Local Casablanca restaurant is reopening as Villa Paradiso, a new event space.
Casablanca operated as a restaurant serving “Silk Road” inspired bites and specialty cocktails. The venue also featured private karaoke lounges, called Casanova, where guests could reserve themed rooms for gatherings and parties.
The restaurant first opened in 2021 and drew inspiration from the 1942 film, Casablanca, incorporating vintage design elements along with Middle Eastern and Asian-inspired cuisine.
Casablanca was originally opened by the team behind Paradiso, which has since transformed the space into Villa Paradiso, an event venue that has already begun hosting private gatherings and events.
According to an Instagram post, the event space will host everything, “from birthday soirees and bridal showers to brand activations, rehearsal dinners, and unforgettable gatherings, Villa Paradiso offers a stunning setting just steps from the heart of Bishop Arts.”
Villa Paradiso is located 200 N. Bishop Ave, Suite 113. Event bookings can be made through Paradiso’s website.
