Casanova Brothers Pizza

Best service, good food!

Staff is so kind and friendly, pizza is amazing. Definitely in the top 5 pizza best places in AZ.

As soon as I walked in, I had AMAZING service. Really have the feel like I’m in New York. I love the fact that they sell by the slice ALL DAY. Most places only have that during lunch time. Great food, great environment. I will definitely be coming back for more.

Ok. I’m from long island ny and I really missed my pizza. I hate all the places here that claim to be from ny and then have horrible food. This place is not like that AT ALL.
Finally!!! Garlic knots like back home and a real Sicilian pie!!! I can’t rave about this place enough. Do yourself a favor and eat here.

Complimentary garlic knots! I would just leave you with those three beautiful words, but I believe those are only for first timers. They really have something here with this little piece of New York. Excellent customer service. Excellent Italian food. Tony and his staff went above and beyond. We will be back!
Support local business.

Last Friday night we took the kids out to dinner. We drove around Gilbert trying to find a place and every single restaurant was packed with long wait times. We ended up in the plaza this place is located at hoping to eat at Serrano’s, but again they were super crowded. We saw this place with no wait time and decided to give it a try. When we walked it we were greeted by a really friendly gentleman. As we walked up to the counter he asked if we’ve ever eaten there and shook our hands as he introduced himself. He brought us over a basket of their garlic knots on the house and they were amazing! Super fresh and delicious. The sauce was just as great. We ordered a large pizza, buffalo wings and fries. The pizza was one of the best I’ve ever had. The dough was light and thin, like NY style. The sauce tasted fresh with a great flavor. And my husband and I absolutely loved their buffalo sauce. It was tangy with the perfect amount of spice. The nice gentleman checked on us a few more times and even bought us some fresh garlic knots to take home. On the house of course! This is our new favorite pizza joint. Who does that!!! We felt so welcomed there and our kids loved it too! You will not be disappointed.

Tony and Louis Were fantastic, First time in and they greeted us and gave us the greatest service ever. Our kids had a great time and the food was amazing.
Highly recommend, oh and the food. True New York style and and absolutely great pizza.

Best Italian place ever! You walk in and you become family to them. These guys run amazing place. Best food I’ve had in a while, and Will defiantly be coming back. You walk in and they ask or know your name. They talk to you and treat you like family. I had their Alfredo and it was some of the best I’ve ever had. And their garlic knots and dessert rolls are to die for!

What a great choice we made to come here. We made our decision based on the reviews and were glad we did.
We were promptly greeted on arrival by Tony, who in turn introduced us by name to the entire staff. Nice touch!
As we were seated, Tony arrived with the delicious garlic knots. We wolfed those down and he delivered a second order, both on the house. Another nice touch!
We ordered the special version of the pizza (round)and it was delicious.
Service was prompt and friendly the entire visit.
Then Tony sent over some delicious cannoli for desert. (Also, on the house).
This place was far beyond my expectations.
We plan to return for a second visit tonight with 4 friends and introduce them to this awesome find!
Thank you to Tony and Staff! You guys are awesome.

Friendly service greatest NY style pizza in the area. They know you by name and treat you like family. Definitely the closest feel to the east coast out here in az. I will forever be coming here.

I need to come here more often! This place is awesome!
The owner is super friendly and remembers you by name. The food is reasonably priced and very tasty. We always get the garlic knots, which are little clouds of deliciousness served with marinara sauce for dipping.
On our most recent visit, I got the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and my husband got the Philly cheesesteak. Both dishes were delicious, and really hit the spot when I was craving Italian food. We finished the meal with the zeppolis for dessert. They were fluffy and sweet. Perfect!

Very good service. It was our first time there so they gave us 6 free garlic knots which were hot and delicious. The staff was very nice and I loved all the picture décor on the walls. With the help of Unilocal we found this pizza spot and will be returning in the future.

We visited this place yesterday with some out of town family. I gotta say that their customer service was top notch. Tony greeted all of us and asked for our names. Made you feel very comfortable and almost like family. Since it was our first time here they gave us some garlic knots to try. We tried 3 different types of pizza and they were all delicious. Can’t wait to go back and try their subs.
Highly recommended this place!!!

I can’t say that I’ve ever been to Chi-​town, but I can say that I’vehad a taste of it. I ordered the calzone and it wasn’t what i expected, because they have their original spin on an old classic. This monstrous mound of flavor was ready to burst so I sliced it open to reveal the jackpot. Steaming Mozzarella erupted as ricotta flowed onto my plate. This prized piece of «Paisan» art was turned into
abstract art after my first bite. I was so immersed in my experience that I forgot about my manners and the fact that I was on a lunch date! In a word; «fuhgedaboudit»!!

