nothing spanish about it
We went there for the Sunday lunch buffet (Rs. 550 plus tax), which includes unlimited beer, wine and sangria. Unless you drink LOTS of wine and beer, its totally not worth it. Almost all the food was inedible and not at all spanish. I've been to Spain so I should know. The Sangria had gone bad, the milkshakes were really Nandini bottled flavored milk, the made to order spanish omelet was burnt and extra salty with huge lumps of potato thrown in, the made to order pizza was as thin as a wafer, the made to order sandwiches can be easily made at home and the seafood paella was nauseating. The best things were the icecream and the chocolate mousse which were probably not house-made. Service was very slow. I can go on and on about the rest of the dishes, but why bother? I'm really puzzled with the other reviews.

Great Lounge
I had been to Del Sol once before, a couple of years ago, and didn't like it too much. I decided to give it another shot last week, and decided that it is, after all, a pretty good place.
The service is really, really friendly, and this is something you won't find in any other lounge in this price range in Bangalore. Kudos to the Casa folks for outdoing the competition on the service front! The environs are great, but you *have* to sit outdoors to make the most of it! The outdoor deck has been very tastefully decorated, but retains a lovely, homely aura with wicker chairs, simple tables, plants, and a great view of the city, especially at night. Drinks are available at the usual prices, with Indian beer at Rs. 110 (pint) or 150 (bottle). Cocktails are between Rs. 250 and 400. There's also a friendly hookah guy with a good selection of waterpipes. After we'd downed a few drinks, the manager came over and asked if we'd be interested in 'the flamer'. This sounded too intriguing to miss, and so we headed over to the bar, where both the manager and barman chatted with us whilst preparing a mad-scientist-like rig of glasses, mugs, flames, and liqeurs. The 'flamer' is basically a very elaborate flaming cocktail, and is quite an experience. The downside is that it gets over in a flash, and will cost you as much as two cocktails, though this flamer was made for consumption by two people.
One caveat though is the food; not to say it's bad or anything, but the size of the servings left me wanting. I strongly suggest you dine at Piccola downstairs, which is still a Leviathan when it comes to filling and reasonably-priced Italian food. Del Sol is great to lounge in with a few drinks after dinner.

Eat drink and make merry
That's pretty much the theme of this wonderful place.
The ambiance is warm and celebratory and the food just perfect.
They have a corporate meal deal on weekdays (I think ~Rs.160) which includes a welcome drink, some tapas, salad, soup, entree and dessert. If you're going a la carte, try their pizzas and salads.
Casa Del Sol doubles into a social destination in the evenings - they have salsa nites, live music, pottery artists and lots of other fun events. For a perfect meal by yourself, come here on weekdays. For merriment, come evenings or try their Sunday brunch (~Rs.600?) which has an interesting fare and abuzz with social events and fun things to do - great to go with your family.
During Diwali, Christmas and such festive occassions the place gets most beautiful since it's partially open-air!

Lively atmosphere, average food
A very nice ambiance - lounge in sofas either indoors or outdoors - live music in the weekends. A good place to meet for a business meeting. Food, be it tapas or pastas, is very average
