La Casina Restaurant Dunsborough

We had bad food here before, We came back when we heard it has changed owners, the food is top class. Good quality local produce.

We've been to this restaurant years ago when it was still Italian and said never would I come back as the food was disgusting and poor quality. We tried it again when we heard it changed owners, all the dishes we had were absolutely delicious, fresh and wholesome. The service was lovely. Winelist is carefully selected. We're now regulars. We love it.

Had a friend's surprise birthday here. Waitress helped us sneak in the cake. Great service delicious food, great portions. (We had leftovers and they let us take it home) had a great night:)

Was recommended to dine here and we were excited to try it yet all 4 of us found our pastas subpar. The wine and bread and atmosphere was lovely despite the rain. Friendliness in service was also lacking

This place was a must every time we visited the area. Unfortunately they changed owners in 2020 and the menu items are much cheaper and so is the quality of the food and also the service. Wasn’t greeted with the usual homely Italian enthusiasm at the door, which is why I returned here time after time.
No longer a 5 star rating for me

Entree-sized portions for main meals prices. We had a cured meats platter ($30) as one of the main meals and it had 8 very thin slices of different hams (including mortadella which is one of the cheapest ones), a small tub of olives and a small tub of pickled veg. The eggplant tagine and roasted potatoes were very average, I can cook a much tastier version at home. Staff was friendly but overall the whole dining experience was very dissappointing. Will not be going back or recommend to others.

Super authentic as much as my Nona's kitchen. Definately Mediterranean! Top compliments to the cooks. 5-stars and would have given 6 but the wait staff slightly let it down - they are under the pump I know, but should really engage with guests in regards to the food that are being served, maybe recommendations or explain the dishes etc. Really recommend this place if you're looking for a comfortable warm vibe and not the post clinical type like the wineries.

Amazing flavours and delicious food. Love the restaurant. Laid back and nice atmosphere. Service was very good and attentive. Good price points. Not overpriced.

Underwhelming, overpriced, very small meals and if falafel salad is Italian I’m seriously concerned. No bread with $30 antipasto plate, $8 for 4 small slices of bread, no sugo in the so called ragout, (mince not chunky meat) cold, reheated gnocchi. Get back to basics guys, good sugo, thin fresh meats and simple Italian salad and don’t forget bread and included in price.

Great menu with extensive vegan options! We enjoyed the house wines, the pasta was absolutely delicious and the staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend and come back here again.

I went with my gf 2 weeks ago and the place is nice, the wine excellent, the staff is friendly. We got disappointed with the food, the taste was just ok, the portion of the dishes is really small. We had one nibble the marinated sardines, bucatini (flat taste) and which supposed to be large plate, the beef cheeks and two glass of wine. We paid over 80 only for that and we were hungry, literally we flee from that place to eat something more.
Btw: we’re two small individuals so we don’t have a big appetite

The food here was fantastic. The lamb shoulder fell apart in your mouth. The setting is a beautiful rustic forest setting. Enjoyed eating here and will definitely come again next time I'm in the area.

The food, service, and atmosphere was all top notch! Will definitely be back next time I'm down that way:)

A bit too pricey. Food was good. Kids pizza was amazing. They should really offer pizzas for adults too.:)

Start to finish the besf Italian feed we've ever had. Entree, main and dessert all brilliant. Great setting and service.

Very lovely place. We stopped for lunch and it was wonderful. Do not be put off by the lack of people in there, definitly worth a visit!

A lovely little place with friendly service but overpriced in comparison with the other options nearby. If you’re in the mood for decent, homemade pasta then go on a Wednesday when pastas are on special!

So very delicious plus friendly relaxed staff. We had 3 courses. I felt like I might have been on holiday in Italy for that short time. It was the first night of our holiday and what a fabulous way to begin.and a bonus, what brought us there was a voucher from the Entertainment book.

Should have got a pizza, they looked good, the pasta i got was really rich and hard to finish, but nice service!

Fantastic! Loved absolutely everything about this place. The restaurant is really gorgeous and in a lovely location. Waiter was totally fabulous, friendly and super attentive. Food was delicious and authentic. Couldn't fault it, just wish we lived closer so it could be our regular spot to eat Don't take any notice of the bad reviews, you always get whingers who are either never happy wherever they go or are looking for a freebie or are just compulsive complainers
