The food here was absolutely stellar. They made the guacamole right at the table and It was the best I've ever had, Dare I say it better than mine. The burrito bowl was fabulous, And the flan, Was the most delightful, Service everything about the place just wonderful I will be taking my family back.

My daughter suggested this Mexican restaurant. I grew up in San Diego and had been exposed to some great Mexican food. This place had very good food. The wait staff was outstanding and very fun. The menu is pretty diverse. Lots of different types of Mexican foods from different regions. Please try them.

This guacamole was a surprising new experience. I'm used to mostly flavorless ones, this one was quite flavorful to the point I'd consider eating it with a spoon. The plates and food came out really hot, my 3 street tacos were overflowing with carnitas, and the rice had a nice flavor. Didn't try the beans myself, but my friend loved the refried, but not the black beans (said they were bland). Service was fast, staff friendly.

Martin makes the best guacamole I’ve ever had. Mixed up fresh right in front of us. His personality is awesome and this is my favorite New Mexican restaurant!

Great gem tucked away in the strip mall off Sunnyside Rd in Happy Valley. In the same mall as New Seasons this place is fabulous! It was busy at the lunch hour and people were raving about the food. Jose was awesome and so incredibly friendly and helpful. Service was fast and food was hot. Chips and salsa were good and the chips kept coming. Didn’t drink as I was working but people seemed happy with their lunchtime margaritas. Prices were good and portions were large. Stop by and say hello to Jose and have a great meal.

It was our first visit to Casa Colima Mexican Restaurant, and we were blown away by the experience. The freshly made Guacamole right in front of us was both awesome and amazing, providing a delicious burst of flavor. Our orders, including Colima Especial, Enchilada Original Cheese, Pollo A La Diabla, and a Kids' Taco, were all outstanding. The food, service, and atmosphere exceeded our expectations. We now consider Casa Colima one of our favorite spots to eat, and we're looking forward to returning for more delightful meals.

Beutifully deocrated with authentic mexican tile, art work and furniture. The food was the best mexican I've had in the Portland Metro Area, hands down, and I grew up in San Diego! Fresh, flavorful and all house made.It will not dissapoint! Only wish they had one near me in close in NE. Table side Guacamole, salds of flavor and architecture! Torilla soup worth ordering again! Fresh, Fresh, Fresh!

Tableside guacamole is a must have! Fresh ingredients and made to your preference of spiciness. Margaritas are fabulous!
