A Casa Mia in Canterbury

lovely food been in there a few times, staff are usually very nice.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, amazing italian food and reasonable prices Highly recommended

Very quick delivery, pizzas were hot and absolutely delicious, thank you

Great food and atmosphere and good service, thank you!

I just have to say, that I enjoyed the freshest, tastiest, fish today, not one bone, the attention to detail with everything, never surprises me at, A Casa Mia. See you next time.

Fantastic place and great staff great food. Would highly recommend best pizza around you can not get better

My husband and I went for lunch. We were quite early but were treated really well. The host was very friendly. The atmosphere was really relaxed, yet professional at the same time. Dean Martin playing in the background was a nice touch. The food was really tasty. I had the dish of the day, spinach and ricotta ravioli with a tomato sauce. The sauce was exquisite. My husband had the divola pizza, which he really enjoyed. It’s a gem of a restaurant in Herne Bay. I highly recommend it.

Another excellent meal thank yoy

What a disappointment! Michelin Star ?!?!?! No way! The place was empty (early evening) and we were asked if we’d booked … then shown upstairs. Ordered the gnocchi “special” and a pizza. The food turned up within 5 minutes so alarm bells rang - microwave? Pizza had a soggy bottom & gnocchi was from a packet with a ton of chopped tomatoes poured over it finished with a bit of grateful cheese on top. The chef/owner came to see us after we told the lovely waitress we were not enjoying it. He proceeded to say Neopolitan pizza is soft cooked but the dough was not fully cooked in the middle. As for gnocchi … he said making it fresh, it doesn’t last long. He showed us the Michelin Star he got in 2014 … 10yrs ago. What a shame, awfully sad.

Had the most horrendous food poisoning from meat pizza I had.

Very tasty pizza and salad all in all a very pleasant supper.

Avoid mushroom starter .spaghetti bolagaise overpriced .

Brilliant place to eat, great food and great service.

Every thing bland and pizza soggy and wet lasagna was a tiny square and was Burt and tasteless

Lovely evening meal. I’ve been a frequent customer here over the years and I’ve not been for a while. We didn’t have the best experience last time we came but looking at recent reviews we thought we’d give it another chance after all it was our favourite restaurant for years and we’ve many fond memories here. Well I was very happily surprised! Natalie and Annabelle were great. Very attentive and couldn’t do enough for you. A great asset to the restaurant. We had the special starter to share it was amazing! We also had some of the courgette fries which were delicious. The mains were lovely. I’m so glad we went back and I’m able to write this review. Prices are good, food is lovely and the service is excellent. Take it from a local, it’s worth a visit.

We had a great time, the food would be hard pressed to be any better, it was lush. Staff very attentive and such a laugh.

Good service, friendly waiters and great food

Nice place great staff v good tasty food plenty of food too , nicely decorated

For a family meal out for the night, anyone in the area wanting a taste of authentic Italian cuisine should look no further than a casa mia. As somebody who's been learning Italian, I was almost tempted to compliment the owner about how incredible the meal was in Italian. Without a doubt, the nicest calzone I've ever eaten and absolutely perfect coffee. 11/10 would recommend to anybody wanting a lovely meal out.

Great pizza and pasta. Very authentic and tasty.

All three of us had a great meal served by friendly staff at a reasonable price.

Pizza was delicious and tasted very fresh. I would highly recommend visiting in person as well for a better experience.

Very nice place in the middle of Herne bay . Absolutely stunning service , the waitress was so nice with us . Pizza tasted really good probably a bit smaller that expected considering the price tag and how looked in the plate . Overall absolutely recommended .

Great food, lovely friendly service from all of the staff, nothing was too much trouble. Good options for milk allergy. Would definitely recommend and would come back again if we visit Herne Bay again.

Excellent service great food very authentic Italian restuarant

We love it here. The food is fantastic! We have tried many different pizza places and this is by far the best. Now it’s the only place we go! Thank you so much for so many good meals.

