   Food was overall, good. The cannelloni was excellent. Service was a bit slow but we were outside on patio and not right in front of them.

   10 years ago this was an amazing place. No longer. Dry wagyu steak for $100. I’m not sure how that can be accomplished. Such great memories there, never again.

   Lovely spot, charming and warm interior; feels smaller than it is. Great service and accommodating host ( we were an hour early). And great food!

   This used to be my favorite restaurant in the WORLD! We are foodies and I have to say I was VERY disappointed this time around at Casanova. It was a reunion of friends that dined here years ago together and have been back many times after but this time was just plain bad. The food was mediocre at best. The escargot lacked any flavor and no extra butter sauce for dipping. The pork chops also lacked seasoning and even our salad was uneventful. All is all I think after they have been praised and won a Michelin plate award they forgot what got them there. The atmosphere and service made up for some but the food is what should bring you back.

   Wonderful restaurant that we’ve been to several times. Food and service was a bit less consistent that usual on this particular visit, but we’ll certainly be back again.

   A stop for us whenever we have a night in Carmel. Consistently delicious with sterling service, it’s a cut above the neighboring restaurants. We always start with the Gnocchi and get entrees to share.

    Overall good experience the food was very delicious. Server did okay, a little serious for my liking. While the food was very good, portions were a little small in my opinion. Love the ambiance and overall vibe of the restaurant.
