When visiting Austin recently, my colleague suggested this spot for happy hour as it it's one of her faves. I can see why - Casa Bianca is such a vibe! First of all - I am a happy hour girlie - I love a deal on a cocktail and a snack. Happy our is daily from 4 - 6 pm and it features $1 oysters, select $10 cocktails, and $2 off wines by the glass. In addition to oysters, there are awesome items like fingerling potatoes in Caesar dip, pasta sopresina with mussels, chicken wings, and a burger on the happy hour menu. I was really impressed with everything, especially the pasta. We ordered a side of foccacia to soak up all the sauce, it was divine! I started with La Brasa for my drink - which was a spicy tequila based cocktail with mango. I also got an Aperol spritz which was the size of my head, I loved it! We finished happy hour with a sweet treat that our local expert said we MUST try - the lasagna mille-feuille. This is a layered lasanga-inspired dessert with cream, crispy pastry, and candied pecan. For being so rich in flavor, this dish was light and airy and the perfect way to end our happy hour. The service here was friendly, and the place was packed! We made it for happy hour and left while live jazz was just starting. While it was a dreary day on our visit, I could definitely see myself having cocktails and oysters on the patio if it was a sunny day - it's so cute out there! While we didn't drive since we were traveling - there is a lot at the restaurant which is on the small side, and a parking garage across the street. Seems like a popular spot and I would definitely be a regular if I lived in the city! read more

I had been to this place prior, but it was a different name so it still looks really cute inside we did make a reservation because it does tend to get full on the weekends. We did get there for the happy hour for the oysters, which is a great deal I will say that. We got a seat at the bar and I were waiter was very nice and knew what to recommend. The only reason I'm giving this place three stars is because to me the food was OK now I will say the oysters were divine and a great happy hour prize so I would definitely come back just for that. The crispy potatoes to me were nothing special. They were good, but that's it. The pasta my friend got was sorry to say this tasted like hamburger helper to me and then I got the pork belly and same thing. Nothing special it was just pork belly. After that, we just didn't really wanna order anything anymore so just enjoyed our drinks and call it a day there. read more

THE BIG: Italian restaurant with interesting art deco/bauhaus interior design. Indoor and outdoor seating along with a rooftop terrace (season permitting). Street parking primarily with limited private lot. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I came here with the Austin team from work for a Happy hour and Casa Bianca did not disappoint. There is a rooftop terrace but it wasn't open when we went. An opportunity for next time! For food we got the focaccia starter, pasta sorpresina , tortelli, mushroom lasagna, pork belly, and for dessert the donut. All dishes were very delicious and I have to say the mushroom lasagna was a darkhorse and was my favorite bite of the night. Drinks-wise, we started off with a few cocktails and wines but eventually moved towards a bottle of montepulciano and nebbiolo to round out the night. THE FINAL BAMBOO: This was a happy hour for the austin team, so we in total spent around $400 for everything. Good service and delicious food. Definitely a must try at least once. read more

I had an excellent first visit a couple of weeks ago. Casa Bianca has a great happy hour with food and drink options, including $1 oysters. They also feature daily specials. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I ordered except for the wings. My favorites were the oysters, shrimp and pork belly tortelli, and fingerling potatoes. Casa Bianca is definitely a great happy hour or dinner option here in Austin! read more

The spot is very cute. The service was quick. Each person who brought out food described the dish they served in detail. The food was pretty good. The potatoes were my favorite. The wings were a close second. The oysters were ok. read more

Came here for a birthday dinner and it was pretty good. Staff were friendly and attentive. The mezcal drink was tasty and refreshing but it did take some time to come out. We went at 5:30pm and there was plenty of parking in the lot. Surprisingly, it was also HH until 6pm on a Sunday. Our group of 3 ordered a lot and shared... the chicken wings, fingerling potatoes, oysters, lamb cavatelli, focaccia, mushroom lasagna, risotto, and the branzino. All were delicious. The standouts were the chicken wings and the lamb cavatelli. read more