We were a little disappointed with this restaurant. Granted, we only popped out for pizza but we were hoping for something above what we could cook at home, but we didn’t get that. Service and staff were good, efficient and friendly. Pricing was as you’d expect nowadays. Drinks we wanted on the limited menu weren’t in stock (we visited at 7.30 of a Friday evening) which irritated me. Food menu didn’t offer anything exciting to be honest… fairly magnolia choices available. Pizza dough was really good, but the toppings were very underwhelming. Felt like I was eating Tesco ham on watery cheese. Seasoning wasn’t great, and as much as the starter was ok, it didn’t feel I was out for a treat. Would I go back? Possibly if everywhere else was fully booked, but it would be a last resort. Real shame as i’d heard many good reviews.

Been before and was really good very dissatisfied after my last visit soggy watery pizza toppings dumped on in clumps The pasta dish was bland very minimal meat added perhaps a tea spoon and I would hazard a guess the pasta was not fresh for the dish I had I would guess was bought in and was not good which is a shame used to love coming here

Recommended to us. We arrived about 7 and it was fairly quite. Serving staff polite and friendly. Was not told of the specials that day. Overall a nice meal. I had meatballs which were a little dry but a good sauce. Zucchini fries which were very good. I'd say it's a little expensive overall. Soft drinks in particular at £4 for a glass bottle of coke. If your taking kids this would add up very quick. I rarely pay that much and I live in London. Although we didn't try the pizza they have a pizza oven on the premises and the old go back to try that.

Pizza is definitely the best option. Bit disappointed by my pasta but the others who all ordered pizza said it was excellent. Friendly staff but service was a bit slow.

Visited with friends for a birthday meal. We hadn't visited for a while but as good as ever, authentic Italian food. Very good menu choices and wine selection. Recommended.

Myself and a friend visited this restaurant on a Friday eve. I’m a strict vegetarian but she is a meat eater. Thought we’d go here as fancied some real Italian pasta or risotto instead of a bog standard pizza that we could have just had delivered and stayed in instead. The menu showed hardly anything for a vegetarian except pizza. One starter - the Parmagiana had Parmesan but was labelled as ‘vegetarian’ with the vegetarian sign. There was a main of Gnocchi which also had Parmesan listed but no vegetarian sign so I asked the waitress what was the difference in the Parmesans and could I just have the vegetarian Parmesan on the gnocchi instead. Well…..the excuses for what was an error on the menu and the fact that this restaurant is serving a starter which is made with rennet, which comes from the lining of calves stomachs is DEFINITELY NOT vegetarian, actually beggars belief. First, we were told that the menus were new and had only been out a week (surely it is the managements job to check the copy in view of so many allergies these days), secondly, we were told that the staff were new. Thirdly, we were told that the staff were young! All of these excuses when a simple ‘sorry - that is a mistake on our behalf and we apologise and will get the menu reprinted with the correct information’ would have sufficed. When I made a point of telling the older woman who pedalled all of these excuses (I’m assuming manager/supervisor) the importance of being accurate with dietary/allergy advice, her response was ‘well you do know that some wine is not vegan, don’t you?’ This was a snarky and direct jibe at the fact that we had ordered a bottle of their wine! She then explained that she was menopausal! I have never known such unprofessionalism in my entire life and if it wasn’t for my friend, would have walked out immediately and never given this restaurant a penny of my money. She simply could not handle being told that the menu must be accurate. This is horrifying when they are obviously not checking the proofs of their menus or the final copy, yet certain dietary requirements can be fatal. I wouldn’t trust a single dish on this menu after that experience and if you question it in any way, expect to be met with excuses and rudeness. AVOID.

My favourite restaurant in the area! My daughter asked to return for her 13th birthday. The staff are so kind and friendly and really bent over backwards to ensure our happiness. Delicious authentic menu, absolutely perfect.

Another great meal in a true gem of Herne Bay 😍 Had the most wonderful time and would highly recommend 😊

Just had the best pizza we've ever had great toppings and the base was wonderful service good too

Top, top, Naples pizza. Other options like pasta, but the pizza is simply divine! Highly recommended. Beside the food, the staff were wonderful, great dining experience upstairs and got value.

Really lovely pizza. First class. Service charge was added on and we didn’t realise and paid it. We asked for it to be taken off as we had waited a long time for one meal to the point that we couldn’t all eat together and there were a few service glitches (e.g. not offered condiments or appropriate knives to cut the pizza until we had nearly finished). We were made to feel quite guilty about it which wasn’t necessary. Service charge is an additional extra.

