Carmella's Casa Italiana

Carmella's Casa Italiana brings the taste of Italy with a menu of chicken, veal, fish, pasta, and pizza. We are a favorite of tourists and locals alike. We hope you can find everything you need. Carmella's Casa Italiana is focused on providing high quality service and customer satisfaction, whether at our place or your place - we will do everything we can to meet your expectations.

Just think, we can save you from:

cooking
cleaning-up the kitchen
driving to the grocery store
preparing multiple meals to please everyone
stressing out because there is no time to enjoy your family
cutting coupons (mention 'Lee's the Very Best' for a 10% total ticket discount)
headaches because there isn't enough food (no one leaves hungry)
arguing over dessert (let'em eat cake~Ralph makes the best tiramisu around)
falling into bed exhausted (you just enjoyed a relaxing meal that you didn't cook)

Now go find out!

Carmella's Casa Italiana at night

Carmella's Casa Italiana at night. Picture yourself on the bench while your mouth waters and you read our menu. It doesn't get any better than this....unless you're seated inside enjoying a fabulous meal specially prepared for you.

Carmella Sperlunto's Casa Italiana Restaurant and Pizzeria is very much at home in its location on 26th Street West in Bradenton, Florida. In keeping with the spirit of a casual dining place with an emphasis on steady clientele and great cuisine, Carmella's Casa Italiana is uplifting and inviting, with bold colors and Italian music creating the backdrop for an enjoyable day or night out. Carmella, who believes in taking care of customers personally, can often be found in the dining room, engaged in conversation. Carmella's Casa Italiana is family owned and operated and Ralph, her son, is one of the cooks and Deborah, her sister, manages the dining room. Tim, a close and trusted family friend, is the other cook.

Ralph and Tim are talented, conscientious, and knowledgeable. All meals are deliciously prepared using the highest quality and freshest ingredients available. They are served with expert charm, making everyone feel right at home. Customers are welcome to sit at the counter for a front row seat to watch Ralph toss the pizzas or watch Ralph or Tim create the ultimate and flavorful dishes that make us a Bradenton favorite. We have a sense of pride and determination in creating the best in Italian cuisine. We are dedicated to the highest standards in all aspects of our operation and consider customer service are #1 priority.

We also offer Take-Out, Delivery, and Catering Services. Let us be your personal chef for all occasions, such as family functions, business meetings, or simply a gathering of friends. We look forward to serving you and satisfying your hunger!

We have a full service menu that includes beer and wine, appetizers, salads, pizzas, specialty pizzas, pastas, entrees, hamburgers and hot and cold subs, desserts, and numerous non-alcoholic beverages, including the Florida Favorite: tap water. Don't miss out on the tiramisu. It is homemade by Ralph. Of course, the food portions are so large and the food so delicious that typically no one has room for dessert, so do what you can to save some room for the tiramisu.

On Mondays and Tuesdays we open at 4:00 pm and start with the Early Bird Special. Happy Hour is from 4-7 and features 2 for 1 draft beers. We start serving lunch at 11:00 am on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. The Early Bird menu runs from 3-5 and Happy Hour goes from 4-7. Lunch on Sunday starts at noon and Happy Hour lasts all day. If you have a luncheon request for a group larger than 5 on a day when we are not open for lunch, with advance notification, we will open for you. Remember,if you're there between 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm, be sure to check out the Early Bird Menu which features lighter portions and lower prices. (The computers are set up with the aformentioned specials during the times indicated. In other words, we are unable to extend Hour Hour or the Early Bird Menu beyond the times indicated.)

Deliveries stop each evening around 8:30/8:45 pm depending on the size of the order and distance from the restaurant.

Remember, we make it all from scratch, so please call by 7:00 pm for next day delivery of large catering orders. To ensure your food will be ready right when you want it, we encourage you to call 24 hours in advance.

We are initiating an email campaign and Loyalty Program. Please leave your email address with Deborah or any staff member to receive the bi-monthly newsletter that includes news and views.
