Casa Italia

Casa Italia is the first restaurant in which I ate when I arrived in Birmingham 3 years ago. And what a nice experience that I have repeated many times since. Food is very good - you have to try their tiramisu - it is to die for. The service is also very nice. I certainly recommend it!

my wife and i dined here on sat 5th april. When we arrived we chose to dine upstairs. Our waiter was a very nice young man sat us down and asked what we woold like to drink even offering for us to test the wine. This unfortunately was where the good service finished. We were booked in for 7.30pm and within 10 minutes of arriving at the restaurant we had our wine and starters sat in front of us on the table which sometimes is not a bad thing. The starters were ok if not a bit pricey with starters ranging from five pounds to around seven pounds. Once our starters were finished we were looking forward to a bit of a rest before our main meals but unfortunately within a few minutes of our starters being taken away our main meals were put in front of us, well i think it was a main meal. I had the canelonni which can only be best described as average, it was very small and had been baked to within an inch of its life, and for the price of ten pounds very expensive. During our main meal a table of around 20 arrived next to us. This is when we were virtually forgotten about and all the attention focused on this party. We have also eaten at Va Bene in Hagley which is their sister restaurant and experienced the same rushed service at that restaurant. I believe you go to a restaurant to eat in a relaxed atmosphere and not to be rushed out the door within 45 minutes of arriving which is what would of happened if the delay in ordering the dessert (because all of the attention focusing on the party of 20 next to us) had not happened. From our main course being taken away to our dessert being ordered was about 30 minutes and we were not even asked if we would like anything more to drink even when both of our glasses were empty. All in all it was not a very enjoyable meal or dining experience and left feeling that we had been a little ripped off and will not be returning to either restaurant in the future.

If you have old friends you want to treat to a meal out in Brum, go here!

Food is delicious and portions are generous. Possibly the best garlic bread I've ever eaten - you must order this as a start or a side.

Small restaurant so make sure you book!
