"Madison’s sandwich scene is having a moment, and Casetta has been leading the way since opening in early 2017. A stable of regular sandwiches — your turkeys, your roast beefs — are themselves gussied up just a little from sub-shop standard, and the menu is further enhanced by a rotating daily special. You’ll want to take advantage of their Instagram feed for advance notice on those specials, and online ordering to secure your bag before they sell out. Don’t skip the chocolate chip cookie, easily one of the region’s best." - Kyle Nabilcy

Visiting Casetta was a delightful experience! It's been ages since I've had a sandwich this good. The focaccia bread? Absolutely amazing. It's perfect for a relaxed meal with outstanding food. I tried the turkey sandwich and I'm still dreaming about it. The sandwiches are generously filled. I can't wait to order takeout or dine in again soon.

Another professional was considerate enough to pick up Casetta for us for a lunch-and-learn. Someone tipped them off, and they picked up a vegan sandwich for me. It was so. Good. Shaved, tender roasted and marinated butternut squash slices. Who does that it also has seasoning and spice, roasted red peppers, and just the right amount of lettuce and dressing. The focaccia bread the sandwich was on was heavenly. They also had an incredible salad with vinaigrette, and it had radishes, cucumber and my personal favorite, fennel slices! Fantastic food and I just wanted everyone to know that you can order vegan here. :) I will be back for this sandwich! Next time I think I will add avocado and I need to investigate this spicy chickpea situation...

Excellent, top-notch sandwiches with fresh ingredients and house made bread. Hands down best sandwiches in town. Parking and hours are a challenge, but it is definitely worth it. Pic is of the vegitalian which is the stuff sandwich dreams are made of!

Casetta has amazing sandwiches with homemade focaccia bread. There is plenty of seating inside and service is very fast and well organized. We tried the turkey and the Paradigm, both were excellent. The only draw back for me was the location close to the Capitol building which is always a pain with parking and construction. I found street parking close by but meters require a ridiculous amount of money for short time periods. They have a big lunch time crowd from people working in the area, highly recommend. Note hours are limited.

I went here for lunch and it was super busy. I suggest ordering ahead of time and picking up because so many people were there. The sandwich itself was good and there’s a lot of food for the price. The main reason for only four stars is because of how busy it is and how their hours are very limited.

The best sandwiches in town! I only wish they would bring back their old sub bread or make their own hero bread. Not a fan of the Dutch crunch (I find it a little bitter) but the focaccia is out of this world good. Don't sleep on their soup either!

Go early if you want specials and focaccia. Not a bad sandwich in the place but there are a few stand outs. The paradigm and the chopped cheese are always favorites. Don’t sleep on the pizza Thursdays!

All the raving reviews of Cassetta are SO warranted. I've been wanting to go for so long but due to their hours (10:30-2:30 only on weekdays) it's slightly inconvenient to get there between my class schedule. I did finally go in at around 1:30 on a Wednesday -- next time I will definitely go in earlier as a few things were already sold out! I got a make your own turkey sandwich on foccacia and this was phenomenal. Each of the ingredients tasted fresh and contributed to the overall deliciousness of the sandwich. Despite the large portion size, I finished eating it and immediately wanted more. All the staff were so friendly as well! Missed out on trying the chocolate chip cookie and chicken cutlet but looking forward to those next time!

The vibe of the restaurant is alright. It tends to be pretty busy so I either order to go or pickup. I will say the food is kind of overrated. Yes the sandwiches are good but that's just the Italian sandwich. Had the manzo and that one came off pretty greasy and over-sauce. The other one was haboken and it's not the best, it's literally a sandwich with some meat and a big slap of cheese, which can be good but the cheese was as long as the sandwich and height of a regular cheese stick. If you need a sandwich in a hurry then sure, go ahead and get it from here. Otherwise a sandwich from potbelly taste about the same and cheaper

The experience I had was my fault rather than anything this establishment did. Went for lunch with my uncle, who was in town visiting, and the sandwich I ordered was their Italian one. I should have ordered a sandwich that complemented their bread, which was great, it was just "light" and didn't contrast well with the heaviness of the Italian meats. I think I would've had a better experience had I ordered a different sandwich, like with turkey or roast beef. Overall, though, it was a good Italian sandwich, it was the contrast between the fillings and their bread that just didn't do much for me. The service was good. Took a while for our order to be completed, but we it was busy. Seemed to be a pretty popular lunch spot, which should be obvious when looking at the hefty size of the sandwiches, which are on fresh baked bread, and the affordable prices. Their pricing is better than a sub sandwich chain, and you're getting better quality ingredients all-around, from the bread to the meat and cheese. If I had to nitpick, I would say that the biggest down would be how small the dining area is, and thus the more confined seating. Both my uncle and I aren't exactly social butterflies and would've preferred to have some more separation between ourselves and other diners. I would recommend trying this place out though if you haven't. I think the limited menu is good idea and allows them to focus on a real quality sandwich. Maybe my Italian one would've been better on the focaccia instead. Either way, if I return, I think I would try one of their other specialty sandwiches over the Italian.

