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.

    It was a special occasion birthday party. The manager named Marty was so gracious. She got us a fantastic table and came and checked in us during the evening. She made us felt very welcomed and special. Besides that the food was excellent.

    Ordered the crab and shrimp tostada. I asked the waiter if the crab was real or made from polok or other fish…he said “oh yes” very good and real crab”…the dish was soggy, the crab is not real and the shrimp were so miniscule you really could have used a magnifying glass to see them. Major disappointment. The only thing we ordered that tasted fresh and not pre-made was the table side guacamole. It was good but nothing special. The ambience is fun because it’s nostalgic. So if you only go for drinks and ambience the place is great…a bit noisy but fun. The food could use some help. Even the refried beans and rice tasted cold and looked like it had been sitting on a plate in the kitchen waiting for a customer to get it. The place gets a sold C from me unfortunately.
