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 waitress was awesome despite there being challenges with our dining experience. I always choose a ribeye cut of steak and asked for it to be cooked medium. My steak wasn’t very marbled, nor juicy. It was overcooked as well. Tough to cut. The sides were nice tho. The WiFi went down, which we then had to fill out paperwork to be charged. It felt a little unnerving seeing that cc theft is so high.

    I celebrated my birthday at Joey’s, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! Megan, our waitress, was incredibly kind, attentive, and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy the evening. Charity, the manager, even took the time to personally come over, meet us, and wish me a happy birthday, which made the night feel even more special. The food was delicious, the service was outstanding, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. I highly recommend Joey’s for any special occasion—or just a great night out!

    Our cook Hunter was super chill and fun. He made the experience great. Had to wait about 30 mins after my reservation time which was a bummer but i guess since they were busy it’s normal.