I took out lunch on a Monday. Meatball 3.0 - Monday special was my entree. In fact for the past couple of weeks I was trying to get this sandwich, but went out of stock before I ordered. The sandwich was really good, and flavorful. There was 3 meatballs in it, probably that is why it is named meatball 3.0.

Went yesterday to finally try their sandwiches, because I've heard so many good things. Arrived at 1:30, they close at 2:30. They were sold out of bread-all their types of bread. I hate to be picky, but when they have such short hours (10:30-2:30), I would think they would have enough bread to last during that time-especially considering their focus is bread sandwiches. We were suggested by staff to order the day ahead for pick up.

Looking forward to allegedly the best sandwich spot in Madison. Difficult to park downtown so I stick $1.50 in the machine and walk 2 blocks to the restaurant. 11:30 am on a Friday and they're closed. Not a soul around. No note on the door. I'll try again but very disappointed on the first attempt.

Raymond S.

Yelp
Every time I'm downtown Madison I always mean to stop here and finally did and I said to myself "why did it take me so long to get here." The bread and the meats and the cheeses are out of this world bonkers good. It was worth the parking ticket to snag this lunch.

A quick easy lunch spot with fresh ingredients and friendly staffs. There was seriously nothing bad I can say about my experience. You get a huge filling sandwich for the price, and definitely worth the visit!

Mallory M.

Yelp
All time favorite sandwich shop ever. When i lived in Madison I would try to go here every time that I could. Only thing is that their hours are weird (only open from 10:30-2:30) so if I had class i wouldn't be able to go. But boy oh boy would i go there every single day if i could. I usually built my own sandwich on the focaccia bread. That bread and those ingredients were so fresh and tasty. The fresh mozzarella, prosciutto and balsamic glaze combo will get me EVERY TIME!! I love it and miss Casetta so much. Cannot wait to go back.

Samantha M.

Yelp
I'm not a huge sandwhich person but this place was recommended to me and I really enjoyed it. The hours are a bit inconvenient but makes it all the more special when you do find time to go. The staff were friendly and food was made quickly. The bread was the best bread I have had in my entire life. I had the Sullivan. It was good and I would get again but also am excited to try other things in the menu

Amazing lunch spot with great vibe and even better fresh sandwiches. Must stop at lunch when you're in Madison.

This place rocked my world. I was in town for work and looking for something to pick up for lunch in the area. The pictures of these sandwiches on Yelp influenced me to stop by. The line was long but they have friendly and efficient service. Next time I would certainly order ahead online because they were probably dealing with 20 in store and 30 online orders at a time, cranking em out. You have to get this sandwich on their focaccia which was absolutely divine. Probably one of the best sandwiches I've ever had.

Casettas had been on my bucket list for a while. Finally had the chance to try their sandwiches out one afternoon for lunch. The place gets busy! Luckily made it in time before the lunch rush and got seating immediately. I ordered the Paradigm (a delicious combo of spicy soppressata, mozz, dressed arugula, tomatoes, and roasted peppers). The paradign was so good! The sandwich i requested was served on their in-house baked focaccia which was really airy and delicious (you can choose to choose your bread). We also got the Manzo (roast beef, provolone, dressed arugula, and hot giardiniera). The Manzo was a great tasting sandwich (personally Paradigm was still my fav). Both sandwiches were ~$13 each and I thought the price was worth the taste, flavor, and portion sizes. Will definitely return (my one critique is that they're only open for lunch / late afternoon on weekdays, so it's definitely hard to make the time to visit during work). Would recommend!

With homemade focaccia, daily rotating sandwiches and incredible sides, Casetta Kitchen is one of my favorite Madison spots. Although the store is small, there are usually always places to sit and the staff is very kind. Pictured was a Friday special; with chicken cutlet, arugula, ricotta, and spicy sauce. My favorite is "the paradigm" (also pictured) with spicy sopperessata, mozzarella, spicy tomato vinaigrette, mayo, arugula; and roasted peppers.

