    This was the third time we have dined at Socossa. We just love it. They have the best calamari and the serving sizes are just right. I always think I need salt and pepper but not there.

    Risotto was very bland- as if water were used instead of homemade broth or stock. It was much better last year. Booth seating request made at time of reservation was not honored

    Decor belies the average preparation, under seasoned and plainly plated entrees masquerading as fine dining. Charcuterie sampler was the exception.

    There were eight of us and each person could do nothing but rave about their meals. I had the Ceaser Salad it was good but not the best I have had. However, I ate every scrumptious bite of Beef Shoulder Special with Polenta, it was flavorful melt in you mouth heaven. Others had the potato gnocchi with Bolognese and Eggplant Parm, Sautéed shrimp in light curry sauce and not one bite remained on our plates. Inviting atmosphere and great service. I will return.

    Although fairly busy on a Thursday evening, the service was attentive. The Insalata de Mar was well balanced and tasty. The Saffron soup was well blended, not overly salty allowing the flavor to come through. The Risotto with butternut squash and steamed scallops was delightful. We took home the Tiramisu plus the Pecan tart with vanilla gelato and enjoyed them too.

    Scossa is generally consistent, although last night’s meal was an exception. The rockfish special with rice pilaf was disappointing, with two very small pieces of fish and a pile of white rice, no vegetable. The service was uncharacteristically poor, which I suspect is due to understaffing. Looking forward to improvements as the summer progresses.

    We have dinner at Scossa almost every time we're passing through Easton visiting family. It never disappoints! Service is impeccable, the food and drinks are yummy, and the location - right in downtown Easton, across from the courthouse - couldn't be better. I'm vegetarian, and I particularly appreciate all the veggie options they offer (my favorite is whatever pasta they're offering with gorgonzola sauce). Great salads, too.

    Scossa is the best restaurant in Easton, and no visit to the town is complete without dinner at Scossa. The service is attentive without being obtrusive. There are always interesting specials, along with long time favorites. The drinks are good-sized, and the wine list is extensive. The food is well prepared, and the portions are not overwhelming. The restaurant is often full, but the noise level is subdued. There is outdoor seating, but I’ve always dined inside. The prices are very reasonable compared to city prices.

    Our food server was delightful and attentive. Our food was delicious. Our only complaint is that we chose to eat on the patio as we enjoy outdoor dining — the flies were relentless. When we go back, we will probably choose to eat indoors so we can thoroughly enjoy the experience without the constant swatting and shooing.

    Absolutely beautiful restaurant overlooking the historic Talbot County courthouse. Bar area, indoor and outdoor dining are all great. Menu is simple and incorporates seasonal local ingredients. The espresso martini was one the best we have ever tasted. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend and can’t want to come back.

    Celebrating anniversary. Saffron soup interesting and tasty, spinach with pears and Gorgonzola salad was nice, Cesar salad mediocre (anchovies were forgotten and later brought by server), butternut squash risotto was bland however the scallops were delicious, eggplant was under cooked, inedible and sent back. Wait staff tried hard and pleasant.

    It is always a fun visit to Scossa. Their patio seating is inviting and the service is excellent. Of course, the food is the star. We had the broccolini salad, which comes warm with grilled scallops and shrimp, the asparagus soup, which was the daily soup special, and the daily special pasta of lobster ravioli with saffron sauce and white asparagus. Truly lovely lunch.

    Selection was poor as kitchen ran out of specials. We were there at 7 and because they close on Tuesday and Wednesday perhaps Mondays are fast food nights. Totally unimpressed and it used to be a go to for us when we had guests. No more.

    We have been going to this restaurant for about 10 years. Always had a wonderful experience. This time the atmosphere was loud, mostly coming from the bar crowd. My eggplant parmigiana was undercooked, as was my pasta. My husband was sick the entire evening and next day from his veal. We drove frequently from Washington, DC to spend the night to have dinner at Scossa’s, one of our favorite restaurants. Unfortunately. . . not again.
