Casa Mia Restaurant and Cocktail Bar in Caerphilly

The wait staff were lovely, the food was delicious and the drinks were very tasty. One concern though, we ordered a starter, a table close by ordered the same, their's had extra bread. I passed it off as it wasn't a big deal. But then I ordered the penne spezzatino and so did the table next to me. Mine had tiny cubes of beef in it, the table next to us had a piece of steak, sliced on top of the pasta. I heard both tables order, no one asked for any changes or extras so couldn't figure out why the same dishes were different across the tables?

A very enjoyable evening for a family party.

Excellent food and friendly staff. All our meals were awesome. We will definitely come again

Went to casa Mia today lovely service. Food was lovely I had the lamb my friend and vegetarian peppers which looked lovely and she said tasted lovely.

Went on Friday lunch time with my daughter and husband very nice food excellent staff Nicky and Vicky will definitely be going back thank you

Welsh menu was delicious - would come back just for the cawl!

Driving through Caerphilly and Called at 5:30pm on a Saturday on the off chance for some lunch to see if they had a table for two, they accommodated and said we could have a. Table in 10 minutes. On arrival it was happy hour on the cocktails so the Mrs was happy 2 for £15. We ordered starters and mains. Wife had a prawn cocktail, I had belly pork with a sticky bourbon sauce. The wife said it was the best prawn cocktail she’d ever had. Belly pork was good. I was lucky on mains as there was only 1 fillet steak left and so grateful as it was stunning. The wife had chicken tarragon, both meals were beautiful. The waiters and waitresses were working hard yet always happy and professional. A little gem of a place with a great view of the castle. We will be going back.

Well........ We were a hen party of 12 or 13, we had lovely Welcoming as soon as we got in the room, had delicious food, i had the mixed meat paella 10/10. Cocktails were spot on andwell presented, toilets were very clean, we had a beautiful view, the staff were fab and treated us well x So, well done Casa Mia. And Thank you for a lovely time, See you in the near future x

Had a lovely meal last night, .fixed meal paella, staff were lovely, cocktails 🍸 👌. Thank you all for a lovely evening, I will be back soon.

Super food and a warm welcome. The seafood paella and pork belly were especially good. The staff were very cheery and clearly enjoyed their work. Only passing through Caerphilly but I'd be back like a shot if possible.

4 for lunch today and the food was great especially the starter antipasta. The service was great too as was the bottle of shiraz and coctails

Service was absolutely incredible. Felt like royalty as soon as we walked in the atmosphere was amazing and the food was phenomenal. It’s very hard to find a fine dining restaurant that’s local that offer a verity or different foods and cultured backgrounds. I can positively say we will be returning and we will be highly recommending

Very good food, courteous and helpful staff with a great view overlooking the castle.

Came with my hubby for my 60th birthday. Pleasant surroundings, and friendly staff. The view from the large window is amazing. Food and drinks served promptly and well presented. The paella was delicious. Followed by a great tasting Lemon tart. The deserts menu is a board with all the items on, so you can actually see what you will be getting, great idea!!! Will visit again

Visited Casa MIa for a friend’s 50th Birthday. We had to pre order our food prior to the evening as there were quite a few of us.. this wasn’t a problem.. starters arrived for those who ordered them and looked really nice.. Main courses arrived once the starters had been eaten.. Mine and my husbands main was lovely and of a good size too!! The staff were pleasant enough although I did feel like we were being rushed to eat then leave.. maybe they had more bookings and needed our table?? On a whole it was a good experience and would recommend the food here.. we will return as a couple next time though!

Really nice food but the staff make the evening. Always on hand and really friendly. I would definitely recommend it, even if you choose just to go for a drink.

Food was OK, nothing special, I had bolognese, tasted fine but not wow. Small portion size. When we were there, they had a singer who although was alright, it was just too loud and we couldn't chat across the table. Why can't singers just be back ground music. That spoilt the evening in my opinion.

