Went last night to celebrate mine and my boyfriend’s anniversary. Cheryl was our server and she was so sweet and provided top notch service!! The food was amazing as well. Will definitely come back.

Went with a larger group of 17 while in town for a basketball tournament. Such good Italian food! I had the lasagna which was excellent. Fried ravioli was delish! The wait staff were amazing and we loved the live music (piano player). This was such a great experience and we will be back next time we’re in the Kansas City area. Be sure to call ahead for reservations. We will definitely be back!

All positive over here! Great experience. We went on a Sunday afternoon after most folks were through with their lunch. We ordered a couple salads and two entrees off the Daily Specials menu. Quite possibly the most delicious Italian sausage I've ever tasted. Our server was on top of every detail and it turns out her husband was working the section next to where we were seated. We enjoyed a decent conversation with both of them. We had a really nice dining experience. Took a glance at the bar area on the way out and it was very nice as well. We'll be back! Oh yeah, Flo's Poke A Dot Lounge's wifi password is cascones for those of you that enjoy a great dive bar with fantastic personnel.

1st time going, so impressed! Our waiter Victor was super nice and suggested I try the veal limonata and my friend had the veal marsala, AMAZING! The dirty martini was absolutely delicious lol. Clean with a very nice atmosphere and the decor was nice 10/10 would recommend!

I’ve been coming here for years. It is my favorite Italian Restaurant in the metro area. The food is delicious, the wine selection is large and the staff is so amazing. You can’t go wrong with the lasagne or chicken parm. I have the toasted ravioli as an appetizer and it was so much better than any I’ve ever had before. The ambiance is comforting with lighting that is a bit low. Very nice restaurant!!

Food was delicious! Jay loved his sweet Italian sausage, and he doesnt usually like marinara, but he did like this one. Maria was so friendly, attentive and accommodating. I also noticed that the staff knew the names of several patrons, so they have many regulars. The Christmas decor was beautiful and I Love Christmas! Not our first time here, won't be the last! 😊

Johnny Cascone's is fantastic. Has great atmosphere, quality and good value food and amazing service. You can tell this business is ran with the passion of its owners and dedicated staff.

The place was very understaffed. They should seat less tables when they have few staff. It was sad seeing the staff work so hard with no help. They did as much as they could. The food was very very understaffed seasoned. Super sweet and had no Italian spices. It was greasy. My wife had the angel hair pasta and it was not made correctly. It appears it was not even fresh. It should have been. The salads were way over dressed and ill conceived. I’m really not sure why this place is so crowded. It’s literally like caned kids pasta. Yikes. I would never go back or recommend this place. It was not good. Please add salt it’s cheap.

Our family treated us to dinner here for the very first time when we came to visit. We sat in the main dining area on a busy Saturday night, and it was a really great experience! Our food was spectacular, and our server was a pleasure to visit with as he shared his history with the restaurant. He had been there for over two decades ! We enjoyed it so much the first time that my grandsons wanted to return the next night to have more pasta. I also ordered spaghetti two nights in a row because it was that good!! Both nights we had fantastic servers. We sat in the bar area the second night in a cozy booth. We had an amazing server who was working the bar and she too shared that she had been there for 23 years & told us the family was so amazing to work for. (It's fun as a consumer to support a business like that. ) Anyways, we had shared we were visiting from Texas and when we got home with our leftovers, she had given us a cake and wished us a safe travels. I can't wait to return one day. Thanks to Jan and Amy for introducing us to Johnny Cascone's!!

Seemingly every 4 years, we will come here with one of our chosen-family-members as he goes off for a big life event. This past week was no different as we had dinner discussing his next big adventure. That is the thing about this restaurant. It's a great place to catch up, reminisce, and talk about just about anything. When you sit down, they will give you a huge loaf of sliced, sesame dusted Italian bread. I could make a meal of just their bread. I got the eggplant parm with a meatball (One meatball is perfect cause the portions are huge). The eggplant was perfectly crispy and lightly fried. It was so delicious. The suco is a little sweet for my tastes, but overall does the job. I also got a half salad. I actually exclaimed, "THAT'S a half?!" When it came out because it was so large. The salad is substantial ingredient wise. It has chickpeas, iceberg, sun dried peppers, olives, and cheese with Italian dressing. My partner had a shrimp and noodles bowl that looked so good, I was jealous when it came out. Our friend had a pasta bowl with meat sauce and he remarked it was delicious. We all shared a lemon cake at the end that was a little too artificially yellow, but very tasty with a hot coffee. I would recommend this place, for some authentic Italian food. Service was great. We probably stayed too late trying to get our goodbyes in.

