Cansano Italian Steakhouse

Wow - so happy to try this gem of a restaurant. We were greeted with kindness. Parking is easy with the garage just behind the restaurant. A party of 12...Tom masterfully took care of our every want!The Food: everyone raved about their dish - there was something for everyone. Tom made sure to have enough bread for this crowd - the assortment was delicious. The salmon was perfect. The Moscato was devine. The Pizza was excellent.The Service: Tom catered to our every want. He was magnificent. We took our time and savored our dishes. We were never rushed. We were pleasantly surprised to not have an automatic tip calculated for our group which left us to leave a generous thank you and greater amount for the wonderful service. Thank you for helping us make memories to last a lifetime.The Ambiance: an intimate dining experience. Not too big not too small, it was Goldilocks 'just right'. About $62/pp but we had a few drinks, a bottle of wine and a few lobster entrees. We will be back to experience more of the menu. Thank for every little thing y'all did to make such a memorable evening.

Cansano represents themselves as a swanky steakhouse, but in reality the experience is one step above an Outback Steakhouse. The atmosphere is missing something, I just wasn't buying it, if that makes sense. Maybe the lighting was too bright, maybe the view into the kitchen, on the walk in lowered my expectations of what was to come, or maybe it was the cloudy cocktail ice in my old fashioned.My filet was tender, but under seasoned, juiceless, and overcooked because it was obviously taken out of the fridge and not brought to room temperature before cooking. The friendly staff was happy to return it to the kitchen for me, and report it was at proper temp in the center for medium rare despite the edges being medium well. Unlike any steakhouse I've ever been to, they don't offer a baked potato and instead pushed a $10 bowl of tasteless Yukon gold finger potatoes that just did nothing for me.The friendly staff brought us a free dessert for our anniversary, which was delicious and appreciated.All in all, I would not recommend when we have so many great independent steakhouses here in our little town that nail the ambiance and full steakhouse experience.

Visited Cansano's for lunch. A smaller menu than the regular dinner menu. Although there was no steak or lobster offered for lunch they still had a nice variety from pasta to pizza to sandwiches. Everyone on our group loved their meal. Our waiter was amazing. Wonderful service and a nice warm atmosphere. We will be coming back to try some items on the dinner menu.

We love dinner here!We were in for a treat going to dinner last night and sitting on the patio that was surprisingly comfortable with the heat from the day..with beautiful views.The new menu was a great surprise and new items were unbelievably wonderful.Service with Tom was great, in spite of being extremely busy!All staff was friendly and efficient.Pete the chef, is incredibly talented and everything served was perfection!

We had a really nice experience here. The restaurant is contemporary yet inviting. Upon arrival, a thoughtful birthday card was waiting on the table signed by the staff- a nice touch. We started with a Manhattan cocktail and it was made perfectly. I don't know why, but it has been difficult to find a well-made Manhattan these days and at Cansano, the bartender knew what they were doing. We started with the Steamed Mussels and Mama's Meatballs. Both were so delicious I would come back every day just for these menu items. Very flavorful and satisfying. Both were served with artisan crostini to soak up all the wonderful flavors in the mussel broth and meatball sauce. For entrees we had the Dry-Aged Ribeye and the Akaushi Filet mignon with an add-on of scallops. Sides are ordered separately and we chose to have the Roasted Yukon Potatoes and the Asparagus with parmesan and lemon. Each side was enough to share amongst two people. The asparagus was delectable and the potatoes were flavorful but a few were overcooked. The steaks were under-seasoned and not exactly cooked to order. The temperatures of the steak were different from side to side (well done to medium to rare then to medium rare). The scallops were over-salted but perfectly seared. They have an excellent wine list that I feel complements their menu. We ordered the Flowers Vineyard and Winery Pinot Noir and it paired with our meal beautifully. We were so full but I didn't want to miss out on dessert so I ordered the Tiramisu to go. I ate it the next day and honestly, one of the best Tiramisu's I've had. Service was absolutely lovely. Our server, Brooklyn, was so sweet and very attentive. The manager, Julie, assisted to make sure our meals were delivered in a timely manner so they didn't sit on the pass. Service truly was excellent. We are certainly going to try Cansano again. I do feel they need a little work on steak preparation, especially given their steak prices; however, overall- we had such a nice experience and we thoroughly enjoyed some other excellent menu items. I would certainly recommend this restaurant for either casual dining or special event.

Nice looking place. Fairly new. A little attention to detail is needed. Garlic bread had great flavor, but needed not be cooked a minute more so it's wasn't limp. The mussels needed to be cleaned more. Grit is never appreciated, and all the mussels on the plate should be opened. I'm sure the meatballs served as the appetizers are the same that are used on the pizza, and in the spaghetti. They are very good. Try making them bigger for a appetizers to make it feel like an appetizers, not an afterthought for another dish. The chicken parm is very East coast tasting. Taste deep fried and heavy. The sauce was good, just a little salty. For all the flavors of the other dishes, the risotto had very little, although perfectly cooked. Service is good.

The ambiance was unimpressive, I felt very exposed in the atmosphere, though our server was great she was so sweet and attentive! As for the food, we ordered the meatball appetizer and though it was good (sauce was incredible) we got 2 egg sized meatballs for $16 and that was disappointing. But my actual plate was the clam with linguine and I added shrimp was OUT OF THIS WORLD delicious.

Salmon was dry , bland and didn't taste right & over cooked also staff was rude will no longer come back

I have never written a yelp review before but Cansanos has given me motivation to protect you from this overpriced garbage. Unfortunately I live close to this place and have had everything on their menu. I can't wait for them to go out of business like their sister restaurant because this location has so much potential. The chef is a schmuck who will serve you a rubber shoe for a steak. Save yourself $70 and go eat a pair of crocs at Scheels. The kitchen is full of hoodlums who ruin the dining experience. Cansanos needs to send their employees to Applebees across the street to learn how to be professionals

The steak and the asparagus had no flavor. The place was very dark and the music was louder than it needed to be. The only positive was the waitress, Katie was good.