Just come back from afternoon tea for 7 people. I can’t recommend them enough - I’ve had afternoon tea here before and it’s always excellent quality, plenty of food and drinks including soft drinks and a very good price. Service also excellent I’d like to also add if the restaurant are reading this that I’m so sorry I didn’t leave a tip! I was distracted with going to get the car to make sure my mother in law didn’t have to struggle walking that I paid the remainder and left to get the car! I feel really bad, I always tip and even had cash ready. Especially when we get good service. I’ll definitely be back before too long so will give you double next time

Tasty food from the Sunday menu. I can recommend the lamb cutlets. Cheerful and unhurried service from the Waiters, all with the added bonus of gorgeous castle views.

Trendy, good food, good service , if you haven't been, book and go.

Great location and nice restaurant theming. It overlooks Caerphilly castle with a wall-size window which is amazing. Desserts were good, but main course food wasn't anything special. I had a lasagne as my main and it was like something from Wetherspoons- the tomato sauce was deceptively watery and it didn't have much of a flavour to be honest. Edible but nothing special. Luckily it came with a salad which provided some much needed taste. I would've gone for the Linguine Carbonara if I'd known.

Disappointed. Overpriced for the quality of food, service and atmosphere - chairs uncomfortable, the cushion worn and down to the board. We were looking forward to some fresh seafood however there is no doubt it was frozen and not fresh. We asked a few questions about the food but staff had no idea and quite clumsy (although polite). Very loud and difficult to have a conversation. Good view of the castle but would not go back.

Fabulous tapas menu. Prompt and friendly service. The most amazing view.

Lovely atmosphere super friendly staff food excellent and service very good ..what's not to like x

Lovely evening last Friday. Sure we'll be back.

Great food, great staff, great view, great company

I went here today as I wanted a drink. I thought the place was smart and was going back for a meal at a different time. Then when I paid for my drink. I overheard a staff member complaining/moaning to another staff member. That I only had a drink she sounded disgusted that I would dare to order just a drink. She said it a few times. How I went in there and just had a drink like it wasn't allowed or it wasn't worth the effort. So rude. Made me feel small. Never going back. Shame on you.

Staff were very helpful and polite,service was great

Always top service wonderful staff

Food quality was very high and the view of the castle was lovely.

The food was a 10/10 and the service was super good it only took 20 minutes to get the food!

Had the fried halloumi (it was perfect) the mixed meat paella (to die for) and the raspberry tiramisu (my new guilty pleasure). The 3 course meal price, very reasonable.

The views, oh the views. I find it Casa Mia a little hit and miss - sometimes everything is excellent, other times a few dishes can be off the mark. The sangria isn't very good at all. But the service is good and usually efficient and the views over Caerphilly Castle are unbeatable, although annoying that you cannot book a specific table (e.g. window seat) for a special occasion.

Lovely food hand in hand with lovely service. Highly recommended!

First visit will definitely return. Service excellent food delicious. Setting lovely. Impressed by the service, staff really attentive and friendly.

Excellent quality food at brilliant prices. There were 4 of us and we all enjoyed it, will be going back very soon

I have had to rewrite the Casa Mia because of the food portions are getting smaller and smaller every time me and my partner go in there for food I normally have pasta with something when my girlfriend has his it is a quite a lot when I have mine this week in 2024 it was literally a handful of pasta and while me and my girlfriend was talking I said to be oh your portion looks big in a mine this time she says yes my is a lot bigger than yours I'm pretty sure your portions are getting smaller and smaller every time we come in here and I'm not having to go but I am just saying I know I'm on a diet but I wish the portions of food will stop getting so small for that pasta with something it costs me £10 and when I finished eating it I always feel more hungry I'm not a big eater and I have been on a day at since last year so so I need them to sort that out stop giving us small portions of food and every time we ask or I've had a small portion can we have it more please she or he always says oh you'll have to buy an I never played for well I don't want to play another one just give me more portion of the thing so making the food less and less and less have ever go to the green lady to have a popping meal and this is true

Myself & my girlfriend popped here for the lunch menu . On arrival it was a very warm welcome. The staff were very good and very friendly. Very relaxing atmosphere and was nice to be able to sit and have a chat and not be asked every 5 mins is everything OK with your meal. We both had soup of the day, which was sweet potato soup that had a tiny kick of heat . For the main my girlfriend had the seabream & I had muscles & chips with a white wine & garlic sauce, the sauce was beautiful 😋. The desert toffee profiteroles cheese cake was absolutely delicious too 😋. The view overlooking Caerphilly Castle is amazing too. The lunchtime menu is very good value for the quality of food I will definitely be going back !!!