Friendly and attentive staff with a classic environment really makes you feel like part of the family at Cascone's. This is a family favorite, but for some reason it was my first time here. The meal starts with their ordinary looking bread that tastes anything but ordinary. It is constantly brought out fresh, warm, and fluffy. I had a loaf by my self and by the time our meals came out, I couldn't help but dip it in their wonderful sauces and finished another loaf. Their menu covers all of the Italian staples in addition to some of their specialties, all of which were fantastic. Not terribly expensive for a meal of this quality. Safe to say this place has shot up my list and I would love to come back soon!

Ordered online through the Yelp app. Restaurant immediately sent receipt through email. I choose the Johnnys Classic, it was amazing, came with fresh bread and I chose the house salad as the side. All the food was amazing, the young man at the desk was immediately attentive to my presence and acknowledged my food and confirmed the order for correctness. Only downside was no plastic ware for Togo order and parking was jam packed. Might have to walk from larger parking lot to get to restaurant.

Food was good, as was the waitress. The seating was horrible. Seated right next to the serving station with only a pole between it and our table. The serving trays were shoved up next to us for the entirety of the meal which held plates that had been cleared from tables but not taken to the kitchen. My husband kept pushing it farther away from us, but one of the bus staff kept moving it right back. He couldn't look to the side without coming eye-to-eye with dishes of half consumed meals. Literally any other seat would have been better than this one. Had we not already been served drinks and appetizers, we would have asked to switch tables.

I thought this place was okay but would come back and give it another try. My meal was good and the bread was okay. We really like the wine that we got and our service was really great. Just expected the food to wow me a little more.

Really dI think the key to enjoying this place are the memories of who you came with, because it is certainly not good food. Our server was great, but the prices and quality were awful- which is where the fun begins! we will always remember "that time" w\(^-^)/e spent a LOT of money on merely edible Italian food, but there is NOTHING that can keep folks coming back. No dishes good enough to make you crave it, and you definitely can do much better at that price point, even across the street at Cinzettis. For the 5 star reviews- I'm guessing y'all never had good authentic Italian food, let alone great Italian food. 1. we had the lasagna. My kid didn't like it. not sure if it was the bland meat or the microwaved "texture" of the pasta 2. we had the mozzarella sticks- k these were actually pretty good 3. the calamari was pretty tough, didn't taste fresh at all 4. the stuffed mushrooms were weirdly good, albeit very bland and overpriced 5. we had a lemony chicken dish. It was lemony, and chicken-y, but not noteworthy 6. My eggplant parm was bad. not fresh, even had a bitter taste like the eggplant wasn't fully cooked which is creepy, the spaghetti noodles under it were even creepier and very al dente in a baaaad way 7. We had the chicken spedini...nothing special 8. and the Fettuccine Alfredo. Same barely cooked pasta with an ok white sauce.

First time at Johnny Cascone's. It was wonderful. It is old style Italian restaurant. Once you walk in and are seated you will think you are in an Italian restaurant like you would see in the Godfather or an episode of Soprano's. They start by bringing out some good Italian bread with room temperature butter. Bread is good with butter or save some for sopping up the sauce from your main dish. Next had a Caesar salad. Big serving and great crotons. For the main course we had Veal Limonata and a Johnny's combo. The combo is lasagna, pasta, meatball and sausage. They were both delicious. The combo has there red Italian sauce. It was very thick with lots of mushrooms. The Veal dish had 3 big pieces of veal. Both serving were very big. We took home a lot of leftovers and the prices were very reasonable. Server, Patrick, was great. Being our first time, he was very helpful in describing the menu. Also, was a very friendly, in a good way, server. Is it the best Italian restaurant in town? Don't know - haven't been to every Italian place. However, this is the best we have been to so far. Food, atmosphere and service were outstanding. We will definitely be back.

