Casa Del Matador is a Seattle chain that has opened up shop on NW 23rd and E. Burnside in Portland. They specialize in Tex Mex and tequila. We checked it out with a large work group and the staff did a good job of keeping the food and drinks flowing. The margaritas are big and strong and are best on the rocks. We started with the Blackened Ahi with Green Apple Slaw, the Ancho-Chipotle Wings and the Habanero Prawns which were both pretty hot and tasty, and the Spicy Fried Calamari, which was the only disappointment.
As an entree, I had the red chile carnitas enchiladas plate with black beans, rice and pico de gallo; the enchiladas also come with carne asada, shredded chicken, or shrimp. Another favorite at our table was the Carne Asada Surf and Turf: seared, marinaded skirt steak and Garlic or Habanero Prawns, served with garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed corn and leeks.
The prices are very reasonable and overall the services was good. They also have a huge bar where you can eat and watch a game. When the opened the big garage doors the breeze made it very comfortable despite being a hot evening.