Having read the great reviews the last few years this place was on my list to try. Covid got in the way and it only being open for lunch did not help. Finally on a glorious sunny Friday we rode our bikes into town and stopped. That great weather brought out everyone. The line was very long. I heard someone exclaim that they have never seen the line that long. I should have ordered ahead of time on-line but it was too late. Actually the line moved quickly and the order itself came out surprisingly fast. We split the Italian on focaccia and I added soppressata and garlic aioli. The bread was excellent - very fresh. The sandwich with my modifications was quite tasty. The only downside - was the sandwich really worth $15??? I have tried Casettas so no need to rush back despite it being good.

Not that Casetta needs more 5 star reviews, but let's just say it is one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten. After following on Instagram for a year, my friend and I finally decided to give it a go. He typically gets the Manzo, so I followed suit, and I was not disappointed. The shop is located in a building off of the Capitol and is just the cutest little aesthetic. There was no line when we went in (1PM on a Friday) but I am sure that varies a bunch. The hours are a bit odd, 11-2:30, but I don't think it really matters given the quality of the food. The best things come in small doses? The focaccia bread is simply amazing, and everything in between was the perfect combination of flavors. The dijon vinaigrette (I think is what it is called) was something I was skeptical about but pulled the sandwich together in the best way possible. Service was fast, staff were kind, and it was just an all around great experience. Will definitely be returning to give some of their daily specials a try or something with fresh mozzarella. Certainly a quick favorite.

THE BEST SANDWICH SHOP IN MADISON. Hands down. The only issue is that it is only open 10-2pm M-F, which really limits the time I can actually get my hands on this amazing sandwich. My go to is the Paradigm. You cannot go wrong with it. It is the perfect combination of flavors and you HAVE to get it on the focaccia. No exceptions. What is great is that you can order this online and pick it up to take to the park or grab lunch here and coffee shop hop til the bars open at 4 after getting a late lunch. Either way, love this place, cannot rave about it enough, everything on the menu is good and i just wish the hours were longer!

Casetta is a definitely a favorite of mine for casual lunch in Madison. The salted chocolate chip cookie is to die for...I could absolutely eat a dozen of these in one sitting. If you're stopping in for a quick bite, a cookie for dessert is an absolute must!!! I love all the sandwiches, especially the Italian. The bread is always nice and soft and the ingredients are super fresh. You don't want to miss out on Casetta!

Rachel H.

Yum! I made my own with turkey and capicola-- but what makes the sandwich is the delicious fresh squishy focaccia bread. What a good sandwich!

Best sandwiches in Madison - must try!! I wish they were open more hours. Takeout and dine-in are great. Staff is always very kind and helpful, even with how busy they get. Don't forget to get a homemade chocolate chip cookie!

10/10 recommend and hands down the best sandwich in Madison! If you have not been here you are missing out. Very friendly staff and they crank out the food very quick. Expect to wait in line for a few minutes but you will be eating very soon after ordering. I made my own sandwich and was very happy with it. The ciabatta is a must try and I would suggest that to anyone who goes here especially for the first time. I wish I could have tried the chicken cutlet or chocolate chip cookie but they were sold out a few minutes after noon. This is a hidden downtown gem but those who know, KNOW! Check it out!

If you want a sandwich there's nowhere else you should go but Casetta. Best sandwiches in town. Get the focaccia bread. I love adding hot giardinera relish and the Dijon vinaigrette to my sandwiches. Garlic aioli is also a great add. Daily sandwich specials so there's always something different to try. The pasta e figioli soup is outstanding. And their chocolate chips cookies are some of the best in Madison. Also recommend the spicy chickpeas side. They get busy!! If you don't want a long wait, I suggest ordering ahead online. Sometimes they get so busy they have to shut down online ordering for the day. At those times I've actually been pretty lucky to walk right in without much wait. There are tables to eat in but at peak times it can be hard to get a spot.

That classic Casetta pic This lunch time hot spot tapped in to so many big city feels for me. Big city's always have the best local sandwich shops & thanks to Casetta, we have right here in Madison. I had the paradigm and it's now converted me to a sandwich girl. ‍

Idk how accurate hidden gem would be. But this place is quite incredible. Despite the crowd, they always do their best to keep things moving. Their in house focaccia (spell check?) bread is heavenly. The staff is always nice despite being crowded from opening to close. The place is small but always clean! They offer complimentary water as well. Staple place to visit while in madison.

