Casa East Sac

This restaurant is a perfect representation of traditional American comfort food done right. The staff was enthusiastic and knew the menu well. I had the fried chicken with cornbread, and it was simply outstanding. The nostalgic décor, friendly atmosphere, and hearty portions made it an experience worth sharing with readers.

We really enjoyed our visit to Casa East Sac for Brunch. We had a hard time choosing because so many items on the menu sounded so good. We will be back to try more of the menu it was so tasty!

My mom says their food is orgasmic . Harry Met Sally style 😉. If you haven’t tried this place you need to check it out. It has perfect holiday season vibes. I have seen too many restaurants come and go from this location. I had the pasta and bread tonight, heavenly.  They ran out of cookies, so the owner couldn’t be nicer, he made me a beautiful & thoughtful oreo panna cotta. Dude. Yup, so good. If you need a restaurant for a holiday dinner or brunch, I highly recommend this location. It has cozy indoor and outdoor seating with heaters for outside. Let’s keep their doors open this holiday season as we move into 2026.

Pretty good! I've only had their house pasta entree and grilled artichokes so far, and I enjoyed both. The pasta sauce was creamy, delicious, and loaded with meat! It's definitely enough for two meals

This place is actually outstanding. Came here with my fiancée for a relatively fancy meal and was not disappointed. The meatballs were truly top-notch, the pizza was excellent, and the salad was solid (though not quite as superlative). The prices were surprisingly reasonable given the very high quality of food and the ambiance was very cozy — almost like dining in a very tastefully decorated version of one’s own home. The service was also excellent. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

The food and the atmosphere was perfect for a quick bite to eat. We enjoyed the BLT with soup and the pasta special of the day. If you don't have reservations I highly recommend them we lucked out and were able to get a seat outside on such a beautiful sunny day with the heater behind us, it worked out perfect. Food appears to be very clean and homemade.

Casa is unique and charming. The menu is simple and balanced. Great selections and service. The food is phenomenal and well worth the price which is very reasonable. The braised beef sandwich came with a bowl to dip into the sauce that had beef floating around in it, needless to say it was quite tasty and a great size portion. They have indoor and outdoor seating and you line up place your order and they bring your food to you. I recommend this neighborhood gem in East Sacramento.

So last night 12/30/2023 I had the absolute pleasure of stumbling across Casa East Sac. I can say, I was extremely impressed with this small restaurant. I will tell you I am giving it A+++ rating.. This little place is filled with Great service, Smiles and above all Wonderfull food. The bathrooms were spotless by the way. Casa East Sac is definitely a hidden gem and I would go as far as to say in the top 3 restraints in Sacramento greater area. Reservations are recommended for sure. But Wait…. Let me tell you a little secret! I arrived during the dinner rush on a Saturday night with no reservation, obviously there were no tables available but I was offered seating at the bar. I was immediately greeted by Gaby who explained the specials and offered suggestions on apps and drinks. I realized I was blessed to be sitting on the left side of the bar as I had a Birds Eye view into the kitchen and the pizza, salad, and desert stations. I was able to see all the food coming out of the kitchen while at the same time see desserts and salads made. What amazed me the most was the cleanliness of the area. Staff washing there hands before and after touching plates and food, I must have watched the staff wash there hands 50 times during my hour and half visit. As a Travel Nurse I was so impressed at the dedication to high hygiene standards. I felt safe eating the food and sitting at the bar. I have 2 favorite restaurants I visit out of probably 75 places I have tried in Sacramento and I will say this is now a rival for one of the top spots. As a foodie it is rare to find a place that actually checks all the boxes from, friendliness, good food, cleanliness etc. I am here to say.. 100% Go to Casa East Sac!!!!

Casa in East Sac is such a gem! We came for dinner with friends and decided to share a few appetizers and pizzas and I'm so glad we did because everything was really good. To start, we had the seasonal bruschetta, deviled eggs, and grilled artichoke. Each dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I would say the artichoke was my favorite of the bunch. For pizzas, we went with the Genevieve (classic fresh tomato, basil, and mozzarella) and the Vic (mushroom with truffle oil). Both were standouts IMO. Service was also wonderful. Even though we had a reservation, we had to wait a little while for our table. The staff handled it with such kindness and were checking in with us often and even offering a complimentary glass of wine to make up for the delay. The atmosphere is quaint and cozy, which makes it perfect for a relaxed night out. Between the food, the service, and the vibe, Casa is a spot I'll absolutely be back to. Highly recommend!

