    Good Italian food. Attentive service, but a little hard to get the check. However, I think the waiter just didn't want to rush us out. The only reason it was a little noisy was because we happen to be seated close to an industrial fan.

    I had my first date here at Casa Nostra and let me just say, I could not have chosen a better location to have that intimate time with them. The food was amazing, service was outstanding and the whole ambience was well worth it. Martin was our server and he went beyond in like have asked for to allow us to have the space and service we needed to enjoy our dinner. He answered all our questions with knowledge and he really set the experience for this place. When I do go back, I want him to help us again. Great experience and great food. Thank you 🙌🏽

    Casa Nostra gets an A+ from us. Dining at its best. We parked right in the lot -so easy and convenient. We were greeted by the host and waiters politely. Our server was prompt and courteous. Had our glass of wine and the good bread immediately. The salmon was perfectly cooked and no charge for the broccoli that was plentiful. We split a half of a caesar salad and it was plenty. The portions are such that we have another whole dinner for tonight. Very generous and very generous on the wine pour. For the beautiful meal and evening that we had we would have paid considerably more at another of our favorite restaurants. The renovation is perfect - much the same and very comfortable. The waiters and the help are worthy of praise. We loved our evening there and will be back more often than in the past. This is now our very favorite restaurant!

    We eat here at least twice a month. There is a good selection of specials every day, and if you don't see what you like on the menu, ask the waiter if the kitchen can put together a different dish. I order calamari salad nearly every time I visit. My other favorite is the fresh fish with tomato, olives, and capers. The pizza oven will be returning soon.

    Big problem that Casa Nostra has decided not to serve pizza anymore. Such a bad decision. Our meal was very good: chicken parmigiana, Osso bucco , spinach salad, super Tuscan wine. Quite expensive- for a Monday night at a neighborhood restaurant. Put the pizza oven back in… pronto
