Coming Soon New Lower East Side Location

  • Book Your Holiday Party Today
  • Make Entertaining Easy
  • Customized Dinner Parties

I'll Help You create the perfect event - whether you're entertaining 5 or 30 people; whether you want to learn to cook these dishes or simply enjoy them; whether you want formality or a casual luncheon. Every party is customized and unique. And, if your home is not ideal for your event, I can find the perfect place to host your party. Growing up in New York, I learned to create traditional Latin dishes in my mother's kitchen and developed a great love for the art of entertaining. I combined my two passions and began entertaining friends and clients with home cooked meals at my place. Soon I was known for throwing intimate dinner parties with eclectic groups, lively conversation and extraordinary meals. I never intended to do this full time, but the feedback was great.

User Reviews for a casa

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

10/15/2007 Posted by moonbaby888

We used A Casa Foods for our somewhat-impromptu engagement party and it was a ranging success. Melissa came over before the party and prepared everything, and was very helpful with all the setup so that we could get ourselves ready. People raved about all the food and proclaimed the sangria "the best they've ever had." We were looking for a Latin-themed cocktail party, and this is Latin food with an upscale edge-- delicious and beautifully presented. We hope to use her again for our rehearsal dinner. Delicious!

Pros: Great food, service that goes the extra mile, unique Latin-themed service

Cons: none!

A friend of mine (who's company had used them for a cocktail reception) recommended a casa to me and I can't tell you what an amazing experience it was! Melissa, the owner, made it SO easy and so fun -- I didn't lift a finger and my guests are still thanking me! It was intimate, fun and most importantly, delicious. All executed with great ease and professionalism. I will use a casa again and again. And again!

Pros: Delicious food and great staff.

Cons: can't think of any!
