Cast

Bree and Marc Swierkowski are no strangers to perfecting the dining experience. Their restaurant Ella’s in Wareham has long been a desired destination for wood-fired pizzas and European inspired dishes and their new venture, Cast Seaside Bites & Bar in Marion follows up with a focus on fresh, local seafood. Small thoughtful and creative plates feature local ingredients and seafood, infused with Japanese and Latin influences. The seaside décor invites you to enjoy deliciously crafted cocktails at the bar or indulge in the coastal vibes at one of the bright, whitewashed tables in the restaurant, or pull up a woven chair on the sun-drenched patio.
