Linguine frutti di mare (seafood pasta) is absolutely delicious and has always been my go-to dish here. I order it every single time I visit because it has consistently been made to perfection. I’ve been coming to Castiglia for over 10 years, and this dish was one of the main reasons I kept coming back. Unfortunately, when I visited today, I was told that it’s no longer on the menu. I don’t know who decided to change the menu, but I was genuinely heartbroken to hear that they no longer sell the linguine frutti di mare. It was such a staple dish, and I truly hope they consider bringing it back in the future.
As for the service, it really depends on who your server is. Some servers are friendly and attentive, while others seem less engaged. Overall, the service is decent, but it could be more consistent.

Stopped in for lunch with some friends for the first time. The pizza was great — very flavorful and fresh! The service was disappointing though, we barely saw our waitress. Would try this place again though, since the pizza was cooked perfectly.

We came late to this restaurant at 9:00pm and they close at 10 but no one was at the restaurant. We were hesitant to eat but did. The spaghetti with meat sauce was decent but needed more salt or seasoning. The Works pizza slice was decent. It was not authentic but was tasty. The crust was crunchy.

Carlos was our waiter, and he was incredibly friendly and welcoming, always attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the menu. My son and I had front-row seats to the kitchen, which was a fun experience—we enjoyed watching the pizzas being prepared, and they looked absolutely delicious.
We started with the mozzarella sticks, which were perfectly cheesy, and the kids’ mac and cheese—my son rated it a 10 out of 10 for both taste and cheesiness (a rare compliment from him!). I had the steak tacos with aioli sauce; the steak was cooked perfectly and well-seasoned. While it was slightly fattier than my preference, the flavor was excellent.
Overall, the experience was enjoyable from start to finish, and we definitely plan to stop by again on a future visit.
I’ll also add that the pizza chef with the pony tale has a great smile ☺️ as well!

Great place to have a private party They have a venue behind the restaurant with its own entrance. Nice and roomy. Will hold a lot of people. Good times!

Food was delicious and service was ok but the restaurant was extremely loud. Not sure if it’s just the way it’s built and acoustic are loud? Not sure. Next time I will sit outside.

Mediocre at best. Ordered carbonara, Their Alfredo sauce is pretty much just oil, little cheese ,not very good. Would not order again. Scallops were ordered at table smelled very fishy.

I’m a little concerned that this staple is going to go out of business very soon if they don’t adjust quickly. We have so many amazing options downtown to choose from and Castiglia’s has now been placed last on my list and I’m sure it’s last on many others. We decided to stop by for Mothers Day brunch… and one of the main reasons is because I knew everywhere else was going to have a very long wait and/or the waitlist wasn’t even available until dinner time. We were seated immediately for a party of 5 which is what I was hoping. The temperature of the restaurant was a little hot and we started to sweat while waiting for the server to come to the table. While we waited for the rest of our party my mother and I decided to place an appetizer order. We ordered mozzarella sticks and fried calamari. I was immediately disappointed because the mozzarella sticks have changed. They were the frozen ones that have absolutely no seasoning in the batter. The last time I was at castiglias in January they were serving these amazing jumbo mozzarella sticks that were fresh and delicious. Why would you take those off and replace those with the grosser of the frozen ones? Don’t get me wrong, I can enjoy frozen mozzarella sticks but these were the ones you would order from a cheap bar or pizza joint with no expectation of quality. The fried calamari tasted extremely fishy and that’s not normal. Overly salted and like they were going bad. I ate one and could not go back for another bite.
Now our meal. We ordered steak and cheese, spaghetti, lobster ravioli, and a strawberry salad. I did put in a to go order for a slice of cheese pizza and a belly buster Stromboli for my husband and son at home. My brother in law enjoyed his steak and cheese. My mom really enjoyed her strawberry salad and loved the raspberry vinaigrette it came with but did mention that the chicken was a little spicy. I thought the lobster ravioli was okay, definitely not the best I’ve had but they were large and filling. The pink sauce it’s served with does taste a little like campbells tomato soup though. My grandma used to make a poor man’s pink sauce (her words, not mine) that included campbells tomato soup and heavy cream. It tasted identical to that. Now the spaghetti… I should have pre warned my sister because the marinara that served with the mozzarella sticks had no flavor and was the consistency of water, so naturally I expected it to be along the same lines as that. And it was. There was no flavor! She ended up just eating one of my lobster raviolis and boxing the rest. We had to take the spaghetti home and add our own Italian seasoning and garlic to elevate it to something you would want to eat. My husband did however enjoy his belly buster Stromboli. Moving forward I will just stick to ordering pizza if we do go back.
I do want to comment that our table was right next to the pick up window. I watched food sit there way too long and feel bad for whoever ordered spinach and artichoke dip that sat in that window for about 20 minutes. I witnessed so many servers, the floor manager, and the hostess just walk past it so many times. I used to work in the restaurant industry. Regardless of it’s your table or not… your priority is to deliver the food hot.
