Casa Vega, in Sherman Oaks, opened its doors in 1956 and has been serving the people of Southern California ever since. Local residents, and even celebrities, have flocked to the family-run Mexican restaurant currently run by Christy Vega Fowler, daughter of original owner, Rafael Vega. While the decor is modern, the menu still reflects traditional Mexican menu staples. The extensive menu allows for every person to find something to enjoy. Homemade house guacamole, or one of the many soup or salad options, make for a great starter. The entree options are plentiful. Casa Vega serves everything from traditional chicken mole, a plethora of burrito options, combination plates and specialty options, such as carne chile Colorade and the signature Casa Vega molcajete. Vegan and vegetarian options are also available. Top off your meal at Casa Vega with a delicious house margarita or mojito.

    We had a reservation for 7:30 and by 8:30, we were asked to leave our table for a larger party that was coming in (also was a Monday night, restaurant was not busy). We basically had to chug our drinks and a different server than the one we had all night checked us out because they couldn’t manage their tables properly. We were also there for a birthday and watched multiple other tables her birthday shoutouts but I guess in their haste to make us leave, they forgot to do that. Totally unprofessional and unacceptable

    Be aware of where they seat you. I made a reservation for a family holiday dinner for 9. We were seated in a very loud bar area table. The barstools were arm length from my chair where I sat with my grandchild. The man there was saying f*%# every few words. His date was dancing in shorts next to my side. Be sure to specify the setting required. Food was out in minutes, check quick too. Nice server, decent food. Much smaller portions than most Mexican restaurants which I liked, those that eat more will need to order appetizers and salad or soups.

    3 of us went in for a late lunch and the hostess made us sit at a tiny half table and told us she was saving the bigger booths for parties of 4 - the entire section sat empty the whole time we ate. I’ve also heard from many sources that the food has gone downhill lately and I can confirm that it’s true. It’s not nearly as good as it used to be and it’s ridiculously expensive. A mediocre meal for 2 adults and a child for $89 with no alcohol is just ridiculous. I want to keep supporting this landmark I’ve been going to for 20 years but if things don’t change I won’t be back.
