Casa De Catrina (Mexican - Carle Place, New York)

In case you didn't know, National Margarita Day was on February 22nd, which was this past Sunday, and over the weekend, I got to celebrate at Casa De Catrina in Carle Place, out on Long Island. Walking into the restaurant, I was amazed by the ambiance of this place, from the upbeat music, bright colors and decor, and the friendly staff and service.

Between the flavors, board presentation, and tajin rims, I know this is calling your name

Starting off, I of course had to try their 'Margarita Flight,' which comes with five flavors: tamarind, passionfruit, mango, cucumber, and hibiscus. All the flavors were fantastic; however, the tamarind one was probably my favorite, and I was told that it was a favorite here.

The 'Spicy Mezcalita' looks as amazing as it tastes

Now, you can get the flight and all the cocktails here, virgin, without any alcohol. I did have the virgin flight; however, I could not taste the difference!

The 'Raspberry Lemon Martini'...more like Oh Yeah!

On top of that, I tried the 'Spicy Mezcalita,' the 'Tamarind Margarita,' the 'Raspberry Lemon Martini,' and the 'Strawberry Mojito.' The mojito was the only drink I had with alcohol in it.   However, the taste was on point with all of these! Sweet, refreshing, and simply good.

Look at how refreshing the 'Tamarind Margarita' is!

The 'Tamarind Margarita' once again won me over! Plus, the presentations on all these drinks, including the flight was just phenomenal!!!

Strawberry & mojitos do go hand-in-hand

Now moving over to food, I started with the 'Nachos Catrina' and 'Catrina Chicken Quesadillas.' The nachos were my favorite thing I ate as they were amazing!! Definitely recommend ordering these when coming to Casa De Catrina! These were piled with refried beans, ground beef, melted cheese, jalapenos, sour cream, pico de gallo, and guacamole. My mouth was drooling, and I could not get enough of these, as they were addictive!

Can't think of anything more perfect other than the 'Nachos Catrina'

The quesadillas had chicken, melted Jack, jalapenos, sour cream, and guacamole. These were pretty tasty, and I was obsessed with the presentation!

Loved the presentation of the 'Chicken Catrina Quesadillas'

For the main meal, I tried their 'Beef Birria Tacos,' 'Pollo Poblano,' and 'Shrimp Enchiladas Verdes Y Rojas.' Out of all three, the tacos were my favorite, as they were juicy and flavorful with the beef and cheese. But at this point, you know how much I love birria tacos.

Are we surprised I was obsessed with these 'Beef Birria Tacos'?!

The 'Pollo Poblano' was half of a dark rotisserie chicken served over mole poblano sauce and cilantro rice on the side. The rice was excellent, and the sauce was to die for! It was pretty sweet, but a little tangy.

The 'Pollo Poblano' is literal perfection on a plate!

The enchiladas were really good, as I loved the green chile sauce. Now, if you love shrimp and seafood, this dish is perfect for you! This did taste good; however, I was not crazy about this combination.

The 'Shrimp Enchiladas Verdes Y Rojas' were just as fantastic as they looked

Impressed by how tasty this 'Cilantro Rice' was
