First time there, we were greeted right away. The food was amazing! The frwahmade gnocchi was delicious!!!! Somehow had leftovers after stuffing our faces with deep-fried ravioli and starter salads too.
So good, will definitely be back!

This place is truly magical. Firstly, the atmosphere feels like a hidden treasure in Italy, with soft classical music playing and historic walls that tell stories of the past, creating a cozy and authentic ambiance. Secondly, the food was exceptional: the mozzarella sticks were perfectly crispy and cheesy, the chicken parmesan was flavorful with a rich tomato sauce and melty cheese, and the lasagna was baked to perfection with layers of savory meat and cheese. To conclude the meal, the tiramisu cheesecake was incredibly indulgent, with just the right balance of coffee flavor and creaminess. Last but not least, the service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making the experience even more enjoyable. If you are seeking something authentic, classic, and evocative of Italy, this is the place to visit.

Very Slow service, got served a moldy glass of wine which was a first, food was decent. I'm sure it's a great place but wasn't the best the night that we went there.

Don't sleep on this choice. Amazing time tonight. Deep fried ravioli were delightful, Mozza sticks were enormous and tasty. Meat lasagna was everything! Service was wonderful.

We visited La Casa Nostra for the first time on Valentine’s Day and were so pleasantly surprised. From the moment we walked in, the quaint, cozy decor set the tone for a romantic evening. It felt intimate without being fussy, charming without trying too hard.
The live piano music was absolutely lovely. It added just the right touch of elegance and made the whole evening feel special. Fresh flowers on the table were a beautiful detail that didn’t go unnoticed.
Our waitress was fabulous. Attentive, warm, and perfectly timed with everything. The food was excellent, with generous portions and desert was a real treat although I can’t remember the name of it. Ice cream floating in espresso drizzled with chocolate.
We did have a small reservation mix up when we arrived, so I would suggest double checking your booking just to be safe. That said, the staff handled it graciously and quickly seated us at a truly lovely table, so it hardly dampened the evening.
Overall, a wonderful experience and a Valentine’s dinner we’ll happily remember. We will definitely be back.
Four of us had dinner here tonight and were first timers. Food, service and atmosphere was excellent. We had Chicken Parm, Spaghetti with meatballs & 2 of us had the Meat lasagna. Portions were just the right size which allowed for some take aways. Over well done 👍!

My sisters and I celebrated one of my sisters birthday and our waitress was absolutely Devine and enthusiastic. She made our night memorable. We all ordered something different Meat lasagna. Seafood stuffed shells and the stuffed peppers. Thankyou for the wonderful food and great proportions Plus the atmosphere and Italian music lightly playing the background, made everything the more worth while being there Grazie amico mios ❤️

Went to La Casa Nostra Ristorante last night for the first time with my fiancé and my family who are visiting thanks to my mom finding this place. OFF THE CHARTS! In addition to us all having a spectacular time with the cozy Christmas music playing and the amazing staff, the food was ridiculously good. We ordered the mozzarella sticks (NEVER seen them made this way! For once we weren’t fighting over them because one is PERFECT) as well as the meat lasagna, pork cutlet, gnocchi, and manicotti. I grabbed a bite of everything, and despite not being a pork person, I enjoyed it all so much!! And so did everyone else at the table. The marinara?! Oh my God. The garlic bread? Insane. Our waiter Tony? A GEM! Super funny, super kind, super efficient. And it’s local, family owned, and operated which is the best. You really can’t go wrong here (even the women’s bathroom is awesome. Go look.) Five stars all around. I will be taking all my friends when they visit!
Reservation recommended, marinara made daily
Already decided what I am ordering next time I can go and just trying to find an excuse to swing by! If new in town or you’re visiting Thunder Bay and need to place to eat: this is the way