Five for brunch with limited spec for everyone reservations. Pizza is king here, we ordered the chefs choice and enjoyed both (same toppings). Two people ordered the eggs "bene" - some of the best in town - hollandaise was spot on. One friend ordered ala carte -- two eggs, a side of bacon and a side of potatoes. All were yummy especially the bacon. My only complaints were - the outside service area got cold for most of us - we all had to put on another layer. The food was wonderful, - but we had to wait a little for everything - breakfast, coffee, Yes, we will be back.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Sacramento! The pizza is to die for and everything is so delicious! Service is very friendly. It's owned by two brothers. Very cute inside and cute patio deck too! Love this place!!!

This restaurant is in a nice neighborhood and parking is a challenge.Went inside and as if we didn't exist,after 3 mins of standing and waiting to be seated,one lady staff greeted us and then the other staff started moving cleaning the table ,4 mins later we got seated,we ordered and took almost more than 35 mins for our order to come,and yet we didn't have utensils to use,so another few minutes for the staff to get our utensils and she even paused to chit chat with another customer while our food is getting cold.we ordered Vic,Maximino pizza and belgian waffles,got exited a bit when it came to our table but got disappointed when we ate it as simple as it looks and so as the taste. this restaurant is cozy,books stocked up leading to the restroom.

Service was top notch, although they missed on our reservation and dropped us into a bunch of random tables pulled together. Food was good and the wine was delicious.

Casa East Sac definitely has the charm and quality of a locals favorite. Very inviting space, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is memorable. Parking can be a bit difficult though. We came for Sunday brunch and everything we ordered was solid. The pizza had a great crust and flavor, the French toast with strawberries was a crowd-pleaser (can share), and the shrimp cocktail was surprisingly fresh for a brunch menu in Sacramento. My one critique and the only reason this isn't 5 stars is the menu. I came in hoping for the pancakes I'd seen online, but they weren't on the menu that day. The offerings seem to rotate, which is fine, but it would be super helpful if the menu online matched what's actually available in-house. Small fix that would go a long way. Still, I'd gladly come back based on what I experienced.

First time at Casa East Sac and it definitely exceeded my expectations. I had heard wonderful things about this darling place but I am always leery with that much praise...worth every positive feedback! So cute, cozy, and so charming on the inside. Arrived party of 4 for brunch on a Sunday. We all ordered something different and loved it. I do not understand what is going on with their bacon...but it's magical! Service was polite and attentive. Looking forward to go back for dinner...which I have heard is fantastic too...which I tend to believe. Recommend!

Casa East Sac's menu changes seasonally they have weekly specials that are always excellent. It is a small restaurant so you need to make reservations. The service is always excellent. They serve only wine and beer. Definitely worth coming in for a bite, have a glass of wine and enjoy the evening.

Overall one of my favorite places to eat in the Sacramento area. Owners Steve and Teddy have worked extremely hard from the bottom of the industry to winning awards such as best bacon and best burger in Sacramento to building a solid brick and mortar restaurant. I would call their ever updating menu truly New American. With influence from all over Europe blended into some fantastic meals. One of my favorites is the simple roasted chicken. Incredible flavor, served hot and moist. A winner for me. Casa East Sac is most definitely worth giving and try, I'm pretty sure the service and food will bring you back.

This is a cozy little spot! The inside is well decorated and comfortable. We got the Oliver pizza and meatballs to share (good amount for about 2 people). The server was very kind and attentive. The food also came out fast. For dessert we had the chocolate chip cookie with sea salt, tiramisu, and chocolate French pudding. The cookie is exactly what it sounds like and yummy. Tiramisu wasn't too bad, just wish it had a stronger coffee flavor. Absolutely loved the French pudding! I believe it was topped with meringue bits. Definitely would recommend to try the pudding

