    Overall an enjoyable experience. Service not up to the price point for this restaurant. Food was pretty good. The seafood linguini was really good. We were finishing up meal when the waitress came by to ask if we needed anything. The sommelier never came by to ask how we liked the he chose for us. Definitely go there if you are looking for a casual expensive dining experience. Best meal we had in Carmel over 4 nights

    All wonderful except for a noisy young girl who doesn’t need to scream and cry in such a wonderful establishment. Bad parenting.

    Haven’t did Maeck for several years, but really enjoyed the experience. Love the extensive Wine list and the choices of starters and entrées were superb. The bone marrow and cannelloni were our choices… Couldn’t go wrong

    The food was good, the cannelloni was a 10/10 I enjoyed every single bite. The gnocchi was good but I probably would just stick to the cannelloni next time. Great service and the place felt like a home. Definitely would come again

    Casanova’s interior is rustic , chic and romantic, whether you’re seated inside the house or in the back courtyard. The service was top notch and our dinner was superb. My husband had the carrot salad to start followed by the sole diver sole, cooked to perfection and skillfully flirted by our capable server. I had the bursts cheese served with asparagus and lightly drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I had the white sea bass filet as my main course which was seared and served with a very light, and just enough cream sauce with a side of asparagus and morel mushrooms. I fell in love with the Gorius family’s Chardonnay, bright at first turning to creamy and rich. Perfect for me! A little pricey, but with every penny!

    Everything was great only complaint I have is the our waiter seemed a little a rude to us, at least compared to the other tables. Kinda felt she thought she was better than me and my wife.