Great sandwiches! Delicious sea salt chocolate chip cookies! Their order ahead and pick up program seems to work okay with a spacious lobby area to wait for your food to be ready. Wish they had better delivery options, though. If so, we would order from them a lot more often!

Hanna G.

WOW! Casetta was soo good!! There sandwiches are delicious and the bread is incredible. I loved the Thursday Roast Beef special! I will definitely be coming back to try more of their subs and specials.

I love this place, I really do, but after driving from the west side of Madison to downtown EARLY to get an eggplant special that they rarely have anymore AND suddenly not allowing people to order online, then getting to order after being in a long line and they are SOLD OUT before noon, well, that's ridiculous. There aren't many vegetarian options besides the vegetalian (which I had previously and was fine but then was not great the second time I had it) it was a disappointment to drive 25 minutes to not get the other vegetarian option. I just think it needs to be fair and they need to work on their ordering system. Let people order online like you usually do. The food is so good and I use to come often (like a few times a month) but now it's once every several months because of this happening on more than one occasion. Hopefully they get it figured out and improve their specials (seems like everything is chicken) like they use to!

This is not just a sandwich place. You will never look a sandwich in the eye the same again. Profoundly yummy turkey sandwich piled high enough to share (which I do). Great pro staff - a hidden gem for downtown working stiffs and anyone else.

Ok..so..Casetta. How is this place so good?! My appreciation for Casetta is that (in my opinion) there is no better place in town to get top tier sandwiches! What's even more rare is that no matter which sandwich I've tried, it's always been made with fresh ingredients, good balance, amazing bread, and an overall amazing taste. Super happy to have Casetta in town as a "go to" sandwich spot that always hits the spot! P.s., The cookies are also amazing!

I had a turkey sandwich. It was one of the best turkey sandwiches that I ever had. Just perfect balance of everything.

This place did live up to the hype, I visited while visiting Madison for the day and read about this place in a magazine. I visited right after opening so no line or waiting around, couldn't decide between the chicken cutlet sandwich or the Italian so ordered both. The chicken sandwich was tasty but the Italian was amazing, def get the Italian if undecided.

Matt C.

Yelp
The Italian sandwich. Perfectly and precisely made with fresh ingredients, including made from scratch bread very fresh vegetables, and amazing service.

They have the BEST sandwiches in the city, seriously! Their focaccia is amazing and the cookies are to die for. I highly recommend it.

Daniel G.

Really lives up to all the hype. Wife and I split an Italian + Sob Rock (one of the weekly specials) as well as two cookies. Hands down the best Italian sub I've ever had. The Sob Rock was incredible as well. Insanely tender chicken and wonderful focaccia. If you love sandwiches you need to try Casetta.

It's been a while since I've been blown away from a lunch meal, but wow this place blew me away! I can't believe it's been around for over 2 years and I'm just trying it now. Casetta is kind of tucked away with only a adoor on the outside view and next to a large corporate building. Inside, it turns into an L shape with bar seating, 1 row or small tables and then some larger high top tables for bigger parties. To drink, I ordered a bloody mary which was just OK, but my friend got the mimosa with half orange and half grapefruit juice, which tasted so light and refreshing. Everything we ordered for food was a must-get in my book! We ordered: -Loaded Hasbrown [porchetta, provolone, hot giardiniera, dijon aioli, fried egg]: There's a large disk of a hashbrown at the bottom that is so unbelievably crispy and surprisingly not oily! Mix it in with everything and it was the perfect bite. -Final Act Sandwich [mortadella, capicola, provolone, arugula, tomato, onion, mayo, Italian vinaigrette] - Highly recommend opting for the focaccia bread. The bread was fluffy and perfectly soaked up all the vinaigrette. There was a generous heap of deli meat within and the vegetables brightened up every bite. This was incredibly delicious. For dessert: Chocolate chip cookie - one of the most perfect cookies I have ever had. There was a crunch on the outside but the inside was still soft. Instead of chocolate chips, they are more like chocolate disks, creating lots of layers of chocolate. Lastly, the sprinkled salt on top elevated this cookie to another level. This is one of their most-known for items. Only 30-40 cookies made a day, so be sure to call in to save yours! We ended up getting the last cookie of the day. I will 100% be back here! Still dreaming about that cookie...

