Cacciatore's Restaurant: A Taste of Italian Tradition in Johnson City, NY

You hear plates and silverware colliding. People are smiling and talking. The food is out of this world. Everyone is Italian tonight

My wife and I came into town to run some errands and found them through a quick ‘Italian restaurant’ google search. I’m so glad we did! The wait was estimated about 20-30minutes, but we were offered seats at the bar without any wait! To our surprise there was $5 spaghetti night and what a nice welcome to find an affordable meal! We got a Moscow mule, Diet Coke, and a double shot of Tito’s vodka. Our meals were spaghetti with a meatball, rigatoni Bolognese, and crab stuffed mushrooms. The meals both came with salad and house made Italian dressing (delicious!) and complimentary homemade bread. Everything was absolutely perfectly cooked and seasoned. The bartenders were both women, and extremely quick and attentive. We had such a great experience and loved the atmosphere. The bar is very old school wood, really made you feel at home. We will be returning, I’ve heard great things about their ‘Steak Tuesdays!’

Classic Italian American. Great food, wonderful service.

It was my first experience since Cacciatore's moved from the small mall. Wonderful atmosphere complete with Italian music playing in the background. I started my meal with warm bread and a glass of Chateau St. Michelle is a white wine with a nice crisp taste. I ordered Mediterranean stuffed mushrooms. A wonderful taste of herbs spinach and feta. Next was my salad with thousand island dressing. Followed by my main course of Tortellini with roasted garlic sauce, topped with shaved parmesan cheese. If I had known how much food it was going to be, I would not have eaten the bread. The dish was perfectly cooked, the parmesan cheese, spinach, and cream sauce gave it a wonderful taste. I really couldn't taste the garlic in the sauce, still and amazing dish. Dessert was a slice of Chocolate Fudge cake. Need I say more, nope. My waitress Damianne was wonderful with great service. I will be back to try other dishes.

I’ve been coming to Cacciatore’s since I was a kid, and I can honestly say I’ve never had a bad meal here. The food is consistently outstanding and the service is always top-notch. My go-to order is their salad with crumbly bleu cheese and Italian dressing and their rigatoni bolognese! Absolutely delicious. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The atmosphere is that cozy, homestyle Italian joint vibe, welcoming and relaxed. It’s a great place to grab a drink, enjoy amazing food, and spend quality time with friends or family. Cacciatore’s is a true staple in the community, and I can’t recommend it enough!

Came in on Thursday night for dinner. It gets pretty busy but it’s worth the wait. I had the crab stuffed mushrooms, and the rigatoni bolognese, the chicken masala was also delicious. I had a Manhattan as my drink. It’s misspelled on their menu but it tasted good lol. Our waitress was Cora, she is wonderful!

Amazing service and food. I went on April16, 20025. This place is so good about a 30 to 40 minutes to be seated. The people were very friendly with each other as we all were sitting to get a table. They give you a buzzer that way you do not miss your turn to get a table. Our waitress (Denise) did an amazing job attending all of the tables in her section. I brought my 95 year old friend. The team are very fast and efficient how they clear the tables. Everything taken off,one person cleans the table and wipes the seats off.another comes and sets the table. The greeter brings a group to the table in about one minute. Everyone should go on a Wednesday to try the wonderful spaghetti with meatballs or sausage.

This is one of my favorites for many reasons. The bartenders are always a joy to visit, the food is truly SO good. Everything I try on the menu surprises me. Try the appetizers, meatballs, tenderloin tunnel, the pizza is top notch that you'll eat your crust! Try garlic pizza with ricotta and hot red cherry peppers! The atmosphere is nice and I like that you can step outside to a covered patio as well. Ample parking. I would buy bottled water instead of tap here.
