Casa Giuseppe is a Northern Italian cuisine gem. With perfect dining experiences, as mentioned in the reviews, it's a place where you can enjoy a drink, homemade bread, and olive oil before your meal. The food is consistently praised for being well-proportioned and fresh. The staff is commended for exceptional service, making you feel welcome. The ambiance is described as cozy and warm, and the restaurant even offers a lemoncello drink at the end of the meal. It's a great place for social gatherings and even romantic dates, as one reviewer mentioned the rose napkins on Valentine's Day. Definitely worth the drive!

    If you’re a fan of seafood, this place is an absolute must-visit! The seafood boil is hands down the star of the show, everything is perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The shrimp are plump and juicy, the crab legs are tender and sweet. What really sets this spot apart, though, is the seasoning, they have the perfect balance of spice and flavor, and you can customize the heat level to your liking. The portions are generous, so it’s perfect for sharing. The sides, like the garlic noodles and shrimp tacos are so delicious. The staff is friendly and attentive, making the whole experience feel special.

    Alejandra was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We had the pernil burrito and the pernil sandwich. Both so delicious and generous portions. Empanadas to start that were fresh and crispy. Sauces are fantastic, especially the red sauce! We had meant to meet a family member from PA “half way” but dates were confused so family member never came but it was worth the drive from CT!!