Best steak ive had in years. I'd book in advance though as ive tried a few times to get a reservation on the day and not succeeded. Will be back soon!

Brilliant over Christmas, never laughed so much....Great atmosphere...staff very friendly from management, servers, kitchen and bar staff...all contributed to make that experience 10x better

Nice restaurant in the town centre with an amazing view on the castle. The service was good and the price of the set lunch menu is quite good, but since it’s an Italian restaurant I was exercising a different selection of dishes, would have liked a couple more traditional choices for the mains and dessert. Anyway would recommend it for a quick bite while you’re visiting the city.

Gorgeous food and friendly service

The food is always nice and great value - Sunday lunch is the best in town..

I recently dined at Casamia Restaurant in Wales, and I can't praise it enough! This establishment truly deserves a solid 5-star rating. What struck me immediately was their remarkable dedication to catering for all dietary needs, with an abundance of gluten-free options that were both delicious and safe for those with sensitivities. But what truly sets Casamia apart is their exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond, providing superb attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect of the dining experience was perfect. If you're looking for a restaurant that combines culinary excellence with impeccable customer care, Casamia is the place to be.

Lovely restaurant with fabulous vires- my favourite

Nice restaurant with a friendly team. We were there on a very busy Saturday evening which meant drinks and food order wasn't taken for almost 30 minutes. But apart from that it was a nice place to go to celebrate a special occasion or just have an evening meal. Great location, handy parking, good views of the castle. Food was very nice.

Had the sea bass which was cooked to perfection it came with a tasty lemon sauce

Loved it! Pre booking is advised as it is a popular place. Service was quick and efficient although it was busy. Food was amazing with reasonable prices. 👍👍

Brilliant view. Lovely food with decently sized mains, polite staff. Very reasonably priced lunch menu

Had lunch here for our Anniversary. Beautiful view of the castle. Food was served quickly, was very tasty and good size portions. Very good value for money.

Absolutely the best pizza I've eaten since leaving the States 5 years ago.

Lovely food, good service, nice atmosphere

You have an amazing view of the castle while here, the food is great.

Absolutely amazing food and cocktails. Great menu selection. Seabass was delicious, plus the cocktails were fantastic. Would highly recommend.

Service was really good and fast. The views were really nice. Food was fine.

Staff were very welcoming for a family event I was attending. The food was excellent and good value for money, and the view of the castle was a great bonus!

Went for bottomless brunch, party of 6 ppl for a birthday, sadly had a bad experience, were told we couldn't top up our glasses we had to wait until empty, even though it was a bottomless brunch, told same again when ordering cocktails, which were to weak and watery to drink, when we complained I wasn't taken to well!!we then complained about portion size on how small the mains were again staff lovely but complaint not taken well, we were given a couple bottles if prosecco, but felt that at £36 a head we expected more, when we continued to complain we were told by one of the staff that they had spoken to the manager which we couldn't and he had told her to tell us to leave, everything was then taken off our table and we had to simply leave? Is this how you handle complaints at your establishment? I have to say the staff were lovely, helpful and simply following direcrion. My food even though to small tasted lovely. I just the overall experience was bit of a shock to beasjed to leave for simply complaining.

Food was good, felt a little rushed with starters being cleared very promptly. Great view of Caerphilly castle

This is probably the best restaurant that I have visited for a few years. The food was excellent, the 10oz ribeye steak was awesome and cooked to perfection, the sea bass was also great. The best cheesy garlic bread I've seen and the service was spot on. A bit pricey and large parties have to book meal choices in advance but it was well worth it as the speed of delivery was highly efficient and quick to all members of our party. Would highly recommend. Good job!

great service, beautiful widow and delicious food. we recommend😀

Good service, nice food, great lunch

Food was fantastic, drinks lovely, live music was shockingly good. They catered to our 2 year old so well. And the view of course is amazing.

