The Chef reccomendwe come to Casalingo every time we come to Brighton. food is fantastic, true authentic italian food. hospitality always so warm and welcoming. Recommend everyone to try this fabulous restaurant as i know you won't be disappointed. upon entry you are greeted warmly and offered seating where you would like to be if available. you are offered olives and bread as complimentary which is the same in Italy and they dont charge. they will help you decide if you are not sure and wont try to rush you either. food is served fairly promptly depending on how busy they are. they will always come up a couple times to check if all is ok too. all in all this place is a gem.
Our favourite restaurant in Brighton. Food always amazing and the staff always make you feel so welcome. Have been eating there for the past 20 odd years just can’t fault it.
My wife and i are staying in Brighton for a couple of nights. As our first night was Valantines we had booked a couple of weeks in advance. We selected Casalingo as the reviews on TA were good and walking distance from hotel. Lovely welcome and ambiance. Excellent menu. My wife had mozzarella & veal and i mushrooms & calves livers with a selection of vegtables, zucchini ,& saute potatoes. The food was beautifully cooked and presented. With our coffee we enjoyed a drink oth. With the super wine our dinning experience could not have been better. Thanks all for a lovely evening.
We went to Casalingo for an early valentine's meal, and were not disappointed. We were met with a warm reception from the manager and shown to our seats. I went for the steak which was cooked to perfection and the lady had the pea risotto which was nice and light and packed full of flavour. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and super good makes this a must for anyone.
Words can't describe how much we enjoyed our visit to Casalingo. We went for a graduation dinner and it did not disappoint at all, in fact we could hardly leave as we were so full. The snails, Gnocchi with spinach and four cheeses + the sorbet are just some of our recomendationa. The staff was also very welcoming, had a very nice blonde woman waitering us, unfortunately we did not catch a name. Highly recommend going her.
Me and my partner visit Casalingo quite regularly, whether it’s a special occasion or date night and it is our go-to Italian in Brighton. We have never had a bad meal from their extensive menu and specials. Their sharing starter with mixed fish is amazing and the staff are always friendly and remember our favourite Prosecco whenever we visit. Some recommendations from their main menu would be their carbonara, the halibut and the gamberoni al picante, their steaks are also very good (served medium rare of course). Always good to check what is on the specials which is what my partner usually goes for and would highly recommend the Osso Buco or the Scampi Pavarotti.
Went to Casalingo after seeing very good ratings and feedback on trip advisor. We had dinner quite late (about 9pm) but despite being busy they accommodated and we’re very friendly. Nice restaurant, small and cosy with a nice indecent family run vibe. All the waiters we spoke to seemed to be Italian too and the service was good. The only downside was that there isn’t too much obviously available to vegans and when asked the waiter informed me I could tailor some of the dishes. I ordered the risotto which unfortunately came out with cheese on it but they were very good and took it back and bought out a new one (maybe just sans cheese so I don’t know if there was other non-vegan ingredients) but it was nice all the same.
Pouring with rain , very hungry and an unusually empty restaurant as no-one else had been stupid enough to venture out . Treated warmly and well and given very generous portions served with a smile . No pizza if that’s what you seek but plentiful pasta and risotto along with fish and meat. Suggest a non rainy weekend you should book as clearly has return customers of which I ll be one
We visited here to celebrate a 40th birthday. The staff were very attentive and welcoming. The food was also great and overall was a lovely evening. Thank you!
Felt like genuinely home made versions of the Italian dishes that everyone knows and loves. My family of 4 enjoyed a lovely early dinner on Saturday. Fresh tasting, cleanly and nicely presented. Good garlic mushrooms (would have been even better with more wine reduction). Very good garlic bread, very good gnocchi, very good pasta, very good lasagne. Very good panna cotta and cassata. Portions of all items are significant. Small but decent wine list, I would have liked more choice of premium wines but then many people probably wouldn't be bothered about that which makes it costly to hold in stock. Felt like a fair price at the end. That said, in common with how many Italian restaurants used to be the bill doesn't itemise what you've had, just the totals for starters, main etc so unless you want to sit and go through it with a menu you have to assume it's correct. I have no reason to suppose it's not correct but these days it's quite unusual not to automatically be able to see and check the bill. Doesn't bother me, but certainly my wife finds it annoying :-) Very friendly and efficient service.
Had a great night last night at Casalingo - simple great Italian rub - just how we like it - thanks guys 🥂
This is probably the best Italian food we have had outside of Italy. Service was amazing too! A fantastic find and felt so welcomed. Thank you for our fantastic experience!
Small Italian in a street full of restaurants. There were 6 of us down for a weekend football trip and food was good - I had spaghetti alle vongole main course which was excellent as well as one of my favourites! Only real negative was it was very difficult to check the bill as all lumped together as starters, mains, drinks . Recommend booking for a weekend evening as limited tables and very busy/ popular .
What a lovely find booked by my daughter for husband's 70th. Four of us were welcomed as old friends and dined in comfort on superb 3 courses. Between us we had veal, salmon and duck dishes - beautifully served, tasty and enjoyed at our leisure. Dessert came with a candle and Happy Birthday playing over the background music for birthday boy. A very enjoyable dining experience with hospitable, courteous and attentive staff. Loved the fact that the owner and waiter took turns to eat at a table in the dining room with us - so Italian!
We were here on a Saturday night and had a great meal - we both had the soup and sea bass. The service was friendly and we weren't rushed.
Delicious, authentic Italian meal. Very traditional. Super service. Close your eyes and you’re in Rome.
Just got back to our hotel satisfied and smiling after a great meal at Casalingo. The portions were generous, the price was very good and the atmosphere friendly and relaxed. I was recommended the season special of Osso Buco which I've not come across before and I was extremely happy with the venison so tender it flaked off the bone and melted in the mouth. All our other dishes were all made to a very good standard with obviously decent ingredients, I'd definitely recommend Casalingo to anyone!
First night in Brighton so wanted somewhere near to my hotel and stumbled across this lovely little Italian 2 minutes away. No reservation needed and I was quickly seated. A decent choice of main courses that all sounded rather nice and I didn’t have long to wait after ordering for my food to arrive. The portion was a good size and was cooked very well. It was excellent value for money. A few dessert choices available which again arrived at my table promptly and for three scoops of sorbet I felt a little pricey at £6.50 however tasted nice and didn’t take me long to polish off. Overall a pleasant atmosphere with nicely presented food. Certainly somewhere I would dine again.
we visit often and am never disappointed with the food and service. was in there Sat and had the Pasta ragu beef gorgeous. my wife always has r]the steak with blue sauce. Always book first on a Saturday night

We make a point of visiting Casalingo when in Brighton. We have been going for over 20 years and it is still owned by the same family. The food is consistently good, staff are lovely and it is reasonably priced
