About us
CASAMEXICANA HISTORY
Casa Mexicana was established in 1993 with a simple dream: to bring the warm, vibrant flavors of Mexico to our community. From the first tortillas pressed by hand to the lingering finish of a perfectly balanced mole, the heartbeat of our restaurant has always been people-families, neighbors, and travelers sharing meals, stories, and laughter.
From the start, a Mexican-first approach defined our kitchen. For seven years, Chef Pedro led with authenticity, passion, and a deep respect for regional flavors. He was followed by Chef Romaldo, who continued the tradition for more than two decades with mentorship, skill, and a commitment to quality.
Today, the kitchen remains rooted in Mexican leadership and is guided by our skilled sous chef and a dedicated team. They carry forward the legacy of Pedro and Romaldo, while embracing new ideas and seasonal inspirations that keep our menu vibrant and true to our origins. Under this leadership, we remain devoted to craftsmanship, consistency, and the warm, family-friendly dining experience you’ve known at Casa Mexicana.
ROWENA LARA MARIANO – OWNER/MANAGING DIRECTOR
Rowena is the heart and soul of Casa Mexicana. Having attained her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration, she was always business oriented since the age of fifteen years old. More of a doer than a thinker, Rowena will be seen working hands-on on every project. Making her way to the Kingdom of Bahrain in the early 90’s she took one step at a time making her foundation stable and respectable. Having started as a curator in Bahrain, working on delicate piecer of arts in canvas, she has gained a lot of expertise in not only art but the global finance market, private placement and private equity. Also having worked as an administrator, managing director, publisher and interior designer, her other role involves being a personal chef for her family.
