We came here last night with a party of 10. They had complimentary valet which was nice. They seated our party off to the side... which I also liked since we had small children. I ordered the filet mignon. My husband the prime rib and for the kids theAlfredo. We also tried the Calamari and a side of Onion Rings. We thought all the food was delicious. The service was great.Portions were huge. We left stuffed and satisfied. We will definitely be back. Read more
We met up with another couple for dinner this past Wed. We were seated in a quiet corner, so it was easy to catch up with each... other. We each ordered a different meal and everyone said their food was done to perfection. Our server was spot on with histiming. We will definitely make a return visit to Casa Orinda for a "Date Night" in the near future. Read more
Haven't been here in a while. Prices have gone up. Ordered a panzanella salad special that was pretty bad. Also someone added... a maraschino cherry to my scotch rocks cocktail. That was a do over. Maybe new staff? Won't go back anytime soon. And itused to be great... Read more
Classic American chop house with a wonderful menu. I enjoyed the rack of lamb; it was prepared exactly as I ordered it, not over... or under done. They make a fried chicken dish that is amazing. For dessert I had a lemon cream pie that tasted like a smallslice of heaven. The pours for the cocktails are generous and the conversation with other patrons at the bar made my time hereeven more enjoyable. I will return and I suggest that you come check it out! Read more
Greeted by the valet with a smile and "how are you tonight?" Surprised me as I pulled in the grab a spot and he happily opened... the door for us. Entered into a low lit atmosphere, friendly staff, low music playing a slow jazz in the background while imagesof cowboys grace the walls, cattle brands on the table and brass tealight "oil" lamps adorn the tables. The flavors explode fromthe perfectly cooked chicken in an amazing sauce as the waiter asked how things were. The food was simply amazing. Heavenlyeven.. Large portions where one plate would feed the two of us but happily taking home some left overs. The price reflects thelarger portions as well. But we will be back to this hidden Orinda gem of a place to try the fried chicken ???? CaponDore Chicken Cacciatore Read more
Great place for cocktails and THE BEST fried chicken in the West Coast. Can be super crowded on Fridays and Saturdays, but for... good reason. The skilled servers and the comfortable, old fashioned, Wild West motif really allow for relaxed, friendly diningfor those that prefer to skip the boisterous younger crowd. Read more
I go to see the bartender Cynthia. Bonus for good food. Sitting at the bar does tend to be entertaining. I'm actually not a fan... of their fried chicken, which apparently is blasphemy. The pan seared chicken breast is fantastic with spinach and mashedpotatoes. Read more
