About this business

Casamento's Restaurant was established in 1919 by Joe Casamento, a hard working immigrant from Ustica, Italy. Casamento's is a spotlessly clean restaurant tiled inside and out. Following building traditions from his native Italy, Mr. Casamento knew tiled surfaces would be easier to clean. So much tile was needed to meet Mr. Casamento's requirements that it took 4 tile companies from across the United States to fill the order. Customers liken it to a giant swimming pool.

What a rip-off! – The gumbo had two microscopic shrimps and no other evidence of seafood ingredients. My sandwich was no better than is usual in much less expensive N.O. places. The table was dirty and was not cleaned. before we were served (or at any time). The waitress was surly. The kitchen is atrocious, and the restroom is worse.

WORST service that I've ever received!!! – Don't bother wasting half an hour in line to get a table in this restaurant. Not worth it. Go to ACME or the Gumbo Shop in FQ instead. For a superb meal and awesome service, go to Emeril's. We came to Casamento after seeing it on TV, but the menopausal waitress was SO rude to us that made us wonder how the restaurant made to the food network. She knew that we were upset about her hideous attitude and poor serivice, but she had the audacity to add a $18% gratutity to our bill (for pa... read more

Pre-game for Ms. Mae's – I got a nice big oyster loaf dressed. The oysters were fried nicely, but I got a lot of flavor from the oil they fried them in. I don't know if they change the oil often enough and clean out the fryer, or maybe the temperature is too low. Anyways, I was non-plussed with the bread they used. I feel that there is nothing more important for a sandwich with fried oysters than Leidenheimer bread. I don't know why they wouldn't just serve it as a poboy instead of a loaf, maybe it's tradition there, but the... read more

THE Place for Oysters!!!! Oh, My God!!! If you love oysters you have to go to Casamento's! It's small and covered in white tile and there is usually a line to get in and it isn't open every month of the year...but it is worth figuring out when you can get in. The BEST oysters anywhere. Raw, fried and in a stew. You can eat them raw at the bar while waiting for a table. If you don't like oysters there isn't much else to eat except sometimes they have spaghetti with daube and a grilled cheese sandwich and fries. Bring cash...I... read more
