“We had our daughter 3rd birthday there with about 20 total people.*There was lots of space available for a party*It was so clean and tidy!*Shorty was incredibly accommodating and helpful! Let us use the freezer for ice cream and let us in early to set up for the party.*Answered all questions we had and Shorty and her mom were so friendly and personable.*The staff was very polite and helpful.*Pizza was delicious! Every adult/parent commented on how good the pizza was. The pepperoni was a big hit with the kids.*The party space is right next to the arcade area. Cornhole, arcade games, table shuffleboard, and large connect four game are available. This area was even better than we anticipated and was a huge hit with both kids and adults. There is a machine to get quarters. The candy machine was the biggest hit because even our littlest one at 3 would win a prize every time.*Everyone left with a full tummy and happy kids that were ready to take a nap!*We would absolutely have a birthday party for any of our family members here, regardless of age. We will also be coming back for any regular pizza nights in the future.*Amazing food for a great price with a wonderful staff in a very clean establishment!!!Kid-friendliness: Great party space with an arcade and coin machine“

“Calling all pasta lovers! This is a place for you when you are in town!! Did you know? They imported the flour to make paste directly from Italy! Save on airplane ticket. From the short menu, you know that they are specialized and all about PASTA! You can personalize and order your own pasta with a variety of sauces! The rigatoni bolognese is out of this world and taste like good old home cooking! Plentiful of rich ingredients and delish! The waitress was very friendly and great customer service! She even show you pictures from today's specials on her tablet. Great idea on visuals! The restaurant decor is average and flexible to accommodate large groups. Tucked in a small strip mall, parking wasnt too bad although we had a late dinner reservation. Highly recommend for all pasta lovers at Reno, NV and will definitely come back next time!“

“Hands down the BEST pizza in Reno. The second I took my 1st bite of the pizza, it instantly reminded me of the pizza in Italy. The crust and ingredients are authentic Italian down to the San Marzano tomatoes. The salads are a great portion. The restaurant is small but the ambiance is great with great music. They have an extensive wine list as well. Service was always friendly. Side note - for those that are truly celiac, they do have a shared oven so they can have cross contamination. They do have a Gluten Free Homemade Gnocchi that is celiac friendly, just have to be careful with the pizzas. This is a new Reno staple!“

“Last night my girlfriends son was in town and we went to dinner at Casale's. My intention was to propose to my girlfriend while her son was in town. I proposed as just after we received our desert. She was extremely surprised. The Waiter made sure that our celebratory champagne and desert was taken care of as a way for the restaurant to congratulate us. The food is amazing, the staff is incredible and the ambience is out of this world. Thank you for making an amazing, special night, even more incredible.Parking: The parking lot next top the restaurant is small and people tend to park there in weird ways, making it smaller. There is a lot directly across the road to park in that is their overflow lot.“

“If you haven't tried this place on your trip to Reno,NV. Your missing out. This was our 2nd time here. The first time we were just walking around and saw a sign that said they had the best Mushroom Raviolis in the nation. Well of course we put it to the test and Wow! They were right! (That was about 2 years ago). Fast forward to today.....we decided to make a last min trip to reno on the last leg of my vacation road trip...so we tried it again. This time we took pictures. Our server Emily was absolutely amazing! Great service great smile and attitude. We were a little bit in a hurry and she did fantastic.......the food again. AMAZING! this time I made sure to get pics! Of course I got the mushroom ravioli and my husband got the veal osobuco. I'll let the pics tell the Rest. OH yeah try their Italian sodas.....“

I had a glass of cab, the pour was really nice size and price on point. I upgraded to the ceaser salad, and it was quite tasty. I also ordered the chicken picatta. The portion was huge, but the sauce was a cream sauce and lacking a little bit. Overall, it was a great experience, and I definitely would go back.“

“We ended up coming here for dinner last night after finding out it would be close to a 2 hour wait at Oceana. We love Italian food so it wasn't hard to adjust on what we wanted for dinner. We came up and the hostess did inform us they were booked, however, the bar seating was open. We gladly accepted bar seating.Our servers/bartenders (So sorry we forgot your names! One is a trainee though) were so welcoming and friendly! They provided good recommendations on drinks and food. It been a while since we came across such outstanding service! Honestly the best service we received from our trip to Reno this weekend.Now about the food: they are generous with their portions! My other half ordered the trio (not pictured) and I ordered the Bolognese. We did an order of the salad to share. We barely made a dent in our food before waving the white flag. Both dinners were packed up to go and currently waiting for us to devour for dinner.I highly recommend everyone to try this place out at least once - whether it's for a date night or to grab a bite to eat. The staff alone makes it worthwhile.“

“Summary: wonderful food and service. Nice romantic ambiance for dates and seems flexible for large groups...did not know they had a cute and spacious outdoor area. Just call in advance to make sure they are not booked for a private party. We ordered the Pinot Grigio - delicious. We shared the pickled veggies, salad, beef ragu with fresh pasta, moist chicken with mac and cheese. Mac and cheese awas a bit dry but chicken was made to perfection. I still recommend the entrees. In all, everything was nicely seasoned and I did not feel thirsty and swollen the next day from the salt. Yay. I get worried with creamy and saucey stuff. Haha. Just make sure to give a little bit of time to find parking. Nice dinner and will be back to try the specials with our kids when they are back from break. I can see this place being a regular dinner place.“

Not quite our style and price point is above our perceived value as we are specifically food focused not as much atmosphere.Multi-course and wine people would probably enjoy it. Worth trying if you are in the area as it may be a spot for you.“
