Case Nova was a wonderful dining experience. The staff was very attentive my I dropped my fork on the floor and they immediately replaced it without even asking. The food was well prepared and delicious. My kids got their fill (and then some) of the rodizio and it did not disappoint. They brought out the “good stuff” first and it only got better for us and the night progressed. The sangria is dangerously delicious - highly recommend. We will be returning to enjoy another meal soon. Thank you!
