ruin o picola ....
Let me just plain begin with this. Had to give this place one star as rating is mandatory.
The decors are not all that appealing with loud music banging on your ears so much that you cannot hear the person sitting in front of you or you calling a waiter simply wont reach him. This place has 3 floors with the first and third being the restaurant and the second being the "party" hall. The bar is rooftop that being the third floor.
Food is one thing that will take you to CASA again. They serve good food, sizable portions at a reasonable price. The chef must really be complimented for making the best of his minimal available resources. Though not authentic Italian, the food tastes good on your buds.
Readers must really wonder why I started with my one star comment on this place when I have actually liked this place. Here goes my story.
I was a regular at this place, one such night I went here to have dinner along with my friend, the music as usual was loud. Placed my order and my food did arrive unlike the previous time when that also failed to happen. The time before my last visit there I placed the order, waited for 45 mins only to be informed that my order was forgotten. Anyways coming back to this time, the food as usual did taste good, finished my dinner and was about to have my dessert. My dessert a supposed cake was rock solid at the bottom and not all that bad at the top. Not wanting to crate a scene I ate the top part but as I started eating more it simply got harder and even failed to be cut through my fork, spoon or knife !!!!!!! I called the waiter twice and he didn hear, when I shouted for him the manager budges in to tell me that I cannot be rude to the waiter and asked me my problem. When I did tell him everything, he takes the dish in, has it examined and throws in a couple of spoons of choclate sauce and tells me that he has now made it softer and I should continue eating it. When I refused he said hye would anyways go ahead and charge me for it. Inbetween all of this he kept staring at us right throughout our meal. When I questioned him about this he asks me to step out of the place to settle the matter outside. He comes out with his people outside the place to "loosen" his tie and threaten me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well if you can believe this was my experiance here .....
