I worked with Ann, the events manager, to plan my future SILAS bridal shower. Ann was warm, helpful, professional, and patient in helping me to plan every detail to make a day about which everyone is sending heartfelt compliments. The room was set up to accommodate our specific needs, the food was delectable and gorgeously presented. Ann was able to suggest a flower vendor who delivered designs that fit perfectly into our theme. Everything was perfect, and Ann helped me to feel comfortable and able to enjoy the party as both the host and a guest. I highly recommend this venue and cannot say enough about my positive experience with Ann. We also booked the rehearsal dinner with Ann and Cassis, and I am genuinely looking forward to returning.
We had our small, intimate wedding reception (28 people) at Cassis. It was everything that we had imagined and more! All of our guests were SUPER impressed by the entire staff, especially Ann. Ann made the entire preparation and planning process seamless. Planning a wedding is stressful no matter what, but working with Ann was such a pleasure, i definitely would come back to Cassis for another event! We hired 3rd party decorators (Luxe Event Planners out of North Port, FL) and Ann made sure everything was perfect before guests arrived. Thank you so much, Ann & the Cassis staff, for making our wedding night absolutely perfect. I can't wait to work together again in the future!
Ann C., the event coordinator, is AHHHMAZING and fun to work with! She is also an incredible photographer! My husband had my 50th birthday party at Cassis in the private dining room as well as hosting many dinnners with family and friends over the years. As a local florist I have provided florals and decor for many of Cassis' customers. You will be very pleased with the ambiance, delectable and creative dishes and professional and attentive service.
We hosted our wedding reception here years ago and come back every year for our anniversary. Every time we visit, we are delighted by the delicious food, beautiful atmosphere, and spectacular service. This year we tried the pizza and wings, which did not disappoint, along with the Croque Madame, which is exceptional. Alex W is the best!
The atmosphere is very nice. The service was very good. The food was okay. I had a few items. Quiche, French toast, croissants, avocado toast, etc. The food was good but nothing really special. It is very commercial tasting and looking. The place is very big and has what seems like 200 seats.
Celebrated his birthday here and had a wonderful evening after having a stressful day which really seemed to wash away anything before our arrival there. The food was amazing (best I've had in a long time...picky eater here!) He said the ribeye steak was also flavorful and tender. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Definitely recommend it here for exceptional food and ambiance.
My mom hosted my shower here this past weekend & everything was phenomenal. The food was delicious & the staff was attentive. The private dining area was beautiful & Ann made sure everything ran smoothly. I highly recommend hosting an event at Cassis!
My future sister-in-law hosted my bridal shower here last Saturday and it was amazing! The event coordinator, Ann, and her team at Cassis were very attentive. The service was impeccable, Ann and our server were very detail-oriented and the food was very delicious as always. I usually go to Cassis for dining or coffee but now I highly recommend it for events! Ann is a photographer so we also appreciated the photos she took of our group. Really appreciate that they made it such a wonderful experience for our families and friends.
