Stunning indoor/outdoor restaurant, bar and events space with a Coastal Mediterranean influence. Casaléna aims to take diners on a culinary journey along the coasts of Italy, Spain and the surrounding Mediterranean regions while utilizing California’s best seasonal produce and highest-quality ingredients. The property features five distinct dining spaces, each offering their own unique ambiance. Guests can enjoy convivial cocktails in the Bar & Lounge, or savor a romantic dinner in the Atrium. For an al fresco experience, the Garden’s sunken patio is surrounded by lush greenery, and the fully enclosed Terrace offers stunning views through its floor-to-ceiling glass. DRESS CODE: At Casaléna, our goal is to establish a refined dining ambiance. We deem tank tops, flip flops, beach wear, and team athletic attire as overly casual for our establishment. Our staff maintains a standard of appearance they take pride in, and we kindly request our guests to adhere to our attire guidelines.

    The food is consistently delicious and the wine selection is great, but we return time and time again because of the wonderful staff. Each server provides fantastic service, is knowledgeable about the food and wine menu, and warmly welcomes us every time we visit. Mora is where I make reservations when I have dinner plans with family and friends. I highly recommend this neighborhood restaurant!
