Customer Reviews
We are from out of town, but we look forward to stopping here each time we’re in the area. We love the atmosphere, it gives a romantic classy vibe (unusual for the area). The food has been consistently good each visit. We enjoy the pizza a lot- we do wish they offered beef as a pizza topping, they have only pork options and chicken. The bread is very good and soft. The Alfredo also is good. We look forward to trying other pasta dishes in the future. Tiramisu is a must!
Likely had not been here for seven years or so. Nostalgia can sometimes bite you where it hurts. I'm happy to say this trip down memory lane was pleasant with yummy food and a celebratory experience. Three different parties had a guest with a birthday. Each of those were met with staff singing accompanied by the piano. The elderly couple seated next to us were treated with deference. The waitress doted on them going as far to cut their steak for them. What's changed in seven years? I suppose the prices are higher (but they are everywhere). I don't recall a sign for narcan in the bathroom which is a sad reality. I'm glad they want to save lives.
Great Italian food and outstanding Pizza!
We went out for a Friday night fish fry last night and decided to try Cannova's because we have always had good food and enjoy the atmosphere, we often dine out 3 or 4 nights per week and often drive a ways to try different establishments. Our choice last night will never be repeated or forgotten! A fine Italian restaurant with such a great history should be absolutely ashamed of serving such a terrible meal! The fish fry consisted of two pieces of breaded fish sticks very similar to what I was fed for lunch at the Catholic school during lent cafeteria style served on top of a handful of crinkle cut fries and a side of coleslaw from Walmart. The absolute worst dining experience we have ever had. When I asked for a side of ketchup for the fries the Waitress brought a empty dirty bottle
Amazing pasta and a lovely atmosphere! The staff is friendly, and some nights there’s live piano music, which adds a special touch. The food is always delicious. Highly recommend!
