"Went here for a double date with friends. We had reservations at 615pm and the restaurant was filled. We were seated promptly next to the fireplace. Our waiter was Trent. Inside the restaurant there is a nice atmosphere with glowing lights and a bustling crowd. Tables are close together to fit as many patrons as possible and the noise level in the restaurant was somewhat loud. We ordered the Branzino, Vodka Pasta and the Wagyu Meatballs. Everything tasted delicious and fresh. It even arrived quickly after ordering. Service is good as they have multiple people cleaning your table. Parked on the street. While dropping off my wife at the restaurant one of the valet employees feverishly honked and high beamed me to get out of the way. It was very rude and unprofessional as he had zero patience. Sir if you are reading this take a chill pill. Besides this ugly moment we enjoyed our time at Casalena with our friends."

"We celebrated my Aunts 70th Birthday Surprise Party on their Sundeck which offers a view of the patio on a covered space. The catered food, Appetizers, drinks and main course were all flavorful and tasty! The service was very attentive and friendly! Plan to come back for the dinner menu and drinks. The whole place has great natural light on the first and second floor. Definitely an amazing space for events like wedding receptions, Birthdays, and other celebrations. Valet Parking is your best option when driving your personal vehicle. You can spend a grip here in a minute but worth it."

"This place is pretty esthetically. Our server was Jordan and he truly was great and attentive. His recommendations were spot on. The food is very good! My Sicilian cocktail was refreshing. My 2 complaints are: 1st the box restaurant is overly noisy. Hard to have a convo without hearing your neighbors. This is nowhere near a place for quiet or romantic. 2nd some of the food items can be overly salty or just too flavorful. May sound strange but it's a thing. I will try to visit the upstairs area or lunch & see if the food is just as good without the extreme noise."

"Wow we were quiet surprised by the taste/quality of the food, atmosphere, and most importantly the friendly service. I drive to the library the whole time and didn’t realize this gem. The truffle fries were amazing. There have a few Vegan options and my wife liked it. I like my chicken Parmesan (non-vegan). Will definitely come back again!"

"I came here for a work dinner and the location was beautiful. From the bar to the dining area, the location was simply amazing. The food was really good, I felt that anything one ordered would taste great. I wasn't impressed by the drinks though. Their espresso martini was missing something and the margarita didn't taste like it had any alcohol."
