My wife got home late after work. It was her birthday so I know she likes Italian so I suggested Café Verona.

The ambiance of the courtyard immediately invite you in. The amazing service makes you feel welcome. And the food will have you coming back again. The food portions are good and the prices are reasonable. My wife and I will be coming back.

This restaurant is everything you could want! I came here on a Friday with a coworker for drinks and an appetizer. We sat at the bar, had the amazing Robert behind the bar taking care of us, and ordered the blackberry cooler and bruschetta. The flavors and experience were so over the top I brought another friend back on Saturday! …

2025 UPDATE: Menu changes! Meatballs aren’t just for Mondays anymore…. They now offer a meatball sandwich every day on their menu. They’ve also added a side order of their delicious macaroni & cheese and a lemony, creamy, cheesy seafood ravioli dish that is ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥!

This place was a great time, food was excellent and atmosphere was top shelf!

Delicious food and excellent service in a very cozy restaurant on the Independence Square. This was our first visit and we were very impressed. The Chicken Parmesan and Gnocchi were delicious as was the beet and Caesar salad. Their menus is full of traditional Italian pastas and meat dishes at very reasonable prices. A great wine and cocktail list too. …

This is a gem of a restaurant in downtown independence. Took an out of town guest here for a late dinner and we had very prompt and friendly service. Very nicely decorated, especially the artwork on the walls, and there's a beautiful patio area for outdoors dining. They allow pets on leashes in the patio dining area.

Sophia was our server and then she handed us over to Karly. Both were very professional and kind. We were there for happy hour and food. Stayed for a couple hours and tended to us the entire time. Karly answered all my questions and helped me make the best pasta. Gnocchi was exceptional! I’m picky about my vodka sauce and …
