My three sisters and I enjoyed an early dinner after a fun glass blowing class down the road at Gather Glass. We enjoyed Chicken Francese, Pollo Milano and Chicken Parmesan, all delicious with generous portions. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and servers were excellent. There are a lot of choices for lunch/dinner on the Hill but I would highly recommend Cassarinos, you won’t be disappointed!

Always top notch food and service. The walk up to the stairway to the dining room has the aroma that transcends me to my grandmother’s house.

The staff at Cassarino's really has customer service as a priority. Starting with the valet parking, and right to the end of the experience - it was great. Server was attentive, but not 'haunting'. It was refreshing. Lasagna, Chicken Escarole Soup, Chicken Parm - all favorites, and always delicious. Even dessert was perfect ! I would (and do) recommend Cassarino's to anyone who asks where they could go for good food.
