I'm giving it 5 stars for the experience - that of a 1950s style eatery complete with live music and a very attentive and friendly staff.\n\nWe made reservations on a Wednesday night, arrived early and were still able to get seated relatively easily around 7pm. It get more crowded as the night progresses.\n\nCasa Di Amore has a number of classic Italian dishes. We got the Mini Oso Bucco ($14), Calamari ($14), Gypsy Pasta ($26), Chicken Marsala ($27) and the Gnocchi Alla Prosciutto ($23). All portions were quite generous, and in fact I could have eaten the Mini Oso Bucco as a main. We had freshly baked house bread that came with garlic butter plus oil and vinegar. \n\nThe Oso Bucco was very tender and the risotto it came on was excellent. I definitely would recommend this dish! I liked the Calamari but it was borderline too crunchy. Probably the \"worst\" dish was the Gypsy pasta. If you're used to Thai food, it's not that spicy - has a nice kick, but I didn't find it that special and probably wouldn't order that again. Overall, a fun place to take friends from out of town."^^ . . "2017-07-13T00:00:00"^^ .