Rating: 3.9/5 We walked in with a party of 5 during dinner and were seated right away at a nice booth with a large table. The intimate seating made it easy to focus on our conversations without distractions, and our server was great. Dressed Raw Oysters ($1/Oyster HH): I didn't try these, but my husband enjoyed them. Fried Olives Stuffed With Herbs ($11): Served with gorgonzola cream. I'm not usually big on olives, but they were delicious and made a great starter for the table. Cured Scallop + Apple ($23): This dish came with shaved celery, galangal, and bergamot. The combination was interesting and worked well, offering a cool, refreshing contrast to some of the heavier items we ordered. Chicken Parm + Angel Hair ($25): A Tuesday special and one of my friend's favorites here. This was one of the better versions we've had. The chicken was super crispy on the outside without being dry inside, and it wasn't too heavy. Confit + Fried Chicken Wings ($10 HH): Three huge wings that were quite good. The Calabrian chili jam offered a different flavor profile that I enjoyed, though I still lean toward Asian flavors. Cavatelli ($17): This lamb and hazelnut ragu with fermented honey was a first for me. I don't think I've ever had lamb pasta before. The lamb flavor came through without being overpowering. Worth trying once for the novelty, but probably not something I'd order again. Grilled Pork Belly ($31): Served with guanciale, date relish, and caramelized pear. The portion felt small for the price, and the pork belly itself was just okay. The flavors didn't really come through as expected. Crispy Skin Branzino ($38): This came with brown butter corn puree and pistachio salsa verde. The fish was smaller than expected, and while it was good, the flavors were more mellow than the flavor bomb I was expecting. C.R.E.A.M. ($10 HH): A refreshing cocktail with white rum, coconut, pandan, lime, and absinthe. Surprisingly good and on the lighter side. read more

The Tuesday chicken parm special is a must-do. The champagne, pasta, and chicken are all delicious. Had enough leftover for lunch the next day. The restaurant has a super cool vibe and easy parking lot. Service was also great! We will definitely be back! read more

Casa Bianca - Chicken parm special - Wine Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

My first time at Casa Bianca was on Jazz Night. The music was great and so was the service. I didn't take photos of my actual favorite dishes: crab aranchini, mushroom lasagna, chicken wings! The weak east plate of the night were the scallops, felt really random with carrot shreds thrown on top. The crab arancini was probably my favorite bite. Great spot, highly recommend. If you do come for Jazz night, ask for a table further away from the band. Our table yelled at each other the entire night. read more

I've walked past Casa Bianca dozens of times over the last few years and had no idea about the lovey oyster happy hour they have offered on the daily. Happy hour is 4-6pm every day featuring $1 murder point oysters (max 12 per guest), $10 cocktails, $9 wine by the glass. As other diners mentioned, the mignonette chili oil atop the oysters offers a fun bite. They have patio and rooftop patio dining, bar seating, and indoor dining, the perfect setting for a romantic or gal-pal din-din of pasta and seafood. Def going back in a few weeks. Other notable specials: :: Fried chicken and Champs on Tuesday ($35 chicken parm with angel hair pasta + glass of Ca' del Bosco brut) :: Industry Sundays with $10 happy hour cocktails and food specials on loaded fries, parm heroes, pizza pockets read more

My fiancé and I had been hearing about Casa Bianca from friends for the last several years, so we decided to do a late Valentine's Day celebration there. We were also celebrating Match results (yay!) We made a 5:30 pm reservation on the rooftop through Open Table so we could catch the end of happy hour. We were seated outside, ground level, and there was a considerable amount of noise from the street. Our server let us know that the rooftop does not open until April and apologized for the confusion, and we ended up being able to move inside, which was really awesome of them! The food on the HH menu, and much of the actual menu, is all small plates/shareables. We ordered 8 oysters (all tasted really fresh), the fries (comes with a white dip in the middle that was delicious, and all covered in shavings of parmesan), the wings (tasty, but come with 3), cavatelli (seriously such a tasty sauce), and then the mushrooms (not on the happy hour menu). For me, the star of the night was the cavatelli, simply because I have never had a pasta sauce quite like that. It was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The mushrooms, unfortunately, did not hit the way I wanted them to. It was 6 slices of mushroom with some of arugula and jam piled on top, which for the price (I think $20?) it just was not what I expected. There is parking available in the back lot, as well as free street parking in the neighborhood, which is what we ended up doing. Overall, I was satisfied with Casa Bianca, but there were just some elements that missed the mark (seating options, portion/price ratio). read more

