Feedback
Chesca's Restaurant has become a mixed bag in recent visits. While many patrons rave about the exceptional food, including standout gnocchi and braised short ribs, others express disappointment with inconsistent service. Some diners noted slow response times and issues with allergy management, while others praised the friendly staff and lively bar atmosphere. The ambiance is reported as inviting, though occasionally stuffy. Despite a few lackluster dishes, most agree that the quality of the food—ranging from lobster ravioli to unique appetizers—often makes the experience worthwhile. Overall, this restaurant continues to deliver memorable meals amidst service challenges.
The food was excellent, and the staff was very friendly. If I could give it a 5.0, I would, because we had such a wonderful experience. The portions were just the right size for an individual, though it's not the best place if you're overly hungry. It was one of the best meals we've had on the island. The short ribs and paella were outstanding!
I ordered the sea mussels and lobster ravioli, and they were excellent. Another guest at our table had the short rib, which was also quite good. There was no filet on the menu, so a woman at our table opted for the sirloin, but she wasn't impressed. The highlight of our experience was definitely the server, though I can't recall his name.
Fantastic restaurant! We absolutely love the food here and make a point to return every year when we're in town. The meals are delicious but not overly fancy. Tonight, we enjoyed spinach salad with goat cheese, a pear bibb salad, and wild mushroom soup, followed by sole piccata, braided short ribs, and tortellini. For dessert, we had sorbet and brownie à la mode with caramel cream. Definitely worth it!
The ambiance is fantastic, and the food we ordered was wonderfully unique in taste and flavor. She started with a bacon-wrapped feta-stuffed date and then had the cod.
This restaurant is not what it used to be after all these years. The service is quite disappointing; you often have to ask several times for bread, water, and your drinks.
