About

Our History

A deep love for Hollywood movies and Mexican food inspired Carlos Haro, Sr. to open Casablanca Restaurant in 1980. Casablanca Restaurant became a one-of-a-kind themed restaurant combining fine Mexican cuisine with the 1943 Academy Award winning movie, Casablanca, featuring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman.

The next generation, Carlos Haro, Jr., continues to provide excellent cuisine while introducing unique new entrées. While committed to providing each customer with a memorable dining experience, Carlos Haro, Jr. is sharing his passion for writing novels, which incorporate Mexican folklore, cuisine and music

The Original Margarita Cart

In 1995, Casablanca introduced the Tequila Express, the original margarita cart, bringing tableside margaritas crafted with your choice of premium tequila. Each margarita is expertly prepared with 3 ounces of top-quality tequila for a perfect balance of flavor and smoothness.

With a collection of over 2,000 tequilas, Casablanca Restaurant proudly offers one of the largest selections of tequilas in the world. At Rick's Tequileria, you're sure to find your favorite selection among our extensive offerings.
