I Have heard a lot of wonderful things about this restaurant. All Of my friends eat there once or twice a week. The food is the best in Flagler and Palm Coast. I have tried them all and none of them compare to this one.I did not even know they were there.We started with the bruchetta. I must say I have not tasted better in my entire life, not even in Italy.The pizza Thin crust cooked to perfection.People rave about Bruno's, but they will not anymore after they try La Casanova's. Big does not mean better. My husband had the shrimp Fra Diavlo. Usually when he gets it from other places it is much to ho to the point where he cannot enjoy it. The chef suggested he get it mild so he did. My husband licked the plate clean. My friends husband Ate the Veal Marsala which he said was the most flavorful marsala ever. The veal was huge, not like other place where the give you a tiny frozen patty and call it veal. The owner and husband were the nicest people. They came and chatted with us more then once and they are very nice. We will be back many times.Thank you for a wonderful experience and bringing great quality fresh food. We will spread the word. |

Great food and service. My wife and I eat here at least 3 times a week. All food is fresh, hot and made to order, worth waiting for. This is the place if you want real Italian food. After my dinner, I enjoy a chilled vodka from the full service bar, and smoke cigars with the owner on the outdoor seating patio. Did I mention the portions of food, unreal, they are huge and most excellent, quality all the way. If you want a family meal prepared and served Italian family way, then you must simply eat here. Now that's an offer you can't refuse. |

From the minute I walked into La Casa Nova's I was impressed. I must say it is decorated great. The food and the service match. The owners are one of a kind, they make you feel like they have known you for years. The service was great,and the food amazing. Coming from a big Italian family I know what real Italian food is... and this is it. Keep up the good work and they are sure to be a HUGE success. |

The service at La Casa Novas was very good. The owners were really nice and always made sure me and my boyfriend had everything we needed. Everybody there was very friendly and always had smiles on their faces. The food was excellent. The sausage parm was amazing and so were the fried raviolis. Having tasted real Italian food before, I would say the people at La casa novas really have it to a science. Overall, I will definitely be going back again. |

As a Northern girl, I'm picky about my food, especially when it comes to Italian cuisine. La Casa Nova's provides the most authentic Italian food that you can find this close to the equator. That's probably because the owners, transplants from New York, know how it's done. Not only is the food great, everything about the establishment is worth the trip. The owners are among the nicest people I've met since relocating to Flagler County, and pride themselves on creating the highest quality food possible. The business is a family affair, and they make you feel a part of it as soon as you step inside. The appearance and atmosphere do not disappoint either. It is one of the cleanest restaurants I've encountered, decorated top to bottom with our favorite "wise guys" and works of art alike. The private room in the back includes its' own bar and tasteful decor, perfect for any kind of function. The next time that you've got to have Italian, you've GOT to go to La Casa Nova's! |

Best food this side of Italy. I have tried every restaurant and pizza joint in palm coast and Flagler not to name names but this is by far the best. I attended dinner with my wife and children.The Casanova family was great Made us feel like we were home. The kids had pizza which I must say the pie was hughbiggest pie in town. It was thin crust and cooked to perfection. I had to have a slice. Best pizza I have had in twenty years. My wife had the Veal Marsala. Veal was so tender it melted in her mouth.I had the white clam sauce loaded with calms. The best I have ever had. I am so glad we found La Casa Nova's Restaurant. This Was the best dining experience I Have had since moving to Florida and I will be back many times. To everyone who has not tried them yet I recommend you do. Look for the Italian Chef Statue right across from Old King's Elementary School on Old Kings Rd.Thank you Barbara, Jimmy and boys.Will see you soon. 5 stars to you guys. |

Comfortable family atmosphere - great spot to have a few drinks that may carry on into dinner. Sausage and pepper dinner was not only very good, it was PLENTIFUL! My wife had the Pasta Carbonara; also great and a large portion. The service was quick and courteous. We've also, on prior occasions, had pizza, which is in my opinion, the best in Palm Coast. We'll be back .... the Popi Family. |

Have gone to this restaurant on several different occasions, and each and every time the food and service has been wonderful! I must say that the place is decorated very nicely, yet the owners are friendly, down to earth people who make you feel right at home like your part of the family! This is definitely my new favorite place, with great authentic Italian cuisine, and the best pizza in Palm Coast, how could it not be?
Will be back many times! |

After eating at La Casa Nova's for a late lunch with some friends on a Saturday afternoon, I knew they had to cater my next event. The meatball sub was large enough for 2 of us to share and it was incredible. I have also tasted the bruschetta and was impressed with its fresh robust flavor! Less than a week later I was asked to arrange food for an evening business meeting for a group of physicians. The owners did not hesitate to customize the menu to our needs, gave more than expected and delivered hot delicious food on time. Each physician at the meeting asked for a menu to take back to their office. The decor of the restaurant makes it a perfect place for date night or an evening out with your family. I will definitely be back. The owners are the kind of people that make you proud you live in a country where a family with a love of people and appreciate of quality food can open up a restaurant and invite you to their dinner table! |

The food was below average. We went there on a Saturday and there was only one other couple there and service was still very slow. The ambience is there but the servers/help are not dressed to match the atmosphere. Personnel was very friendly. If they find a way to considerable improve their food, we would consider going back, but if things stay the was they are, I do not see the business lasting very long. |

