What a terrible experience. It has "Mediterranean" in the name, but it thinks it's a Mexican restaurant, but doesn't even serve decent Mexican food.
The bright fluorescent lights when you come in were terrible. Mexican music so … More

I just left there. Have been there about 4 times already since they recently opened because I can't get enough. Everytime I try something new and everything is cooked to perfection. The whole place is very clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Out of all our local places this has become my favorite to eat at.

My husband and I have been looking for the best place to get Spanish food and we finally found it!!
We went out on a date night hoping we could find some amazing food and this place didn't let us down at all.
The food was absolutely amazing every last bite of it.
Everything was cooked perfectly and had amazing flavor!
The desserts were also so delicious!
I wouldn't change a thing about any of the food it was spot on.
That brings me to the service ...absolutely amazing! The waitress we had was not only beautiful but she was so nice and welcoming.
I then found out they also have hookah and that seriously made me so happy lol.
Anyways this place has it all!! I highly recommend this place to anyone! If you haven't gone here you need to I promise it won't be your last time.
Thanks again you guys made our night!

Casa Blanca Restaurant & Grille - If you haven't been here yet it's a must! Marvelous Margaritas and Mofongo! And they have a few open igloos this weekend! The lobster fettuccine was awesome! Super sweet staff too. Tell them Candy & Mike sent you! Hazle St. WB , the former WhiteHouse bar at the bottom of the hill by Turkey hill. More

The red snapper fried fish was so bad when I ordered for pickup they didn’t cooked the fish completely from the inside and the seasoning was not even good at all i don’t know exactly why it wasn’t cooked all the way probably becuase they kept the fish frozen for too long instead of getting new fresh fish More

Upscale pricing for subpar food. Our table of 15 waited 45 minutes for drinks, then over an hour for food. Ordered a medium well steak and received a rare steak. They took it back and brought back a medium steak. Do not recommend. More

Definitely a hidden gem . The food was amazing. They had a great selection of cocktails. The staff were very friendly and attentive without being bothersome. The restaurant was clean and well kept. The music they played was enjoyable. They also have very aesthetic igloos on their outside deck to dine in. Will definitely be returning on my next date night

I am originally from Puerto Rico and I thought the seafood here was never going to compare. But let me tell you the octopus salad was to die for and my girlfriend’s fried fish incredible. Last but not least Natalie’s attention to detail made the whole night. Keep up the great cooking.

Nathalie and Nancy are amazing! Service and hospitality were SO present the entire dinner. My friend and I split the tequila lime shrimp. I had the red snapper with veggies - highly recommended. Come for strong drinks, karaoke on Fridays or Sundays and stay for the warm welcome and delicious food! Compliments to the chef!
