Great Florence Italian food, unfortunately closed at the end of Feb. 2022 because of the chef's retirement.

Extremely satisfied with the service and quality of food!
Called to inquire about their glutenfree (GF) options and Raphael was super helpful with attending to my needs and understanding what I wanted. Awesome staff and super helpful.
The food was as amazing as the service. I ordered the mushroom pasta made with homemade Alfredo sauce, mix seafood pasta and the beet salad. All just wonderful!
Thank you! I will def become a returning customer.

We had our wedding at Cesco in June 2021 and could not have been happier. It exceeded all expectations. Elaine was a joy to work with and anticipated all our needs. She worked seamlessly with our florist. Food and service was fabulous!! It was a perfect day!!

Cesco is back in full swing. A big thanks to Raffi and Flaco for welcoming me back after such a long time with delicious food and a perfect gibson. And Trio Caliente is back playing every Friday! Come get your dancing shoes on!

Went there for Valentine's day, so it was a fixed menu. The bread wasn't the best but the food overall was pretty good. Their pasta appetizer with lobster had good flavor. The rockfish was very tasty, and the desserts were just right. It was a pricey meal, but was of good quality.

This restaurant is great! The food is high quality and delicious. The only thing I have to say is that, the menu online is different than the one in person. So have backup dishes in case they don’t actually serve the dish you were planning on getting.

This is an excellent Italian restaurant in Bethesda. The pizzas are good, but the pastas are amazing.
They make most of their own pastas. And they have this amazing imported pasta from Italy.
The desserts are really amazing. Tiramisu in particular is amazing.
Very good service
And oh yeah, park in the adjoining garage. Easy access to the restaurant.

Great atmosphere and service. Old style Italian. Tasty. Quality. Pippin' hot, but salty and sauces are heavy. Nice wine list

Food was really good. The gnocchi... was delicious. Steak was cooked perfect. Good selection of wine. Oh and music and dancing after wards if you stay late.

Our party of five tried Cesco Osteria for the first time on August 23, 2019 for a birthday celebration. We had the most wonderful experience. Sometimes it's difficult to find food that everyone enjoys, but not here! There were so many options (including a number of options for vegetarians) and every member of my family cleaned their plates. The vegetable lasagna amuse bouche was a pleasant surprise, as was the delicious tomato focaccia bread. We tried three appetizers: arancini, anchovies (chef's special), and portabello mushroom in phyllo. Dinners included: house-made butternut squash raviolini in mascarpone cream sauce, scallops with risotto (chef's special), crab-stuffed trout (chef's special), house-made ravioli with chicken (chef's special), and the veal porterhouse chop. If we had any room left, we would have ordered desserts as well. Service was great, the only thing I would have liked was for the waiter to ask us once if we needed anything once we got the meal. The only time we saw him before plates were cleared was to see if we wanted more wine (did I mention the nice wine list?). We will definitely come back here because the food was so outstanding. Please let the chefs and staff know how happy we were and our occasion was more special due to this experience.