Came for Saturday brunch (reservation). The place is quaint and more intimate. Our helping human, Alexis, was pretty dope also. Parking was alright (street), and check in was nice. Modest amount of seating overall, the chairs were comfortable and there was covered outdoor seating (we were seated inside). Now, the food stuff: Pricing: It's 2025, and we made a reservation, and this is California. Bacon: 4.5/5 - A side order is shareable, I appreciate the amount provided. It was crispy and not too greasy. Avocado Toast: 4.3/5 - No complaints, it was a lot happening on the toast itself, but was overall tasty. French Toast: I say 4/5, Friend leans 4.6/5 - Healthy portion (about 5 slices). It was different, and the choice of sourdough bread is...unique. It wasn't too sweet, which was appreciated. The toast was fine, a lot of berries and whipped cream. - my rating was a bit different, it is great in its own category, comparing it to other French toast is where I am left wanting for something. Maybe less slices and thicker cuts which would showcase the bread and the custard mix. Just a thought. Monte Cristo: 4.6/5 (Friend), 4.2/5 (me) - overall, this was a nice surprise option as it was not on the menu. Definitely a good portion. Ham was tender, bread was tasty. I appreciated it. - So this is where I had a question. The sandwich was good, the addition of mustard was...unique. It felt like it used to bring back the savory-ness of the dish, which worked. My focus was on the berry compote, which was good, it still felt as if something was missing that would complement the sandwich. The addition of the mustard (would could be the amount of mustard added) could've been highlighted by adding something extra to the compote. Like a berry lemon compote, or ramp up the sweetness with a fig jam. Overall, it was a nice visit. I highly recommend checking them out. Oh, and be mindful of the side of potatoes, some were tender, some were not as tender.

Took 25 minutes to give my order, and 1 hr to get my food. Food was mid and the server rarely checked on us. The owner needs to hire more people unless providing poor service is their niche.

This place is definitely a hidden gem. Amazing food, the flavors are excellent. Great service and ambiance

I visited Casa East Sac for the first time today for brunch with 3 girlfriends and was blown away. First, I loved that we were able to make a reservation as that's frequently not an option for brunch at many Sacramento establishments. We were seated as soon as we arrived and the vibe both inside and outside this locally owned quaint little East sac place is great. The place was busy but didn't feel chaotic and the servers never made us feel rushed and took great care of us. For drinks, we just did coffee (be aware, they only have drip coffee and no milk alternatives but it was solid) and juice. The food was INCREDIBLE. While I'm not usually an avocado toast gal, I decided to do an avocado toast after seeing the server drop one off at another table as it looked so good (I added poached eggs to it just as that table had, which was a great call). The pickled veggies on top and freshness of the cucumber and all the vegetables and yummy bread, it was so so good and undoubtedly the best avocado toast I've ever had. We also got a French toast to split which also was great. Two of my girlfriends got the egg breakfast and my other girlfriend got the breakfast pizza (it was a steak pizza and she added eggs to it). Everything we ate was incredibly fresh and made with high quality ingredients (from delicious fresh baked bread for the side of toast to the strawberries on the French toast which were so so good). I was very impressed and will definitely be back!

Best lavender lemon drop ever. Stoped by for drinks and appetizers. And everything was outstanding. Staff is always friendly and the ambience is always welcoming. My last visit we ordered pizza BLT and it was delicious. The lavender lemon drop was so good. I wanted to order more.

Brunch with cinnamon roll...yes please! Their deviled eggs are good, too. Had the loco moco...was decent. Mimosas were also good! They have patio seating for dining al fresco.

Love this place. They have become a staple in the neighborhood. Consistently great food, and love that they have their standard go-to's but always have yummy seasonal specials. Can't go wrong with their pizza (Pop's is our fave), bruschetta, caesar salad. Looking forward to trying their brunch next

The service has always been great. The food reminds me of home and the ambiance is cozy. I love the warm vibes and the great menu!

Came here on a late Sunday morning with my grandmother & what a great choice! It was around 11ish when we arrived, we waited maybe 5 minutes and had a table cleaned up for us. The place was busy but not packed, seemed like tables were turning over quickly so that's always nice. Our server was sweet and prompt with bringing everything out at a timely pace. My grandmother got a coffee, and the French toast - between us all, her being in her 80's the bread was too tough for her. Sour dough wasn't a correct choice for her, I do wish they had another softer option for the French toast but it was tasty. I ordered an orange juice and eggs Benny. They were delicious. Both plates were huge! We did not finish. Nice place for a quiet, quick brunch with yummy food options. Thanks for the experience.

