restaurant review - Casa Nuova
Casa Nuova - http://www.casanuovarestaurant.net/
located in N. Alpharetta
DH and I drove there Friday night by recommendation of someone at our club. It is located in a small shopping center off of Hwy 9 that you would never go to unless you had heard about it.
We called a little early and got a reservation. When we got there, the restaurant was packed so we ended up waiting about 20 minutes. Enough time to enjoy a glass of wine at the bar. Everyone there was super friendly. We ordered fried mozzarella as an appetizer. you know it's going to be good when they are sticks that are brought out. the marinara sauce was sweet and the mozzarella was fresh. DELISH!!! dh ordered a ceaser salad that i tried. it was pretty good, but the croutons were super peppery. for dinner, i ordered chicken scallopini in a lemon herb sauce. it was heavenly!!! dh ordered veal scallopini - one of their specials. it was 3 veal medalions with squash medalions on top covered in mozzarella and fontina cheese melted on top. dh said it was fantastic. good thing about this place is that they use vegetables grown from their own garden. you could tell how fresh everything was. both of our dishes came with a side of pasta with that wonderfully sweet marinara sauce. of course, we had to have dessert. we got creme brulee cheesecake and coffee. both were fantastic. i love me a good cup of coffee.
pros - phenominal food, our water glasses never got below 1/2 empty, servers and owners were incredibly nice and attentive, made you feel like family
cons - long drive (but soooooo worth it), crowded and noisy (both add to the ambiance of the place).
if you are looking to try something new, definitely make the drive up to casa nuova. you will not be disappointed!!!
