Where do we start? Well, I’ve done my research. First let’s address ownership and management. You will never ever be thanked for visiting from Scott the Owner, or the heavy set GM Kirk Hopkins. They are extremely unfriendly, and rude people. They need a serious attitude adjustment or do us all a favor and get out of the restaurant business. Kirk Hopkins is a disgrace. From his unclean appearance, to the way he belittles his female/male employees in front of the customers. You will see what I mean when you see Kirk Hopkins, his shirt couldn’t even pass a health inspection there is so much food drippings on it! You can’t believe he is the face/GM of Casa or any restaurant for that matter. The staff is so fearful or hateful of Management(Owner/GM) that they said they are walking on eggshells most the time, because they’re not sure what type of mood management will be in. I personally witnessed Kirk/GM tear into these tiny waitresses to the point they are in tears, and Scott/Owner. My advice: Save your money and go somewhere else on Mill Avenue where you will be appreciated, and not have to witness the food splattered shirt on the unclassy rude GM Kirk Hopkins, and extremely rude owner Scott. DONTGOTOCASAORSHADYPARK!!!

Hungry during the day? Looking for a relaxing spot with awesome service and a unique but delicious menu… C.a.s.a. is the spot to be at. They have a large selection of craft beers, an out door patio: with tvs, fans/heaters to accommodate at any weather condition. Point blank… If you have free time during the day and your else where… Your fucking up. Shout out to the awesome bartenders and chefs for doing superb.

OMG where to even begin… This will be an interesting review to whoever interested… Fiancé and I arrive at around 8pm yesterday(Sunday). Guy who carded us was nice and friendly– said to get a table we would have to go upstairs… as the entire area downstairs was occupied by nasty, and I mean nasty girls giving lap dances to strangers most likely(seen this all before lol). So off we go upstairs. All we really wanted was a quick dinner and a drink or two. Took a table and realized after 5 – 7 minutes that getting service was going to be a hassle… Idiots working here apparently. Finally we were acknowledged, ordered two burritos, the Chinese takeout and some pork with Mac n cheese burrito. The food was the only positive about this place. Got two drinks as well. Food arrives… No silverware. No napkins. Ummmm we are eating burritos??? Fiancé goes up and asks if she has silverware. All she says is «Nope.» Ummm how about you go get some? Why this place hires apparently incompetent people is beyond me. Btw, this girl has the haircut to her shoulders with the half top knot on her head. Yeah, best interest to let this one go. Maybe she was drunk is all we could come up with. Never got silverware. We’re about finished with dinner and a couple walks up to our table. The guy straight up asks us if we want to buy cocaine. Fiancé responds with a simple, «Not a good idea buddy, I have a DEA license.» Guy gets scared and says don’t say anything. Fiancé has to walk to the bar to get the check from the worst waitress we’ve ever experienced, finally gets it, and we’re about ready to go. Cocaine guy says, «would you be mad if your girlfriend made out with mine?» That was our cue to leave so that’s what we did. This place is suchhhhhhh a joke, it’s almost laughable. Our waitress didn’t give a sh*t, good luck with a real job if you can’t even handle that one sweetheart. The place is filled with low lives. What a joke! Glad we got out of there and we WONTEVER be back. I’ll make sure to tell all my friends and family as well. Disgusting

I have respect to this establishment and i love the bands and music. BUT now I am lead to believe that the security-related staff is young and unprofessional with a bad attitude and disrespectful. I would like go into further detail, I always come and watch shows never usually a problem. Last night I was a witness to A horrible situation that was handled in properly, there’s innocent bystanders walking on the sidewalk and security guards pushing random men and women away for a confrontation that was started by a security guard. A GUARDHITSOMEONEWALKINGBYINTHEFACE. Absolutely unprofessional and then afterward the security guard brags about the situation like it’s some sort of accomplishment that he manhandled someone. Unprofessional to the fullest. Disappointed a innocent bystander and will definitely make me think twice about coming here again.

Came her with my girlfriend for a Friday afternoon lunch and drinks… must say… awesome! The food is fantastic and they have a ton of vegan options. Personally I had the terryaki chicken burrito and it was great! The girlfriend got the vegan carne asade burrito and loved it. Make sure to check out their deal with the«booze» cup and save yourself a ton on mixed drinks. Our bartender, Misael, was awesome and very attentive. We will be coming back!!!

I went to CASA with a friend on Friday to get a couple drinks. We had tried to go here a few weeks back, but the place was way too packed. On this night, we were able to sit up at the bar under a heater, which was perfect. This place has a surprisingly nice cocktail menu, with many imaginative options. I had their take on a Moscow mule, the light and stormy. It was fairly tasty, but not fantastic. My friend had their take on a white Russian… and this thing was fabulous! It was a white Russian with rumchata in it and cinnamon on the top… so good! They also have a wide variety of beers on tap. My friend was talking about one of the beers and before I could tell her to ask for a taster, she had one… now that’s good service. I’d like to come back to try some of their interesting food options(mac and cheese burrito… oh ya!).

