Casa Bella Dining

We decided through The Entertainer app to come here. Booking was easy online and confirmation immediately. The place has a beautiful view and the ambiance is great. Food was good and the staff very friendly. Loved the little salted mini breads they served before your meal. What more do you want for a nice dinner!

We had a lovely evening here. Steaks were done to perfection. And I love the complimentary little fried bread they give. Service was a little slow unfortunately. If they speed it up a bit, this place would be a 5 star Italian restaurant. The staff were attentive and the manager is really nice

As we walked towards this establishment, we were met with smiles, we already had an idea that it would be an interesting experience. We approached the hostess and she was ever so welcoming I didn't manage to get her name, but wow! She ensured we were seated where we wanted to and reassured me that if I'm not comfortable I can move, which alone made me so content. FRANCIS the amazing waiter that assisted us, he noticed us be seated, and already had complimentary fritters when he came to introduce himself. We were in a bit of a hurry and had already studied the menu prior to arriving, so we knew what we wanted, and he ensured that our meals arrived quickly. The meals were executed to absolute perfection even though it had been prepared so quickly. I'm someone that faults things easily, but I left super satisfied. We made use of the ENTERTAINER app, and the staff ensured that everything was executed perfectly. I can go on, but words wouldn't do justice to the amazing experience we had, staff, food and ambiance gets a 10/10 from us! Go on and experience it for yourself

Tracy, the host is extremely welcoming and accommodating. Our waiter was very pleasant and paid alot of attention to detail. The food was superb and came out quite soon after having placed our order.

REVISION: 2/8/17 - from a previous visit which was exceptional to a now disaster visit....restaurant was quiet, yet our initial server seemed to have an attitude of note and refused to take our order, until we had to request a different waiter, once ordered the food came timeously, however - Long strand of hair deep fried into the chips!!! What the hell! This ended our meal abruptly. May take a long while to get over the disgust! Polar opposite of our last experience here. 1st VISIT: 21/06/17 - Most enjoyable meal here, best calamari starter I've had in Durban so far, and the Fillet Saltimbocca was something really special. Great attention to detail from the hostess as well, as she spotted our chocolate fondant was not quite perfect, from across the room, and promptly replaced it without us even asking.

First time visit at this restaurant and it was a great experience. The staff are attentive to your needs and requests. Head chef was making his rounds and asking on the food with a smile on his face. Food was great tasting. Filleto pizza was sweet and savory with decent amount of toppings. Veg pizza was good as well. Had the tiramisu milkshake and although it didn't taste anything like a tiramisu it was thick and delicious. Prices are that what you expect from an umhlanga location but worth it. Will be visiting again for their pastas and steaks.

Fantastic meal and attentive service! Grateful to have our first visit as a set menu offer to narrow down our choices on a menu full of our favourite dishes. The mussels starter is unmissable and the Alfredo unforgettable. We don't often do dessert, but the chocolate fondant is worth making space for!

Good food, good service, big portions, nice vibe. Will definitely come back. Quite a few vegetarian options available.

This Casa Bella is terrible. Food is a full on 2/10 - horrid pizza. Dry and tasteless. Weird because Casa Bella in Johannesburg has always been great. The Restaurant had not been cleaned for a long time. Tables have been left unattended for hours. Dirt lying all over the place. Waiter didn't come back with drinks for 10 minutes. Waiter brought condiments without appetizers and took 10 minutes to bring those along. Have seen 4 groups of people get up and leave without paying for their drinks after waiting in disappointment for their food. So very sad to see a place being so badly run. Its uncomfortable to be here to say the least and the staff are ill-equipped to handle their jobs here. Do not recommend coming here.

Good quality pizzas and pastas , probably one of the better views and store layouts in Umhlanga . Perfect to visit during late afternoon , so outside can be enjoyed . Service is generally quite good , and wood fired pizza is amazing . Pastas are cooked to taste and pizzas offer unique Flavours that are not easily offered in other pizza restaurants. worth a try .
