With such good reviews I was expecting something quite different. Although the place is well decorated the food needs more attention. The food lacks taste and I believe that the pasta was not fresh but from the local supermaket. The price is high considering the food. Not a very good experience.
Casa Tua, is a delightful Italian-style eatery in the heart of South Beach, which is set in a gorgeous Mediterranean-style house/ hotel. This restaurant flows through various parts of the house, where each area is decorated with intimate elegance. We dined in the charming outdoor garden area.Casa Tua lived up to my expectations in its ambience and charm but disappointed when it came to service and food. Most of the dishes just failed to impress. The seared lamb chops was the one dish that really stood out but the rest of the food fell rather flat. The service was rather unimpressive too. At a place like this, you expect to be indulged in every way no such luck here.For the price point and the hype, I really think Casa Tua was unsuccessful at reaching its true potentiality. therestaurantfairy.com
Not good!. Went with a friend, after reading lots of good reviews. The place is beautiful, service is good, but the food is not what we expected. You can tell they cook the food with love, but without seasoning. Because I am always positive, and love strong flavor, for a moment I believed it was only my plate, but my friend was not very happy about her fish as well. Maybe with desert we would be happier? no, no…. I was excited about trying the Panna Cotta (with pineaple and basil): horrible, horrible.
Mistake. My boyfriend paid $140 for two drinks and a beer that we ordered; two drinks that we did NOT order; a dish that we NEVER received and gratuity for some really one-of-a-kind service. After that experience I WOULD NOT recommend Casa Tua to anyone. In fact, I would strongly suggest that you AVOID CASA TUA. I have eaten at some really amazing restaurants with James Beard awarded chefs in 4 and 5 Diamond settings and have never been treated in such a way. I have never experienced such poor service paired with even worse attitudes. I cannot critique the foodwe NEVER did receive any during that two hour fiasco. The dcor is classic and beautiful; the setting is gorgeous and candle-lit…but I do suppose that anyone can put lipstick on a pig.Upon arrival at 8:50 PM, I gave my name to the hostess (mind you I had called and confirmed these reservations earlier in the day for two at 9:00 PM at an outside table in their Garden area–which of course was no problem), she found my name on the list but did not mention the fact that I had requested outdoor seating (Specifically requested–TWO WEEKS IN ADVANCE). I politely reminded her that I had asked for a table outside and she said that we could wait in the bar for just a few minutes until our table was available. We went to the cute but too small bar and ordered two drinks. Eventually more people arrived and were also directed to the bar areawhich is adequately equipped to only sit about 8 people, tops. At this point a gentleman and his wife offer to buy me and my boyfriend a drinkwe need to refresh our drinks any way (which reminds me of how long we have been sitting in this bar), so we courteously accept. When I go to see about our table I am told that they are still waiting for people to finish and am shooed back to the bar (though weve seen other people seated outside). At this point it has been an hour and fifteen minutes and Im mildly annoyed but still want to experience this meal that I had spent so much time planning and had been so excited about. The other people in the bar have now been seated even though they had been waiting 15 minutes and we have been waiting an hour and a half. Finally, we are reluctantly called to be seated at 10:30 PM. My boyfriend is then told that the tab at the bar cannot be transferred and is charged for the drinks the gentleman had bought for us, in addition to our previous roundhe makes no fuss and pays. By this time my boyfriend, who is being a great sport, is not hungry (Who could blame himits been an hour and a half and the staff and service have been lackluster) and orders a beer while I order two dishes-the gnocchi and branzino. Alas, it starts to rain and we move to another table outside (which was OPEN) with an awning and umbrellato which the latter is just funneling water down my boyfriends back. The waiter fails to see this as a problem. At this point, I am no longer willing to make the best of the Casa Tua ambience and we decide that wed like to just cancel the order (which has not been prepared), pay for the one beer and leave.Then, the waiter tells my boyfriend that we can move inside, but cannot leave because I have ordered (an order that we have not seen, nor that has been prepared). My boyfriend wants to pay for the drink and asks for the bill. The waiter goes inside and another gentleman arrives with a bill for $100 and demands that we must pay for food that we NEVER received and that we could not leave until we did so. My boyfriend says he will pay for the beer he had but not the two dishes that we never received. Now the gentleman says that he will knock off the branzino dish but that we must pay for the gnocchi (that we never got) and the gratuity (for the wonderful service we received, I guess?). At this point I am so upset and desperate to leave that Id pay anything just to get the hell out of there. The man then snatches my drink from my hand, tells me Im intoxicated and that my boyfriend has threatened him (weve had two drinks and my boyfriend has barely spoken more than three sentences to this man). I am fighting the tears back as best I can and take out a credit card…which is also then snatched from my hand.We left directly after we got the card back.
My Favorite Miami Restaurant. This is hands down my favorite restaurant in Miami, and that is saying a lot considering there are so many great places to eat. It’s classy, the food is consistently delicious, the service is excellent and the clientele is always good looking. The only thing that makes me sad about this place is that they eliminated one of my favorite items on the menu which was the fish carpaccio. Otherwise, no complaints.
Romantic. I think Casa Tua is so romantic, is the perfect place to go for a date, and also the food is delicious, all the candles super, super romantic, if I could I would be there every day…. Love it…
This place is way over rated. Dont see what all the fuss is about
