Casaléna is Woodland Hills' chic new Mediterranean hotspot with five distinct dining areas, where you can savor exquisite dishes and crafted cocktails in a stylish ambiance.
"Casaléna has made the most of the former Villa space, serving a coastal Mediterranean menu in the dining room and open-air patio. The outdoor area looks like it belongs at Restoration Hardware, with a fountain in the center, flanked by neatly-trimmed hedges. The menu blends Mediterranean and Italian influences with dishes like stracciatella with spicy honey and pistachio, fried squash blossoms, and sweet corn agnolotti. During the weekend, Casaléna serves a brunch of Benedicts, shakshuka, smoked salmon toast, and French toast. A separate menu is available at the bar with casual bites like a crispy chicken sandwich, hamachi crudo, and truffle fries." - Rebecca Roland

Now, the children of the original owners have taken over the restaurant, transforming it into the Mediterranean-inspired Casaléna. The upscale indoor dining room, complete with a statement chandelier overhead and oversized art on the walls, is complemented by a verdant outdoor patio.
