My daughter chose to go here for her birthday after having a previous good experience here. The food is always great, the staff always friendly and prices reasonable. Will definitely be going back.
Cafe Casita was a great experience, it is set in an old pub but is very well decorated and a nice place to sit. The food was great and in line with other Italian restaurants I’ve been to. The price was on the higher end but all 4 of us enjoyed the different dishes we ordered. We will be visiting again!
I feel so lucky that Cafe Casita is a 5 minute walk from where I live, this is the second time I have visited this place with my wife since moving to the area and it is amazing. I believe it is a family owned Italian restaurant with a rustic Italian theme inside. You need to book as it is always busy, and rightly so, the food is absolutely amazing, tasty and is presented beautifully. Listen to the mature lady if she suggests a dish as my wife had the scallops that she suggested and I was left wishing I had the same. The outside of the restaurant could do with a slight uplift but when inside that really doesn't matter.
First time visiting, we were greeted by friendly staff who were very attentive but not in an uncomfortable way. Food was delicious and the portions were very generous. Will definitely be going back.
4 of us went here for a birthday meal. Neither of us have ever been but heard good things about it. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was good for a Saturday evening, a lot of families and friends having a meal. The service was quick and the food was lovely. We shared some ciabatta and bruschetta for starters. These were nice but there was so much garlic on the bruschetta. I personally thought it was an overload but some may think differently. The mains we had there pasta dishes and a chicken main. We all thought these were lovely, no complaints with the mains. We then all had a dessert which was INCREDIBLE!! The profiteroles were the best :) I want to say there were homemade they were they good, but not too sure. Recommend going here for a decent Italian meal which was reasonably priced and delicious. We did have a bottle of wine and two pints with the meal plus 3 coffees, so we did go overboard haha. The place itself was beautifully decorated with old fashioned features. I will be going back here again and trying different dishes.
Been wanting to come here for a very long time after driving/walking past it, and my partner has wanted to come here since she’s moved here. Hand sanitizer upon arrival with track & trace check in code. All the staff are very welcoming, friendly, helpful and all very masks. The lady we had who served us throughout our time (apologise I forgot her name began with A I think), she couldn’t have been anymore helpful. With a very wide range of food, she told us everything on the menu was very nice as she has tried everything! The decor of the restaurant is what I’d expect in a typical Italian restaurant, very rustic and has a feel of being in Italy. To start I had the belly pork with Jack Daniels sauce, I’ve never tried belly pork and it was so tasty and very tender. My other half had the goats cheese in filo pastry which was also very nice. For mains, I had the Risotto con salsiccia (spicy sausage, peppers, onions, garlic, tomato and chilli). It was so nice I’m glad it was a big portion as I wanted more! I don’t think the sausage was spicy but overall I was very impressed. Other half had a cheese chicken & mushroom calzone which was also nice. We had a nice bottle of white wine which absolutely complimented the whole meal. For dessert I had sorbet and other half had a deep fried cannoli once again both really nice. Reasonable priced meal for two people, and very highly recommended. Plenty parking and we will be back soon with our family. Very authentic home cooked Italian food and Cafe Casita is way better than some of these chain restaurants!!
Would definitely recommend the food was amazing, all presented beautifully, reasonably priced, you will not be disappointed. First time eating here won't be the last.
Lovely restaurant, great service and tasty fresh cooked food .