This is a cool spot- great for golden hour, spring and summer days. The outside seating area is the key here. Food is alright- got a steak that wasn't great. Small menu which is fine, actually preferred but I thought quality was what I would describe as "mid". But not bad at all- recommend paired with the ambiance and drinks are great too. Recommend splitting a bottle with friends or date night

It was a beautifully decorated quaint place and location. We were seated right away as they opened-we also had reservations. The Sunday brunch menu is straight to the point. The breakfast pizza and French toast was a good size for sharing.

Awesome artisan pizza! Artichoke was delicious, also. Will skip appetizers next time and have more pizza to savor. Very nice indoor and outdoor seating. Sat outside in the nicely shaded area since the weather was nice. Service was prompt and friendly.

We made reservations online and came here for brunch. There is inside seating and patio seating. There were a few tables that were in the sun and the people there requested to move. We ordered several things to share. We had the Vic pizza (mushrooms), prawn cocktail, loco loco, and buffalo mozzarella salad. I enjoyed everything overall. My favorite was the salad, which came with heirloom tomatoes, cucumber, and pesto. It was light and refreshing.

Casa is amazing! The service, the atmosphere, and the FOOD!! Love this little spot. Highly recommended you try their lasagna. Great dining place with friends.

The breakfast we had was delicious. Service was quick, friendly and accurate. The restaurant is lovely. The grounds and curb appeal are great it fits into its residential location perfectly. Inside is artsy, eclectic, and welcoming. Tables and seating are comfortable and well spaced. Conversation is easy. Excellent and varied menu with fresh ingredients well handled. Presentation of the food is appealing. I was charmed by the table linens which struck me as both French country and nautical at once. Do come by and try Casa.

Really love the location and ambience of this restaurant. There is plenty of street parking and the inside is cozy and inviting. The reviews are mainly for brunch so I wanted to come by for that exact reason. I do wish they had more of a menu catered more specifically to brunch. Pizza in my eyes is not brunch food but it was quite amazing. They are generous with their mimosas and service was amazing. My eggs Benedict was massive. Rich and hearty. Hoping to be back and have more brunch items to try.

My lunch companion suggested this spot, and I'm so glad they did. We arrived a bit after opening, were quickly seated at a lovely table by the windows. The server was pleasant and prompt with our drinks and starter. We shared the grilled artichoke which was del ious. For lunch we shared the Tanya pizza. It was delightful. As we were leaving, the dining room was filled. Nice to see for a mid week lunch. Would love to return to try more of their offerings !

Casa serves comfortable Italian and American cuisine in a cozy environment in the East Sacramento neighborhood. The open kitchen concept allows you to watch as the chefs are preparing your food and enjoy your meal. On this visit, I opted for a few of their most popular dishes including the casa caesar, Tanya Pizza, Daily pasta, and steak. Each of the dishes were prepared well and tasted great, however my favorite dish was the shortrib parpadelle pasta! The pasta was al dente and the short rib soft and tender. Service was great as the restaurant is very tight and there is usually a server easily available should you need something. Make sure to check out Casa if you're looking for a restaurant with a nice ambience serving good Italian eats!

This is a great place in East Sac to come and grab a bite for brunch, everything was good and we weren't disappointed. Drop by and give it a try!

I came here as a group of 7 for a specific sensitive occasion and the restaurant was more than accommodating for us. I appreciate that parking is fairly easy (if you go earlyish, we went at 10:30 a.m.), that it's not overly crowded, and they take reservations. I love their eggs benedict and the desserts were delicious. Staff was friendly and the vibe is lovely. Highly recommend!!

I love coming here. The food is excellent. My favorite is the shrimp Louie salad. The shrimp are big and fresh. The six minutes egg is just right. Love this salad. The pizza was ok. The sandwich was pretty good. Everything was fresh and made to order. The staff are very nice. Parking is street parking. This place does get crowded. It probably a good idea to make reservations. To go is an option.

