Beloved old-school Eagle Rock pizzeria for thin-crust pies, hearty pastas, and nostalgic vibes; bring cash and expect waits and lively noise.
Restaurant Summary
Casa Bianca feels like a warm time capsule on Colorado Blvd: red-sauce aromas, vinyl booths, and a lively room packed with families and date-night duos. Service is classic table-side and energetic. As one diner put it, "It feels like stepping back in time, in the best way." Bring patience for the line and your cash. The cooking leans classic Italian-American: crispy thin-crust pies with edge-to-edge toppings, hearty lasagna, sausage and peppers, and shareable antipasto platters. Fans rave about the Pizza Bianco and sausage pies; occasional dissent notes a dry or bland pie on off nights. If you want creativity, look elsewhere; if you want comforting nostalgia, this hits. Families do well here. Kids can split a cheese or pepperoni pie, simple spaghetti with marinara or butter, and finish with spumoni or cannoli. There is a gluten-free small pie and vegetarian-friendly pastas, but vegan choices are limited. Expect $35-50 per person for a full meal in USD, and remember the cash-only policy.
