Cringing, craving, bingeing, braving... you always have an opinion on what's hot and what's not in your city and we just love to hear it. Besides, there's no better place to satiate that itch to bitch!
I remember going to Casa Del Sol about 5 years ago & having good food & a good time there. I went there a couple of days back with the same memories & expected the same experience. How wrong was I?!
The place is worn down & dirty. Honestly, I couldn't even bear to sit on the chair because the cushion was so dirty, you could see it clearly!
We said ok fine, let's hope the food is good atleast... we sat down & ordered the starters & main course together at 8:20 pm exact. After a very long wait, we got our starters at 9:30 pm! Yes, 50 minutes wait when there were exactly 2 other... read more
Casa del Sol started as an upgraded version of Bangalore’s Casa Piccola a few years ago .

Landed up at Cada Del Sol after a gap of 2 yrs for brunch today. The menu has changed...its not the usual Paella anymore (it was a constant for over two years...!) and that's the reason we decided on a re-visit. They have some new North Indian & Chinese dishes. Just about passable with one or two dishes of each kind...if you can call it a spread for Rs 600...! The restaurant is almost empty on a Sunday...sad for a restaurant that boasts of Sunday brunch...! But they do one thing good...evict you curtly at 4.00 pm. :-(. This they do citing a busy evening (LOL...!). Impersonal service and a curt... read more
I was spending some months in India, Bangalore lazying around when suddenly my friend from Germany asked me to take over her regular tango "meetings" in Casa del Sol. I was delighted to hear that there was a tango scene in Bangalore and I could take part in this serving music :) So I went there and met very friendly people open to our initiative. Thanks to their help we had great time in Casa del Sol. Actually I met there a huge bunch of professionals from Finland sharing our love to tango, some German, Italian people, and so on. I had a lot of very heartening meetings there. The patio outside... read more
