El Palmar on Mission Avenue is our second restaurant, run by the same family.
Casa De Lago is family-owned and has been part of Granite Bay since 2021, but the cooking goes back much further. Our kitchen brings more than twenty years of experience to the classics: carne asada marinated in our family recipe, chile verde simmered in homemade tomatillo sauce, mole poblano made from scratch. Generous portions, honest cooking, and service that remembers your name.
