What a disappointment.
I arrived during a power outage, but was told I was more than welcome to come in and have a glass of wine and bread service (or anything cold) if I wanted to wait out the power. I've been looking forward to this restaurant for awhile, so I agreed. I was seated, and about 5 minutes later, a couple was seated next to me. As soon as they sat down, the waitress came by to greet them, and asked if they wanted any water, and what kind. The couple ordered, and I assumed the waitress would turn around and ask me the same, but she just took off. She returned with their water, and then took their wine order, again fully ignoring me. When she brought their wine, she finally asked if I wanted water, and then left quickly before I could order wine. The power came back on about 15 minutes later, and the waitress quickly came over and took my order, but was rushing me the whole time. I finally was able to also order my wine. She then turned around and was super patient with the couple. Soon after, she arrived with the couple's appetizers, and still no wine. My meal arrived about 10 minutes later, and I asked the gentleman giving me my dish for my wine, and he told me I had to ask my waitress. She came by about 10 minutes later asking about my food, and I asked for my wine which she said she totally forgot about. Another 10 minutes go by, and I'm almost done with half my dinner before my wine showed up. She was the one who delivered dinner to the couple and wished them a wonderful meal. The same gentleman who dropped off my food, then picked it up. Soon after, the waitress showed up asking if I wanted dessert, but I just wanted out, so I declined. She returned instantly with my bill that had once again left out my wine. I tried to tell her, but she had no interest in talking to me, so I guess for my troubles, I got a free glass of wine. The food? It was ok. I had the duck, but for the price point, I've definitely had better. Won't be returning here again.
Be the first to ReplyThe food didn't live to the expectation.
The caviar serving were missing the egg white and chive and cream fresh. Service was mediocre they refused to provide us with two separate bills as they were four of us and simply asked for two separate bills as soon as we sat. I told the waiter if we were sitting on two tables then he would provide two bills. Overall it was not a pleasant dinning experience.
Be the first to ReplyMy husband and I have been in Carmel countless times but
My husband and I have been in Carmel countless times but this was our first time dining at Casanova. We knew the restaurant would be busy on weekends so we arrived and waited for it to be opened since we had no reservations. We put our name down and was 2nd in line. The hostess said they will text us when the table is ready but we waited for awhile without hearing anything. I then came in to ask for estimated wait time, the hostess ignored me and left me standing there for 10 minutes. New people coming in were greeted and I was just awkwardly standing there. We did not feel welcomed at all. However, I have to say the foods and rest of the staff were amazing. Hence 3 stars. It was too bad that the experience was soured by the hostess. We will not be back to Cassnova.

While walking by with our 3 children we were stopped and asked if we liked French onion soup - happens to be my fav and it was their soup of the day! You can't tell from the outside what an incredible ambiance the restaurant has, once you walk in you're transported to an Italian Villa al fresco. Great music and decor, and beautiful tree growing in the middle of their inner patio. We enjoyed our lunch so much we came back for dinner with our parents. Everyone enjoyed their meal, the gnocchi appetizer was the best gnocchi we have ever had. Also enjoyed the mushrooms. The filet was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Also enjoyed the cannelloni very much. From the food to the incredible servers and wonderful vibe, we can't wait to come back! Loved they had coloring for the kids too.
Be the first to ReplyWhat a beautiful little restaurant.
We were greeted warmly, given a lovely, quiet, intimate table, as we requested and were taken care of like we were the only ones there. It was truly a wonderful and romantic evening. Each course was phenomenal. What a perfect way to celebrate my husband's birthday and our first night out since having our baby. We will be making this a monthly visit.

It was our 23rd anniversary and we had a great time! Very pricey, very delicious, very special experience; well worth it! It must be the best wine list in all of Monterey.

Absolutely charming and delicious food! We had a lovely table inside with very attentive servers. The ambiance was rustic and quiet so you could really hear a conversation and relax. Our drinks were fabulous, especially the French 75. We started w a root vegetable soup which was amazing and hit the spot on a cold night. Entrees we're the cannoli and pork chop which were delicious and cooked perfectly. Highly recommend and we'll be back!
Be the first to ReplyThis is my favorite restaurant in Carmel, and I have been
This is my favorite restaurant in Carmel, and I have been coming here for years. Their outdoor covered patio is such a wonderful ambiance! And of course their cozy indoor dining is absolutely charming too. I have never had a dish here that I did not like. When I had soup, they brought out the pot from the kitchen and poured it in my bowl. Reminds me of Al fresco country dining in Europe. The main dishes are exquisite. And if you are a wine connoisseur, make sure to request a tour of the wine cellar - they have wines available there that you will find no where else. I love this place and am so grateful that it is as good as it was when I used to dine there with my mom 40 years ago.

