Authentic Mexican Cuisine in Vancouver's Gastown
La Casita has been serving authentic Mexican cuisine since 1990, when it was founded in Powell River, BC by my mother. Her dedication to handcrafted food and memorable hospitality quickly built a loyal following. In 1995, I expanded the business, added a liquor license, and grew the restaurant until its successful relocation to Vancouver's Gastown in 2004. Our commitment to quality ingredients, traditional recipes, and exceptional customer service has made us a beloved destination for Mexican food in Vancouver.We offer a diverse menu featuring dishes like Steak Tampiquena, Enchiladas, and Margaritas, alongside vegetarian, vegan, and allergy-friendly options. Located in the heart of Gastown near major landmarks, we provide dine-in, delivery, takeout, and event hosting services to accommodate all our guests' needs.
