Seem like this restaurant is under new menagement. The new owner is on this industry for so long, and they know how to treat their costumers in best way. Restaurant is nice and very clean. Food is really good and risible price. Personally, I highly would recommend to everyone. Enjoy your meal there

Amazing dining experience. New owners are exceptional and super friendly. Stopped in for a beer and tried the cold antipasto. Was absolutely delicious. Planning future parties here as they have private rooms. Been updated and renovated since new ownership. Highly recommend to friends and family.

Quiet birthday lunch for 2 midweek. Like having your own private chef. Charcuterie board offered with hit bread to start. An ample pear/endive served 2 easily. Shrimp scampi with creamy risotto and filet of sole perfectly cooked. Alas, too full for dessert. Next time!

Sunday night went to Casa Rina for their prix fixe dinner, Looks like they did some work on the inside, looked really nice since the last time we went. Their menus are now ipads lol, it was strange at first but very easy to see.Service was excellent. We each got appetizers, my calamari was a large plate for an appetizer, it had rings and the tentacles I love them tentacles lol. My wife got the Grilled Sausage, broccoli rabe, crispy potatoes, tomato broth, another hit. Main course I had chicken martini on top of fettuccine, another large plate with deliciousness, she had the skirt steak. We both had leftovers. Saved room for dessert, Tiramisu. Waiter was great, food was great, I am not going to wait so long to come back.

Thank you, Omar and Laura for a wonderful experience. Of course, also our complements to the chef and entire kitchen staff. My family and my wife's family have frequented this restaurant since the 1950's, when it was named Parise's Steak House. About 10 years ago, it seemed to lose its luster for our family. Last night, my wife went back, just to reminisce. What a wonderful surprise to see that it has been revived in the most fabulous way. We didn't recognize the interior. It was bright and welcoming. As inviting as the room is, and as elite as the service is, the star of the show was the amazing flavors of all of our choices. From the antepast to the breads, main courses and deserts and let's not forget the house wine, everything was spot on. We are already calling family members and friends to lock down dates for the summer. We are excited to reintroduce this gem to the next generation.
