Wow, here we are just finishing our early dinner. To start, the drinks are just what you order (I had a Cosmo, husband had a grey goose martini). We started with the calamari - cooked to perfection with an authentic marinara. I am a authentic New Yorker and this restaurant takes me back to Brooklyn and little Italy! We just... More

We walked into this place and you just knew you were in the right place! Being from KC, MO I grew up around great Italian restaurants, and this place just oozes with all the right flavors of Italy/Chicago/NYC. It's packed, people waiting to get in the door, older clientele, younger clientele, great wine list, great appetizers, we ended up going... More

I don't know where to start. Just go eat here, you won't be sorry. Eggplant cooked to perfection - I've never had anything so good. Waiters were so very knowledgeable about wines, suggested perfect pairing, and their after-dinner port was amazing. Don't be fooled by the non-descript strip mall location - the ambience and the food make this restaurant a... More

Nik puts on quite the show. Gratis wine as you walk in th edoor w a big party. fast, efficient service. Admittedly...the strip mall location is all that great, but the expereince inside and the food more than make up for that.

Is it true Nik is selling the place? Hope not, great food and service. Staff are attentive and professional. Great happy hour.

This little hard to find gem is amazing! Such a great Frank Sinatra atmosphere whether you sit and enjoy the fabulous bar or dine in. Terrific attentive service. They have the most delicious lasagna I've ever had. I also tried the veal piccata which was equally wonderful. If only I lived closer.... I'd be a regular!

Nik, the owner of Casanova, so graciously invites non-profit organizations each year to hold an event in order to raise awareness and funds for their cause. In addition, the food is tremendous authentic Italian cuisine. The atomosphere is great for a fun evening out with friends or for even a private dinner with your sweetheart! LOVE IT!!!!
