                           CASA OLE RESTAURANTS, INC.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

                  In the opinion of Casa Ole Restaurants, Inc. (the "Company"),
         the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all
         adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and
         adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated
         financial position as of October 3, 1997, and the consolidated
         statements of income and cash flows for the 40-week and 12-week periods
         ended October 3, 1997 and October 4, 1996. The consolidated statements
         of income for the 40-week and 12-week periods ended October 3, 1997 are
         not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
         year.

                  To conform to the current year presentation, certain of the
         prior year balances have been reclassified. Specifically, paper and
         supply costs were reclassified from cost of sales to restaurant
         operating expenses.

2.       ACCOUNTING POLICIES

                  During the interim periods the Company follows the accounting
         policies set forth in its combined financial statements in its Annual
         Report and Form 10-K (file number 0-28234). Reference should be made to
         such financial statements for information on such accounting policies
         and further financial details.

                  The Company does not have or participate in transactions
         involving derivative, financial and commodity instruments.

3.       PRO FORMA DATA

                  The 1996 pro forma income statement data reflects adjustments
         to compensation and related party expense arrangements, and reflects an
         adjustment to the provision for income taxes to reflect a 37% effective
         tax rate, as if the Company had been taxed as a C corporation prior to
         the effective date of the Company's initial public offering.

                  For fiscal 1996 and 1997, both primary and fully diluted net
         income per share are based on the weighted average number of shares
         outstanding during the year increased by dilutive common equivalent
         shares (stock options and warrants) determined using the treasury stock
         method. Because of the April 1996 offering date, the shares outstanding
         for the first quarter of 1996 were approximately 865,000 shares less
         than the number outstanding thereafter.

 4.       PURCHASE OF MONTEREY'S ACQUISITION CORP.

                  The Company purchased 100% of the outstanding stock of
         Monterey's Acquisition Corp. ("MAC") on July 2, 1997. The Company
         purchased the shares of common stock for $4.0 million, paid off
         outstanding debt and accrued interest totaling $7.1 million and funded
         various other agreed upon items approximating $500,000. The transaction
         was funded using cash on hand of approximately $3.0 million and funds
         available to the Company under its amended credit facility. At the time
         of acquisition, MAC owned and operated 26 restaurants in Texas and
         Oklahoma under the names "Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafe," "Monterey's Little
         Mexico" and "Tortuga Cantina."

                  The table below presents pro forma income statement
         information as if the Company had purchased MAC at the beginning of the
         fiscal year. Pro forma adjustments are to remove consulting fees that
         are non-continuing, amortize the resulting goodwill over 40 years and
         remove the pre-acquisition goodwill amortization, reflect net interest
         expense on the debt resulting from the acquisition and record
         additional income tax at an effective rate of 37% on the combined
         income of the Company and MAC. Pro forma information for fiscal 1996
         was reported on Form 8-K, which was filed with the Securities and
         Exchange Commission on July 16, 1997.

5.       NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

                  In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
         issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. SFAS No. 128 replaces primary
         earnings per share and fully diluted earnings per share with basic
         earnings per share (net income divided by the weighted average common
         shares outstanding without the dilutive effects of common stock
         equivalents) and diluted earnings per share, respectively. SFAS No. 128
         is effective for financial statements for both interim and annual
         periods ending after December 15, 1997, with earlier application not
         permitted. Effective December 1997, the Company will be required to
         adopt SFAS No. 128.

6.       INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

                  The Company announced its initial public offering of 2,000,000
         shares of Common Stock at a price of $11.00 per share on April 25,
         1996. On May 1, 1996, the Company redeemed 1,135,000 shares of Common
         Stock for $10.00 per share from a principal of the Company.

and in the Company's Annual Report and Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 27, 1996, that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and
factors that may affect the Company's business.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The Company closed on its purchase of 100% of the outstanding stock of
Monterey's Acquisition Corp. ("MAC") on July 2, 1997. Accordingly, the results
of operations presented below include the operations of the 26 MAC units from
the date of closing through the end of the Company's third quarter on October 3,
1997. Pro forma information as if the Company had owned MAC for the forty weeks
ended October 3, 1997 is presented in note 4 of the notes to consolidated
financial statements included herein.