Went here on a Friday for lunch and could not believe how packed the place was! They were out of quite a bit of food when we got there, including one of the bread choices, but we still were able to order the sandwiches that we wanted. Although, I think we got the last of the bread for our group. It was all amazing!! I did a create your own turkey sandwich and was a big fan. The bread provided a great catch-all for the hot pepper juice and the mustard, yet still remained crunchy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. It was also packed with turkey. I ordered the half sandwich and I was stuffed! My friend ordered a whole final act, and I have no idea how he managed to finish it all. He commented that the bread was perfect, soft, yet not doughy, and the perfect ratio to the sandwich insides. The meat was piled high, like a fine work of art. He said that its the best sandwich that he has had in town, and he's lived here his whole life. High quality ingredients leading to tasty food! Did I mention that the slice the meat in front of you. When you look at the photos of the sandwiches on the website you think, they can't possibly be as good as they look, but then you try them and they are better! Needless to say, we are big fans of this place and can't wait until they reopen so we can go back.

Fantastic sandwiches and the best focaccia in Madison. My roommates and I love going here on Wednesdays for the chicken cutlet special. These huge sandwiches are a great value for the high quality ingredients. Definitely recommend stopping here next time you're in Madison near the capitol.

Casetta never disappoints! Such a great weekday lunch spot, we've tried so many of their sandwiches over time! They always have fun specials in addition to their classics. I'm personally a bigger fan of their deli meat sandwiches than their chicken cutlet, but all were good. Taking off a star because they have kinda hard hours, wish they were open more!

Mallory B.

Yelp
Truly amazing sandwiches. High qual ingredients, fresh bread, and, as many others have noted, don't sleep on the cookies!!! My only complaint is I can't get them on the weekend :'(

Vela S.

Yelp
Highly recommend this place, hands down one of the best sandwich shops in downtown Madison. I wish I learned about this place soon because the food and the vibes in general were amazing. The cashier was so sweet and helpful since was my first time there. I got the Paradigm on focaccia and I am drooling just think about it. Would definitely be back soon!

Yelp
Best sandwiches we've had since moving to the Midwest. The Hoboken is my favorite, and I'm from New Jersey. I always add arugula to the Hoboken Sandwich (A-plus combo). My partner has tried the Italian and Paradigm, both of which are good. Always get their sandwiches on the foccacia. So soft! I also enjoy their chocolate chip cookies, but it's often so out so order early. Casetta is always consistent with their quality and flavor, as well as speedy!

Holly S.

Delicious,and simply tasty sandwiches. Local is where it's at!!! Quality all the way!

Casetta offers the best and most consistent sandwiches in Madison. Fast and friendly staff and a lovely spot for lunch with efficient online ordering available as well. Every sandwich is stellar, but the Hoboken and Turkey are standouts. Grab a chocolate chip cookie if you're lucky enough to have the chance.

Collin M.

Yelp
Top notch sandwiches and cookies! To be honest I was slightly disappointed the first time I visited Casetta back when they initially opened. After giving it another shot I have absolutely fallen in love with their food! The real key here is to get the focaccia bread for your sandwich - there is seriously nothing better. Overall the sandwiches are amazing, they give generous portions of meat and have an amazing variety with some really great specials each day. Give this place a shot and you won't be disappointed. Special tip: get the chocolate chip cookie they have - it is absolutely fantastic with layers of chocolate mixed in somehow topped with salt. Yum!

Kate E.

Yelp
WHEN CAN I GO BACK. This was the best sammy I've had in a long time - the Italian. And they even have gluten free bread which was toasted to perfection. The amount of meat on this thing was unbelievable and the best combo of ingredients for the perfect balance of flavors. My husband had the Final Act on focaccia and also said it was amazing. Not sure if this place is considered a "hidden gem" because of its location in an office building but regardless, it is a true gem. I can't wait to go back.

I found Casetta's near the capital to be within walking distance of the work I was doing in Madison. I'm so sad I didn't go here on my first day because I have had lunch here for the fourth time in a row. The handcrafted sandwiches are amazing with a blend of texture in ingredients that don't overwhelm one aspect of the flavor resulting in a delightful meal. The Pasta e Fagioli is AMAZING and one of the very reasons why I have ventured here for lunch during sub zero days. The sausages in the soup are not a big "sausage chunk" like most soups have; it's finely ground to ensure each bite has ground sausage mixed with the fine acini di pepe pasta (had to ask them about the name). Overall the food is as amazing as the atmosphere, a place I'm glad I found and plan to visit for more lunches.
