“ I had a great time at La Casona in Hamilton. Juan, our waiter, took excellent care of us and Bryan was kind and helpful. The large restaurant is homey, well lit with a nice bar area and plenty of seating. I loved my pernil and yellow rice with chickpeas. The beef pastelillos were piping hot and flavorful. My friend loved the pork chop, yellow rice with black beans and a carne asado taco appetizer. Each meal came with a salad. The drinks were weak. Soda and lemonade were watered down but it did not take away from an awesome meal. I look forward to returning to try new dishes. ”
“ A few weeks ago, 6 friends and I went to La Casona for lunch. Only one of us had been there before, but we're all always up for something new so we gave this place a try. We were so glad we did! The restaurant is very bright and clean and the decor just made us smile. We were greeted by very friendly staff who seemed genuinely pleased that we had chosen their restaurant for lunch. They were absolutely delightful, so professional and so eager to make our time there memorable. Shout out to Daniella who was just so sweet! All of us got tacos and we all thoroughly enjoyed them. I got the chicken tacos and they were SO flavorful. I had asked if the pico de gallo served with them had cilantro in it and was told it did, so I told them I didn't want it. Without being asked, they brought me some without cilantro. So thoughtful. When my friend had made reservations, she mentioned that we would be celebrating 2 birthdays. After clearing our lunch dishes, Daniella and her co-worker came over to ask the names of the birthday girls. We told them, and a few minutes later they came out with a sign saying Happy Birthday to them and two large pieces of tres leches cake. They seemed very happy to celebrate the birthdays with us. There's nothing not to like about this restaurant! It's clean and bright, the service is exemplary and the food is excellent. The menu is Latin Fusion Cuisine with lots of different foods. Don't miss it. ”