First time visiting this evening and we were very pleasantly surprised. The dining area is upstairs, and there is plenty of room and a nice atmosphere. The menu is varied and interesting, and both the starters and main meals were superb. There's a further dining area in a separate upstairs room that can be hired for larger groups, which we might book for a family get-together later in the year. Definitely on our radar for the future. If you like Italian food, you should give this place a visit.

food is super tasty and hot will definitely be using again.

Great pizzas, good wine, good service.

We were at a makeshift table which was not levelled and uncomfortable. The lights were to bright & flickered annoyingly when turned down. The pizzas were sparingly topped for the price. We were just an hour over our meal when they obviously wanted us to leave. It was just after 9pm. Even the owner/chef had his coat on as we left! Guessing they only get customers as there’s not much choice in the area. The last 2 occasions have been disappointing. Sorry to say, but has to be said.

Brilliant afternoon tea. Sat outside in the garden. As good an afternoon tea as anywhere and a fraction of the price. You don’t need to go to The Ritz

Great place for Italian food and great service.

Authentic and good quality cuisine. Very friendly and helpful staff. Thank you for a lovely relaxed meal. Highly recommended and reasonable value.

Best Pizza in Kent by a mile. Gennaro is always friendly and welcoming. I think he has had the place for over 10 years and it shows. The menu is ample but every dish on there is brilliant. I have been multiple times each year since I first discovered it and I wouldn't want any other pizza. Reasonably priced for the quality, my partner and I never spend more than £50-£60 and we eat well.

Fantastic high quality pizza with an absolutely charming and inviting hostess. Definitely worth the drive. A shame we weren't hungry enough to try the homemade looking desserts, they looked and sounded amazing.

This is a frequent visit for us, and our favourite restaurant on the coast here. The pizza is consistently good (note that it is chewy authentic napoli pizza) buy the meatballs are good, as are the kids meals and the coffee is top notch. The staff are consistently welcoming and friendly even when it is busy, and attentive

Best restaurant in Herne Bay! Great food, great staff and very reasonably priced. Their pizzas are the best you'll ever taste.

Best Italian 🍕 in Hernbay 👌 thank you for making the smallest pizza for my 11 month old little man it was so beautiful 😍

Kept driving past this restaurant over the past couple of years. Decided to stop on the off chance; so pleased we did. Very welcoming from when we walked in the door until we left. Staff great, food outstanding, very clean. We will be returning…..

Nice pizzas, atmosphere could be a bit warmer and traditional ie background music, maybe the addition of table cloths and candles would make a nice difference.

Just the best authentic Italian food for miles. With great service personal attention and fabulous atmosphere Thank you thank you thank you

We had a fantastic dinner here on the last Saturday of December. The food is always wonderful - the quality is excellent and we've never had a course we didn't enjoy. The staff were lovely and very efficient. Such a great place to eat whether you want pizza or pasta. Would recommend it to anyone.

Literally amazing and authentic food. My favourite restaurant by far 5*

The aubergine starter was amazing, pizzas were so delicious and tasty, too. Service people were so lovely and smiling all the time. I’ll visit this place for sure whenever I’m in Herne Bay.✌🏼🥰

Best pizza I've eaten. I wouldn't want to eat pizza from anywhere else

Great value and food. Will definitely visit again. Staff were very friendly. 8 in our party and we all enjoyed it.

Casa Mia has a great reputation for Neapolitan pizza and can only add that the reputation is well deserved. Having been fortunate to have had a pizza in Naples, the Casa Mia pizza is the real deal. However, one small beef. We ordered focaccia bread for the table, only to be served pizza or flat bread. We asked after the fact that what was served wasn't what was described, to be told it's a dipping bread. That's maybe, but the menu states focaccia? Can I suggest the menu and what is served is the same please? Apart from that, we had a lovely time, food was first class and will be back very soon.

Never been before, but was recommended by work colleagues, and was very pleasantly surprised, it was very nice and I will definitely be going back.

Me and my family absolutely love this place we have never had a bad meal from here and the staff are always happy and polite

Unfortunately the Vegan pasta dish ordered arrived covered in cheese. The staff member I spoke to confirmed it was normal cheese and said I should have ‘added a note’ to request the vegan pasta should be actually vegan. This was particularly unhelpful and I would have to order again (and pay for another pasta meal) at the cost of another £15 for effectively tomato pasta in a foil tray. Decided to throw away, cut my losses and settle for a co-op meal deal. Disappointed all round.

