Diamond in the Rough
Pros:
- Great pizza and sandwiches (get the meatball!)
- Very fair prices
- if you’re indecisive like me, they let you order half and half pizzas to try out the menu
- traditional and eclectic pizzas. Medusa and good ole margarita are my favorite.
Family owned with personable staff
- The owner is always here, checking on customers, engaging, etc.
Love the bar seating for “Cheers” feeling or dining single but has plenty of booths/tables for family, friends or networking events.
Con’s:
I honestly don’t have one.
Their location I think hurts the business bc it’s not downtown but it’s MINUTES from downtown and perfect for West End. Great food, people and prices.

Neapolitan pizza is not supposed to be casserole. The thin crust does not support piling on toppings in layers like a deep dish - the toppings don't cook correctly, the crust doesn't cook correctly, you end up with soggy middles and pizza you have to eat with a fork. Our pizza had no structure at all, it flopped straight down 90 degrees and dumped all of the toppings if you tried to eat it like pizza. The Comet also was served with big handfuls of raw garlic - I love garlic, but it has to be cut small enough to cook, and these were big raw chunks. Nothing really got cooked correctly - the Basque was swimming in pepper water, the Comet ingredients were very undercooked, the Capricciosa might as well have been a salad.
This is unfortunate, because the ingredients themselves seemed good quality, the recipes were inventive. The dough seemed good from the chew on the crust, and the outer crust had a nice char on it, but it was soaked wherever toppings were. This doesn't seem like a "recipe" problem, it seems like a kitchen problem - they just need to have a lighter touch with ingredients and cut them to size to actually get cooked in the right amount of time.
Our server was delightful, the dining area had a clean, modern look to it, with an enjoyable "vibe". You go to a pizzeria for the pizza, though, and it's going to be a while before I give Casanova another try.

Another bad experience ordering at Casanova. Talked to the manger about my experiences and just gave me excuses with no solutions or caring to resolve the issue. I will not be returning to this place.

Ate at Casanova and experienced nothing but challenges. The waitress could not get my order correct and charged me for their mistake. I don’t recommend this place.
