Let me start off with a bit of background info... I am retired from the restaurant industry, 30+ years of fine dining experience including a stint as a professional food critic.
My fiancee and I walked into La Casetta last night, with a reservation, for the first time, hoping for a great evening of food, wine, and conversation. Friends had given us a $100 gift card and urged us to this quaint little bistro.
After waiting for more than 10 minutes, the bread finally came. At this point, I knew we were in trouble. Plain white bread that was reminiscent of the tasteless trash kids eat peanut butter and jelly on. Individual sealed plastic pods of butter. I immediately thought, "is this considered fine Italian dining?". Still wishing to give this place a chance for redemption, we ordered the (roasted asparagus with prosciutto, mozzarella, and balsamic glaze). It was bland, chewy, and underwhelming.
When the waitress took our salad order, she asked if we wanted the house dressing or the Cesar dressing. I date wanted the house and I wanted the Cesar. Simple right... NOT. They upcharged me $2 on the bill for choosing the Cesar, without any notification. More on that later.
My entree, (Capesante alla Portofino) $27.95, was delicious but my fiancee's choice, (Scampi Matteo) tasted like it was made with SAND. I attribute this to the fact that the chef made it with jared jalapeno peppers instead of the cherry peppers noted on the menu. Jalapeno peppers, especially the jared ones can have a dirty or sandy flavor. Not a good choice for fine dining. We talked with the waitress about the problem and said that the dish was practically inedible. The hostess came over and tried to make a big joke about it but never offered to comp the dish even though she knew that my fiancee only took 2 bites. Disappointing.
The final straw was when we left. I used the $100 gift card to pay the $96.01 bill and tipped the waitress 20% in cash. I also told the waitress to collect the $3.99 balance on the card, as an extra bonus. When i walked past the hostess stand, I asked the waitress if she had gittef the extra $3.99 and she lied and said yes. The hostess chimed in and said that she wouldn't be getting it. She said that i would have to come back and eat there again to use up the miniscule balance. What a crock of S**t. I wanted to slam down the leftovers but i knew thw waitress would have to clean it up.
This place SUCKS. Just under $30 average per plate and they know absolutely nothing about fine dining. There are plenty of other choices, in this area, that offer real fine dining.
I recommend that you skip this poor facsimile.

Had a wonderful meal on New Year's Eve. It was four courses and every one was delicious. Crab cake appetizer was delicious flounder Francais was perfect, tiramisu was very light and good. Shrimp cocktail was also fresh and good. Service was excellent...our waitress was very informative and efficient. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I have been meaning to write my review for a long time. This is possibly the BEST restaurant to open in years. I have told so many friends to come to La Casetta and they all have enjoyed it and plan to return after this virus has gone. It's a BYOB which is a plus, so we all are waiting for summer. ....................
