Rocco's Calamari vs Casa Calamari?

[rschwim]

I've been to Rocco's a good number of times and thoroughly enjoyed their fried calamari... I've been hearing good things about Casa though... Anybody been to both?

I give the advantage to Rocco's, but I've only been to Casa once. On that one visit, the fried calamari was heavier, greasier, the batter not as crispy, and the squid not as fresh tasting as at Rocco's, where I, like you, have enjoyed the namesake dish a number of times. But maybe someone with more experience at Casa would say my experience was atypical. There's also another Casa Calamari in Bath Beach. I've driven by but never eaten there. Anyone been?

Rocco's was much better than either Casa.
