Have to say everything we ordered was delicious! The service was just okay. It could have been better! The drinks were on point! We will definitely be back!
Food and service was excellent. We had steak and seafood. Steaks were tender and cooked perfectly.
Excellent food with great choices on the menu. We went on Christmas Day and did not have to wait at all for our table -- a good thing since it was raining like crazy. However, there was a cheerful covered waiting area outside for people who showed up later. Did not feel rushed and the waiter was very attentive. I have no complaints whatsoever and will be back for another great meal.
The food was amazing. Excellently prepared with lovely presentation. The restaurant was crowded and a bit noisy which you would expect for a holiday dinner. That did not take away from a wonderful dining experience.
What a deal the Monday night special is! $69.00 and you get two full four course meals & a bottle of wine. We thought it was too good to be true, but it was fantastic! There was so much food we couldn't even finish it, they did make for excellent leftovers. 10/10 recommend going on a Monday night and checking this out!
Delicious as always. Bummer is we have 3 kids that have grown into young ladies that like the finer things and don't share as much so dinner is a bit more spendy. But we had a good time and will be back.
The best dinner out we have had in years. Great food at a great value. Good wine list. Service top notch.
My wife and I have been to the Casa Bella Steakhouse a few times. When did this lovely steakhouse turn into a sports bar? We could hear the music and crowd a block away. We showed up for our 39th wedding anniversary and they tried to sit us in the bar area. We would not have been able to talk to each other. They finally moved us to the back of the restaurant where we had to contend we the bathroom and kitchen noise. The food and server were good but not the experience we were expecting or wanted.
This was one of the worst dining experiences I have had. From the two wildly loud competing music sources blasting from outside and inside, but different equally awful music, to the almost complete lack of service, it seemed impossible that things couldn't get worse, but then the food finally came. The salad was wilted and the steak was Tasteless and tough. The only redeeming part of the meal was the bread, but it was oddly served in a basket with a wad of butter slopped on the cloth napkin, which we would inadvertently stick our fingers into when reaching for the bread.
Food and service are great. Friendly and hardworking staff. Happy hour food selections are better than many places for the same price.

Party of 5 seated by the bar. Not busy. It was loud. The food and service was good. Presentation was average. More casual than no flip flops, it's Ventura.
Service was awesome, food was great.

I was excited to find that lobster was the specialty on that particular evening. I had the broiled lobster with side of wild shrimp over pasta. The lobster was over-cooked by a few minutes, and was rubbery. My date had the same rubber lobster. I had high hopes for this restaurant, but could have just picked the wrong dish. I should have just gone to Lure's Seafood just across the street. The sign outside said cuisine of Mexico City, but I saw no Mexican dishes on the menu. I know Chilango cuisine. Not a top end bar, for all carbonated mixers just come out of the hose. Would have appreciated the option of a high end tonic water with my Gin and Tonic. Nice that they brought out a nice birthday dessert. I may go back and try something other than the lobster.

We've only been to Casa Bella 2 times but loved it each time. The food, service and atmosphere are wonderful. It's our favorite "special night out" restaurant. We feel the price is very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food served.
