Elevated
Mexican Cuisine

in the Heart of La Mesa

Chef/Partner Gabriela Lopez

You can taste the love at Casa Gabriela. At the core of Chef Gabriela Lopez’s cuisine are traditional Mexican recipes passed down from her Grandmother reimagined with a modern, elevated presentation.

Similar to the flavors on the menu, Casa Gabriela’s ambiance is warm, inviting and vibrant, with splashes of color everywhere. Located in the heart of La Mesa Village, the spacious outdoor garden is the perfect place to enjoy margaritas with friends or an intimate date night for two.

Our Menus

The innovative dishes offer something for everyone, including numerous seafood and vegetarian options. Some of Chef Gaby’s favorites include the Jalapeño & White Corn Lasagna, Birria de la Abuela Tacos and the “La Reina” Mariscos Molcajete for Two.