This place is a shit show! They literally sell buckets of alcohol to all the belligerent night owls in this tiny tiny establishment that is outside. It is 2 levels but super small, and sometimes they host block parties that get super crazy. That’s the only reason I go here is to see sick djs. Otherwise I would not come. There’s no bathrooms, people are over served, but the drinks aren’t that expensive and there’s a cool patio upstairs. It’s just really really dirty and the crowd is annoying!

Lovely patio on Mill avenue with a great craft beer selection and interesting food. Beers run about $ 6 with $ 1 off at happy hour and burritos are around $ 9. You can take any burrito item and make it a taco– interesting twist. My boyfriend got the green chili pork mac and cheese and really enjoyed it. I stuck with the appetizer bean burrito which was more than enough! Ask for the free chips and salsa with purchase of a beverage. I thought it was funny that 10 taco items are strictly sold at Wednesday taco time and not the entire time? Maybe place it on a separate menu so it’s not as confusing?

I’m giving one star because of their anti firearms policy. Even after speaking with the owner about it, he explained to me that if he didn’t have the sign up that Tempe police would bully him. I find that very hard to believe. This is Arizona for gods sake. He also tried to tell me he was for firearms and was an ex navy seal. When I asked him where he was stationed and his M.O. He had just told me «around the world» I find it hard to believe he was stationed anywhere. I will not return until he stands up for our right and takes that sign down.

I really don’t come here for any other reason than to sit outside and enjoy a bucket of their beer with friends. Their outdoor patios are what really entices customers, not really anything else. I’ve never had good service there, the food is alright, definitely more enjoyable after a few buckets of their drinks. The service is absolutely abominable, but I don’t blame the servers/bartenders, I blame the owner who is drunk and obnoxious 95% of the time. I will come back, but will do my best to avoid sitting next to the owner who made his intention of the evening giving himself and surrounding patrons lung cancer from his disgusting chain smoking habit. Gross.

I have been here a few times for drinks, but was worried about coming here to eat after reading some of the reviews. A co-worker told me it was good so I decided to give their Taco Wednesday a try. I had the Chronic Taco and the Fried Chicken/Mac and Cheese Taco. The chronic was just average, but the other taco was great! The chipotle sauce was surprising spicy and the chicken was very moist. The waitress was very nice and gave us free chips even though we didn’t order drinks. The food came out pretty quickly too. Overall a solid and filling lunch for $ 10.

Get the buckets and the crazy burritos! Great place to Sunday Funday but at night or on slow times the place has a strange crowd of townies with dogs lol But bring a crew and get a round or 3 of buckets and it’s like they’re not even there!

Casa sunba is a unique location and concept. It takes a lot of guts to have a outdoor restaurant serving lunch in Tempe in the summer. There is also a indoor area with a concert venue however during my lunch visit it wasn’t open so that will be another review. First of all the beer selection is pretty decent with several varieties on tap. There is also a full bar. Even though this is a outdoor only place, the abundance of misters and fans keep it pleasant out. The food is also where the uniqueness of this place really shines. The majority of the choices are burritos but definitely not the normal kind. Mac and cheese, fried chicken dinner and Chinese takeout are some of the options. I had the BBQ chicken dinner burrito as it was the special of the day and although it was good it did suffer slightly by the mac and cheese and cole slaw in the burrito taking a lot more real estate then the chicken and really overpowering it. My son was joining me for this trip and he had the vegan steak burrito and it was excellent. I don’t know what they are using for their steak substitute but it is amazing, it tastes and feels exactly like real meat and has a delicious flavor. The service while adequate was somewhat lacking but I think this was mostly because the bar was only staffed by one bartender and she seemed to be having a hard time keeping up with a busy lunch hour. All in all a decent place with a unique concept that I will be trying again.

This place is fun. The staff are friendly and welcoming — seems like a good place to work. We were there mid-day on a weekend and the crowd was mostly younger, except for the older guy that came to the bar to escape his wife for the day(just a guess) and walked around talking to random people about random things and seemed to really enjoy himself. Good beer selection and they have a 32 oz. bucket gimmick that looks like a good idea if your intention is to get drunk. AND there’s a Vegan section on the menu. Mr. H asked about sides and the waitress said the burritos are huge and a side would go to waste. The burritos are pretty big, but Mr. H needed a few bites of mine and a beer. So if you’re a hungry man or have the appetite of one, you might want to order some chips with your burrito, or have two beers. Burritos are Chipotle size. I ordered the Humanitarian burrito, which is like a salad burrito — fresh, tasty, filling, but still felt healthy-ish. Mr. H’s Solo Mexicana burrito was equally tasty and filling, but a little heavier and he loved it. Great vegan variety/options. We will definitely be back and would love to take friends and family here(probably not at night on a weekend, though, because, well, Mill Ave.). We didn’t see the inside, or the roof top patio, but the street level patio is similar to a Dos Gringos without all the bright colors. They had misters on the patio that spray outward in the direction of the sidewalk at chest level, which worked because it was breezy. Smoking could definitely be a problem here because they allow it on the patio and even if someone who’s smoking walks by, you can’t avoid it. Wish smokers would use a more subtle vaporizer over smoking anything in public — but either way it’s all air pollution for the rest of us. The patio is dog friendly, but it is not enclosed so make sure your pups don’t escape and run into traffic!