It's OK but for me nothing special

Food and service was great, fantastic view if you can get by the window, decor is a bit tired

Another fabulous Italian restaurant in Caerphilly town centre. Cannot fault the food in all fairness. The view from the restaurant is amazing. It looks down over the town and castle. It lacks atmosphere to be honest. Restaurant floor feels to much like a cafe and not a restaurant butdon't let that put you off

Lovely views of Caerphilly Castle. Very disappointed in the quality and content of the afternoon tea. Staff very friendly and attentive.

Went there last night, service food and views are amazing and topped it off with live music, highly recommend

Just had our first meal at Casa Mia restaurant. Service was excellent, as was the food, we went in for the mid week lunch menu, but after seeing the menu opted for the 3 course meal. We were not disappointed, the food was gorgeous and plenty of it.The views of the castle from the restaurant are fabulous. Would thoroughly recommend this restaurant, what an asset to the town. Thank you very much to all the staff..!!

Had a really nice meal, the food was excellent and the staff were lovely.

Food was nice but nothing special. Service was friendly and attentive. The views were brilliant.

Great atmosphere food was just amazing and staff could not help you enough. Definitely will be returning.

Booked for 6 pm with a 2 hour turn time, normally wouldnt be an issue except it was impossible to get staff's attention. After being sat by one lady we asked for some water and asked for her to come back to take a drinks order after wed had a chance to look. This member of staff didnt return so the order was taken by a different lady. After 20 minutes we were still waiting for the drinks, which unfortunately ended up coming the same time as the food. Straight away we see some hair on the plate so we called a waitress to address the issue, she took the plate back to be remade however didn't do anything with my friend's meal, which got cold waiting for the replate (as we obviously would like to eat our food together at the same time). When we were done and ready to leave, we tried to get the manager and another lady's attention 6 times but they didn't respond as they were chatting and the music was loud. Finally the bill came with no apology for the poor service and issues we had, and no money was taken off (just some form of gesture of good will like taking £4 off for chips or something). Yet another different server asked us for payment at which point we tried to speak to her about our dissatisfaction, but she walked off before we could even finish, which was quite rude. The Manager came over and sat down unprofessionally and with very condescending attitude stated: "we dealt with your issue and replaced the food. If you wanted hers redone you should have asked us to redo it but you didn't so this is the bill. How would you like to pay". This whole experience was incredibly off-putting and soured what should have been a stress free evening. We should not have to tell you how to do your jobs, but we also work in the service industry and would be mortified to have our guests treated this way - the second meal should also have been replaced so that we could enjoy a hot meal together. During the time we were there we also witnessed 3 meals get sent back to the kitchen with complaints, while another guest had to take hers to the bar as she could not get any attention from the waiting staff. We both work in a premium brand restaurant so we understand good service, and this was not it. We will not be returning and definitely recommend people go elsewhere for their dining experiences.

Small portion size did not help, food was nice but not 5 star.

My food was amazing... Really friendly staff....the view of the Castle and surrounding area...unforgettable..

Always good food. Service excellent. Lovely place.

Great place to eat. food was very tasty and we'll priced and the staff couldn't do more for you.

Fabulous food, dreadful service. Annoyingly our favourite restaurant and has been since before it moved up town. Tonight though, wow! After 10 minutes we were finally offered drinks and they arrived with the starters; garlic mushrooms and deep-fried halloumi, delicious. The main courses of lasagna, salad and a medium sirloin were perfect. Utterly faultless and washed down with a splendid Pinot Noir. Once the plates were removed, in a relatively un-busy restaurant, we were never troubled again. No offer of dessert, coffee or further drinks. In the end we gave up and found someone behind the bar to make up our bill. Found dessert elsewhere on the way home.

