CASA VERDE
CASA VERDE - Ramos
#69 Lim Tian Teng Street(formerly V. Ranudo), Ramos Cebu City, Philippines, 6000
+63 32 253.6472
Established in August 2002, CASA VERDE is a chain of family-owned restaurants in Cebu City. Spanish for “green house”, CASA VERDE's name was influenced by the owners' Spanish roots and the color of the Ramos Branch, which used to be one of the family's ancestral homes.
Originally, the Ramos Branch was supposed to be just a small canteen that catered to the residents of the 2nd floor dormitory and some students from nearby colleges. Through word-of-mouth and recommendations by family and friends, the humble canteen soon became a full-scale restaurant. After almost a decade and three branches later, CASA VERDE has grown into one of Cebu’s most popular dining destinations.
"Value for Money" has always been the restaurant’s philosophy. CASA VERDE believes that everyone deserves to enjoy great food and quality service at reasonable prices in a comfortable atmosphere. It’s casual dining at its best.
CASA VERDE is a perfect place to let your hair down and enjoy a steak or two with family and friends. The ambiance is simple and casual, with knickknacks and collectibles from the personal collections of the owners. It’s also interesting to note that all of the restaurant’s signature dishes are named after some members of the family. We bring home-style comfort food to the next level.
The next time you’re in the mood for some good food, head on down to the CASA VERDE branch nearest you and try our best-selling ribs, mouth-watering steaks, sumptuous pasta, and sinful desserts. It’s a dining experience that truly exceeds expectations.

Watermelon Salad
PHP168
A refreshing combination of watermelon cubes, served over crisp lettuce, mango strips, jicama and nuts, drizzled with our sesame-seed dressing.
At first, you might think it’s weird thinking that watermelon and mayonnaise would not compliment. But their dressing is not a simple mayo and its taste is really unique. Its dressing tastes sweet that it really compliments watermelon and mango. This salad is really a good appetizer yet can also be good for dessert :D It can serve 2-3 persons.
Chicken Raffitas
PHP238
Grilled chicken with fajita vegetables topped with cheese. Can serve 2-3 persons.
Brianʼs Ribs
PHP250
"Once you taste me, youʼll never forget me…"
Their best seller! Baked pork ribs with a sweet, tangy Piquet Sauce served with rice and corn and carrots.
This is their best seller and you’ll never wonder why when you tasted it. This pork rib is so tender and savory.
Its size can serve 2-3 persons, very affordable, isn’t it?
Death By Chocolate
PHP188
This dessert is to die for—chocolate and nutty rocky road ice cream mixed with chocolate bar bits on a bed of chocolate cookie crust. Drizzled with chocolate syrup.