My friend and I were there for happy hour. $1 raw oysters, $2 off glass wine, $10 dirty Tito's martini, Wednesday bottle wine special pricing... We shared an antipasto, a small Caesar salad (plenty for two) and three pasta dishes (with bread to sop up any extra sauce). One pasta was from the HH menu and the others were half orders from main menu, so we could try multiple things without getting stuffed. And the dessert "lasagna" was very tasty. They gifted us some olives and a small cheese plate. Everything was amazing. Our server was personable and knowledgeable. And the owner stopped by to make sure all was well. (And he's cute, to top it off!) I'll definitely be going back! read more

Wow! Great food and vibes to be had here. We came during their happy hour (4-6pm) and it was great. Probably some of the best oysters I've had ever - fresh and delicious. Other favorite were the fried chicken wings and the potatoes. Drinks are delicious too. I really appreciate when happy hour includes a variety of food and drink options. Everything comes out as they are prepared, so some items may come out slower than others like the burger. Worth the wait! read more

I had eye'd this spot before I even arrived in Austin for the first time as it kept popping up in various articles. I had to move my reservation around a few times, and then in the end, arrived alone as my friend couldn't make it through the northern Texas ice. It took a few minutes to get seated - though the tables were available - I'm not sure why that was, but it wasn't too long, so it worked out. I was in the front area near the bar (though the bar didn't have many seats - do they not use this for seating? there was one person there at one end, but otherwise, a totally empty bar). In any case, I had a nice, cozy spot and the atmosphere was a bit dark, but comfy (and not too dark that you needed a flashlight to read). I selected the chicken parm/pasta/champagne dinner - and it was a great choice. I also had a happy hour glass of wine to start - a vermentino which was a very smidgeon sweet, but overall a great starter. The dinner was great - not greasy, nicely fried and a good portion size. The pasta looked like...not much...but it was divine. Perfectly flavored, nice parm on top - very much a winner. The champagne cut through the richness of the dinner well and it was a wine I hadn't tried before - very delicious - dry, a little yeasty, but very effervescent - perfect with the dinner. I would have eaten more but I was fully stuffed after the meal - I didn't leave one bite left over. Parking in a lot was really convenient, but I'm sure the lot fills up fast. There is an outdoor patio that says it's heated, though I saw folks with coats sitting out there, so dress wisely if you have outdoor seating and it's cold outside. All in all, a great dinner and if I'm in the area again, I would definitely come back. The happy hour menu is reasonably priced, and the tasting menu looked great (if only I'd have had more time!). I think the regular menu is a tad pricey, but quality is high and the staff is great, so I think it's worth it. read more

My sister and I walked in around 6:10 with no reservations and were seated at one of the last bar seats. Felt very lucky after I saw the waiting area get more crowded. They have hooks underneath the counter for small purses and backpacks. The menu is straightforward and doesn't lead to choice paralysis. Neither of us were feeling super hungry after my Loro meal and her late lunch, so we settled on sharing two appetizers and me getting a pasta. Our server/bartender frequently came to refill our waters which was awesome. The pacing of our food was great too, starting off with the focaccia, followed by the caesar, and ending with the pasta. We probably should have gotten the small orders of both salad and pasta but as foodies were still able to finish both plates. I thought the focaccia was great, especially with the butter and the fluffy insides. The upper crust was a little burnt for my taste. The herb caesar also a standout - salad leaves weren't drenched and it had a mix of textures. Finally, the pasta was also perfect. Not greasy at all, and certainly filling. Their dessert items sounded good, so will have to return for those. read more

