    Surprising pleased, the food was delicious. It’s hard to eat Italian out as we are Italian and cook all the time, but the chicken parm, the veal parm, eggplant parm and gnocchi was off the chart!! Awesome job!

    This place is amazing. Food was delicious. Bread with their homemade sauce and grated cheese, delicious. Recommend the eggplant stack, meatballs,the gnocchi and lollipop lamb chops They treated us like family. There was a piano player who sang and the music was great. Our waiter also sang, and he was excellent . All servers treated the place liked they owned the restaurant. The Bar tender duo, were special. We had a great night.

    Amazing Italian restaurant. I have spent a lot of time in Italy and this is the closest restaurant I have found to being there. Chicken parmesan is the best I have ever had. The pasta is fresh, and the sauce that they pair with the bread is spectacular. Make sure you make a reservation.

    Always exceptional food. All of us loved our meals which included a seafood dish, Chicken Parmesan, and delicious gnocchi. The waitress may have been new and was good. Hostess and other waitstaff were excellent and helped us send a dessert to friend at bar. Enjoyed a drink at bar afterward, had terrific band, fun music. Overall great time! Will return again soon.

    Something bad happened to this place… Extremely loud music. at the end of the room I measured constant 96dB with peaks of 115dB which can easily cause hearing problems ( they have a new pianist / singer). Pasta (with tomato sauce) had no taste and clearly was not the usual fresh tomato sauce Had to return one of the entrees. Service was good but, quite frankly, I am not going back so soon!

    Food was average, nothing to write home about. Sicilian orange and fennel salad undersized and skimped on fennel and oranges. Pappardelle with mushrooms fresh, but saucy too rich. Best part was entertainment by Sherie.

    Casa Calabria never seems to disappoint. The food is outstanding. The service was perfect. Omar was very attentive, and super nice. This was the first time I went during the week, usually I go on Saturday night, so it was very quiet. It was my 25th Wedding Anniversary, and they were kind enough to comp our dessert. Very nice and graciuos. Can't wait to go back!

    Second time dining in this place with my wife. We enjoyed sitting outside and our server Giovanny was the best, funny and very helpful. You will be in good hands if he serves you. I just think they are a bit pricy… it was $200+ dinner for 2. But, we enjoyed it with a bottle of wide and great atmosphere sitting outside area.