         Revenues. The Company's revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1997
were up 159.4% to $11.2 million over revenues of $4.3 million for the same
quarter a year ago. Restaurant sales for the third quarter of 1997 were up $6.9
million over the same quarter a year ago, to $10.9 million. Sales at
restaurants operating in both fiscal quarters ("same-stores") were down 5.1%
over last year's same quarter, offsetting the overall sales increase by
$205,000. The 26 MAC units contributed $5.4 million in the third quarter. The
remaining increase was due to the additional sales contributed by the Company's
new stores.

         For the 40 weeks ended October 3, 1997, revenues increased $10.4
million, or 74.7 %, to $24.3 million. Year-to-date same-store sales were down
0.3% from the prior year, offsetting the overall sales increase by $37,000. The
remaining increase was due to the Company's new stores and the acquisition of
MAC.

         Costs and Expenses. Cost of sales as a percentage of restaurant sales
during the current quarter was 25% as compared to 22.6% in the same quarter last
year (see note 1). Excluding the impact of MAC, cost of sales was 22.9%.

         On a year-to-date basis, cost of sales as a percentage of restaurant
sales was 23.8%, as compared to the prior year-to-date percentage of 22.5%.
Again, excluding the impact of MAC, cost of sales was 22.5%. Modest menu price
increases were implemented in the fall of 1996 and late summer (week of
September 15th) of 1997. The most recent menu price increases were to offset the
federally mandated minimum wage increase.




                                        7

         Restaurant operating expenses increased $4.2 million, or 179.5%, in the
third quarter of 1997, as compared with the third quarter of 1996. As a
percentage of restaurant sales, restaurant operating expenses increased to 59.5%
in the current quarter, as compared to 57.5% in the same quarter last year. This
2% increase as a percent of restaurant sales in the current quarter was a result
of higher labor and training costs in the Company's new Casa Ole restaurants,
partially offset by lower operating costs in the MAC units.

         Restaurant operating expenses as a percentage of restaurant sales for
the 40 weeks just ended were 59.0%, up from 57.7% in the prior year. The
increase was a result of the higher labor and training costs experienced in the
Company's new Casa Ole units.

         General and administrative expenses (G&A) increased $781,000, or
161.5%, in the third quarter as compared with the prior year's same quarter. As
a percentage of total revenues, G&A increased to 11.4% in the third quarter of
1997, from 11.2% in the third quarter of 1996. Third quarter G&A included
$241,000 in special charges. The special charges related to severance packages
for recent management changes, the costs associated with an unsuccessful
acquisition attempt which was subsequent to the MAC acquisition, and a write
down of the Company's investment in a franchise restaurant in Terre Haute,
Indiana. The personnel changes are anticipated to save the Company approximately
$300,000 in G&A costs in fiscal 1998. The increase was also due to training
costs that were incurred for new stores that were not considered preopening
costs, pay rate increases for certain employees effective at the beginning of
fiscal 1997, the addition of corporate personnel and higher legal expenses.

         Year-to-date G&A was 10.9% of total revenues, as compared to 11.4% for
the same period last year. The prior year G&A included approximately $162,000 of
related party expense that was not a component of the current year expenses.
Giving effect to this, G&A as a percentage of total revenues would have been
10.2% for the 40 weeks ended October 4, 1996. The increase from 10.2% to 10.9%
was attributed to the same items as discussed in the preceding paragraph.

         Depreciation and amortization expense (D&A) as a percentage of total
revenues increased for the quarter and year-to-date to 3.9% from 0.9%, and to
3.1% from 1.0%, respectively. These increases were a direct result of the
addition of depreciable assets related to Company's five new store openings
since the third quarter of 1996, along with added depreciation and amortization
related to two stores acquired from prior franchisees and the acquisition of
MAC. As the Company opens new restaurants, D&A as a percentage of total revenues
is expected to continue to increase.

         Other Income (Expense). Net other income as a percentage of total
revenues decreased from income to an expense of 1.6% for the third quarter and
an expense of 0.1% for the year, from income of 3.3% and 2.5% for the prior year
same periods, respectively. The net decrease in both the quarter and
year-to-date amount was due to the constant reduction in interest income and the
incurrence of interest expense as the proceeds from the 1996 initial public
offering were used for construction projects and debt was incurred related to
the acquisition of MAC. Additionally, during the second quarter of fiscal 1996,
the Company received and recorded a $60,000 rent refund that related to years
prior to fiscal 1996.

