Family. Everything about our story comes back to that one word. Our story started in Carini, Italy and our individual journeys have brought us all here to Richmond, Virginia. The family is back together again, and is ready to share our passion for family and great food. From our Famiglia to yours...

We are proud to bring the flavors of Old (vecchio) and New (nuovo) Italy to the table. From classic dishes that the Genova family made on Sundays for family dinner to new and unique twists on Italian cuisine, every dish is made with love.

This restaurant was amazing. The service was great but not overly bothersome to us. Came when we needed her. The food was outstanding. I had the gnocchi with sausage Ragu and my husband had the braised beef ravioli which was cooked to perfection. We had the bruschetta for an appetizer and I would definitely eat that again. My only complaint would be the same as every other restaurant out there but is a personal preference. I like my salad chopped very fine and you just can’t get it that way. Even if you ask like I did but that doesn’t take away from this restaurant. We will definitely go again.

Every meal at Casa Italiana is always a treat. Last night we had the classic fettuccini alfredo with chicken, and it was incredible. The caesar salad dressing is so good, and was just the right ratio of dressing to salad. Our service was approachable and easy going. We also enjoyed 2 cocktails of the day. So good! Overall, it’s a delicious, easy going, enjoyable experience from the food to the service to the caring ownership. Our Richmond favorite!

Honestly I don’t leave reviews very often but for anyone looking for a great place to eat, look no further!!!! Christy, the owner, and Amanda, our waitress, had gone above and beyond for our evening out to make sure we were taken care of. The food is beyond amazing, the atmosphere was quiet but larger than it looks from the outside. So not small and cramped. I just can’t tell you how surprised I was with this restaurant!! WE WILL ABSOLUTELY BE BACK, especially for that crab penne 🤌🏻❤️

Our dinner was outstanding last night! My husband said that the lasagna was the best he’s ever had. The béchamel sauce took it over the top! We had the Risotto “fries” for an appetizer which were super unique and delicious! We’ve dined here twice and both times after we let the server know of my husbands nut allergy, the owner came out to talk to us about which dishes contained allergens and assured us that we would be taken care of! She was so friendly and her assurance gave us the ability to relax and thoroughly enjoy our meal without worry!

This was our first time at this restaurant. We were seated in a great location toward the back of the restaurant. The food was really good! The Homemade Mozzarella Appetizer and Marinara sauce was excellent! We ordered the Chicken Piccata, Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Marsala and Lasagna. All were very good! We were celebrating a Birthday so our friend decided to order the Chocolate Cake for dessert. Unfortunately, the service was quite slow so by the time the server came back to take our dessert order (over 20 minutes later) our guest no longer wanted it. The server apologized for the delay, which we appreciated, but the moment was lost at that point.

We are new to the area and love trying all the new places. We found Casa Italiana on line. Some places do not live up to their websites. This place exceeded all expectations. The food was delicious. The dining room was warm and inviting. The food was the star! Absolutely delicious!!! One of the owners, Kristi greeted us and spent time chatting and making us feel welcome. She was a real pro and a lot of fun to speak with. Highly recommend Casa Italiana! We can't wait to go back.
