Casa De Bandini is a voted best Mexican restaurant in Carlsbad, CA, rooted in the essence of Colonial Mexican culture. Brought to life by Diane Powers, this second-generation restaurant serves authentic Mexican food alongside live mariachi entertainment and giant margaritas. The homemade tortillas, pressed fresh off the griddle in both flour and corn varieties, are a signature touch that keeps guests coming back. The expanded outdoor patio, complete with a waterfall, sets a festive tone for date nights, family gatherings, and group celebrations alike. A full bar, vegan and vegetarian options, and a healthy menu section round out the experience.
Casa De Bandini is located at 1901 Calle Barcelona, Carlsbad, CA 92009.
