    This was a delightful evening at Cascade. Our server Ann was awesome and the meal was beautifully plated and incredibly delicious…all of it!!! Cascade is a gem and now our favorite restaurant in the area! It’s bright and light and modern, while classy and elegant. Really enjoyed it, so happy to have discovered Cascade!

    This restaurant was one hour away from my house. We chose it due to a concert in South Bend. It was well worth the drive and I would certainly come back again. The food was excellent. We the the crab appetizer and Burrata. Both great. I had the Gnudi and my partner had the short rib entrée. My only negative comment is that the martinis seemed a little small.

    Went here to celebrate an Anniversary. Great meal from start to finish. Started with a shared wedge, which was fresh and crisp as it should be. For entree, got short rib and pork chop. The large pork chop was grilled perfectly and delicious however the short rib was star of show. Chad, the waiter said it was best decision my bride made all day and he was right! I know it’s a steak restaurant but we chose to go a different route and we’re still very impressed. Shared side was creamed spinach and kale with oatmeal crumble. Very good but not at level of other dishes. Shared a crème brûlée for dessert. Top notch and delicious. Chad took good care of us and made sure we knew that he was aware it was a special night. Lastly, I want to comment on atmosphere. We were there early evening and it was a very bright space. Absolutely perfect. While tables at the window may be considered more desirable, our booth which faced the windows and the namesake cascades was perfect and very comfortable with a little added privacy for a couple. We will be back to celebrate a future event.

    First time visiting so we weren’t sure what to fully expect. Cascade did not disappoint. Friendly staff, great view, wonderful atmosphere and amazing food. Everything we ordered was delicious!! Service was perfect and well timed. Even the suggestion for my dinner, the cod, by our waitress was spot on. I cannot say enough about the wagyu steak either. So much flavor and melts in your mouth! Highly recommend and we will actually be back in two weeks with friends!! Our new favorite restaurant!!