Customer service A+++ Thank you Christine at the front desk for making our eve g so rememberable. The food service was top notch as you would expect. Food exceptional! Chef even was able to accommodate a special request on a busy holiday evening. I cannot recommend this fine establishment enough. A+++
Be the first to ReplyI really loved this unique little place.
Very small and intimate but such grand food. I just loved the Canneloni. I could not get enough of it. I always ordered the same thing because it tasted so good. The staff are all so wonderful here. If I hadn't moved away I'd still be eating here.
Be the first to ReplyExcellent dining experience! So nice to have quaint patio
Excellent dining experience! So nice to have quaint patio dining experiences with excellent food. We started with the escargot, which happens to be some of the best that mom and I have had. The Seafood Fettuccine was divine and I apologize for no pic of that, we were hungry! One thing I really appreciated was having a sommelier. He chose us a perfect French wine that paired beautifully with our two dishes. Mom finished off her meal with their Rice Pudding with toasted hazelnuts, very satisfying. We will definitely be back!

Returned years later and the gnocchi was just as creamy as I remember! I didn't make reservations and was seated right away. Attentive service! Selections broken up into courses. Beef Cannelloni was a tasty second accompaniment after the gnocchi!
Be the first to ReplyWow, where do I start.
The ambient is amazing. Felt like I'm at home. The food is out of this world. Menu is not big, but every dish we tried was just perfectly prepared. We'll come back next time when we're in Carmel.
Be the first to ReplyThis is such a cute little restaurant, indoor seating is
This is such a cute little restaurant, indoor seating is very limited so make sure to reserve early. We sat outdoor and they had given us blankets as it was super chilly at night, even under the blanket. We had a good assortment of food but what stood out the most was the spinach gnocchi & the burrata! I wish it was portion just wish it was bigger. The lamb shank was good not as tender as I'd hope. The escargot were a good size not too chewy and cooked perfectly and drenched in butter we dipped our bread in. We had the salad and some oysters. ย And a chocolate tart to end the evening! Cocktail Drinks were super strong too if you are looking to have a great time! Service was excellent! Oh and btw if you ask for hot water they charge you just FYI so that as a surprise on our receipt. But regardless the food was Yum O!

We just dined there tonight and let me begin by saying how cute and adorable the place is. With that said, the staff were all great! Except one staff, not a waiter, but food runner/busser? We ordered the calamari and gnocchi as starters. Both excellent. I ordered the Dover sole, also excellent. My friend ordered the lamb shank and that was HORRIBLE. Took one bite and couldn't eat the rest. The meat was gamier than usual lamb shank and there was absolutely no taste. We waited for our waiter to ask us why we didn't eat it but the busser took the dish away so fast. If I were the manager, I'd train the employees to ask why guests left their meal untouched and not wanting to take it home. It's a toss up whether I'd return for this reason.

My hubby took me here for Valentine's Day and I had such a wonderful time! ย The ambiance was so warm, calming, romantic and welcoming. ย I love how they setup their outdoor seating. ย It is a little snug meaning it's a little crammed but we didn't mind. ย The food was amazing and although I don't eat lamb (my hubby ordered the lamb) + I don't eat lamb ย because they are cute but the polenta and onions around it was delicious. ย My dish was a braised beef cannelloni and omg it was so delicious! ย The burratta cheese was amazing . ย For dessert I had their rice pudding with crushed hazelnuts and it was so yummmmmy!
Be the first to ReplyDelicious food, I recommend the duck confit.
The staff is very friendly and the ambiance is great. Been here a few times and definitely recommend it for anyone visiting Carmel by the sea.
Be the first to ReplyOur meal has fantastic.
To eat i had Canneloni and my husband had the duck. They were both amazing. Our server was amazing and very polite & knew the menu well. We both had strawberry lemon drops to drink & it was delicious. Our only complaint of the whole night was this bald man running around, very aggressively. He had come by our table multiple times without actually doing anything to help us and his energy didn't seem to mix with the atmosphere. I was trying to enjoy a nice meal & he seemed like he was trying to win a race which didn't add to me night well at all. Would recommend to anyone looking for quality food and drinks!
Be the first to ReplyWe have been coming to this restaurant for years.
We had dinner here on Friday night snd it was one of the worst dinners and the highest price we've had in years. We will never return. $75 for two little pieces of steak that was tough to chew and no flavor! $58 for a piece of fish with no taste! I'm in shock at the prices ! We didn't even get and entire steak for $75! Not sure why the prices are so out of control but definitely not worth it!!

If you're under the age of 35 don't expect to not be ignored or receive any decent service. I was so excited to come and was extremely disappointed when we were ignored after everyone around us was greeted by the server AND the manager.
