PeteM01 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 We used our Groupon vouchers here last night and had a really good meal. The starter menu at the moment has reverted to one they used to have some time ago, with nice mussels and a robust bruschetta with roast peppers and goats cheese the highlights. The only minor disappointment were the fishcakes from the specials, which were pre-coated in a very hot chili sauce - it would have been nice to choose how much sauce to put on. Mains were OK, although expecting one person to eat the risotto al pollo was totally unrealistic! This was also a mildly spicy dish but nothing compared to the sausage pasta. Pizzas and calzone were big and tasty, with nice thin crusts. Tiramisu was excellent as usual, ice-cream was a nice italian variety (on a previous visit it was mass-produced UK rubbish) and the panacotta was also good. We usually BYO here but with the Groupon offer we bought a couple of bottles from the list - Refosco dal peduncolo was a new grape variety for me and made an excellent red. They had forgotten about the Groupon discount when the bill came but subtracted it without demur. With friendly and efficient service (apart from the bill), it was a very pleasant experience and nice to see the restaurant thriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
websters gue Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Another Casanova fan here, I'm lucky I live about halfway between Casanova and Vito's, two good Italian restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neddort Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 We went a few weeks ago- couldn't fault it. Really lovely food, a good choice, and as said before- best tiramasu in Sheffield... or maybe even Yorkshire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteM01 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I've been informed it is no longer BYO on any night. I dare say that they will bring it back in January when things are a bit quieter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 We went last night and the food was great. One of my companions said the tiramisu was the best she'd ever tasted, so much so that she ordered a second one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
