About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Casa Orinda has been serving the finest Western and Italian food in the area for the past 84 years. We are famous for our fried chicken, prime beef, and classic Italian pasta, chicken, and veal dishes -- everything being made from scratch in our kitchen using only the freshest, highest quality ingredients.

Our full service mahogany bar is a popular stop for locals and visitors looking for a nice refreshment and a hearty meal in a cozy, friendly atmosphere. We have three dining rooms, each with a slightly different character afforded by our hand-formed brass hearth fireplace, Western original art collection, famous antique gun collection, and alluring floral arrangements.

    We love the food here. So much variety everyone can find something and you won’t get bored with the menu. We both tried a couple of the specials. The portions are large so always some leftovers thankfully. Our server was perfectly attentive and the pace was just right. I’m sure we will be back. (Even the valet service is great!)

    Side room was very noisy, which made conversation very difficult.

    Never a bad meal and portions worthy for the price. This is a family owned restaurant that has gone on for decades

    It's wonderful to see that Casa Orinda has maintained its popularity over all these years. We went at 5 p.m. on a Sunday and it was hopping - the bartender was a bit overwhelmed! Al 8 i my party enjoyed their meals. I had sweetbreads and they were delicious - it was so nice they were on the menu becasue you rarely see them served at restaurants anymore. Our waiter was attedntive without being overbeting. Everyone agreed that our meal at Casa Orinda was worth going back again. It was especially ice to have a round table so we could all talk to each other.