We moved back to KC from Las Vegas. Cascone's is an old friend from our time here before. They catered my sons wedding. I had many business dinners and family gatherings here back in the day. The food is still authentic Italian and very good. I had the Chocken Parmigiana and it was stellar and a huge portion big enough for two meals. The wife had gluten free noodles with Chicken Limonata. Save room for dessert. Their Tiramisu is incredible. The chocolate and lemon cake slices are big enough to share.

For some reason we had never eaten here and were blown away by the food. This place takes it seriously. Everything was great and the servings are big enough that you'll have tomorrow's lunch. The server was great. The host dude was a bit grumpy but brightened up by the time we left. The dining room is old school and a bit tired, but we found it cool for some reason. Oh, a lot of people like this place as well. The place was nearly full by 6:30 on a Saturday.

The food is amazing here. The service is nice as well. Prices are a bit high but serving sizes are huge. This is definitely more of a casual jeans and t shirt type of Italian restaurant rather than super fancy. Very good vibes, dim lighting and comfortable seating.

Our server tonight was Sicilian! Her mother is a 1st generation immigrant and loved her Italian food and culture so much, she dedicated her working years to serving others the same glorious food she loved, and passed on the same passion to her daughter. So fun! We loved our main dishes, Mannicotti ala Romana - meat stuffed pasta tubes in a creamy red sauce and the ITALIAN FLAG (baked Lasagna, Chicken Parmigiana and creamy Fettuccini Alfredo - No changes or substitutions allowed.) Considering how heavy an Italian pasta dish is, I really wish they came with a little house or Caesar salad on the side. But I did go ahead and order a Caesar separately and was glad I did! Everything was absolutely delicious, but I will say that the bread they gave us before hand was not only pretty boring, but they served it was slabs of cold butter. I'd suggest giving the guests room temp butter, if not a bit of whipped butter. The butter they gave just ripped the thin Italian loaf bread apart. Bummer!

My wife and I had reservations for Sunday evening to celebrate our anniversary. This restaurant doesn't deserve the time I would normally give to review a restaurant establishment. The service was fair and I found the food not to be of very high quality. The waiter we had hadn't made any reference to it being our anniversary until she brought the check. At which point she asked if we'd like a dessert to celebrate our anniversary. As most places we've been offer a complimentary dessert to show their appreciation for choosing their restaurant to celebrate our special day, I assumed the dessert would not be charged to us. I was unpleasantly surprised when the waiter returned with a new bill and had added $10 for the piece of cake we ordered. This cheap move by the waiter was the icing on the cake to an already disappointing evening. In the future when we want Italian or to celebrate a special occasion, we definitely will be finding a different place to celebrate. I would encourage the reader of this review to do the same!

Service here was top notch. Was treated like family. The restaurant was nice. I had the lasagna. It was ok. I prefer a red sauce that isn't so sweet. The $6 caesar salad was not worth the money. Had the tiramisu for dessert. It was very good. It was a nice restaurant to try but won't be going back.

Great service, delicious food. We love the specials. Best pork chops in KC. Fried chicken just like my dad used to make. We eat in the bar we live the staff. John, Mira are our usual servers they are thoughtful and make a Caesar salad to die for ! The seafood dishes are fresh! Even the busers pay attention.

Love Johnnys, always come here when visiting family in KC. We love the small atmosphere the wait staff is always very friendly and helpful and always refills the drinks quickly. The food is great, the pasta has a great taste and is so tasty. Haven't had a bad meal, and been coming for quite a few years.

Service is stellar here! I haven't been here since I was a kid, and memories if that glorious chicken pasta soup. So when I came in the other day I knew I had to have it again! The waiter in the bar was so nice, when I told him it was my favorite soup he gave me some extra to take home. The spaghetti was not my favorite, a little too sweet for me. But I will definitely be back for that soup!

