Inside it seats around 30 and is decorated in a modern style that still manages to be warm and welcoming. We visited recently for a meal for 4 on a Friday evening. The restaurant was nearly full. All our starters and mains were served in a timely manner and were delicious. I ordered the scallops and duck and both were brilliant. This is not a mega cheap place but it is worth the money charged. We spent around £35 per head with drinks. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

What a gem hidden away - After hearing really good reviews & feedback from friends that have…read morevisited this restaurant, we decided to pay a visit a couple of weeks ago and were certainly not disappointed. It doesn't look much from the outside but from the moment you go in, you are made to feel at home. A clean modern restaurant. All our food was served promptly, and was devoured just as promptly - all excellent. I have visited many "Italian" Restaurants both in Italy & here in the UK and I have to say this is certainly in my top ten! Good food made from quality ingredients, with excellent service is never cheap (if cheap is what you want, there are many pub restaurants to choose from) La Nonna is reasonably priced for the standard of food & service you receive, you can pay a lot more elsewhere for a lot less! Well worth a visit

It's simple. If you want a 1970's experience, you are in the right place…read more You walk in and you see what you are going to get, a dated restaurant, serving dated food. DO NOT let this bother you. - recently, my wife and I ate an OK Greek meal, but it was in a such a beautiful premises, that anything but an amazing food experience would have been a let down. The food didn't match the quality of the restaurant. I just think that in this restaurant, when you walk in, it was so 1970's, that anything half decent was going to impress. It wasn't the best food. King prawns were over cooked, the bread was undercooked, the calamari was perfectly cooked, but the coating/batter was under. My 8oz fillet was perfectly cooked, but the pate on top was really cheap, coarse, tasteless, horrible pate. The sauce with the steak was stupidly thick, (but seriously tasty). Such a shame. That said, it was great. I love the fact that after all those comments, I loved it. I also can't wait to take friends there to see what they think. I think you should visit. It's a great evening.

Tiled, mirrored walls and arching pillars add a sense of authenticity to the interior and leather seats make the whole set-up feel plush and expensive.

On my visit, I sampled the 'pollo alla duchessa' - chicken, prawn and asparagus in a brandy and cream sauce, which was gorgeous, and I'd definitely visit again. But only if somebody else was paying!

I went for the bruschetta to start which was served with roasted vegetables which was both fresh and a great start to the meal.....I then had the lasagna for my main. I couldn't go for an italian and not try the lasagne its just an absolute staple. This one was light and delicious with loads of cheese......a bit of a naughty but nice vibe.....you could literally taste the calories! My mates went for carbonara type dishes and everything again looked fresh well presented. I also need to mention they have a dough station/chef making fresh pizza bases at the back on the shop.....I bet the pizzas are amazing....will be back. The meal with wine came to around £60 for the three off us which i thought was really reasonable! Dont be put off by the no frills look of the front of this place its got a great vibe and some seriously good food!

Upon arrival at the restaurant for a friends birthday we were quickly welcomed by two very happy waiters who quickly took our coats and asked us if we would like to get a drink in the bar area while we wait for our other guests. Within seconds our drink orders had been taken and we were taken to a booth to sit down and relax. As soon as our other guests arrived we were taken around to our table which had been beautifully laid out with everything you could need and more, our drinks were brought over for us and we were offered a look at the menu. The menu is pretty much what you would expect from an Italian restaurant with a whole host of pastas, salads and pizzas all with mouth watering descriptions which instantly mades you want to eat everything! I went for the spinach and ricotta tortellini which was fantastic! It was beautifully crafted and presented with rich and tasty dressing over the pasta shells. After such a good main meal we decided to go all out and order a desert......I went for the tiramisu. This was also very well prepared and again I could not fault it. This is somewhere I would really only go for a treat as it is slightly more expensive than some of the other restaurants in the area but what a treat it is. The staff are some of the best and most helpful I have ever come across and the food is spot on.

We sat outside in the gorgeous sunshine, although the seating inside is elegant with bright red sofas, you feel you want to dress for the occasion and make a full day of it, it's so nice. Quieter in the day than the evenings, the Italian food is delightful. We tried the grilled asparagus with poached eggs, and shared a Margherita pizza for our mains. The ingredients they use in their meals are fine, and the options form part of their spring menu. A nice light lunch, washed down with Rose, at a decent price too. They ideal place to go for top quality exquisite food within an elegant and well designed restaurant. The waiters make you feel very relaxed and advise you on what's best to try if you've not visited before. They also have a Royal Ascot ladies lunch, available from the 21st June 2012, if your after something special.

If you're into authentic Italian dining, then Casa Italia could well be the place for you. Located on the Hagley Road, heading into town, the Italian offers a wide range of traditional meals, that you would come to expect from such an establishment. Not only do they serve great food, but the top quality customer service alongside it, is a joy to behold. After passing by Casa Italia on numerous occasions, I must admit, I had my doubts, but I was proven wrong. The Calzone I ordered, for just over £10 was more than I could stomach, but how much I did eat, I enjoyed it thoroughly. I will definitely be back after what I could only describe as a pleasantly surprising dining experience.
