5 /5 Pedram N.: We ordered a variety of items,pizza, pasta, calzone, and different garlic breads with toppings,and every single one was outstanding. The flavors were rich, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The pizza base was light yet crisp, the calzone was generous and packed with flavor, and the pasta tasted like true Italian comfort food, but with a refined touch that made it even better than many places I’ve tried in Italy. The garlic breads are worth mentioning separately, as they were delicious and came with inventive toppings that elevated a simple dish into something memorable.
The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The interior is small, which adds to the charm, but it also means the restaurant gets very busy. I would strongly recommend booking in advance if you want to be sure of a table. There are only a handful of tables inside, plus a small patio space with one table for those who want to enjoy their meal outdoors.
Overall, La Casa delivers amazing food and a heartfelt dining experience. It’s not just a restaurant, it feels like being welcomed into an Italian family’s home for dinner. A must visit if you’re anywhere near Nutley or Ashdown Park.
