artsnob Posted October 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 They are turning the LCS into an Evento center now with a full service restaurant 4 times as large as old one, and lots of music venues, it is loosin its charm... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunFan Posted October 24, 2023 Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 The Casa Linda opening at the LCS was a real event - live bands, hourederves, free soft drinks, wine and tequila. The Chapala Presidente gave a speech and the new American Consulate head was introduced. Breakfast and lunch served 9 to 3 PM Monday to Saturday.

There have been events at LCS as long as I've lived here and I never saw the "charm" in the inconsistent availability and quality of the food offerings there. Casa Linda is a class restaurant and, with enough support, can be a great addition to a community gathering space. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Review coming! The comments about "losing charm" leave me laughing. 🙃 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 Often 'charm' is associated with 'original, quaint or unassuming'. To me that is what the area has been so I'll vote for that badge. Will be interesting to see what the future holds for the LCS area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Spouse and I had lunch there today. Reasonable prices, generous portions, pleasant environment and service. I had a turkey and cheese sandwich and had to take half home. Very good food. Four stars!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexy I had a huge turkey and melted cheese sandwich on a dark rye bread; spouse had fajitas. Price for both around $300. Couldn't find a menu for this location on the web but the menu for the other location is on Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie Posted November 1, 2023 Report Share Posted November 1, 2023 A few weeks ago when LCS had the two day art fair - there was a soft soft opening. While getting used to the kitchen, etc Casa Linda was open for breakfast for whoever - artists, volunteers, etc The patio was fairly crowded and the entrees that I saw looked good. Casa Linda also offered to make lunch for just the few LCS volunteers who were there working and we had a selection of two items which we had to order several days ahead of time to be sure everything necessary was there as they were still setting up. Choice of hamburger on bun or chicken filet sandwich on sourdough.... both included lettuce,tomato. etc. Sides were choice of fries or salad. I worked both days so tried each and they were excellent... Large portions... Good burger and chicken filet freshly grilled...''Sourdough was wheat with nuts and something else... I forget. I'm going to the states tomorrow for 4 days but will get a menu when I return.....for those who know me - Queen + Adam Lambert are in Dallas on a U.S. tour. Rock on!

Voir dire Posted November 1, 2023 Report Share Posted November 1, 2023 Why doesn't someone contact the restaurant and ask them for a menu? Or, look at their Facebook page for a menu? Or, contact LCS? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted November 1, 2023 Report Share Posted November 1, 2023 You would think it would be available in the Lake Chapala Society section on this webboard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
