We always have an amazing time at Casa, with Martino as our affable host. Michaele regaled us with their bountiful specials, each more delightful than the next! Francisco helped us navigate their biblical wine list and guided us to a lovely Burgundy wine to accompany our pillowy gnocchi a-la-vodka, snapper livornese, & stuffed veal chop Marsala. We ended with an amazing chocolate layered mousse and a classic espresso Martini, Chef Angelo even stopped by to say hello. Thanks to Martino and the whole team at Casa for consistently providing a superior dining experience!
