Four of us shared a bottle of champagne, bread, one appetizer, one salad and four entrees and it came to over $425 before tip. \n\nService was not as attentive as expected for this price point. After finishing a bottle of champagne at the start of our meal no one asked if we wanted a bottle of wine to accompany our entrees. \n\nThe $12 \"bread service\" is a meager 4 pieces of warm toasted bread with some butter and tapenade. No additional bread replenishment is included even though we still had some tapenade left. \nThe gnocchi appetizer was tasty and cheesey but a little too soft.\nThe entrees were all good or very good but not memorable. Sauces and dressings are bland. The green salad is an uninspired lettuce with bland dressing.\n\nThe wine list is huge but has very few bottles for under $100.

We have been going to Casanova for 40 years and have never been disappointed. We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary this week at Casanova. The service and hospitality were amazing from the hostess to the sommelier to the server. They accommodated us with our table of choice, suggested lovely champagne, wines and entrees. And, did I mention the fabulous dessert? It was a special evening at our special place.
Thank you Casanova!

Excellent service, atmosphere and well presented, delicious food. It had been a long time since I’ve been and now I remember why it’s so hard to get a reservation. Highly recommend it!
