What people say, in short
Diners recommend Casa Enrique for its food, drinks and setting. One advises ordering the chamorro, and another ranks it among favorite taco restaurants. Dissent includes a diner who finds it average and expensive and another who thinks it has declined. Two others are mixed: one likes the mole but not the rest of the meal, and another rates it below meals in Mexico and on the West Coast.