Casa Bianca - Oysters - Wine Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

Outstanding. We had a rough start with 20 mins before any acknowledgment or drink order. Then an error with cocktails. Immediately remedied!!! Absolutely beautifully unexpected blessing. Let us try two portions of delightful Ceasar salad of their take on it with artichokes and quality greens and lots of crunch added and cheese. Sourdough Focaccia bread was stand out surprise. Its bread. BREAD. Nope a delightful caraway seed bite to offset it he sweeter notes with their whipped butter. Using it later to mop up the glorious pasta sauces! Chefs kiss. I got the lamb cavatelli. Y'all. Devine. Perfect flavors throughout. Pasta cooked perfectly with just enough chew. Wow. Friends got the mushroom lasagna. Amazing flavors and spicy bite to keep you interested. Tuesday chicken or eggplant parm special. All tasty and loved. To amend the staff's early errors we got not only the salads but two special mussel pasta that was the Delight of the Night! Trust me. Try it. And the bread to clean the bowl to finish? C'mon. Cocktails were great. I had Il Capo. Wonderful creation. I don't like sweet and it was a perfect balance and complimented the meal. Tried friends "glass slipper". Very unique mouth feel and taste. A must entry. Again, balanced sweet and dry, with a twist of taste to intrigue. Sat on patio. Perfectly chill atmosphere to hang. Staff had tough start forgetting us but now we remember them as old friends. Come here! read more

We absolutely love this place! Every dish was super delicious and creative, We especially loved the tuna cannoli, what a great idea! The star was the pork and shrimp tortellini. Service was outstanding, dishes came out with perfect timing. i wish my stomach could have eaten more as there were things on the menu we didn't get to try. We'll definitely have to go back. Another great spot in East Austin! read more

Casa Bianca is where great funky Italian food comes to life! The restaurant is very cute inside and has ample patio seating and even a rooftop!! Definitely recommend getting a reservation so you are seated at the section you want since it gets busy!! We started off with the tuna cannoli, and this was soooo good! It had a little sweetness from the honey. Super unique and innovative dish that you must try! We also tried the crab arancini, the sauce that it came with was so good and there was a good amount of crab inside! For our mains we got two pastas (half portions). The cavatelli with lamb was very strong and heavy. It took a couple bites to get into. I wasn't the biggest fan of this dish. The shrimp and pork belly tortellini was incredible! The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the tortellini had a delicious filling inside! We also got the crispy skin branzino, which was cooked perfectly and filleted in a way where it was easy to eat the fish without the bones getting in the way. The only thing I didn't like was the eggplant puree that came on the side which I felt was a lackluster babaganoush and I didn't like the consistency either. Definitely recommend this spot for a date night, or if you're craving something unique and delicious Italian food in Austin!! read more

We LOVED this place! Completely surpassed our expectations - we were just going to stop by for happy hour and everything on the menu sounded so good we decided to try a couple more things. We ate the focaccia (10/10) amazing The herb cedar salad - so good, mint and dill and fresh lettuces made for a great salad The arancini was super cheesy and yummy with crab too We also got the large cavatelli pasta to split and loved it - the lamb works so well with everything! We split one limoncello donut bc we were so stuffed but next time we will def get two - the best donuts we've had! Service was great - our waitress was so helpful and friendly! They also brought out a dog bowl for our lil guy while we sat outside for dinner! Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, indoor is so nicely decorated. Honestly we loved everything and want to come back soon! read more

My family showed me this spot and we ordered the 6 course sampler. It was actually pretty filling and all the food was really good! Our servers were very informative about every dish when they dropped it off at the table. I love the dim lighting inside as well. My favorite was the cesar salad, it was so refreshing with different herbs. The crab cakes weren't heavy either, for something that was fried. I also loved that it wasn't super cakey. The dessert at the end was so good and not super sweet either! I see why my family likes this place a lot. read more