I'd go to a Johnny Cascone's more often than the ones e every three or four years that I do, but i takes a while for me to forget that it's not very good. I got carry out Seafood Pasta and the baked lasagna with a meatball added, Caesar salad, a couple pieces of cake 75 bucks! The caesar was terrible: a handful of romaine, two cellophane packets of tiny dried up croutons and a plastic packet of ceasar dressing. Obscene for $8. The Seafood Pasta was only ok. There was shrimp (pretty small), squid and clams (pretty rubbery) and some green lip mussels on the half shell, green lip mussels are always previously frozen. The sauce was pretty ok flavored, the wine was a little strong and the consistency was pretty watery. Inexcusably the pasta was overdone. The lasagna was ok, nothing special, I can do better at home, the meat layers were a little skimpy. The meatball tasted like a LOT of filler and a little meat. The sauce was watery and the pasta was really soft. I'm glad it's a local business and seems to do pretty well. It was pretty busy when I picked up my order on a Saturday evening. It's just not that good and certainly not a good value

3 1/2 stars. This place needs décor updating STAT. There was a tear in the upholstery of the booth we were seated in- gross. Visible dust on the wine bottles used as décor in the windowsills, and crookedly hung 'art' on the walls. But all that aside- our waitress was wonderful and attentive, and the food was very good. The complimentary bread they serve is like that 99 cent loaf you can get at any grocery store- booooring- but for $3.95 more they bring this incredibly tasty garlic dipping sauce. Well worth it. I had the tortellini with peas and mushrooms. The tortellini was nothing special, but the sauce was absolutely incredible. I'd be happy just with a bowl of that. The rest of my companions were pleased with their food, although not blown away. My mom really loved the lemon sauce on her orange roughy dish. The side salads were wonderful- served with garbanzo beans and sweet peppers. I'd happily return here if they spiff it up and do some cleaning and updating, because the food is good and our server was excellent.

This is my first visit to Johnny Cascone's. I had veal in a lemon butter sauce over fettuccine. Along with a Caesar salad, I thought the meal was authentic, and of very good quality. Looking forward to other items on the menu when on my next visit to KC. Excellent service. Recommended.....

I am incredulous that this place gets any good reviews. Entrees are mediocre at best, service was awful, and with those two being true the prices were outrageous. Save the trip and get some real food at Ragazza. I ordered the Canelloni Florentine which advertises itself as a baked dish with a light tomato sauce. It is likely not baked as it was not served in a baking dish, and was completely drowned in a heavy red sauce that was lukewarm and clearly applied to the dish right before serving. Probably almost two cups of sauce. Couldn't even see the dish under it. Tasted terrible and I couldn't finish it. My wife ordered chicken fettuccini Alfredo. She said the breaded chicken was alright but the Alfredo didn't have much flavor. The service - waitress got our appetizer order wrong. Then, she tried to take dishes off our table (salad and appetizers) twice and we had to shoo them off as we weren't done - finally on the THIRD REQUEST we just let them do it. It was really ridiculous. Then they throw a receipt at you with no folio. $70 later and I'm strongly considering purging this food out of me.

Our party was pleastly surprised by the service and food offerings at our recent visit. The Sugo was excellent and we ended up purchasing a serving to take home with us and the left overs. The serving staff was very welcoming and great on timing for each portion of our meals. We look forward to making a return trip and hope you can make it out to this gem of a resturaunt.

We've been coming to Johnny Cascone's for years and it's never let us down! After several years of being away from KC, we came home to visit my parents and they took us here for a birthday celebration. So glad to get back here as the food is ALWAYS delicious! We ordered the always-awesome Calimari Fritti and it was an stellar as I always remembered it! However, we had forgotten how incredible the Traditional Antipasto was - WHOA! Do NOT leave this place without trying it!!! The soups and house salads are also to die for! While I loved the Chicken Marsala I ordered, I couldn't help nibbling off my brother's Chicken Spedini dish!!!! It was utterly amazing and I wished I had ordered it instead! I cannot wait to get back to Johnny's so I can order my own Chicken Spedini and not allow anyone else to nibble off my plate!!