Giving this place 3 stars because I have not tried their food but their drinks are great and an awesome deal. I came and tried the margarita bucket and was impressed…$ 10 for a bucket of a margarita is an awesome deal and they were delicious. I was not impressed with the service though. It took forever for us to get a menu and to ever see our server, we had to hunt him down for our check because he rarely visited us.

I had a great time at Casa this afternoon while the manager of Casa told me to «eat shit and fuck off». We were enjoying our afternoon at Casa when the neighboring table decided it would be a prime time to light up a cigarette. I don’t take kindly to inconsiderate smokers thinking they can smoke wherever they want so I told the guy to put his cigarette out. He decided that his right to poison himself was more important that anything else and jumped up and immediately got in my face. This guy started yelling at me while I stood my ground and said to the guy that if he touched me I would love to defend myself by any means necessary and get the nearby cops involved. He got really aggravated and kept yelling at me a few inches away from my face. Eventually he realized he wasn’t going to win the fight and calmed himself down. A minute later the manager came over and started yelling at our group. I told the manager what happened: how the guy at the table next to use tried to assault me on their property. The manager didn’t care to hear my side of the story and instead kicked me and my friends out of Casa because I told the guy to stop smoking. Fortunately I can use the internet to find out what the law in Arizona is with smoking on a patio. I’ll quote from : «For an area to be designated as an outdoor patio where smoking is permitted, the area must meet the requirements defined in the rules A.A.C. R9−2 – 108. This area must be a contiguous area of the public place or place of employment and controlled by the proprietor of the public place or place of employment. This patio area must have at least one side that consists of: … — Have no overhead covering or an overhead covering that consists of: a. Permeable material, or b. A combination of open space permeable material» The crazy thing is Casa has an overhead covering that is a combination of open space permeable material. Great thing they are aware of Arizona laws! I came back and asked if the owner was available to let them know about their violation of Arizona laws. Instead I was greeted by the same bouncer/“manager” that kicked us out earlier. I tried to tell him that Casa was breaking the law and he laughed in my face and literally told me to fuck off. Very professional. I have reported Casa to the Arizona Department of Health Services and I hope they do an investigation. I will never return to Casa after the ridiculous treatment I received from the so called«management». I felt like I was talking to a toddler in the middle of a tantrum rather than a manager of a bar on Mill Ave.

My friends and I chose to go during the day, and went to the upstairs seating to avoid the crowd. There was fake grass upstairs, and the weather was nice; overall, the view was pretty. However, there weren’t many covers upstairs, so I had to squint and shield my eyes from the sun for most of the time. The service was good — I thought that the server checked in quite often and was nice. I ordered the pineapple cider, but was slightly disappointed; it was pretty much juice and not much alcohol was evident. I didn’t like the drink because it was way too sweet — I would rather buy the ciders from the grocery store than drink at CASA. The prices are on the medium-high range, as expected on Mill, Nothing was offending about the place, but the reason I’m giving this place three stars is because the bar was just a-ok. I’ve been to better bars before, and this one just didn’t feel special. I wouldn’t avoid CASA but I wouldn’t seek it either.

Went here with a few friends for Sunday Funday, seating is hard to find so you may have to stand until you can grab a table… But the food is amazing! We ordered chips & guac to share for starters. The guac was made fresh & had a lot of flavor. For entrees my friends & I shared the Mac N Cheese burrito & chinese takeout &YES, it is as tasty as it sounds. The burritos are large & decently priced. Service was decent & fairly fast. Great chill atmosphere if you are just looking to relax with some buddies… & also great live band! If anything I will be back for the bomb burritos!

We had four parties convening on Mill Ave last Saturday for the Territorial Cup basketball game and, not wanting too much of a hassle, we agreed on the ol’ «first ones to find a good set up texts everyone else and we’ll meet there.» Jenny and I were the first to arrive and, after vetoing a couple chain establishments, found a table on the patio at CASA Sunba. Our server was excellent, discussing the draft and mixed drink selections with us, and taking care of our party as members trickled in. I enjoyed a couple beers and our friends had the street tacos, which they said were very good. The patio was the perfect place to people watch on a gorgeous game day. Plus the patio is dog-friendly which, as a dog lover, is a huge plus to me.