Alert Alert...I have found my favorite oysters in Austin!!! I really think it's the chili oil that makes them and then with a spritz of lemon you have absolute perfection. You can't beat $1 for Murder Point Alabama oysters. They feature this pricing during their HH from 4 pm to 6 pm everyday. I believe it is throughout the restaurant. We had a table for two reservation and sat in one their super cute 2 seater half booths facing the bar. Our server Aimee was beyond attentive and all other staff continuously made sure we were ok. As well as kept our water carrafe full and made sure to pour for us when our glasses were empty. We also tried the Pasta Sorpresina with Mussels from the HH menu ($14) and Cavatelli half portion ($16) from the Dinner Menu of Handmade Pastas. Both were beyond scrumptious. I love me some lamb. The flavors with the honey in the Cavatelli were so decadent and flavorfil. Paired well with the hazelnut. The Mussels dish had an exceptional broth. I wish we had ordered some focaccia bread to dip to savor every drop of the broth. Next time! I also appreciated that every time our plates were served we were explained in detail what ingredients were involved. On top of that when you check in for your reservation they do ask if you have any dietary restrictions. We paired our food with a couple of beverages... La Brasa ($10) - If you love tequila with a hint of spiciness and tropical mango flavors this is a great refreshing summer drink. Scarpetta Frico Bianco ($9) - Like a Pinto Grigio. Crisp and refreshing. Pairs well with the oysters. Espolon Espresso Martini ($10) - Always gotta have at least one espresso martini ha my vice. They made it very well. Overall the food was amazing and you can truly taste the difference that it is handmade pasta. The staff goes above and beyond to tend to their guests down to the smallest detail. Also I must have the wallpaper in the ladies restroom. The monkeys smoking and drinking are a trip. Be back soon! read more

I went to Casa Bianca with my wife and we absolutely loved the experience. First, the restaurant has nice ambiance. We decided to sit on their outdoor patio. It felt refreshing and they have coverings so you don't feel too hot. The service was phenomenal. They bring out dishes as they are ready so we felt as though there was someone at our table every few minutes serving another plate. The food was top notch. The plates are tapas style so we tried a lot of different dishes. We went during happy hour so the prices were more than reasonable. We loved the Confit Chili Wings. It was probably our favorite dish. They offered $1 oysters, which were delicious. I'm a big lasagna fan and I liked their twist on the dish to make a Mushroom Lasagna. The Pasta Sorpresina and Tortelli were flavorful as well. For drinks, we had the Salsa Verde and La Brasa. Both were delicious, but we preferred La Brasa as it had more of a kick. Overall, a phenomenal experience and we absolutely plan to return again. read more

Casa Bianca - Wine Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

When in Austin I'm always on the search for new restaurants. I checked out Casa Bianca, a newer East Austin Italian restaurant and cocktail bar. They have an amazing happy hour deal that you can't pass up. $1 fresh raw oysters, $10 cocktails and more. We ordered and downed a dozen fresh Murder Point oysters topped off with a light chili oil. I had two refreshing cocktails a Salted Lime Leaf Gimlet and a Fords Negroni. Not from the happy hour menu we ordered a half portion of the Shrimp and Pork Belly Tortelli with butter poached shrimp, trout roe and fresh herbs. It was one of the most flavorful pasta dishes I've had in a while and makes me want to try everything else on their menu. Casa Bianca is a beautiful establishment and has amazing food and service. I highly recommend checking them out for cocktails, happy hour, dinner or all of the above. read more

We grabbed seats at the bar at Casa Bianca. The bartender was a total gem--great cocktails, even better conversation--and the service all night was flawless. The vibe was chic but chill. Beautifully designed without the usual fine-dining pretension. You'll feel fancy, but also like you can exhale. As for the food: wow. Crispy potatoes we'd fight over, pasta with mussels in a delicious broth and shrimp-pork belly tortelli that was also amazing. Oh, and don't skip the focaccia or crab arancini unless you like living with regret. We ended on the mille-feuille--an amazing and wonderful mix of fried pasta, whipped cream stuff and strawberries that had us cleaning the plate. We will definitely be back!!! read more