Service: Since it was our first time, we requested a menu to have a look and they give us 6 garlic knots with sauce to sample. These were very delicious and totally got us revved up for what to order for our meal. When ordering, the employee that took our order gave a shout out that it was our first time there and the entire staff greeted us with a warm welcome. Throughout our meal, the staff was very attentive to our needs and we had a very good meal.
Environment: The music and feel of the place is very nice. It’s very family-​friendly, and although we didn’t have our kids with us at this time, my wife and I felt it had that nice vibe. The place was very clean and it was a very relaxing environment to be in for our date night.
Food: We ordered fried zucchini, chicken alfredo and a neapolitan style pepperoni pizza. The ranch accompanying the zucchini was very good, with the right creamy texture. The zucchini itself had a deliciously-​seasoned batter and it was a very good appetizer. Our alfredo came with a salad and they went ahead and split the portion into two so that my wife and I could easily share. The caesar dressing was very good and I definitely recommend that salad.
My favorite part was definitely the Alfredo dish. It was seriously so dang good; best Alfredo I have ever had. They make their own sauce and I could not stop eating it! I highly recommend that dish to anyone curious on what to order.
The pizza was also very good, with the crust at that right «crispy shell but soft interior» texture. The sauce and toppings, particularly the cheese were all great-​tasting and complemented each other well.
All in all, I am eager to try everything else here at this place. It is now my favorite Italian restaurant and I will hype it up to all of my friends.

Im not an expert on traditional Italian, but the food was great at this place. The owners Mike and Toni were very welcoming on my first visit, very New York Italian like atmosphere, it doesn’t get any better. It’s a pretty nice experience, and it really makes the food taste even better when the service is top notch! Definitely will be visiting again soon!

OMG! I drive an hour to get this pizza. I’d drive 2 hours if I had to.
Most delicious pizza outside of New York. Most authentic New York style pizza I’ve had outside of New York. A must for any pizza lover.
** Friday and Saturday dinner time will be a considerable wait, but we’ll worth it.

Let me try and describe as so many other people have reviewed the experience as a first time customer to this restaurant. Once we get in the door we get greeted with a smile and since we didn’t know what we wanted the cashier (forget her name) asked us our names and shook our hands as she introduced. She helped us with our first pizza, and cannoli’s, and on the house garlic knots for being first timers.
The garlic knots were tiny portions of garlic bread which was a nice appetizer and the pizza was absolutely divine. Best pizza I have had in a long while, authentic and the meats used were so flavorful. Not to mention I actually enjoyed eating the crust as it was good by itself. This is someplace I will be taking others to and I can’t wait to try the other pizzas. The cannoli’s were also very good and although I doubt anything will measure up to my wifes grandma’s cannoli’s, these were pretty darn close!
I am excited to support and contribute a review to such a well run establishment that has so much character throughout! If in the Phoenix area, treat yourself and stop by.

Now Bo Bites told the pizza man
You have to let that sauce pop!
The NY pizza comes desert’s way
Has been shaking to the top
The bros they drove they’re Cadillac
They went a cruisnin down Gilbert
The Unilocalers was a chilling
On the website they review
The people really like it
CasaNova!

You gotta love Tony!
Tony is one of the owners of this mom/​pop pizza joint. His enthusiasm and customer relations is by far one of the best in town! He makes you feel at home and enjoys chatting it up making sure your experience at Casanova Bros. Pizza special.
We started out dining experience off with some Mozzarella sticks and fried zucchini; while Tony offered us some free garlic knots for first timers! First thing I notice was the marinara was pretty solid; nice subtle tomatoey sweetness. It also came along with our mozzarella sticks, which was breaded with a light coat of breadcrumbs and oozing with soft mozzarella cheese. Our fried zucchinis were perfect to the crunch and came with a ranch sauce. For our pizza I went for the NY Special, which came with ham, pepperoni, sausage, and meatballs. Overall a darn good pizza! The crust had a solid crunch base while the dough was kept soft to the bite.
In the end, Casanova Bros. Pizza is my new favorite pizza spot on the East side of town. The place was bustling with patrons and for good reason. The pizza here is phenomenal! — Enjoy!

In order of appearance:
Tony meet us at the door, checked for new people (recognizing the few who had been there before) and gave the 10 of us a warm welcome.
Nicole took our first order of appetizers. No table service here you order, take a number, and they bring your food to the table fresh from the oven. When I came back later to order pizza Nicole greeted me by name and we had a super nice two minute conversation.
Garlic knots followed us to the table like magic. The dough here is great, so these dangerous because they are hard not to fill up on.
Fried zucchini and mozzarella sticks. We were hungry so these did not last long. They were both pretty good.
Hot wings and French fries. If not a coinsure I am certainly a consumer of chicken wings. The wings were better than average, not great. I liked them and will order them again. Again the fries were good, but not great.
All in all for the price and how fast they get to the table the appetizers and super friendly staff would get four stars. The real «star» of Casanova is the pizza.
Cheese pizza and the NY special pizza. First rate NY style pie. Thin crispy crust, quality toppings and old school sauce.
Definitely on my list of favorite pizza joints!
