Las Casuelas Nuevas in Rancho Mirage stands as a vibrant testament to the 52+ years of enduring spirit of Mexican tradition and hospitality. Its story begins in the culturally rich city of Mazatlán, Mexico, where founder Florencio “Del” Delgado’s grandmother crafted and perfected family recipes that have since become the heart of this beloved establishment.