         Income Tax Expense. Prior to the Company's initial public offering in
April 1996, substantially all of the predecessor corporations elected to be
taxed as S corporations under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal
Revenue Code. As a result of such election, federal income taxes on the net
income of these corporations were payable personally by the shareholders. The
provision for income taxes reflected in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 is for
state franchise taxes on all restaurants and for federal income taxes on the
predecessor corporations that were taxable as C corporations. The effective tax
rates on those corporations were less than the expected rates due to applicable
graduated tax rates. The provision for income taxes reflected in quarters
subsequent to the initial public offering reflects an estimated 37% effective
tax rate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,821,357 for the 40
weeks ended October 3, 1997, compared to $1,558,032 for the same period last
year. Despite a 35.1% decrease in net income, net income plus depreciation and
amortization increased by $120,171 to $1.68 million from $1.56 million. The
additional increase in operating cash flow was primarily due to special charges
and to other changes in various components of working capital. At October 3,
1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of $2.4 million, which is common
in the restaurant industry, since restaurant companies do not typically require
a significant investment in either accounts receivable or inventory.

         During the first 40 weeks of 1997, capital expenditures on property,
plant and equipment were approximately $7.1 million as compared to approximately
$1.3 for the same period of 1996. Capital expenditures during the year-to-date
period included the acquisition of real estate and construction costs for its
restaurants in Corpus Christi, Texas and Garden City, Idaho, which is a Market
Partner restaurant. Corpus Christi is due to open in the spring of 1998, while
Garden City is expected to open in mid December 1997. Three real estate sites
were acquired in Texas, New Mexico and Idaho respectively, with the Idaho site
planned for a future Market Partner restaurant. Capital expenditures also
included the acquisition of real estate for its Market Partner restaurant in
Pocatello, Idaho, which opened just after the end of the second quarter; and
construction costs for the Company's new Tortuga Mexican Kitchen casual dinning
prototype in Baytown, Texas, which opened just after the end of the second
quarter. Other stores which opened during the year were in Plainview, Texas on
March 18 and in Bryan and Lubbock, Texas, which opened during the second
quarter. Additionally, the Company had cash outlays for necessary replacement
equipment in various older units. In addition to capital outlays, the Company
acquired the assets of one of its franchise locations during the first quarter
for a $750,000 note payable to the prior franchisee, of which $626,676 was
allocated to goodwill, and the remainder was allocated primarily to fixed
assets.

         During the second quarter, the Company closed on its acquisition of the
stock of MAC. The Company purchased the shares of common stock for $4.0 million,
paid off outstanding debt and accrued interest totaling $7.1 million and funded
various other agreed upon items approximating $500,000. The transaction was
funded using cash on hand of approximately $3.0 million and funds available to
the Company under its amended credit facility.

         To facilitate the acquisition of MAC, the Company negotiated an
amendment to its existing $10 million credit facility with NationsBank. Terms,
including applicable prime or LIBOR based interest rates, of the amended
facility are similar to those in the original facility, however, the facility
was expanded to $13 million, with $6 million designated as a term note payable
over six years, and the remaining $7 million designated as a revolving credit
line. At October 3, 1997, the Company had $5.8 million outstanding under the
term facility and approximately $4.6 million outstanding under the revolver.
While the special charges discussed above resulted in technical non-compliance
with certain debt covenants, the bank has indicated in writing that the bank has
approved an amendment to bring the Company into full compliance. As before the
most recent amendment, which is expected to be documented promptly, the
revolving line may be used for certain acquisitions, construction of new units
and other working capital needs. The line no longer restricts the Company's use
solely for the acquisition of one of the Company's franchisees.

         Capital expenditures over the next 12 months are anticipated to
approximate $4.2 million, which includes seven to eight existing store remodels
and constructing or converting five to six new units through a combination of
Company-owned and market partner arrangements. Remodeling will focus on both the
Monterey's Little Mexico concept and the new Casa Ole' prototype. New
construction will focus primarily on Tortuga Mexican Kitchen. The Company also
plans to sell certain stores (Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafes) and certain real estate.

         Management of the Company anticipates that cash flow from operations,
combined with the remaining availability under the $13 million credit facility,
will be sufficient to fund these planned capital 




                                       9

expenditures. Planned capital expenditures as presented do not include the
potential acquisition of any of the Company's franchised units or any other
Mexican restaurant concept.
