When this restaurant first opened, I thought the food was just average. I'd definitely had better cuban food. Then they changed chefs and I was blown away! I loved everything that I ordered. Ropa...

The restaurant is located inside of an old style house on the corner of Knight and Haddon in Collingswood. The general style of the place is latin/cuban. They have a coffee bar inside the restaurant...

I have eaten here several times, and I'd say the food was decent. Being a cuban american, I'd say the food isn't 100% authentic, but it's closer than the "cuban" places in Philly. The Yuca Frita is...

I guess I'll need to keep looking for a good Cuban spot. My hopes that this would be a good low-key alternative to some of the uber-pretentious places in Philly were dashed when I actually went here...

I should start by saying that my husband and I were married at Casona. Yes, we had the entire restaurant for one steaming hot Saturday evening in June. Therefore, it's hard for me to give the a bad review. On the 3 occasions that I visited Casona before we decided to wed there, the service was nothing but excellent. The brunch-divine! At the wedding and for weeks thereafter, people are still raving about the food. Several people have said it was the best wedding they've ever attended. In South Jersey that might not be saying much ...sorry South Jersey : ( But I'm from NY and half of our guests were too. According to us newlyweds, there isn't a more romantic place to dine.