Lovely pizzas, odd that the desserts didn't come with cream or ice cream

Wonderful food, best pizza my wife and I have ever had

Nous sommes venus 2 fois dans ce restaurant, une fois pour des pizzas à emporter et une deuxième fois sur place. Le personnel est très sympathique et accueillant mais nous avons été déçu lors de notre deuxième visite par la cuisine, le concentré de tomates utilisé dans les pâtes semble être le même que pour les pizzas et autant ça convient pour une pizza, autant pas pour des pâtes. La quantité est également un peu juste (pourtant nous ne sommes pas des grands mangeurs). Dommage pour cette 2eme expérience, si vous y mangez je vous recommande des pizzas mais pas autre chose.

Excellent food, served quickly & efficiently. Thank you!

We came as a family for my son's 7th birthday and ordered a seafood risotto, mussels, a capricciosa pizza for the adults, and two items off the kid's menus. The food was painfully slow to arrive (almost 1 hr), even though we arrived at 17.45 and well before rush hour, and there was only one or two other tables being served, and risotto being ordered (I expect a 25 min wait). The waitress was friendly and apologetic and her service was good, and so the 3/5 for service is a reflection of the slow food arriving. Fortunately the food was very good and the Napolitana style pizza very authentic. A Casa Mia really does specialize in pasta and pizza and there are little to no other options for typical secondi piatti found in most Italian restaurants. A word about the ambience: Not the best, the acoustics of the small room meant that it was difficult to hear what was being said over the conversation from the other tables. Would I go again? not to the restaurant but would definitely get a take-away pizza if I was in the area.

I’ve been here a lot & the service has never been less than exceptional, I would always recommend dinning here

Pleasant staff. Not too busy on a Monday evening

Lunchtime meal and a real treat. Genuine Napulitano resteraunt. Great service and atmosphere. Meatballs and potato starter was amazing along with a pasta and pizza main course. Sadly we are not local so can't come here as often as we might like to but highly recommended.

I was going to take my 5 & 9 year old granddaughters out for an early dinner, a table booked for us online. As the day progressed, 3 became 10 & as the restaurant doesn’t open till 5pm, our table booked for 5:45pm, cutting it fine to see if we could all book. In true Casa Mia style, they accommodated us all at short notice despite being fairly busy so early. The usual outstanding service from waiting staff, food as usual freshly cooked, delicious & hot. There’s a reason this is our go to restaurant, the welcoming team, the exceptional service, the lovely family vibe & great value for money. I don’t eat pizza, been all over Italy & pizza isn’t my thing but at Cada Mia, I eat pizza, outstanding!

Spent a lovely evening at A Casa Mia last week with my wife. Had two different courses each, all of which were really good, and left us with no room for a sweet. Fantastic service from Natalie and Freya helped make this a very special night for us.

Lovely food friendly staff well organised explained exactly what the dishes were really generous portions highly recommended

Great vera pizza, good service - awesome desserts!

I visited A Casa Mia as part of a weekend trip to Canterbury and the Kent Coast. The restaurant merits its high rating, with excellent staff and fantastic food. Like most people, I have eaten plenty of pizzas in my lifetime, and A Casa Mia's pizza is definitely up there amongst the best.

Hands down the best pizza in the UK

Came here for a meal while visiting Herne Bay for a few days. Lovely restaurants, amazing authentic pizzas, nice wines and lovely people - the ladies who served our meal were friendly and fun. Would definitely recommend.

Had a lovely meal and a wonderful evening. We loved watching our pizza being prepared and cooked too!

This family run restaurant has a lovely atmosphere. Husband really enjoyed his pizza but no Gluten Free options for myself 😢

Always a delight when we visit. They are so good with my son's allergies. He loves going to Casa Mia as they cater for his allergies which is brilliant as alot of other restaurants don't.

It's really great pizza. Quick service from polite and friendly staff. It's easily the best pizza in Herne Bay. I had the Diavola but tried the Marinara and Margherita too, and they were all spectacular. Soft drinks are served in the glass bottles as they should be. Had deserts too, which were of a similarly high standard Would definitely recommend it, but remember to book as even on a weekday early doors the place was still quite busy.

