Cafe Casita Ristorante Italiano

This place is adorable, I can’t believe I haven’t been before. It feels like stepping back 20 years, down an old cobbled alleyway in Italy, it doesn’t feel like Gornal! Slight mix up with our booking, although we had confirmation via email and the booking app, the staff assured us we hadn’t, even after showing them the email etc, so it was a disappointing start and then no one came to serve us for 20 mins. HOWEVER, the service got a lot better. All staff were helpful but we did have to call people over, I think where we sat, couldn’t be seen by staff. Every dish was clearly made fresh and there was no rush between courses. Full of flavour and nicely presented. I love the authenticity, it just lacked the going out feel for a Saturday night. This may have been due to our booking being overlooked, so tucked into a last space. I would go back, as I think it deserves another chance, I just don’t think we got you all in your glory! It’s clearly a well loved restaurant.

Spare of the moment thing..... Me and the Mrs where stuck for a place to go, friday night and it was about 8pm when we finally decided to eat out someplace!! but where?? we had called a few places and they couldn't fit us in due to time kitchen was closing! Called Cafe Casita and they had no problem seating us for an evening of delight. ill begin with the service, felt like part of the family from the moment we stepped through the door, the people make you feel like your eating in their own dining room, service was quick food came out fresh and hot we had starters the Mrs had Salmone Affumicato amazing!! I hade Muscles in a garlic butter sauce also out of this world, for mains i had the sirloin steak with the Barolo wine & bacon sauce, she had Spaghetti Polpette we were both gob smacked on how amazing this food was. For pudding i had Connoli and she had Tiramisu and one of the best sicillian wines i have ever had the pleasure of drinking. to say the least i will be back as often as i can. 5* review isnt nearly enough for our experience here. Thank you

First time eating here after saying for several years that we should try. How dissapointed I am that it took me this long! The menu had not one thing that me and my partner would not want to try, the staff were attentive and very polite and the food was unreal. Very authentic and a gem on our doorstep.
