Luisa's Cucina Italiana

I intended to take a picture of my meal for this review BEFORE I ate it but my brain failed me when they placed the plate in front of me. This place is a gem. I've been here many times but I wanted to share my feelings with you because they are stellar. If you're local (or just passing by) treat yourself to an excellent meal at Luisa's. You won't regret it. I'm not easy on my restaurant reviews so trust me this place is really that good 💯

Was our first time eating here today. Busy lunchtime crowd but service was phenomenal. I cannot remember our waitresses name but she was an older gal who was extremely friendly and top notch. I'd come back just to have her again as our waitress. I had the cream of crab soup and thought it was delicious. Had plenty of crab meat and very flavorful. We also had the Mozzarella Caprese which was fresh and tasty. We also ordered the chicken parm which was decent. The chicken was slightly overcooked but still pretty good, especially for $11. She had the Shrimp Riviera which was just ok as a couple of the shrimp were a little mushy. We probably wouldn't order that dish again. We will absolutely be back to try out a few more items from the menu! Thank you for a nice first experience!

The best dine-in Italian Restaurant in Chestertown! They have excellent service, the wait staff are amazing! Their food is delicious and has HUGE portions! They accommodated our birthday party of 14 guests! Everything was delicious! We love going there!

Decided to swing in here this evening with my husband and daughter, we ordered meatballs for my daughter and lemonade. Both came immediately. My husband and I ordered a shrimp cocktail and crab soup and two chef specials. 20 minutes had gone by, And we started to wonder where our appetizers were. Another 20 minutes goes by and we finally ask our waitress what the hold up is. I assume that the shrimp cocktail is already prepped regardless if it wasn’t, it’s very easy to just put some shrimp on a plate with cocktail sauce. As well, I assume the crab soup is probably already prepped in a large batch and all you have to do is put it in a bowl and bring it out to a table. Our waitress told us that she would go check on what’s going on on two separate occasions. The third time we told her we wou

Locals already know about this gem in Chestertown but travelers might overlook it…that would be a mistake. The food here is outstanding. Our party had the swordfish (with a lemon sauce and capers over angel hair pasta), the fettuccine Alfredo, and the tortellini with meat sauce. All were delicious. The desserts may be the highlight - the carrot cake was out of this world. The only slight dings were they were understaffed so service was a bit slow and the vibe was comfortable but not spectacular. Neither of these significantly detracted from an excellent meal.
