We ate lunch at the casa ristorante Italiano on King Street, Darling Harbor. We started with a couple of White Rabbit Dark Ales. They were served without glasses, just in the bottle. But the beer tastes the same- very nice! We ordered their calamari, a Caesar salad and their oysters (no name, just listed as large Pacific oysters). The Caesar was crisp with lots of shaved parmesan and slivers of ham or prosciutto, along with hard-boiled egg haves. The oysters were very disappointing, and I would not recommend ordering them. They were served with a couple of lemon wedges. I asked for and was brought some vinegar, a normal accompaniment. The texture of the oysters was best described as too soft and except for one which had an off flavor, they were unremarkable. The calamari were OK but also nothing to make them stand out. We finished with their Tiramisu, which was average (but weak for an authentic Italian restaurant). As you can tell, we were disappointed in meal. Especially considering that we have eaten at four other restaurants along King Street this past week and each of them were excellent. On a more positive side, it did seem like several patrons ordered pizza, perhaps that was casa ristorante Italiano’s forte. Waitstaff were upbeat and responsive. They also should get recognition for their using Greenspace vertical sustainable gardens for growing their microgreens.