The first 2 or 3 times the pizza was excellent. Unfortunately, the last couple of times not so much. One pizza had hardly any cheese, (I don't like lots of cheese) but the cheese was barely there. The other pizza was on the crunchy side. I think the owner/pizza maker is overwhelmed and overworked. He needs to hire help or the restaurant will suffer for it. I hope they read the feedbacks and think about changes.

We have visited A Casa Mia many times. We keep going back because the food, service and atmosphere are just brilliant. Would definitely recommend if you haven’t yet tried it

What a shame. The service was very slow and the servers not very friendly. Mussels were disgusting. I used to visit regularly but expected better.

My friend and I made a last minute decision to visit this restaurant and booked a table online. We were welcomed on arrival. Staff were attentive. We ordered pizza and salad. All was great until we had been there for about an hour then staff shut up all the windows - It was very hot. By this time we were the only customers in the restaurant. It was obvious that the staff wanted to go home as they were standing by the till glancing our way. We felt uncomfortable so asked for our bill and left. It was only 9.30 and the restaurant had a 10pm closing time.

Booked a table for 8pm very friendly welcoming staff but by 9pm the music had been turned off and the window closed (it was a warm evening) the staff were lurking in the corner clearly waiting for us to leave. When we requested the bill...

Had a lovely meal tonight with good very attentive well trained staff supervised by Natalie who was excellent. All the food was 10/10 apart from the house merlot which was not good so I ordered a really nice bottle of red, very nice, resulting in a total meal cost of £155.50 for 4. I didn't complain about the poor house red but did complain about the £5.50 charge for a single portion of undercooked chips which nobody eat and when the table was cleared we reported to the staff. We then we're subjected to a lecture by the lady of the house who we all felt was very rude. Great food, great service but get rid of that lady who ruined the whole nights experience for £5.50 or at cost probably 50p at most

Great food and great staff. Lovely place to eat out.

Nice restaurant good service pleasant staff. Tasty pizza and pasta. But don’t expect any of the seafood you’ll see here in photos. There are no razor clams, vongole, shrimps or in fact anything from the sea. We were informed the chef has changed. I guess the new one is allergic to seafood 😂

I was so disappointed with this restaurant! I was told it's meant to be amazing, one of the best Italian restaurants outside of London. Well I was disgusted with the food. Firstly my pasta dish was tiny, just enough for a young child's portion and...

Delicious food but the menu does not offer much gluten free food. The garlic bread is the size of a pizza and is yummy!

Amazing food,beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff. Just great

Very nice pizza, a very friendly atmosphere the staff were excellent. We had a table of 14 and were very well looked after.

This is the third time that we have visited and thoroughly enjoyed it each time. The food is great and staff are helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend to all. On one visit, one dish of pasta wasn’t very warm. They replaced this with no...

Restaurant used for birthdays and anniversaries for a number of years but unfortunately no more. We wanted tagliatelle but they didn't have any!! so we had large pasta tubes with mussels not a very successful combination. Lot of the mussel shells were empty so we paid really for a lot of empty shells and pasta. WILL NOT DINE THERD AGAIN UNTIL

Had a perfect date night here. The food is incredibly authentic, with bold flavours and fresh ingredients. One of only a very small number of Italian restaurants I've visited in the UK where the food tastes just like it does in Italy. I had seafood...

This restaurant is the best restaurant in Herne Bay. The waitress Natalie is so on the ball and has things running like clockwork., and the food is second to none, Gino and Adam are brilliant chefs. Sadly I learnt that one of the restaurants old...

Proper Italian Pizza, reasonable prices, would go again.

Wonderful little restaurant with very attentive staff The only reason it's not 5 stars is the fact that I wasn't a fan of the seafood pasta I ordered

I agree with the last review what a lovely place reasonable price I was sitting near this couple the waitress made a small mistake and he raged like a wild animal the waitress is only a student looked like she was crying shame on this...

Fantastic staff and food. Atmosphere is amazing. Big respect to the manager for putting up with a rude customer up shouting in her face, for what seemed like an eternity. Will definitely be back. See you soon.