We LOVED our dining experience! It was the perfect place for my Birthday lunch. Patrick, our server, was top notch, and he made sure our time there was perfect. The atmosphere was relaxing and the food was cooked to perfection. The delicious cocktails and wine were the icing on the cake! This restaurant will become a tradition whenever we are back in the area.

Lot of mixed reviews for this place on yelp so I decided to try it for myself. Starting off, it was packed Saturday night at 7pm. we waited 15-20 minutes. Atmosphere: Pretty casual for the most part in terms of service and approach with some finer qualities such as live music and home-like decor. place has family pictures and seasonal decorations. Service: Pretty standard for the most part. Food: I ordered the Italian flag. My food came out hot and tasted pretty fresh to me. I saw some Yelpers say it tasted like frozen/microwavable food. Friend ordered the chicken limonata Elaina. This was very odd tasting, but not necessarily a bad way. The lemon and white wine was definitely overpowering...so for those with sensitive palates, I might suggest ordering something else. Friend is italian. Says it reminds her of simple home cooking without overcomplicating the dishes. I do agree the red sauce is sweet, but I do not mind it at all. I may have gotten used to it from my friends family meals (sauce taste similar to theirs). Again, if you are sensitive to taste and want a fine balance, it may not be the best quality to you based on the price of the food. Priced on the steeper end, but not bad once in a while. Overall 3.5 to 4

Initially we were disappointed because they had a limited menu for the holidays, but that's where the disappointment stopped. My husband got the chicken parm, which was perfectly cooked and the sauce was perfection- sweet and garlicky, just like my grandmothers. I got the Alfredo and spinach pasta dish. They don't skimp on the sauce at all, and everything is so good. The holiday decor was classy and beautiful, and the service was great- never had to ask twice for anything, water was always full. I think our waitress was having a rough day, her attitude could have been better, but it didn't affect the level of service at all. I would recommend this restaurant in a heartbeat though.

There are several good Italian restaurants in Kansas City, and Johnny Cascone's definitely makes the cut. They have a number of great menu items and offer several daily specials. I'm always on a quest to find the best of the best when it comes to food. However, instead of labeling an entire restaurant as my favorite or the best, I tend to identify select menu items that evoke a personal craving sensation, earning a spot on my best list. Johnny's actually has three items that make the list and continually call me back. First, they have a special on Sunday that serves up some of the best fried chicken in town. Ok, so that's not exactly Italian, but it's so good. It's crispy, flavorful, juicy and tender, with all the sides and your choice of soup or salad. It's a must try! Second and more on the Italian side of things, their cheese filled ravioli is made fresh daily. In my opinion, there isn't anyone else's who comes close to being as good. Third, and this one might seem silly, but I'm a cheese lover, and without question JC's has the BEST hand breaded fried mozzarella. I would go there just to eat it alone! While we are talking about the best, it should be said that Cascone's probably has the best jar spaghetti sauce in town as well. I'm just saying. If you haven't tried Cascone's Original Pasta Sauce, it's worth picking up at the grocery store the next time you're stocking the pantry. It will become a household favorite and instantly step up your spaghetti game at home (unless of course you make your sauce from scratch). No matter if you're eating out or in, Cascone's has something good to offer. I'm sure if you check it out, you'll find a few "best" items of your own.

We used Cascone's on 91st for our daughter's wedding and have to really compliment their professionalism! Their food was amazing and everyone enjoyed it very much . They are dependable, and their setup was perfect! Thank you ESSY , the manager for handling our order and delivery!

I was here recently performing a show and was impressed with the staff and food. Tucked away from Metcalf, the building is unassuming but well marked. Being their for a unique experience, I did not sit down and eat but did get a taste of how they operate and was given a to-go box afterwards. An old Italian eatery feel, Cascone's, for being a chain restaurant, still keeps a unique vibe that pays tribute to an authentic feel. Portions are large so definitely be prepared to leave with a doggie bag and the menu is quite expansive so it may take time to decide. The staff I interacted with was friendly, accommodating, and professional. With a full bar selection, you can enjoy a glass of your favorite beverage, eat some flavorful Italian, and leave with a few leftovers. Again, since I was there for an event, I want to go back and try it again in the traditional sense. Happy dining!

