Amazing food, perfectly cooked, and served up beautifully. Apologies that the photo of mine wasn't taken before I tucked in. My son had a fabulous birthday meal, and we both really enjoyed the whole experience. My only issue is a personal one, I struggle with noise, especially music, and combined with it being quite busy on a Sunday night in the main restaurant room, and the music, I did struggle to hear. I'm 52 with dodgy hearing which doesn't help. I was also a little disappointed that there is no disabled parking, and I had to park at the far end of the car park. It was also not great for my manual wheelchair, the bathroom doors won't allow access in my wheelchair. Fortunately I was able to use my stick that day, otherwise I would say accessibility is the only issue the restaurant has. I'd suggest adding two disabled spaces at the entrance, and a level access wheelchair accessible bathroom is added, separate to the main toilets. It didn't ruin our night, but it could be an issue for anyone who is unable to stand at all. Food: oh my, what can I say. The pictures don't do this delicious food justice at all. The steaks we had were lovely, perfectly cooked, lean and tender. The server very kindly saved some of my steak in a little box so I could take it home to my cats and dog, who also approved! Alcohol free wine, that actually tasted like wine, yes you heard me right! Nice, not too sweet alcohol free white wine, that tasted nice! I've been off booze for more than 12 years now, and this 0% wine was a very welcome surprise. I've tried lots and nothing else has come close! Gluten free options - quite literally spoilt for choice. I was really hungry, so had a very tasty seeded gluten free roll, made into a delicious garlicky bruchetta. Most starters and main meals are available as GF options, and a good percentage of the desserts too. Very impressed, and I thoroughly enjoyed my GF meal. My son loved his meal and the dessert he had, which came out beautifully presented with a sparkler, and I had a latte, with amaretto flavour syrup Very accommodating for both coeliac and alcohol free selections. They have an extensive menu for both. Overall it was roughly £80 total, including 1 starter, 2 mains, dessert and one coffee. 1 glass of alcohol free wine, a traditional glass bottle of coke (250ml). Not bad at all, at around £40 per head. They do also have less expensive early diner menus, we chose a la carte and were very impressed. Generous portion sizes of really good tasty and well cooked food. We will definitely go there again

One star review – This is the first negative review I have submitted. My parents wanted to treat me to a birthday dinner here on the 6th of April so we were all disappointed when it took 1hour and 40 minutes to receive our first food . In business it’s all about making money as this restaurant knows well by being attentive with drink rounds. We never ordered a starter . After an hour my mother asked if there was something wrong with our order and the waitress said the kitchen was still doing starters and she would try her best to push the kitchen on . So from being a lovely occasion it turned into an irritable one for my parents. Food was nothing to write about – nothing on Dolce Vita. If you’re part of a big party then you will be fine here but not a place for dining. I still tipped the waitress 15% as it wasn’t her fault – this place is just a money making machine for the owners through drink – not quality food Gary Coupland MBE

Casa Mia in Dumfries is a culinary gem that shouldn't be missed. The exceptional service and food create a dining experience that truly stands out. The staff's attentiveness and professionalism elevate the entire meal, making guests feel warmly welcomed and well cared for. Their knowledge of the menu and willingness to accommodate special requests add a personal touch to the service. As for the food, (i had Teriaki chicken) it's nothing short of spectacular. Each dish showcases the kitchen's commitment to quality ingredients and expert preparation. The flavors are bold yet balanced, demonstrating a refined approach to Italian cuisine. Whether you're a local or just passing through Dumfries, Casa Mia offers a memorable dining experience that combines top-notch service with outstanding food. It's a must-visit for anyone seeking a superior dining in a welcoming atmosphere.

Clearly a very busy and very popular restaurant, set slightly out of the town centre, on the riverside. We only managed to get a reservation for 20:30. The restaurant was packed and quite noisy. The staff were really helpful and friendly and the service was fantastic. My husband had the chimichangas starter, which was quite nice with a flavourful salsa. For mains, my husband had the sea bass with a samphire risotto with dill and pickled crunchy mussels, which was delicious! I had the monkfish in a prawn curry served with rice. I felt that the curry was probably made to a more British palate and bit too sweet and not enough flavour/ spice for me. The monkfish was perfectly grilled though, and the prawns were nice. The portion sizes were good. There also seemed to be set menus for lunch and early bird, which seemed to be good value.

Stunning food. Venison from the specials melted and the flavours were unreal. Mushroom panzerotti was bursting with flavour and i didnt want it to end. Fillet steak cooked perfectly! Thoroughly enjoyed my recent visit(s) to Casa Mia. Staff looked after me and my family really well and we were checked throughout for drinks and if everything was okay. Cannot understand the comments about flies in relation to a dining experience. This has been an unusually hot dry summer and with doors wide open im not entirely certain how you can stop flies from entering. They were no worse at the restaurant than they are in my house. Certainly didn't put me off and would thoroughly recommend dining here! Lush restaurant!

First time at Casa Mia yesterday, Lunch deals were a very good offer got 3 courses for 25 pound which I though was reasonable especially for the quality of their food. It was very well cooked and presented in my opinion. One thing I will say is I feel there was a lot of sauce with the pasta compared to the amount of pasta you got but it was delicious. Sticky toffee Sunday could have had a bit more toffee sauce also but I will definitely be back. Food was delicious and service was very good and also quick. People who great you at the door are lovely and our waitress was very nice and chatty.