A neighborhood Italian spot with amazing cocktails and high quality bites. The amazing drinks are $10 for happy hour (5 to 6:30 pm). I had the Memento Mori and it was frozen, sweet and fruity - so refreshing on a hot day. We ordered lots of dishes and they were all very enjoyable. Recommend with flying colors: Pork belly and shrimp Ravioli ($19 for half) - divine. I think the pasta is made in house. Herb Caesar ($11 for half) - Fresh and wonderfully dressed, I have never had a salad like it! Crispy Potatoes ($6 on HH) - amazing and flavorful, definitely get this! Good: Mushroom Lasagna ($14 for half) - rich and delicious, they use bechamel instead of your typical ricotta. Tuna Cannoli ($13) - tiny, though super yummy. Wings ($14) - good but nothing groundbreaking. Oysters ($20 per half dozen) - fresh and the chili oil is super unique! There is plentiful seating indoor and outdoor, and the indoor is stylish. Staff is wonderful. read more

I had no idea this what this building on the corner turned into until I was looking up Austin Restaurant weeks places. We sat at the bar ams Mikuel was friendly and had great suggestions and drink pairings. The subtle Asian fusion was incredibly well done, like the tuna cannoli, the mussel pasta was everything I could hope and the Caesar salad was flavorful and seasoned and big! I'm not always a big doughnut fan but they had me at limoncello and it was worth it! Will absolutely go back. read more

This is our second time here. Our first time was New Year's Eve and It was absolutely an atrocious experience. The manager felt so bad that she gave us a $100 gift card to trial them again. We finally managed to go back and while they have a good happy hour, highlights include oysters, pasta is truly phenomenal here I'll give them that, and focaccia bread was amazing. Burger was a miss. The service the second time around was Jsut as bad as the first time and the restaurant was practically empty this time. Drinks and food took forever to come out, they forgot one item, and they dropped off 2 wrong items. Server didn't seem like she wanted to be there and was very eager to drop off the check. If I we lived around the corner we would go back for happy hour cocktails and pasta but I wouldn't go out of my way for this place. read more

I had an excellent experience at Casa Bianca! Their A-frame sign outside caught my attention a few weeks ago: $1 oysters on Tuesdays? Sign me up! This restaurant took over one of my old favorite brunch locations. I walked in and was stunned with what they did with the place! The restaurant has an elevated vibe but is still welcoming. I'm usually a part of 1, so I made myself comfortable at the bar (which had plenty of seating when I arrived around 530, but was full by the time I left). The bartender, Mikel, was extremely informed on the menu and made several excellent suggestions. He was attentive and general just nice to speak with. The cocktails he made were out of this world! I ordered the C.R.E.A.M. to start and WOW, what a pleasantly sweet surprise! I followed up with their La Brasa margarita, a complete shift in flavor profile but equally as delightful. Aside from my dozen oysters, I also enjoyed a half order of their lamb cavatelli (as suggested by Mikel). It was everything I was looking for, and I'm always so thrilled when restaurants offer half portions. I'll definitely return for another round of oysters and to try their Salsa Verde margarita. At $10 from 4-6, these happy hour cocktail specials are some of the tastiest in this part of town! The happy hour menu also had a few bites on there as well, can't wait to try it all! read more

Casa Bianca - Tuesday $1 oysters - Wine Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