I am so glad we made the trip during restaurant week to try Johnny Cascone's. What a wonderful experience. Denise, our server was absolutely delightful. She really went the extra mile in making sure we were well taken care of. I had the Short-Rib Pappadelle, which was very tasty. The sauce and mushrooms were incredible, and the short rib was so tender and juicy. My wife had the lobster risotto, absolute STAR of the night. This dish was next level delicious. We found that this isn't always a menu item, but we will be calling on the weekends to go back the lobster was cooked perfectly and the creamy parmesan risotto was out of this world. We talked about it the entire way home, and yet again the morning after. We can't wait to go back! Definitely the best Italian food in KC that we've had.

Amazing food and amazing service. I ordered the crazy Alfredo and it was the most delicious thing I've eaten in a long time. Definitely recommend!

It's been a long time since we've been in a restaurant with service this great. From the sangria and calamari to the meatballs and cheesecake, not only was the food heartwarming and delicious, but the whole service team was impeccable. Prioritizing our daughter's meal, fun conversation, swift dish clearing and table boxing--it was all so careful and thoughtful. This is definitely our new family favorite.

I've always loved the cuisine at Johnny Cascone's. It's absolutely the best for classical Italian food. My favorite is the "Italian Flag Combo," which is a sampler of lasagna, chicken parmesan and alfredo pasta. The interior of the restaurant is charming and I find it to be an ideal place for business lunches. They also offer a large banquet room which I've reserved at least 6 times over the past 10 years. It is a beautiful room with projector, PA, and a great ambiance. I've used it for wedding anniversary parties, business presentations and company Christmas parties. Cascone's provides the room at no charge when you are buying your group a meal. Service during these events was always fast and attentive. It's clear that they give importance to the people in the banquet room - getting back quickly to each person regarding food and drink, appetizers and desserts, wine and beer, etc.

Went to Johnny Cascone's for dinner because we had a Groupon. Now, conventional wisdom dictates that if a restaurant is offering a Groupon the food is not good. Johnny Cascone's met that standard. The Red Sauce: They feature a red sauce called "Sugo" sauce, which is so sweet it's like eating Spaghetti O's, you will find Sugo on most dishes. The "Sug" in Sugo stands for the mail ingredient, sugar. Upon request they will bring you a nice traditional Marinara, it was actually not bad, just remember to ask for it. For starters you are offered a delicious chicken pasta soup or a wilted soggy salad with house "Sweet Onion Dressing", yes more sugar. GO WITH THE SOUP and if it's not hot enough as them to reheat. The filet was not good, it was dry, no flavor, and the cheese melted over it smelled very strange and unappetizing, but. One last thing, I saw two waiters carry their pens in their mouths, then hand them to customers to sign their receipt. Please don't do that. I will say, in reading some of the reviews, some people like the sweet red sauce, if it's your thing enjoy it. Long story short, always trust conventional wisdom.

This place was not to my liking at all. However the service was good. I would not go back. They need to call Restaurant Impossible. They need it.

Dinner at Cascones last night was a wonderful experience. We both enjoyed a glass of wine, rolled by the house salad that was freshly prepared with just the right amount of dressing. We both ordered combo meals knowing we would have leftovers to take home with us. Their marinara sauce is the best, Italian sausage sweet not to spicy. We didn't even get to the lasagna that is the leftovers! Friendly staff provided great service!

Dined here this evening and thoroughly enjoyed it. Nice atmosphere, great service and delicious food. Perfect! They start you out with a hot fresh loaf of Italian bread. I chose the cheese ravioli as my entree and a side salad with house dressing. For $3 more, I ordered a meatball to go along with my pasta. It was delicious. The tomato sauce (sugo) on the ravioli was very good, and I found myself dipping my fresh bread in the sauce and enjoying that as well. I give this restaurant 5 stars... it's as good as it gets!
