Casa Nostra

This cozy Italian spot is a total hidden gem! The food is delicious — fresh pasta, rich sauces, and classic Italian flavors done right. But what really makes it special is the patio. It’s quiet, leafy, and perfect for a relaxed evening with friends. Best part? It’s BYOB! We brought a couple of bottles of wine and lingered over dinner as the sun went down. Friendly staff, great atmosphere, and unbeatable value. Can’t wait to come back!

I recently visited Casa Nostra on a date and was seated in their outdoor section. The patio design was great and we enjoyed our location. We ordered the Caesar Salad as well as the Bruschetta. The Caesar dressing was rich and the Bruschetta tasted absolutely amazing with its fresh tomatoes and the bread was perfect. For our main courses we ordered the Chicken Fantasia and the special which was the shrimp ravioli with blush sauce which had lobster and scallops. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the lemon lime sauce was refreshing and addictive. But the shrimp ravioli was definitely the favorite of the night. The raviolis themselves were soft with the perfect amount of chew, and the shrimp filling was flavorful and delicious. The blush sauce worked perfectly with the dish and paired exceptionally with the lobster and scallops. Our server, Kay (I think that was her name), was kind and helpful. The staff was overall great and everyone from the host to the busters were doing a great job. Overall, I loved this new spot and the food was all delicious. Can’t wait to come back and more.

Beautiful restaurant with lovely ambience and decor. Service is fantastic. The watermelon appetizer was so fresh. Slightly let down by my entree which was a special, not on the menu. I was expecting more flavor and seasoning in the halibut dish, although my picky son seemed to enjoy the spaghetti off my plate. The home made tiramisu and crème bulee were ok, way too heavy for my taste.

Saw this place in passing last week and it looked nice so I decided to give it a try tonight. The inside is warm and spacious and the tables were not crowded together. The food was phenomena and portions were huge. The place was not crowded but it should be. I have been looking for new places to try and have heard of a few but not this one. That needs to change. This place was actually the best out the the recent places I have tried. I'll definitely be back. I'm already thinking about what I'll try next.

A few friends and I noticed this new Italian spot had just opened, so we called on a Friday night to see if they could take a big group — seven of us — and they were able to seat us pretty quickly. The place has a really nice outdoor seating area, and the indoor dining room is clean, modern, and all brand new. From start to finish, the service was excellent. The hostess and our server were super friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share, and honestly, everything was great — but the standout for me was the bruschetta. I’d absolutely get that again. For my main, I went with the lasagna, which was a generous portion and tasted incredible. My wife ordered the special for the night, lobster ravioli, and it was just as good. Prices were very reasonable for both the amount and quality of food or as my wife would say everything tasted so fresh, and the fact that it’s BYOB is a huge bonus — definitely saves a chunk off the final bill. I think it ended up being like $42 a person after tip. Since it’s so new, it feels like a bit of a hidden gem right now, but I don’t think that’ll last long. I have a feeling it’s going to be tough to get a table on weekends once word gets out. We’ll definitely be back — it’s already made our list of top Italian spots in Philly.

Showed up for QV restaurant week and Casa Nostra did not disappoint. Food was great and outside atmosphere perfect. This is BYOB restaurant.

Cute BYOB with yummy food and great service! The outdoor area was super cute but we sat in the indoor area, which was also nice!

Okay so this place is so warm and cozy in all the ways!! First off, we were a couple minutes late with parking and all (and waiting for a friend), but the hostess was very gracious about it. The menu is concise, which is nice so it's not overwhelming. We all got different things and let me tell you, each item was amazing! We will definitely be back! The outdoor patio area is nice and we would like to experience it when the weather is much more cooperative!!

Beautiful inside dining room but we chose to sit on the outside deck since the weather was so nice. Several families with young kids chose the outside deck also. Nice ambiance. Personable & professional service! Everything we ordered was excellent. I highly recommend their name sake dish: Casa Nostra Veal! Generous portions. We will be back.

Had a great experience here today. Food was delicious and well prepared, service was great and very attentive, the outside pergola was beautiful and the inside is clean and very pretty as well. We ordered the chicken fantasia and veal piccata and it was good. The Tirimisu was obviously home made and delicious, and for the appetizer we had the frutti de mar, would have liked a bigger portion size for that. Entrees were yummy and left feeling full. Only critique would be better dish ware, and better plating. Other then that, we really enjoyed it. Would recommend.

Went for Restaurant Week. Our dishes were delicious. Me: shrimp fra diavolo pasta. My friend: the fish special. Nice atmosphere and service.
