tostado. It came WITHOUT BEEF! I had to send it back and wait for another to be made with beef. My friend always gets the pork carnitas. He could not eat it. It was totally inedible. We told our server how terrible it was but she couldn’t take it off our check because the manager wasn’t there. She also said that the cooks were new and didn’t understand our order or language. My other friend had a combination dish that was okay. I don’t live here but I guess they will be back and just order something else. The décor was very bright and colorful. That’s the best I can say about it.

Been coming here for a while and I notice the food portions shrinking. Less meat in the entrees and the guacamole is heavily loaded with lettuce. In addition, The service is not good, the lady at the front (owner) couldn’t care less about customer service. I ordered a beef dish and got chicken. When I told her, she just stared at me. I had to tell her I wanted the dish I ordered. By the way they now charge for chips and salsa. The first bowl is free, whether you have 1 or 6 people at your table. First Mexican restaurant I’ve been to that charges for chips and salsa…

Fast service. Great authentic Mexican food. Clean and bright interior.
I had the shredded beef. It was moist and flavorful. We will be back.

We regularly drive from our Cave Creek home to our Pinetop home and often time things so we can stop at Casa Ramos. It is Globe quality Mexican in Heber and is always, always good. We first stopped there after noticing there are always a lot of cars out front. It is very busy for good reason!
Prices are excellent. The restaurant is just plain good value. Lunch particularly so: order the daily special and two people will easily have a great meal for less than $ 20.
Excellent home made salsa, a good indicator. Excellent, friendly service, and very generous portions, always served piping hot.

Well, it’s definitely as good as it gets in Heber, that’s for sure.
We were in town for a family wedding and decided to hit up Casa Ramos prior to the ceremony. My sister wanted to go to the Red Onion, but there was nothing (and I mean NOTHING) vegetarian for me. To avoid a hissy fit, we went here instead, thanks to Unilocal.
Service was very friendly, and I liked that multiple people came by for refills on drinks, salsa (which was wonderful and spicy), etc. Our adorable teenage server knew quite a bit about the alcoholic beverages and steered us towards the Cadillac margaritas. They were delicious with the Gran Marnier floater, and you could tell they weren’t from a bottled mix.
Since a previous Unilocaler raved about the veggie fajitas, I had to go with those. She was right! The mix of mushrooms, peppers and onions were covered in lots of seasoning that really made them taste great. I was going to stop with just two servings on corn tortillas, but I went with a third one as I correctly guessed that the wedding reception wouldn’t have an actual vegetarian entrée for me. I was stuffed the rest of the day.
My brother in law got an enormous plate with three cheese enchiladas. I was surprised he finished the whole thing on his own, but he said he really liked them. The same goes for my sister’s chipotle shrimp and my dad’s chicken burrito and beef taco. Everyone was really happy with their order.
They have a second location in Mesa that I will check out soon. You can see their extensive menu on that Unilocal listing.
