"we were looking for a restaurant that ran lisa dahl and we tried to come in mariposa and no luck. this was the next option and we were not released! the inner was decorated old world. we loved one of the dining rooms that had the starry sky. we ask to be in this room next to the visit in sedona. our waitress was amazing. cocktails- we started with a house made limoncello spray. that was refreshing and exactly what we wanted on a hot day. appetizer- artichoke beignets: really delicious. Extra savory and tasted not like artichoke (ten enjoyed them and did not know what was in us we had ordered another to share with our group! curry cauliflower (or sweet) suppe. it was the suppe of the day and it was amazing. it had so full taste and was very exotic. we would have eaten it again and again. entrees- 2 of us ordered the special fruittta del mare fruits of the sea and it was a wonderful pasta dish with tons of seafood. yummy! tortellini deal bosco- we will order everything with truffles! rich, creamy and everything they want in a comfort pasta dish. would eat again! lisa’s luscious lasagna- it was luscious! the soße had a beautiful acidic tomaten and they could say it was homemade and a secret recipe. it was made with love and you could taste it! the cheese was creamy and a beautiful fresh balance. one in our group ordered the angelica. that was a bright pasta with large garnels. of course we saved space for the tiramisu! it was incredible and had a thick layer of kakao espresso powder. be careful and make sure they look down on the top. the puder. hahah. we had a few laughs. the cream of tiramisu coated our mouth and thought us more. we shared this with 5 people and we all bite a few. overall, if we always keep in sedona at one of lisa’s restaurant. it is always worth the money, because the quality is there! many thanks again lisa and her personal for such a great meal! we're coming back!"

"Recently, my wife and I stopped at Casa Nostra in Westlake Village during our drive, enticed by its convenient location and stellar ratings. While I can only comment on the salad and the chicken parmigiana we shared, the experience left much to be desired. Opting for a lighter meal, we split a salad featuring mixed greens, which pleasantly met our expectations. However, the same cannot be said for the chicken parmigiana, which regrettably stands out as one of the least satisfying renditions I've encountered. The chicken lacked the freshness one would expect and had a disappointingly rubbery texture. Furthermore, the dish seemed to overcompensate with an excess of cheese, perhaps attempting to mask the subpar taste of the protein. The scarcity of sauce only compounded the lackluster impression. Even the seemingly fail-proof roasted potatoes, a personal favorite, proved to be a letdown. Drenched in oil, each bite was dominated by the overpowering taste of oil, detracting from the potential enjoyment of the side dish. Despite the redeeming quality of the mixed greens salad, the overall experience at Casa Nostra fell short of our expectations. The lackluster performance of a staple Italian dish, the chicken parmigiana, leaves me hesitant to recommend this establishment or consider a return visit. It's unfortunate that a premier dish did not live up to the standards one would anticipate from an Italian restaurant."
