Put on the sombrero and head into Casa Alvarez for a taste of Old World Mexico. Owners Ernesto Alverez and Betty Cormane create traditional favorites in an upscale (but bona fide) south-of-the-border atmosphere. If you feel like a change from the usual Mexican fare, order the house specialty, Mojara Frita. The dish is a whole fried freshwater tilapia with a side of beans. Numerous shrimp selections, vegetarian dishes and old spins on standard Mexican items complete the menu. The bar offers over 30 different types of tequila.

Not Boulder's Best Mexican Food
Casa Alvarez can use much improvement. While they have a cozy atmosphere, the menu fails to provide a good selection of mexican food, and the food they do provide is very low in quality and taste. I ordered chicken enchiladas, and much of the meat was not even white meat. In addition the service is poor, being very unattentive to their guests. They even charge $2.00 for a refill on chips & salsa. There are plenty of other good restaurants in Boulder if you are searching for mexican food.
Would you recommend this to a friend?
No
Why? / Why Not?
Casa Alvarez is not recommended due to poor service, poor management and poor quality food. They don't even qualify for being a mediocre mexican restaurant in my book.
