Casa ‘closed for future bookings’

By Martin Booth  Tuesday Oct 22, 2024

The latest iteration of one of Bristol’s most acclaimed restaurants of recent years is “closed for future bookings”, with diners recommended to book a table at their sister restaurant.

Casa, overlooking Bathurst Basin in Redcliffe, opened in November 2022 on the former site of the Michelin-starred Casamia.

It was a return of Peter Sanchez-Iglesias and his family to cooking Italian food just as they did when they first opened Casamia in Westbury-on-Trym in 1999.

EatDrink24/7 Launch Party is back on July 8 2026!
Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.

In January, Sanchez-Iglesias posted on Instagram that “Casamia will reopen again”.

Sanchez-Iglesias is currently executive chef at Decimo in London as well as co-owning Paco Tapas, next door to Casa on Lower Guinea Street.

A statement on Casa’s website says: “At this moment, we are closed for future bookings. If you’re looking to book a restaurant, please check out our sister restaurant, Paco Tapas.

“All vouchers for Casa will be honoured at Paco Tapas. If you have any concerns or queries, please contact us at [email protected]

“Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you soon!”

Bristol24/7 has contacted the team at Casa for comment.
