Coin and Candor is my favorite restaurant to go to. Unfortunately, this time I was a little disappointed that there wasn’t an explanation under “Starters and Pasta” as to the size of the serving. The pasta dishes that we ordered were very small which left some of our guest still hungry. Also, the dessert this time was a little underwhelming. It pains me to say these things as I really do love going there but this time was a bit of a miss. Sorry.

About the restaurant

Stunning indoor/outdoor restaurant, bar and events space with a Coastal Mediterranean influence. Casaléna aims to take diners on a culinary journey along the coasts of Italy, Spain and the surrounding Mediterranean regions while utilizing California’s best seasonal produce and highest-quality ingredients. The property features five distinct dining spaces, each offering their own unique ambiance. Guests can enjoy convivial cocktails in the Bar & Lounge, or savor a romantic dinner in the Atrium. For an al fresco experience, the Garden’s sunken patio is surrounded by lush greenery, and the fully enclosed Terrace offers stunning views through its floor-to-ceiling glass.

DRESS CODE: At Casaléna, our goal is to establish a refined dining ambiance. We deem tank tops, flip flops, beach wear, and team athletic attire as overly casual for our establishment. Our staff maintains a standard of appearance they take pride in, and we kindly request our guests to adhere to our attire guidelines.

Beautiful atmosphere. Pur family had lunch there after high school graduation. Our appetizers were excellent but our main dishes were overpriced and not excellent. Burgers were thin. Sushi Poke was over sauced. Cesar salad was soggy.

I celebrated a birthday at this restaurant last night and had an amazing experience. The drinks were delicious, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was truly excellent. We had a beautiful view of the city, and when it got chilly in the evening, they immediately turned on the heaters, which made everything so comfortable. It was an unforgettable night, and I’m really grateful to the staff for making it so special. I highly recommend this place!
