Exactly how I like my sandwiches served This cute authentic café/store in Halcyon is serving some seriously flavorful paninis that make the perfect lunch spot. Pair them with one of their flavored sodas, grab a seat outdoors, and you've got yourself the sweetest little lunch date Already planning my next visit for the pastas and desserts because they looked too good to skip. If you haven't tried this hidden gem at Halcyon yet... you're definitely missing out

I saw someone reviewing this restaurant online and based on how much they raved about it, I had to…read moretry it being so close by. Ordered the Amore Mio which was what was recommended and although the menu items are not cheap, it was absolutely delicious!!! The panini is so big, we ended up splitting it. We opted for the garlic olio since my bf doesn't care for tortufolio and sun dried tomatoes as opposed to regular tomatoes. Pesto, burrata, all the meats, oh my yum!! The flavors are amazing. The only complaint from my bfs side was the prosciutto was stringier than he'd want, but he didn't spare a single bite so that says it all to me. I do like that the paninis are served with chips instead of fries or anything. Don't get me wrong, I love fries, but definitely prefer chips with a panini. Salivating just thinking about going back to try more of the menu!

Casa Nuova delivered an absolutely exceptional catering experience for my daughter's wedding in…read moreMay 2026. We've been dining at the restaurant for years, and the food has never once disappointed. Their catering service somehow exceeded even our highest expectations. Maria is an outstanding host, and her entire team was amazing from start to finish. They were prompt, organized, and consistently on top of communication and follow‑up. Every detail was handled with care, and the food was every bit as delicious as what we've enjoyed in the restaurant over the years. Our guests raved about the meal, and one table even scheduled a "reunion" meal with us at Casa Nuova later this year. The professionalism of the staff made the day feel effortless. Casa Nuova is truly a gem, and their catering service is second to none. We were able to make last minute changes with ease as well, to accommodate a dietary restriction. We used Casa for the meal, bartending, and hand passed appetizers. Do yourself a favor and use Casa Nuova for your next event. You will not be disappointed!

Everyone we've had since has been just as good. They're friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and somehow able to memorize a huge list of specials. They really make us feel like part of the family. The Escargots Casa Nuova is our favorite appetizer. The garlic butter is delicious and perfect for dipping the bread in. I had never had anything like the Cannelloni Florentina before, but it was very tasty. It's a smaller dish, but it packs a punch! The Tortellini in Champagne Sauce was so good that I cleaned the plate. I also really like the decor. It has an Italian home feel, with paintings, flowers, wine, and knickknacks everywhere (and apparently a lot of local history). Casa Nuova is a little further of a drive for us, but it's one of the best Italian places I've found in the area. I'm looking forward to bringing more family here.

The salads were dinner size and fresh. Everything seemed fresh and tasted so good. The locals in our party actually commented that they wanted to come back.

Lots of options for those who love the fishery part of the concept and just as many choices for those that don't. We ordered the bruschetta and enjoyed their take that used fig jam, prosciutto and balsamic glaze instead of the more traditional tomato base. They have house made focaccia that when brought to the table we instantly regretted having ordered the bruschetta, thinking we overdid the bread thing. But we both quickly changed our minds and consumed both with little guilt... I would go back just for the focaccia alone and wish they sold it by the loaf! Pastas are made onsite but they get the gluten free version from a different supplier to avoid risk of cross contamination. Hubby had the wild boar pasta. I had the pork chop. My chop was perfectly grilled and moist. I asked for the marsala sauce on the side since I don't like mushrooms themselves, but enjoy the flavor they can add. The weakest link was the mashed potatoes, served in two round scoops reminiscent of school cafeteria lines. Other than the shape, there was nothing memorable nor particularly flavorful about them. Next time I would try a different side and keep the chop. We didn't save room for dessert this time but will definitely get some next time. And there will definitely be a next time. Moderate price point, not an everyday spot, but shouldn't be saved just for special occasions either.

Well, after stopping by Coletta's for happy hour, we wanted to check out Rena's which was…read morerecommended by a co-worker. The vibe here was buzzing on a Friday evening which seemed promising. We opted to sit at the bar which I do NOT recommend if you plan on eating. It is extremely tight seating and the bartenders aren't not trained to serve food or have menu knowledge. The lack of the kitchen staff culinary skills became evident when looking at the menu with many seafood/pasta items being served with one sauce- a goopy cornstarch'ish lemon butter sauce. We wanted to try the scampi appetizer with their house made pasta - sans dairy which meant no lemon butter sauce. That seemed to throw a wrench and there was much back and forth between the BT to the kitchen explaining what that meant aka do not cook the food with butter use olive oil- not so complicated, right? 30 minutes later - despite the kitchen staff not being busy- reminder, we are sitting at the bar and watch the cooks looking at their cellphones instead of working... The small portion of a couple shrimp and scallops arrive. They were panned seared- highly seasoned but tasty. Pasta arrived dry ? Huh? Who serves dry pasta- ugh? I asked for olive oil again which never appeared despite a manager hearing the request. So, moving along, we decided to try the calamari. It came out much faster but the portion was enough for 8-10 people. BT- oh, I forgot to tell you it is such a large portion... Maybe offer a half portion? It was okay- nothing amazing except the quantity. So disappointed- we had high hopes that the vibe matched the food quality.
