Saved this restaurant for the last night of our short break in Brighton, and were glad we did. Service, food & ambience were all excellent. Only gripe was the service charge, we paid £125 for two people including drinks, (3 courses & 1 garlic bread), and we never leave a tip if there is a service charge, which we would... More

This is a welcoming and clearly very popular restaurant. The menu has interesting dishes that are not often seen in UK Italian restaurants, with steaks and king prawns cooked in an authentic north Italian style. Thankfully there is no pizza and it was clear that the food was cooked from scratch and didn't come via the microwave. The restaurant isn't... More

We visited this restaurant following some good reviews on tripadvisor. The atmosphere of the restaurant was good and the staff seemed friendly. I was surprised not to see pizza on the menu, but was glad in a way because it made me choose something different. Both my wife and I were very impressed with the dishes we chose, very tasty... More

One of the best pastas I have ever tasted! Good service. Nothing fancy, but nice atmosphere. Ps. They don't have pizza on the menu.

We took friends with us on this visit and after raving about Casalingo were a bit apprehensive. However we were not let down, another fantastic experience! We all had different dishes and every single thing was mouth wateringly delicious! Service good as always. I must agree with previous reviewers who don't like the service charge. I think it's something that... More

Just returned to our hotel after spending a wonderful evening at Casalingo. Food superb, service excellent ... not at all rushed, ambience just right. Would highly recommend this restaurant.
