This is my spot! Been coming to La Casa for over 40 years and the food has always been on point. It's a great feeling knowing we have a local family owned small business in Alexandria that is successful. Thank you for the many memories you all have provided over the years through great food, and atmosphere. Keep up the great work. Thank you.

My absolute go-to restaurant for a lunch or dinner with friends and family. I love their laid back ambiance with locals and regulars. Staff is so friendly and attentive, Brenda is always sure to make your visit worth coming back again. I usual order a delicious Mojito, Mule, or Mimosa and am never disappointed. Salmon salad, feta appetizer, lasagna, and pizza are always the best. I eat too fast to get pictures but today I captured the lasagna!

As far as I know, this is the only restaurant in this area serving Greek food. There's also pizza and other Italian choices on the menu as well as daily specials. The food is always good, portions are large, and prices are reasonable.

Pretty basic fare but they do Italian, Greek and American so it's my spot for a Gyro or baked Ziti. Their pizza isn't one I do a lot but it's passable and some friends don't mind it at all. Service is excellent, prices have gone up but still reasonable. Plenty of parking and never had to wait to be seated. I do like their Apple Pie and my wife likes the Baklava.

I had a good time here. Ordered the mozzarella sticks, crispy chicken sandwich, small spicy pizza, and the gyro platter. I don’t have any complaints. Mozzarella sticks are as you expect it, classic and good. I enjoyed the chicken sandwich. The chicken is on the thinner side so if you prefer it thick, you might want to pass on this one. My husband liked the spicy pizza. He said it was a bit greasy but that’s what you can expect with all those toppings. The crust is on the thinner side as well. For the gyro platter, we don’t have anything to compare it to since this was our first time trying gyro. So not too much to say on it except it was good. They have a bar with 2 tvs that looked like a popular spot when dining alone. Overall good experience, good service, good food.

The place felt very homey and the service was good. The food all had good flavor and you could tell most things were homemade. With the chicken kabab I do wish it came with a white sauce instead of marinara sauce, but overall it was good.
