I was so excited when my husband booked Valentine's Day reservations at Casa Nuova. We had talked about going there but had never been. We were planning on going out to a different restaurant but he surprised me with reservations at Casa Nuova. We are on an extreme budget and he looked at their menu and decided that it would be less thann going out to the restaurant we had planned. When we arrived, we discovered that they had a specific menu and the menu price for the meal was $50. Since it was Valentine's Day you would assume that it was for a couple....SURPRISE!! No, the quantities seemed smaller than what would be normal (3 stuffed mushrooms for the appetizer and a very small portion of pasta, regular sized side salad). When we received the check we discovered that it was PER PERSON! The menu did not disclose this fact and if, in fact it did, we would have had the opportunity to bow out gracefully. As it ended up we paid at least double to what we would have paid elsewhere. At the normal menu prices this restaurant it would have been ok but they took advantage of the fact that it was a ""holiday"" and charged and exorbitant amount. We will never go back simply due to the fact that we felt the pricing should have been disclosed explicitly beforehand. My husband was devastated and felt entirely taken advantage of.....I hope this helps someone else to check more closely before they order. Obviously the owners either don't know how to disclose or cannot be trusted.
