About Mi Casa Su Casa Cafe

Welcome to Mi Casa Su Casa Cafe

Nestled in the heart of Reading, PA, Mi Casa Su Casa Cafe is more than just another Latin American restaurant—it’s a vibrant gathering place where flavor, culture, and community converge. From the moment you step through our doors, you’ll experience an inviting ambiance that feels like home, paired with authentic dishes that celebrate the rich culinary traditions of Latin America. Whether you’re craving a quick lunch break, a leisurely weekend brunch, or a flavorful dinner, our cafe delivers freshness, warmth, and value in every bite.

Authentic Latin American Flavors

At Mi Casa Su Casa Cafe, food quality and flavor are at the core of our kitchen philosophy. Guests consistently rave about the freshness of each dish, highlighting signature menu items like our Beef & Cheese Empanada (the clear winner in many taste tests) and our delicately seasoned Chicken Empanada. Our in-house hot sauce—a proud customer favorite—adds a fiery zest that enhances each recipe without overpowering it. And for an authentic taste of the Dominican Republic, our traditional Mangu is nothing short of a revelation: creamy mashed plantains served with pickled onions, perfectly seasoned, and universally praised as a must-try.

Specialty Coffee & Beverages

No Latin American restaurant is complete without exceptional coffee, and Mi Casa Su Casa Cafe goes above and beyond to deliver. Customers repeatedly note that our specialty brews outshine chain offerings: “Best coffee in the area—better than a $5 cup at Starbucks,” and “the best mocha, pancakes, and oatmeal I’ve ever had.” From bold espressos to frothy mochas, each cup is crafted with care, ensuring a perfect balance of richness and aroma. Pair your beverage with one of our freshly baked pastries or traditional sweet breads for a breakfast experience that feels both comforting and extraordinary.

Warm Hospitality & Personal Service

At the center of our dining experience is genuine hospitality. Patrons describe our team as warm, welcoming, and attentive—attributes that transform a simple meal into a memorable occasion.

Affordable Value & Speedy Service

Generous portions, wallet-friendly pricing, and quick turnaround times define our approach to service. Many reviewers have marveled at how affordable our menu is, noting that our “portion sizes are well worth the price” and “prices are almost unbelievably low.” Even during peak hours, our kitchen maintains impressive efficiency: orders arrive hot, fresh, and on time. While we strive for perfection, occasional delivery hiccups have prompted us to invite guests to call ahead or opt for in-store pickup to guarantee full order accuracy. We continually refine our processes to ensure that every order—dine-in, takeout, or delivery—meets our high standards.
