About us
CASAMEXICANA HISTORY
Casa Mexicana was the second oldest Mexican restaurant establishment in the Kingdom of Bahrain and became known for its authentic dishes that make you feel like you’re in Mexico. A truly one-of-a-kind dining experience as you enjoy the rich flavor and freshness of every dish on the menu.
We pride ourselves in having a Mexican Chef for almost 30 years. At the moment our Head Chef Romaldo Martinez is in charge, a proud native of Acapulco Mexico. His passion for cooking was guided by his loving mother who always reminded him that the freshness of the ingredients comes first to make your food taste better than the others. Chef Romaldo is responsible for your delicious Fajitas, Enchiladas, Burritos, Tacos, and other varieties on the menu.
Similar goes for our cocktails and of course, our famous Margarita! There is no point to compare our Margarita if you need an extra kick? Just Ask!
Live entertainment every night starts at 7 pm onwards. Playing a repertoire of music from Mexican, Spanish, Latin, and English that will surely get you dancing out of your seat! We will always welcome you at Casa Mexicana and want you to feel as your home away from home with our friendly service. As they say in Mexico, “Mi Casa es Su Casa”.
