We started to come to this restaurant when our other favorite Italian place closed and the place is great. We try to go as often as we can.This is family owned and operated establishment and I'm not exaggerating when I say that every bite of food was made with love - it was delicious !!! The best part though, is... More

Even though im Hungarian.... Wow, have been there twice with friends. I had the same main both times, Penne Putinesco (spelled wrong sorry). It contains anchovies, and im allergic, but no worries, everything is made to order. Pasta cooked to perfection, that dish is just the most wonderful thing to hit my belly in years. I ate the entire plate.... More

Thank you so much for your kind and generous words about our restaurant! It gives us great pleasure to know that you enjoyed your experience and that our style of service is appreciated by our guests. The Penne Puttanesca is a personal favorite of mine and love that you enjoy it as much as I do (even without the anchovies!).... More

Did you know they offer a limited Take Out service? This arrangement worked great for our family as we had a busy evening but wanted well made Italian food. Two kinds of Spaghetti, a penne pasta, and veal dish and we were good to go! Pick up was quick and easy. More importantly, all the main dishes were still warm... More

We chose La Casa from its Tripadvisor reviews and were not disappointed! The food was fabulous and the service was excellent. My husband and I love Italian and are pretty picky about our Italian restaurants. We never thought we would find an excellent Italian restaurant in Calgary but we did! The owners and chefs came to Calagary in the 60's... More

had a quick dinner Penne and meatballs, wanted spicy sauce which was not so, they had dried chillies for that added heat. Sauce was taste paste was a little over cooked but eatable. Servers where professional and very attentive, I would return based on the service alone. I would try a different dinner on my nest visit.

Hello and thank you for your comments, we really appreciate your taking the time to write! We're sorry you didn't "feel the heat" with your pasta - spice is something that's so personal and tough to gauge for each guest's taste. My father has dried his own chilies and we found they were far too hot for most of our... More

We were in Calgary as my husband was there doing business, and decided to try out La Casa D'Italia based on the Tripadvisor reviews. It was kind of tucked away oddly in a neighbourhood but had ample parking. The atmosphere was very nice, quiet, and we got a table right in front of the fireplace. Our server was EXCEPTIONAL; very...
