The Scene – This funky redux of Rick's Cafe in Casablanca is littered with Bogart and Bergman posters, film stills, tropical props and the occasional neon beer sign. In the center of the dining room, a traditionally dressed woman grills hundreds of fresh tortillas over an ancient-looking stove. – – The Food – Refreshingly, Casablanca's menu steers diners away from tacos and enchiladas toward eclectic steak and seafood options. Traditional margaritas trump syrupy mango versions and the too-sweet sangria. Skip the appetizers and dive into the basket of buttery,…
Still love it after all these years!

Greatest calamari steak with a garlicky butter sauce - OUT OF THIS WORLD!
Easy to fill up on the fresh made tortillas and salsa verde that are served prior to the meal.
Margaritas are pricey, but the strawberry version was fine for $15.
All in all, still a great place to eat after 20 years of yearly visits!!!!
- Pros: Fabulous fresh-made tortillas and sauce and calamari steak
- Cons: NONE
Very disappointed

My husband I decided to check out Casablanca based on the supposed great reviews....were we totally disappointed! We should have walked out when we first walked in b/c the restaurant smelled like fish. The tacky fake rose napkin holders with the god awful decor and the singer with a black eye said it all - "SAVE YOUR MONEY & LEAVE!!" But we decided to try it out anyways. We ordered a pitcher of margaritas and were disappointed again when the contents looked more like lemonade than refreshing authentic margaritas. What a joke. $22 for fake margaritas! Then the tacos had more onions, bell peppers and letuce than the few cold pieces of beef. Save your money and dine else where. I don't think the previous reviewers have had real Mexican food. This place does not compare to anything authentic!
- Pros: homemade tortillas
- Cons: Chinzy tacos and ready mix margaritas
Meh
by lorenelindsay
really wanted to like this place, but the food was simply just not good. The service was slow and the margaritas were flavored water w/ seemingly no alcohol! I must say that I did enjoy the fresh flour tortillas and the green sauce they served with them, but unfortunately, the tortillas alone were not enough to bring me back.
- Pros: food, parking
- Cons: fresh flour tortillas & green sauce
