Casa De Otay – The Casita (Optima St, Millenia) — Restaurant in Chula Vista

I was excited to go here, based on the reviews and photos, but unfortunately it fell short. We ended up throwing our coffees away after a couple sips and going somewhere else. The drinks were weak and watery, there were no pastries and one of the baristas was pretty abrasive. I was trying to order a basic iced espresso drink I enjoy and was met with a lot of attitude, telling me to order a latte instead like she thought I was trying to be cheap or something idk.. I make plenty of money and idgaf, charge me whatever you want to charge me, I just wanted a good drink. Apparently that was too much to ask. Also, there were SO many flies everywhere, it was GROSS. The straws were not wrapped/sealed and I didn’t want to use one considering flies were landing on them constantly....

Came here on a chill morning to read my book. Got a vanilla bourbon latte and a croissant, the latte was really good and on the sweeter side, so if you really want to taste the coffee I'd get it 1/2 sweet, but it was perfect for me! The croissant on the other hand was the worst croissant I've ever had, it tasted like soap for some reason. But the coffee was so good I wasn't mad about the croissant, maybe the other pastries are better. The atmosphere and the service are top notch, the gals that were working that day were super nice and friendly. Will...

More Local Coffee in the Eastlake and Otay Ranch area please!

Great quality coffee drinks in an up-and-coming part of the Millenia development. Have had their Casa, Vanilla Latte, and Cafe de Olla; all of which rivaled other great SD Coffee Spots like Bird Rock, Dark Horse, Holsem, etc.

Hoping to get my caffeine fix here on a regular basis and looking forward to their move from container to full size coffee shop...
