"We've been to Casa Di Lisa several times but this time was special. I recommended our family celebrate a 20th birthday at one of their round tables. There were 7 of us and the service and food was as if there was only two of us. Casa Di Lisa went above a beyond what we expected both in food and service. Can't say enough good things about Casa Di Lisa."

"This restaurant has an excellent raw bar and great appetizers. We have been there twice now and the clams casino will make us come back over and over again! The staff is always great and we've tried different entrees from the lobster fra diavolo to the veal chops to the veal
Franchais and jumbo stuffed shrimp... It's wonderful!

"Overall, the food was very good and the service was friendly. My complaint is with the amount of service. The restaurant seemed busy the night we dined, and I think the pair of servers who managed our table were stretched too thin with other tables. Once dinner was delivered, we were not visited again until the busboy came to package our take-home. This left me high and dry when I wanted a refill on my drink, and I also wanted salt for my baked potato (there was no salt and pepper on the table.) I understand some chefs feel their food does not need additional seasoning, but the fact that I like salty potatoes is no fault of the chef. When the servers were helping us, they were very accommodating. They just needed to see us more often."

"Restaurant was not busy. Service was courteous but slow. Veal Piccata, served cool, was sent back for heating; the sauce was goopy and not particularly savory, a departure from their heretofore consistently thin, elegant sauces. Sirloin steak ordered rare arrived medium+. Veal Francais, usually a stellar dish, was not up to par. Veal Marsala was "medium". Casa Di Lisa had for years been consistently at the top of Italian restaurants in the Pioneer Valley, with consistently delicious food, but our recent experiences have been disappointing with inconsistent food preparation and less than appetizing experiences. Their decline is a disappointment."

"Took my wife on valentines day. The restaurant had a few tables that were far to noisy. Another patron actually got up and said something to the noisy tables. That's something the staff should have addressed. The filet mignon was fantastic. Steak melted in your mouth. But the ribeye was something you would expect from a 99 or Chili's. It was tough and the seasoning was sub-par. They had a great wine list and the server was very knowledgable about the list. This place didn't really wow me. Being that this was my first time there and it was in valentines day I was pretty dissapointed. I had read many reviews and had high expectations. I probably wouldn't go back on a special occasion."

"My wife and I had dinner here on Valentine's Day. We were placed at a table that was barely big enough to fit our dinner on. It also happened to be next to a table of eight people including children who were very obnoxious and loud all night. They did move us to a new table when we asked if we could be moved. But it was still so loud in there it ruined everyone's night including other tables as well. Our server was not very sociable. We had to ask for sides and specials while one of the other servers explained those choices to another table. My wife eventually went over to the loud table and asked them to please quiet down because it was ruining everyone's night. Overall, it was not a very pleasant experience. I won't go back."

"My friend and I went to Casa Di Lisa for an early dinner at 3 p.m. We were seated immediately, but next to a couple of windows that were drafty, and asked if we could change tables, and the host quickly accommodated our wishes. Our server was prompt and very helpful with our meals, considering we both have several food allergies and needed to discuss quite a few of the dishes on the menu before making our selection. The rice balls that I had as an appetizer were excellent, nice and crispy on the outside, soft and creamy inside. My sister's bruchetta was also delicious. Both my chicken and my friend's steak were cooked to perfection! Prices were reasonable. A very good experience overall; would definitely go again."
