Description
Angelo and Denise Elia have run Casa d for 11 years, and its often the first restaurant Lauderdalians think of for birthdays or anniversaries, to entertain an out-of-town guest, or to keep a Friday-night date with the spouse youve barely spoken to since Monday. Their classic Tuscan menu includes gamberoni, giant prawns with cannellini beans, sage, and cherry tomatoes; zucchini and squid dusted with semolina and lightly fried; wood-roasted free-range chicken; bistecca alla Fiorentina; and rigatoni topped with homemade sausage and winter mushrooms. The long list of specials changes nightly, and a wonderful menu of Italian wines chosen to represent individual regions makes dining here second only to a trip to Tuscany.