After trying all of the popular brunch spots in sac, I can confidently say that Casa East Sac is in the number one spot. I came here for my birthday today and was blown away. Attentive and kind service, cute indoor and outdoor section, elegant but comforting decor. They don't overcomplicate things. You can tell the owners and chefs are just passionate about feeding people good food and making them feel welcomed. The food is seasoned beautifully and the ingredients are of true quality. As a table of 6, we ordered: Brunch pizzas Eggs benny Avo toast Steak and eggs(off-menu) French toast Mimosas/ Berry Bellini Everything was amazing: avo toast was stacked high, delish artisan bread, seasoned and unique veggies, tangy and satisfying. The eggs benny and brunch pizzas had creamy hollandaise, great quality ham or bacon, thick cut and crispy potatoes. The pizza today had a slightly spicy red sauce to it. So good. The French toast was made with that same amazing bread! Tender and moist with a bit of crisp and came with fruit and whipped cream. We were worried about the steak and eggs because it has been meh at other restaurants... but wow... it was like a ribeye(?) and perfectly charred/butter-basted or so it tasted. Blown away. Again, it's just a steak and eggs but they did an excellent job. I'll be there next weekend and will return for dinner. Excited to see how the menu changes through the seasons. I read through the bad reviews also and ANY bad reviews on here are from angry folks that were likely bothered by something else in their lives or were mad about something that had nothing to do with the food, service, and ambience of this place. Parking was a common complaint but it's honestly extremely accessible compared to downtown restaurants or other East sac spots so don't let that deter you! Go now!

Brunch experience: The patio is beautiful but the food was really, REALLY bad and the service was honestly the worst I've experienced in recent memory. Our food was cold, extremely bland, and took forever. Our waitress told us it was her second day and unfortunately it showed. I can give grace where it's due but customer service should not suffer just because staff is new. If the food had been good I would've been more inclined to be forgiving, but it was almost inedible.

What to say.... Took my family here for brunch; This place has excellent food and excellent customer service. Very nice and cozy restaurant. I would recommend you to go taste and see for yourself.

Our server was so sweet to us! She let us know the specials and ensured we were taken care of. The atmosphere at this restaurant was romantic and lively. The food was food here is delicious! The plating was beautiful as well! The drink I ordered was the seasonal Bellini and it was refreshing. Definitely a good menu for brunch and dinner!

Went here with a friend. We didn't have a reservation, but were able to get a table on a Saturday morning. We both ordered the eggs benedict, except I subbed the ham for smoked salmon. Both ways were tasty! The portions were plenty for one person. I think next time we'd have to share. I also got the pomegranate spritz, which was delicious. A really nice place to get brunch!

Such a darling space for a restaurant. I came across it after doing run to feed the hungry and saw it. Decided to bring my husband for breakfast on Friday after thanksgiving . Found parking on a side street and was seated right away. I had the avocado toast and it was delicious and my husband had the two eggs. The portions are large and splittable. We added a cinnamon role and it was the only disappointment as it wasn't heated up before serving. So it was hard and unpleasant to eat. As part of the service it would be nice if they asked if we'd like it heated. I will definitely come back for lunch or dinner to try out more on the menu.

We did the prime rib deal and it was delicious and generous size. I actually loved the ceasar salad and will be ordering a regular size next time! I also had spaghetti and meatballs which was very rich and filling. The prawns for appetizers were huge and super yummy. I can't wait to go back!

I have loved the food at Casa and the atmosphere. But came here on Saturday at 5:30 and that has changed. First, wait staff were wonderful. Very nice and welcoming and no problems at all. This, is about the food. Their steak is my favorite, came for that. Its on the menu on their website. But, waitress tells us the chef decided to stop serving steak months ago because of cost. Then why is it left on your menu!!!??? That was a bummer. Food we got was good, but I kind of feel cheated. If you stopped selling it months ago dont keep it on your website. Its not hard. My primary issue is the menu is limited all ready in terms of mains. So I was disappointed. Also place was dead at 6pm. Not sure if thats a sign of problems in the economy, but restaurants are going to have challenges if it is signs of a weakening economy.

