One of the best pastas I have ever tasted! Good service. Nothing fancy, but nice atmosphere. Ps. They don't have pizza on the menu.

We took friends with us on this visit and after raving about Casalingo were a bit apprehensive. However we were not let down, another fantastic experience! We all had different dishes and every single thing was mouth wateringly delicious! Service good as always. I must agree with previous reviewers who don't like the service charge. I think it's something that... More

Just returned to our hotel after spending a wonderful evening at Casalingo. Food superb, service excellent ... not at all rushed, ambience just right. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

Wanted to love this place again as had a lovely experience previously! :( Average food - wine was watery (at £17 a bottle!) I had Swordfish which was a tiny portion and very bland and my partner had Veal which was bland too. We ordered a cheese board to share instead of a sweet dessert and it arrive with miniscule...

Some of the best food I've had in ages and the staff were so helpful. I think the prices where really reasonable as my boyfriend and I had starters, mains and shared a pudding with 2 drinks each and only paid £60.00 which to me is a bargin. I will be back!

My wife, I and the two kids were staying round the corner and had this place recommended to us by the hotel. I loved it. The food takes its time to come, but that is to be expected with very good fresh food. The only issue with this was that our kids were already tired. Please note, that this is... More

I visited Casalingo last night based on Trip Advisor reviews. The restaurant was lovely and the welcome by the owner was great. The service was attentive and the food tasty. The only thing I could fault it on would be that the service charge was added to the bill. I would have tipped anyway as the service was very good... More

We choose this restaurant from the Trip Advisor reviews and was so not disappointed. The service was a little rushed when we first arrived at 9.30pm, but as the restaurant quietened the staff happily left us to chew the fat whilst they had their own dinner. I had mussels which were lovely, but the dover sole was out of this... More

I read the reviews on tripadvisor before booking so had quite high expectations and wasn't disappointed! It's a small, cosy restaurant and has a family-run feel to it which I really liked. To start I had the tricoloure and my friend had prawn cocktail. Both were a really good size and tasted delicious! For mains I had scampi linguine and... More