Great place for an Italian meal or Sunday roast with the best view in town 👍

Thank you John and all the staff at Casamia for the amazing experience you gave both my family and our friends on our kids first holy communion day. The food and the service were second to none. The cocktails were amazing as you can see we did enjoy a few of them lol. So huge thanks from all of us. Can’t wait to come back. 👍👍👍👍

Lovely place, fantastic food with gorgeous view

Lovely views friendly staff. Food good

Ah man, I don't know where to begin with this place! So, you walk up the stairs to be greeted by friendly staff as you enter a beautiful restaurant. It's not too upscale where you can feel out of place, but this isn't your chain-restaurants either. Then you pop a right, then BAM! You're looking from the second story right at Caerphilly castle, and it is stunning! I loved the tour of the castle, but to sit there enjoying your meal, and admire it from there was quite wonderful. And the food! Oh man the food was great! There was 6 of us. 2 vegans, 1 vegetarian and 3 omnivores. And everyone loved their meals. We were each sampling each other's, and even the meat eaters enjoyed the vegan options! The staff were very friendly and were there promptly if you needed anything. The price for everything was actually quite reasonable. We were expecting to pay more, especially for what we got. We all left very satisfied.

Sunday roast was terrible. Not sure what the poor cow did to deserve this but it has suffered for its sins.

Excellent service ; fantastic selection of food , piping hot, amazing flavours , very fast especially considering how many large parties they had in. As other reviews , the view was great, you don't usually see the castle from above but I forgot all about it once I tasted the food. The only one downside was the Sangria which was quite weak, didn't really taste like authentic Sangria which we have become accustomed to.

Go for the view, stay for the food! A warm welcome and excellent service from the staff. Quick food and good quality at a reasonable price. Lovely chilled atmosphere. The view is stunning. I will be back with my family for the afternoon tea.

I took my Mother for lunch here today for the first time. There was a lovely atmosphere and the staff were attentive and friendly. Mam's chips were slightly under cooked, they were taken away with an apology and fresh ones returned very quickly. The food was lovely and reasonably priced. We will definitely be back.

Went here with family for my 60th the food was amazing and amazing service would recomend and will definitely go again 😀

Lunchtime meal today Excellent food and great service Will certainly visit again

Came for lunch, our server Nicky was extremely attentive and helpful, would certainly recommend.

A firm favourite, and if you like Italian food, it'll be a favourite for you too. The whole experience is brilliant throughout, from the welcome to the thank you, see you soon. Very highly recommended

Everything is really good in this restaurant! Food, view, atmosphere, location and especially the excellent service. Don't change anything!

We visited casa Mia this evening for the first time. Amazing food, fabulous service , great wine. We will definitely visit again thank you team Casa Mia x

Lovely food, very attentive staff! Highly recommended

Lovely meals and service tonight,will definitely be back.

Visited on a Friday night, so noisy, wanted to walk out but felt bad as we had booked late and had the last slot available. Waitresses were lovely and did not rush us. Not a long wait for food to be fair considering the amount of people and nicely presented. However the food was not so good. My husband had the seabass which was swimming in sauce and a measley amount of chips. He said the seabass was nice but the strong sauce over powered it. I had the chicken skewers, which looked beautiful but was very dry, the Mediterranean rice had clearly been under a lamp and was hard on top again with a measley amount of chips. We both very disappointed with the meal which was a birthday celebration but at least the dog ate well when we got home as I took half the chicken with me.

Amazing place food was outstanding. And service could not be faulted

Great everything you need about food and view is here.

I love the place. Always a pleasure going there and such beautiful food. And Always clean there. The manager is great

Went for Sunday lunch so a limited menu Staff very polite and helpful

Disappointing menu, I fancied fish and there was only Bass on offer. Only 1 choice of dessert that was dairy-free. Service was good but there was a live singer which was VERY loud and we could hardly hear ourselves speak - not really what you want in a restaurant when you're trying to have a chat over a meal. Lovely view over the castle if you're lucky enough to get a table facing the right way (which we didn't).