We made a reservation through OpenTable for a party of seven and showed up around 4 PM for happy hour. Turns out, we really didn't need the reservation since it wasn't too busy and there was no line. Parking was easy to find, with their own lot so no need to fight for street parking. Right when we arrived, we were warmly greeted and seated at a spacious booth that was perfect for our group. The ambiance was inviting--modern yet cozy, with a relaxed vibe that made it easy to settle in and enjoy the evening. Service was very friendly and attentive. We went all in on happy hour and ordered seven dozen oysters, plus nearly every special on the menu and a dessert. The oysters were fresh and delicious, and all the happy hour bites were flavorful. The drinks were balanced and well-crafted, and the burger stood out as my absolute favorite--juicy, flavorful, and surprisingly memorable for a happy hour menu item. The only slight letdown was the dessert. It took a bit longer to come out, and the flaky crust chocolate lasagna wasn't really my style--I was hoping for something a little more cake-like. Still, it didn't take away from the overall experience. Everything else came out great, and between the service, ambiance, and food, this spot is definitely one I'd return to. read more

My husband and I went in for Valentine's Day dinner and while the ambiance was great, the food fell a little flat. All of our plates didn't really feel like they were off of the same menu and one of our appetizers (the fried olives) were burnt and flavorless. The food menu was quite small and nothing was perfected. The service was good and the staff member In charge of water refills was amazing, although we did have an incorrect plate come out. I don't think we would go back again given the price, taste of food and portion size. read more

My favorite happy hour and one of my favorite restaurants in Austin! We have always walked in early at happy hour and lucked out, although reservations are recommended because they are always busy. We have visited a few times and all of our experiences have been great. They always have a unique wine on special, and cocktails are discounted during happy hour. They even have great tiki drinks! This place has everything! I love the $1 oysters. The mignonette chili oil they put on them is sooo good. They do have a 1 dozen per guest limit. One of the most unique things I've had in Austin is the spicy bluefin tuna cannoli - house 'nduja, pepperoncini aioli (2pcs) off their dinner menu. Wowowow it is a flavor bomb. So savory and delicious. My fiance loves their ricotta meatloaf burger (grilled squash relish, taleggio fonduta, sourdough potato bun). Melts in your mouth! We also love to share the fingerling potatoes (fried and dusted, caesar dip) except last time we had to notify our server that there was a hair in them. Lastly, don't skip the pasta. It changes seasonally, but we had a corn agnolotti and it was TO DIE FOR. We were drinking the sauce. We finished with dessert since they had a unique corn mille foille on the menu. This was WAY different than the traditional thousand layer dessert we are used to, but wow how unique!! So many textures! The lasagna mille-feuille uses fried lasagna noodles layered between cream and the Summer time one had sweet corn in it. So good and also beautiful! I can't wait to go back here. Highly recommend! read more

Came here for a girls night to celebrate my friend's birthday and the ambiance of the outdoor seating area was amazing. Our waitress was also very patient, accommodating, and just approachable! as far as food, everything was delicious, especially the crab arancini and the lasagna but the portion sizes were TINY. we got many many plates because it was tapas style but we were only able to each get a nibble of every dish because there just wasnt enough. For how small the portion size was, i dont think the price was justified. I was still hungry leaving the restaurant which is never a good feeling...I think i wouldve needed to spend $100+ per person in order to be full. read more

What a major upgrade from the former sports bar! Casa Bianca offers a bright, open, and airy space with both indoor and outdoor seating, plus a fun Italian themed menu. I visited on a Friday for happy hour with friends to enjoy some bites and drinks. The standout for me was the limoncello doughnut, perfectly balanced in sweetness. The trout ceviche was also excellent and paired well with my rosé. They also offer discounted cocktails, if that's more your style. Note that the menu changes seasonally, and the upstairs bar has a completely different menu, which I'm excited to try on my next visit! read more

In a okay walking area but great ambiance. Weather was cool but outdoor was nice and maybe an upstairs. Server was excellent as they got things even when I didn't notice like my napkin dropping.

I've seen videos about this place and will definitely come back for happy hour whenever I get the chance. We came for dinner and this place is kind of like tapas rather than full meals. The restaurant is small but had a back patio area. We ordered a little of everything and the food was pretty good but the portion sizes are just so small for the price. We had a wonderful waitress who explained the different items to us and was very personable.

All the pastas were fun and packed with flavor. The fish was crispy and delicious. No complaints! read more