Originally, we arrived at 11 AM on Saturday for brunch, but it is it served on Saturdays. We opted to return several hours later for dinner as there was still one reservation for inside seating availability at 4:30 PM, a tip worth noting for anyone planning a dinner outing or Sunday brunch. Also, there's a two hour limit, which is fine for me, but for people who are really catching up on visiting it might be a problem if the place is busy I'm sure they need to enforce it. The special catch of the day was day-boat scallops served over a carrot cream purée with golden potatoes and asparagus. Instantly drawn to the scallops, I ordered without hesitation, blissfully unaware of the price.($55!) Yet, the dish surpassed all expectations. The fresh scallops cooked to perfection. My husband, a devout chicken enthusiast, opted for the half chicken and was astounded at the flavors. He raved about the accompanying currant sauce, unable to finish his generous portion he will have another meal tomorrow. Despite the business, the service remained top notch, leaving us eager to revisit this culinary neighborhood gem.

I attended my Great Niece's Baptism last weekend and the reception following was catered by Casa East Sac. The food was delicious, amazing, and plentiful. I have also dined at the restaurant and have received delicious food and excellent service. make it a point to check out Casa East Sac soon!

a sweet, intimate brunch spot with friendly staff. i ordered the eggs benny (sub smoked salmon) and it was pretty tasty. honestly a standard tasting brunch meal that doesn't taste any different from other places. love the plates haha.

Came here on a Friday right when they opened. Me and husband decided to sit inside since it was warm out. The place was small but cozy and our waitress was super friendly. We ordered the seasonal bruschetta which to my surprise consisted of grapes, arugula, balsamic vinaigrette, a creamy spread on top of a soft bread. It was amazing. We also ordered the deviled eggs. They were good but had a bit too much horseradish for me. We ordered a pizza that had ricotta, mushrooms, and truffle oil that was good. The portions here seem very generous. As time went on the place was packed for lunch. Overall the lunch was great and I enjoyed our time there. I can't wait to try their breakfast brunch on weekends.

Whenever I'm in town for work I always make a reservation here. The food and service are incredible. The staff are super nice and welcoming. I enjoy sitting at the bar top watching all the action and choosing what to order based on what I see. The beer and wine selection are excellent as well as the delicious salted chocolate chip cookie to end the meal. I highly recommend this place if you're by yourself or in good company. Support this family owned business!

Went here for dinner last night to finally try this place. I really liked the coastal lemon spritz cocktail I would get that again, my partner liked her sour beer. We tried the deviled eggs, house made pasta (bolognese), and Tanya pizza. We would try other items next time rather than reorder those but the food quality was good we just weren't blown away by those items but we will be back to try other things for sure. The service was great and the ambiance was casual and fun.

I made a group reservation for an early dinner & we were seated right away. As the evening progressed it got busy quickly, so reservations are highly recommended. The restaurant was quaint, refreshing, & vibrant. Our server, Gabby, was amazing! She was charismatic & ensured we were fully taken care of. Her presence made the dining experience even better. 10/10 - Seasonal Mushroom Ravioli: this was dynamite! The sauce was the star & coated the ravioli perfectly; the filling was luscious & paired well with the sauce. 10/10 Fresh Catch Salmon: this was cooked to perfection & the herb butter added more great flavor; tasty dish for those that like fish. 9/10 - Deviled Eggs: the picked onions elevates this from a traditional deviled egg; it's a must to add onions to every bite. 9/10 - Seasonal bruschetta: this was bright, packed lots of flavor & different textures; it's a unique version of a bruschetta & the pieces of chicharron were a nice touch. 6/10 - Orecchiette Housemade Pasta with Sausage & Butter Sauce: the pasta was made really well; overall this tasted like something I could make at better version of at home; the sauce didn't coat the pasta enough, so it tasted bland & it wasn't until the dish cooled down a bit that the butter sauce started coating the pasta more. This left me full, but wishing I ordered the ravioli instead.

Cozy little place. Everything we ordered was delicious. Great service too! Definitely will return.

We love Casa! Every visit is filled with great food and service. Between brunch and dinner, we've tried a lot on the changing menu and all choices have been delicious. I recommend going if you've never been. Casa will not disappoint!

Want to love it. Sorry, but ridiculous prices. Up charge for salmon instead of ham on Benedict for $30 plate? More than San Francisco pricing.
