We attended their Christmas party, and the place looked fabulous. They are one of the areas historic structures, with a fabulous museumesque atmosphere and cowboy motif. While not inexpensive (entrees run about 25$) the roast beef was just right, their signature chicken was delicious, green beans, pasta, and other dishes were all very tasty and attractively presented. They sponsor many local activities, including our Special Olympics bocce team. A lovely warm place to visit and toast the holidays - or any time!

The waiter was nice. Unfortunately that is the only nice thing to say about the dinner we had there. The "World Famous Fried Chicken" was under seasoned and overcooked. I would rate it below what you can get at KFC. The veg was good. The biscuit, not that great. The veal was better than the fried chicken. It was tender but also bland. With so few restaurants to choose from in Orinda, we were really hoping Casa Orinda would be much better than it turned out to be.

Super friendly staff and bartenders, a great atmosphere for a late night drink or snack. People come from all over to eat the fried chicken dinner and rave about it, but I dont eat that kind of food. They have recently updated their menu and the vegetarian pasta dish was good. Gun collection and old west theme is a winner with kids, grandparents, and locals. Its classic food. Valet parking, right off the freeway.

Old Orinda at its Finest Youre not a "regular" unless youve been coming here since you were in diapers. Funny thing is, that applied to about half of the crowd that was there for dinner tonight. The staff is friendly and professional to all, regulars and newbies alike. Service 4-5 ⭐ depending on how busy they are. Atmosphere 5 ⭐. Food 5 ⭐ (its the only place I can confidently order veal). Overall 5 ⭐.

Great ambience is as far as the upside goes. Empty, yet terrible service, grossly overpriced and a steak that had not the flavor or proper cooking to match the price. Kids meals were three bites of pasta, hardly enough for a two year old. Needed to ask for for more, which has never happened at far less expensive restaurants. Final nail in the coffin, abysmal take on an Old Fashioned.

The fried chicken is a must try. Parking is valet only unless you street park nearby and walk. Usually will require dinner reservations. Very cool old west interior decoration and lots of history. It is a local establishment that is part of the culture. Must visit if you are in town briefly. Oh, try the brussel sprouts.

Known for its comfort food and particularly the fried chicken. Its good not to confuse abundance with quality but it certainly isnt bad. The service is good. The clientele is on the regular and mature side, with a few younger families to fill the dining areas.

We have been coming here for 34 years sat at bar for dinner first time. Met Geoff the bar tender had great experience. Geoff was attention to every detail before during and after our meal. Will be back to eat at bar again. The fried chicken was great as always.

Great old place! Oddly, no windows - sort of strange. Talked to some of the regulars, and this place has been here FOREVER. Best fried chicken Ive ever had. They mix a mean G&T also.

REMARKABLE! Everyone is attentive, but not overbearing. This is by far the best fried chicken I have had outside of my Grandmothers home!!! This is a must place to go.

Im generally not a big fried chicken fan. Heard the fried chicken here was amazing. Decided to try it. It was as advertised. Absolutely delicious.

Great old-feel bay area restaurant to eat. Large portions, great service, good prices with quick valet parking. We shall return a dozen more times.

Old school western motif restaurant with an emphasis on Italian food. The food is good and the fried chicken is awesome....especially the wings.

One of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area. Tasty dishes, honest portions at a fair price. Strange western motif but it works!

Good old traditional place, complete with hand made bar, divided dining rooms, uniformed staff and a country style setting.

Old west decor tastefully done. Great prime rib..but must have the fried chicken! Service is much better than expected.

I loved my treat here. The restaurant is hidden in a corner under SR-24 but that prime rib is worth finding it

Bar is fun. Its like going back in time. Im glad this place is still standing and still draws (older) people in.

Go for the fried chicken, stay for those sweet warlocks at the front. I gotta get another look at those things.
