Cesco Osteria - Bethesda

We celebrated our son and daughter-in-law’s birthday! Cesco always provides great atmosphere inside and outside and the food and service are terrific. They also time the meal well so we are not in and out in under an hour. Service was very nice! Wonderful evening and we will definitely celebrate more memories there

Everything was fantastic, hard to have a conversation as the music was too loud……..

Service was very poor and we notified them of our daughter’s wedding anniversary but there was no mention and nothing was done for the kids. Water glasses were not refilled and I was never offered a coffee refill.

A warm evening so it didn’t matter that the heaters were not on outside. The patio is lovely. The food was delicious. I had butternut squash ravioli. The pasta was clearly handmade and the filling excellent. The gratis pre-dinner serving of vegetable frittata was a very nice addition to the meal.

We have been going to Cesco Osteria for years. The food and service has always been great. This is one of the better, if not the best, Italian restaurants in Bethesda. We are so sorry to learn they will be closing down. Our hope is they will reopen soon in a location in Bethesda. We went, last night, for the last time with a group of friends that feel the same way.