Closest authentic Italian food to NYC. Moved from Connecticut, dined in Greenwich, Darien, Stamford, and all over NYC. Lived here almost one year before I discovered this piece of heaven. I feast here at least twice a week, I'm hooked. Have had entrees of chicken, veal, shrimp, tilapia filets in lemon butter, and the mother of all Lasagnas is 10" wide, 4 layers deep of cheeses and meat. All entrees are enough for (2) to be shared or another meal to carry home. The PIZZA dough is made fresh from the finest ingredients and toppings. NO BIG BUBBLES in the dough, crispy crust to die for. My extra slices in the freezer beckon me at night to get up and indulge. Private parties are treated extra special. These folks are not going anywhere except up the Richter scale. They do have another establishment in NYC, but their sons are culinary trained and this is their legacy. Mom (Barb), Dad (Jim Sr.), Jimbo (1st son), Tom (2nd son) and Keith (3rd son) are La Familia. |

Tried this place twice....it was two times too many. I heard La Casa Nova's owners used to have a restaurant in NYC, if so, it must have been a Pizza place, because they sure do not have any idea of how to run a Good restaurant or how to cook great Italian food. I suggest the owner's have dinner at Benedetto's in Palm Coast... that's the real deal. Maybe they would learn what Excellent Italian Cooking is all about! This is a place you can skip. |

I found the staff to be excellent and the food was superb. I ate until I felt like I could explode. The prices were reasonable and the dining room was awesome. My wife received a free necklace and earrings, which were a delayed Mothers Day gift from the owner. Great people, great place. going back next week. |

My husband and I ate there last week and I have to say we were VERY disappointed. I ate the potato and egg hero ($7.95 I believe). It was barely a 6" sandwich and the bread was not cooked all the way. My husband had the chicken cutlet parm hero and his sandwich was maybe 4" ($7.25). We also had the calamari for 8.95... TERRIBLE!!! There was barley enough on the plate for one person and it was overcooked. The waitress never came back to give us re-fills. Bottom line too expensive and we left hungry and we paid $30.00. We will not go back or recommend to anyone. I actually felt bad for them so I paid the bill. Silly me. The waitress said they have been there for 11 weeks. I don't think it will be there for 11 more. |

We went here recently with some friends and this is our review. The food was fair at best, service a bit lacking. We ordered Bruschetta for an appetizer and it was just ok. The waitress did not give us dishes for the Bruschetta or the bread for our main course. Nor did she ask if we wanted a refill on our drinks. The main courses were fair at best. Doubt if we ever go back. |

We dined at La Casa Nova's with our party of 6 What a wonderful experience this was. First we sat at the bar and had a couple of drinks. We talked with the family which I must say they make you feel like you are part of the family. they are great. The food was excellent. My husband and I had the veal which was the best veal I ever had. Two of my friends had the shrimp fra diavlo and the penne carbonara which they said was out of this world. The other two had the pizza. They are still bragging about it till this day. Music and decor are wonderful. Made us feel like we were back home in Bay Ridge. Thank you guys for a wonderful dining experience. A++++++. to our new favorite restaurant. |

We visited there Thursday evening for a late supper. The crowd was very sparse (it was Holy Thursday.) In fact, we weren't sure the place was open until we entered. But the staff was very friendly and the food was excellent. We will return. |

First off, the wait staff is very unpleasant, the lady who served us complained to us about elderly customers who where handicapped, saying they asked for too much and weren't nice to her, then the order process was peculiar, we had our orders taken by 2-3 different people drinks and food, when it finally came about 40 minutes for a pizza, which should take 20 minutes tops ( they were slow only us and another table in the whole restaurant) it was average nothing to write home about. The first time I dined here I experienced the same complications with ordering and the unpleasant waitress, it was my mistake for trying it the second time. |

Very friendly owners, you feel like part of the family when you eat there. I was not impressed with the wait staff, not very nice actually bordering on 'snotty' but maybe she was having a bad night. We didn't get a lot of food but what we did order was amazing. The pasta had a fantastic texture. I look forward to trying their pizza after reading all of the positive reviews. I do think that when the restaurant makes a mistake or doesn't have the size you ordered that the customer shouldn't have to pay for the bigger size... Small mishap.. I will be going back for more. Great atmosphere! |

I went with my party of 8. I do agree with what someone stated earlier. They do have some "Growing Pains" to work out just as any new restaurant does. The wait was a little longer then we anticipated but well worth it.The pizza is the best I have ever had. When you have a full restaurant with about 200 hundred people in it and a line outside of the door you have to expect that. My new favorite restaurant. |

I am 57 years old and this was the most negative experience that I have ever had at a restaurant. The service and food were both horrible. It was punishment sitting there waiting for our food for 1-1/2 hours and when it finally arrived it was very poor. We actually went to McDonald's after we left the restaurant.

Excellent food and very friendly staff. They are having a few "growing pains" but as they work those out this will definitely be one of our "favorite places" to go for a genuinely good, New York Italian meal. |

I went to La Casa Nova's last Friday with my party of 8 and I must say the decor is amazing. The food is excellent and the staff are very friendly. I must also say that the pizza is probably the best I have had in a long time. Makes me feel like I am back home again. I will definitely be back. |

Our group of six went to Casa Nova's last Friday, January 4th. We got there at 6 PM and were eager to try a new pizza restaurant. After taking our drink order, then the pizza order, the server came back and told us that they had run out of pizza dough! We thought that was the wildest thing we ever heard... what poor planning for a Friday night! We ended up going to Terranova's where we actually GOT the pizza. However, we'll probably give them another chance - after we hear some positive reviews. |
