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.

    Consistently over the years the finest all-around dining experience in the East Bay. Exceptional food, always consistent; wonderful personal service (in this case, from fabulous Christine); gorgeous decor and flowers. A gem at reasonable prices.

    Always a great throwback experience. Arrived early for 7:45 Rez and enjoyed the historic pictures in the lobby. Enjoyed the super crunchy cold iceberg lettuce, the amazing baked potato, tasty steak with eggplant and veg. Fun crowd with families celebrating and just hanging out. They were busy but the service was friendly.

    Tried the New York steak. Let’s just say I’m sticking with the fried chicken. Tough with a lot of grizzle. Service was the slowest ever, and she wasn’t really that busy.

    Casa is true and tried original restaurant in Orinda. It has stood the test of time day after day providing great food and great service. I hope it lasts 20 more years or 30.

    Felt some (2 of the 4) of the dinners we’re not as good as they used to be, especially for the prices now. It was very noisy in the back room! I was disappointed. the service was good however.

    We had a great table off to the side where we could talk and visit with long time friends while enjoying our delicious fired chicken dinner. Our server was excellent !

    Consistant. I've been a customer at Casa Orinda since 1957. It is now 2025 and I keep on returning. The surroundings are unique and have become as comfortable as an old, well-worn pair of shoes. Always greeted with dignity and respect, the food is consistently good. Fried chicken, prime rib, ham and eggs, last night it was the special risotto. Delicious!
