This family-owned restaurant has been a local favorite for years, and for good reason. We finally had the pleasure of dining here and were thoroughly impressed. The portion sizes are generous, the food is delicious, and the service is impeccable. Our waiter was incredibly friendly and attentive. The interior is charming and inviting. While they don’t currently serve alcohol, it was refreshing to dine in a place where the focus is solely on the food. We’ll definitely be returning to try the Groupon Special and exploring more of their menu. They also offer takeout for those who prefer to dine at home, even when the restaurant is closed for dine-in service.

Fantastic find. Closer than I expected from my house which was great. Food was delicious, service and ambiance were fantastic. Groupon deal was well worth the price. Francesca was our waitress and was very pleasant. I'll eat here again just to try other things on the menu. The artichoke dip was the creamiest I've ever had. Absolutely delicious. Quality ingredients.

This might be my new favorite restaurant in Buffalo. We were pleasantly surprised to find an amazing dinner deal. For (I think) $70 you get bread, an appetizer, two salads, two palette cleansers, two entrees, and two desserts. And every single course was delicious!! I didn't get pictures but my two favorite things were the caprese salad and the palette cleanser, which was a raspberry lemon coconut sorbet served IN A LEMON! Definitely go have dinner here! Plus, we were served by THE Francesca 🙂

Got the family meal of chicken alfredo and the chicken was literally RAW. Update: I ordered through doordash, and contacted them for my complaint. I also have photos which I will post below.

We ordered the fried lasagna and the the lobster gnocchi. The lasagna came with a side salad of which I ordered Cesar dressing. We paid the extra for the Right to me option. The food came and first they sent the wrong dressing then we open the 2 main dishes. Both were pretty cold. The fried lasagna (breading over the noodle) was soggy as if it had been sitting out cold for hours then tossed someplace to slightly heat up. The amount of ricotta in it (the only thing in it) was tasteless and there wasn't much of it in them. The gnocchi was also pretty chilly. The serving was pretty small for the price and the tiny amount of lobster in it was chewy. The flavor was also very bland. By far the worst Italian food we have ever had. We also ordered dessert... cheesecake which they had to substitute. The substitution was a pretty dry slice of cake. The cannioli I ordered appeared to be tossed in the container as it's toppings were all over the inside of the container. Old and cold (the order was picked up fast and delivered even faster so it wasn't cold because of the driver.. not their fault). Save yourself some cash and pass this place right on by ... For an almost $60 meal for 2 it was worth about $20 bucks if that....

I really wanted to give more stars because the food was that good and menu was priced well - hats off to the chef! Plus, the waitress was very sweet but put in a bad predicament. Unfortunately, it seemed like she was the only server. The amount of time we waited for service and the area we were seated was nearly unacceptable.The table was located in a hallway right in front of doors leading outside; the draft coming through the doors made it very cold. Plus, there was a fairly large leak that could be seen in the ceiling above us...the patrons sitting directly below had to move their table so they would not get wet. I do hope service and ambiance improves once Covid is over and life returns to normal as this place does have much potential!

The food is fantastic. Listen, the garlic bread? To die for. Also this is the only place I’ve ever found that sold Liquid Death in a grapefruit flavor, which is now my favorite! There is also something very special to be said about seeing bands play here. The setting is really intimate and are now core memories for me. Keep on just as you are Casa’s
