" I love everything about Cannova's! The staff is friendly and the ambiance is refined but not overly formal. I've had multiple meals here and they’ve all been excellent. The tiramisu for dessert tasted like it was made straight from an Italian grandmother’s recipe. Can't recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eating at Cannova's is consistently a treat. The menu offers a wide variety of choices that all boast authentic flavors. The pasta dishes are fresh and homemade, and the wait staff is always there to assist. The only drawback was a lengthy wait for a table, but the meal was well worth it. My family and I will definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night, I had dinner at Cannova's, and it didn’t live up to expectations. While the atmosphere was inviting, the food was lukewarm and not fresh. My dish had too much sauce which overpowered the rest of the flavors. It might have been a bad day for them. I’ll give it one more try. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a loyal patron of Cannova's for over a decade, and it never disappoints! The crab cakes are phenomenal, and the seafood Alfredo remains my favorite dish. The owners treat you like family and the ambiance is perfect for any occasion. Highly recommend for date night or family gatherings. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the Cannova’s location is charming and has a great Italian vibe, the food did not live up to the expectations set by previous reviews. I had the baked ziti, which was delivered lukewarm and was too greasy. The service was friendly but slow. I may give it another chance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Special occasion or just a casual dining experience—Cannova's delivers on both fronts. The staff was welcoming, and the atmosphere set a relaxed mood. I tried the risotto, and it was creamy and savory without being overwhelming. I would recommend making a reservation during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cannova's lived up to my expectations for an authentic Italian meal. The lasagna was hearty, with layers of rich meat and cheese. I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion sizes. The service was quick and friendly, and I really appreciated the live music. I will definitely be returning for more! " (*Curated Review*)
