Description:
Cassidy’s started as a franchise serving Portuguese food. Owners Trevor and Malinda have since bid farewell to the franchise and are now operating independently, with the same warm hospitality and friendly service their patrons have become accustomed to. The atmosphere is welcoming and laid back – excellent service is provided by a group of long standing waitrons, ensuring your dining pleasure

The web address is www.cassidys.co.za

The menu has been improved to accommodate all appetites and pocket sizes. For the ideal start to a successful business day, Cassidy’s open at 7h00 serving a variety of breakfasts, ice cold juices and hot beverages. An array of light meals including burgers, shawarmas, pregos, bruschetta and nachos are available throughout the day.

A selection of starters and main meals include all the old favourites, i.e. Giblets, Chourico, Chicken Livers, Espetada, Bacalhau, Trinchado, Feijoada, Chouriço, Lambshank, Eisbein, and the best seller, LM Chicken.

Seafood, delicious Prawns, Steaks and Meat dishes are also served. Steaks are simply grilled to your preference, and you may choose a traditional or a more unusual sauce to accompany it. Vegetables are seasonal and very possibly the best part of your meal. A number of items are suitable for vegetarians. Unusual salads are available alongside the usual favourites.

Business lunches may be structured by opting for a standardized set menu to ensure efficient time management and keeping within budget limits, or a more leisurely luncheon ending with Cognac may be arranged. A private loft accommodates 16 to 60 guests comfortably and a bar and wine list can be customized to your preference.
Alternatively, should you wish to have a meal cateredat your prermises, all menu items or customized platters can be served in your boardroom. Please place your order 24 hours in advance.

We look forward to hosting your function. All menu items are available to take away.

Cassidy's Prawn Special, 11 Nov 2011
Reviewer: anonymous (Adventurousness: What is the chef's special today?)

Comments: Where do we start? Tonight my girlfriend and I were treated to the best fine dinning can offer. The difference lies in the details...

On arrival we were greeted by two equally friendly waitresses and one Precious ended up serving us. In short she gave us the best service we've had in months! Truly exceptional.

We had snails for starters and 1kg queen prawns each! These were served in a massive silver casserole with a flaming pot at the bottom to keep the meal hot from start to finish. The music was obviously carefully selected and we both really enjoyed the playlist.

When we were done we were each handed a sealed, moist, warm cotton cloth that actually CLEANS your hands and doesn't leave that sticky /oily feeling on your hands like most other wipes.

Our prawns were too much for both of us and a doggy bag was prepared for each, right at the table so you know you're getting it all.

The atmosphere is very homey and peaceful. Thanks for yet another memorable night - we'll be back soon.

Braam & Annemie

Cassidy's dinner, 30 Aug 2011
Reviewer: anonymous (Adventurousness: What is the chef's special today?)

Comments: We dine out at Cassidy's regularly. Firstly because no other restaurant in the Brooklyn area compares to the laid-back, intimate atmosphere of Cassidy's. Secondly because of the fantastic service and thirdly because of the reasonable prices. Cassidy's is owned by Trevor and Melinda. Their warmth and friendliness contributes greatly to the atmosphere. You can tell that they have a good relationship with their staff (which to be honest seems to be lacking in other restaurants.) In turn, you can expect friendly and efficient service from the waiters (even when busy) the waiters remember you and they are always happy to welcome you back. The food at Cassidy's is excellent. They have a variety ranging from sushi (delicious) to pasta, to several red meat options and of course, seafood. I normally have the sushi which is always fresh and perfectly prepared (compliments to the sushi chef.) My partner enjoys the t-bone with prawns (which is a decent size and once again, perfectly prepared.) Their wine prices are reasonable, they always have some or other excellent special going on and on an off-note- I LOVE the playlist. Thank you so much Cassidy's.
