I was in Kansas City last week and looked up Italian restaurants nearby. Cascone’s had a 4.6-star rating with more than 3,400 reviews, so I expected a great experience. Unfortunately, my group and I left very disappointed. The service was poor. Our server was not friendly, barely interacted with us, and set the plates down abruptly as if she did not want to be there. There were four of us in the party. Three of us ordered the Caesar salad to start, and it was very underwhelming. It reminded me of something you might find at a buffet salad bar. The bread was also disappointing. It was average at best, and for the first time I can remember at an Italian restaurant, no one in our group finished it or asked for more. That alone says a lot. For the entrées, my mother-in-law ordered the stuffed mushroom caps, which came in a thick cream sauce that was not appetizing. My friend ordered the lasagna, which was just okay and probably the best dish at the table, though not memorable. My husband and I both ordered the Chicken Limonata Elaina, and we agreed it was not good. I have had better dishes at Olive Garden and other chain restaurants. Overall, we left disappointed with the entire experience. I am genuinely surprised by the high ratings. Either we caught the restaurant on a very off night, or Kansas City does not have many strong Italian options.

It’s our favorite and has been forever! Everything is delicious! Food to look forward to and the large portions make leftovers for an amazing lunch the next day! ❤️❤️❤️

First time visiting this restaurant. Friendly staff and delicious food. With wanting to try a little of the favorites, my wife and I both ordered the Italian Flag (lasagna, chicken parmigiana and fettuccine alfredo) and each item was great. Portion size was enough to bring home some for lunch the next day. Our waiter was Randall and he was helpful with our selections and he was attentive to our needs. We will definitely be going here again.

We've been fortunate enough to get Tyler as our server more than once. His recommendations are on point and he seems so comfortable to be around. Excellent food, excellent service. Don't take a chance with another place if you want something amazing. Never a bad experience at Cascone's.

This place always serves it up hot and delicious. The best Italian in KC easily! Our service was fantastic (thanks Javon!) even on a busy homecoming weekend Saturday night. The Chicken Limonata Elaina and red sangria were perfect, calamari was breaded beautifully and served with fresh lemon and sugo. Exceptional experience as always!
Mozzarella bread is SO GOOD! I ordered it for myself and my whole table of 10 grabbed a piece, so so good. I recommend :)

This is my family's favorite restaurant to go to! I am not really a fan of Italian food, but I can get behind this! I love it! I normally get the Chicken Limonata with fettuccine alfredo, but this last time I got the veal limonata instead and MY GOODNESS!!!!! It was so dang tasty! Great service, great food and great ambiance. Definitely would recommend! It's a KC classic! :)
