I've wanted to eat here for a long time, so the early evening menu offer really appealed to me, and it was a real treat. It's also great value at £30pp.
Everything was exceptional. The service, and the food.
If you go, be sure to order the Semolina Parmesan...as an extra. It is incredible. I loved it all.
After an 11/10 meal at Paco Tapas in February I was soo excited to eat at Casa however I did leave slightly disappointed. The prices at Casa and Paco have increased quite a bit since February but I was happy
to pay, hoping my meal would be just as delicious, and for the most part it was. The cocktails were amazing, all the pasta dishes were absolutely delicious, the pork chop was cooked perfectly, as was the fish.
The reason for the 4 instead 5 rating is for the few dishes that were nice but not nice enough for the price point (not quite chicken Milanese, lions mane Milanese, chicory and anchovy).
Overall the meal was delicious, however at £120pp I would expect every dish to be amazing and unfortunately it wasn’t
Amazing food in a great location.
We came here as we had a voucher gifted to us, and were very grateful when the bill came as its pricey! The menu is in Italian so we had to ask to be talked through it but the staff were really helpful and only too happy to oblige.
They recommended 5 dishes each from across the menu (starters, cured meats, pasta, meat, vegetables) which was fine for us. For two ppl with a bottle of wine this came out at c.£150, so fine if you feel like splashing out.
High points on the menu for us were the chicken-stuffed olives, and the asparagus with egg and Parmesan- so good!
Managed to get a booking for the menu del giorno on a Saturday just before the cutoff at 18:30. Fantastic value for money, very attentive and friendly service, a lovely setting and great atmosphere.
The food was excellent - we started with a gin spritz then had focaccia with aubergine dip, fried semolina with Parmesan (extra charge but sooo worth it!), chicken, garlic and sides of leek gratin and a side salad followed by a tiramisu ice cream cake.
Really great restaurant! We had the chefs special which was absolutely the right decision.
The food was traditional Italian but elevated and the flavours were great! The cocktails were perfect!
The service was fantastic and staff were very attentive. Only thing that was slightly off putting was the music. Early 2000s pop didn’t feel the right vibe for this place.
But overall loved the rest of our visit!
First time eating here and was the best spanish/Italian tapas I've ever had outside of Spain! I'd give it 10 stars if I could!
We chose the chefs choice tasting selection and it did not disappoint!
13 dishes that were all fantastic and left you wanting more!
Best dish was the double agnolotti with pumpkin puree served with a burnt butter sauce. OUTSTANDING!
Service was excellent and their gin & tonic selection and wine list was amazing too!
Definitely will return!
Some wonderful dishes interspersed with a few more lacklustre options. The discrepancy in price between different plates was bewildering at time. We loved the sardine ragu, mushroom pasta and hake.
The service was quite strange. Some really friendly, more low-key folks and some more traditional fine-dining folks made for a strange vibe. Combined with the genre-fluid and too-loud music it was all a bit unsettling.
Nonetheless it was a good meal, and if you're not too fussed about price then it's worth checking out.
It's Italian tapas of the highest quality i.e the Italian version of Paco.
My second visit since opening & both occasions have been top quality. I would recommend going as a table of 4 so you can really enjoy the variety of the menu.
The restaurant decor is subtle & refined, it has been really thought through with quality fixtures, fittings & lighting.
Acoustics are amazing, the music is of excellent quality without being over bearing. You can hear the music & still have a conversation with your fellow guests & hear the front of house staff. The playlist was a mixture of classic jazz funk, soul & hip hop.
Service is attentive, personable, fast, efficient & friendly.
The food is exceptional, Peter Sanchez-Iglesias & Joel Breakwell always showcase some of the best fish cookery around & Casa does not disappoint!
I would like to see a more adventurous wine list showcasing some of the great Italian natural wines.

This little gem is a delight to the senses, a perfect dinner from start to finish. We were greeted at the door by a friendly host who showed us to our seats and took our coats, the restaurant was modern and clean without being sterile or pretentious. Our waitress was lovely and helpful and explained the concept to us, was back speedily for our drinks order and as we had been studying the menu and new what we wanted we also got our food order in fairly quickly. Food came out at the perfect pace - we had a small table and it never felt crowded, usually as we finished one dish the next one would come along so the timing was impeccable. As there was two of us
we ordered just over the recommended 4 dishes pp, so we went for Caponata with Focaccia, Mushroom arancini , Fennel sausage garganelli, Double Agnolotti - pumpkin / Gorgonzola cream, Monkfish in basil dill and parsley, Slow cooked overnight beef cheek with paprika, Polenta fries, Leek gratin and for desert Pannacotta with candied pine nuts and
Tiramisu. We also had a glass of rose pet nat and a bottle of Primitivo. Every dish was packed with flavour, had incredible complexity and was seasoned to absolute perfection. We were basically in shock of how good the food was, not one thing didn't hit the mark. On top of that the waiting staff that brought each dish out were clearly passionate about the food and told us what the ingredients were and the process of how it was made. Not to mention the play list which was nostalgic and upbeat and felt like it had been made for us - TLC, Jurassic 5, Neneh Cherry, Eminem.... Basically a classic nineties/noughties hip-hop RnB playlist. For what we had and the calibre of food, we thought the cost was super reasonable. We will be recommending to everyone and definitely coming back for more!!
This was without a doubt the best meal of my entire life. The food was incredible and as was everything else. The staff are all lovely and attentive. The wine recommendations were perfect. The whole experience was amazing.
