All I can say is thank God I didn't have to pay for this meal! We were looking forward to coming back for a delicious meal, this was far from it. The shrimp cocktail was covered in mayonnaise...totally gross. The bread was stale. The salads had no dressing.on them. The chicken parm was microwaved with bottled sauce. My 6oz filet had so much tenderizer it was a salt luck and the broccoli rap was raw, mind you it was 79.00. Maybe the so called chef should be cooking instead of boasting around the dining room. We will never eat there again. So sad

What a breaded joke. 75 for a deconstructed aquarium flavored lobster meatloaf. Are you kidding me. More bread crumbs than lobster. More bread crumbs than anything...

The food is not up to the standards a fine Italian restaurant should be. The shrimp cocktail sauce was horrible along with the Caesar salad, the fettuccini alfredo ,etc. The restaurant should be called La Caccata

Food was horrible. I got the seafood linguine. It was served with spaghetti noodles. The caprese was served with cut up cherry tomatoes.

Food was horrible. Was told the chef uses fresh ingredients but I could tell it was not fresh.
The seafood linguine was bad. The mussels, clam etc had a strong fishy smell to it.
The plate was hot so that means it was microwaved or baked in an oven.
The fried calamari tasted plain and no flavor.
The spaghetti sauce was from a can.
For the price I paid 95$ it was the worst Italian food. The chef should be disappointed.
If 0 star was an option it would be a 0 for me.

My mother and I went for dinner one evening. I had fettuccine, Mom had lasagna...the foor was delish and the waitress was good but...I gave my CC for payment, after about 15 min the waitress came to pay the bill, we waited for about 20 min before I had to ask for my CC back...they took forever to find it, told me the manager put it somewhere...my CC has now been into how many hands??? I had to cancel the CC!!! What a huge inconvenience while on vacation. PAY IN CASH!! I will never return even for the good food.
There was also a noisy bunch of men? Sitting behind us...they overtook our conversation with loud noises and laughter. Drunk

We went to Cascata in Niagara Falls, NY to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary. I love pasta, so we chose this Italian restaurant hoping for a great experience — but unfortunately, it was disappointing.
My spaghetti was undercooked and still raw in the middle. The waitress told us the kitchen had closed and just removed the dish from the bill. My daughter’s homemade fettuccine was overcooked and mushy, and when we mentioned it, we were told “it’s supposed to be like that,” which it isn’t.
Sadly, the food didn’t meet our expectations. I should have taken the negative reviews more seriously.

We were looking forward to this place as it was our first visit to Sceneca. The cesar dressing did not taste like cesar. It was more like a vinagrette and was served with wilted lettuce. For $14 I'd expect the freshest produce. The spaghetti and meatballs was overly large which made it feel cheap. The meatball had an odd flavor, couldnt quite pinppoint it. The porcini ravioli was ok. The dessert with chantilly cream had so much cream we couldnt take more than a few bites. Everything was pricey but the food somehow lacked sophisticarion. Sorry, chef. I know you take pride in your work because we heard you talking to a table next to us. But the dishes need work.

Food was so bad but service was good. Everything was so bland. Everything just tasted like bland melted cheese. It was very pricey too.
Very uppity feeling restaurant . I went with my family and we felt under dressed but were treated top notch non the less . I had the chicken parm , my kids had chicken alfredo and wife had lasagna . Food tasted good and wine selection was good . Price was probably the best part .

Came to leave a review because I don’t feel as if the current rating accurately reflects the experience I had. Everything was amazing from the staff to the food. The manager & chef were talking to all of the tables and helping their other staff. I would definitely recommend a visit here.

Food mediocre at best, therefore overpriced. Servers lacked class.

This restaurant is amazing! Authentic Italian food with a chef from Italy! Bread to start the meal with a huge wine selection. Shared the house salad which was fresh and perfect to share. Chicken parmesan and ravioli (pasta made in house) with sage, parmesan butter were both excellent. We also had the ricotta cheesecake and tiramisu, which are both also made in house. Waitress was attentive and kind. Chef came out to visit as well as the manager. Only negative comment is how close together the tables are, but the food makes up for it! Definitely going back to try the fettuccine alfredo, made the Italian way with no cream! Highly recommend!

The food was disgusting. The filet smelled and tasted rotten. When we arrived it took 10 minutes for someone to come over and take our drink order. Not only did she forget my husband’s drink, but she gave me a Diet. It took so long for her to come the first time that my husband went to the lobby bar to get me a regular Pepsi faster. We didn’t get bread for another 10 minutes and never got oil with it. When our dinners arrived, there was immediate concern based on the look of it. The waitress blamed the chef’s Italian cooking style — which allegedly is boiling steak instead of pan searing or any other normal method. This was not a marinated steak. It was either spoiled or the marinade the steak was boiled in was spoiled. They took the steak off the bill, but the way we were told was sort of condescending: “I paid for it”, the manager said. Seemed odd. Overall awful experience. Don’t waste your time or money.
