Went for the Gluten Free showcase and it was incredible!! All five courses were amazing and plentiful. Dining set up was family style and initially I was a little nervous was I’m a bit of a shy person but the atmosphere was lovely and we made friends with the people we were sitting with. It made for a much more enjoyable dining experience. As it was family style we all shared the platters of food that were laid out on our table and there was more than enough food for each course. At $55 a head the price was more than reasonable if not cheap for the abundance of food provided as well as a free drink on arrival.
First course was antipasto platter, with bread for the table and bowls of beautiful tapenade. Second course was four different types of pastas and each one was absolutely delicious! Third course was four different pizzas and of course they were so good. Fourth course was roasted vegetables and seafood platter with salmon, mussels, scallops and pipis which were all cooked beautifully. Desert was a very wide and generous selection of pastries, panna cottas, mousses, cheesecake and profiteroles! Needless to say there was so much delicious food and you could even ask to take the leftovers home with you.
As a first ever visit to this restaurant I was more than impressed. I will be dining here again! And if there are more of these showcases I’ll be the first in line to book a spot!
We eat here about once a week and everything is delicious
Great restaurant friendly staff love love love the food! The daily specials are aweosme! We can’t get enough of this place it’s our new fav!
Great dinner on Friday for my daughters birthday
We love everything, pasta, pizza and salad.
I personally love GF option!! As a chef and celiac person I noticed they take take very well if you. You have all information you need about dishes!!! Good job guys!!! Excellent customer service!!! Fantastic experience
Service was excellent, food was above average. Ok Italian, good for a shopping centre. Arancini balls were all good, bruschetta a bit too much cream cheese not enough tomato. Pasta’s were pretty good, dessert was excellent.
After seeing videos from the we love brunch event on instagram, my girlfriends and I decided to give this place a go. Boy were we impressed! Cocktails are tasty and very reasonably priced (will have to come back for happy hour!!!), service was flawless (shoutout to Breanna!) and food was perfectly balanced (try the wagu salad!). Such an unexpected gem in Chermside shopping centre.
We stopped in for a quick refreshment after shopping in the centre on Sunday evening and chose to stay for a meal. We had a proseco to start with while we looked at the menu. The share board sounded too good to pass up - $12pp and great value. A serve of focaccia with oil and balsamic to share allowed us to use all the moreish whipped ricotta on the share board.
Mains were the half chicken and I had the spaghetti with prawn in fennel butter- so good. We had a glass of sparkling after that.
Really full after our dinner we decide to have something sweet at home but saw some of the other diners desserts as we left- they looked good! Service was efficient and not over done. Great spot with an upstairs where we chose to sit on the veranda with a view.
Casa Cibo is such a good addition to Westfield Chermside’s dining precinct!
Pros:
- restaurant ambience both internal and external is top notch
- waiters and waitresses are very friendly
- beautiful bar layout upstairs; highly recommend to book a table there if you can
- love love love the woodfired pizzas and pastas. We’ve ordered caprisioca, Quattro formago and chicken pizza and lamb ragu and clam pastas and all of them were such a delight to eat!! All were gone by the end of the night after 6 adults munching of them!
- entree size pasta is enough serving for even 2 adults trust me 👌🏼
Cons: (not much, this place is that good!)
- how I wish they have more of the classic Italian pastas such as carbonara and more meaty selection for pizzas
- they should include soft drink/ beer names and prices and dessert on the same menu
Tip: book ahead 😉
Overall, we will definitely come back and try out your other meals!!
A new addition to the new food precinct at chermside westfield. This place was very inviting and had a good menu list with something a little different to each dish when compared to other italian restaraunts around. when going to an italian restaraunt for the first time we always try a pizza and a pasta. we had the 4 cheese pizza and it was 👌👌👌. the base held very well , fresh dough taste and topping spread nicely so every bite had all the flavours. The pasta was good overall a little bland but the pizza was the stand out for me. will come back again. 👍.

3.5/5 for food, 4/5 for experience and service and the high variety of gluten free options
pollo arrosto (chicken pizza) on their gluten free base. chicken was definitely a let down. it was quite dry (as i’m sure they used the chicken breast). the base itself was decent although i usually prefer a thicker, crispier crust. the chilli and capsicum were nice additions but they unfortunately didn’t help disguise how plain and flavourless the chicken was. not a fave and if i come here again i would definitely order a different pizza
berry cheesecake (gluten free) was a great treat and imo worth its price. the only downside was the meringue which tasted burnt instead of toasted :( the base was also a lot less crunchier than usual cheesecakes although that’s most likely because it’s gluten free and used almond meal (or something similar) instead of biscuits. still, i love cheesecakes, and i liked this berry cheesecake. it was a good portion to split between 2
1L orange cocktail (forgot the name, can’t find menu here) - tastes a lot like orange/citrus juice with a teeny bit of alcohol added. even though i had more than half i wasn’t tipsy or anything. great addition to the meal
service was friendly and the atmosphere and decor here is lovely. they even have a lift! i would criticise some of the architecture just because on the way up to the stairs it is possible to drop things into the kitchen area and that just bothers me in terms of cleanliness etc
My friend and I visited Casa Cibo on one of the first days it was open. We had a delicious meal and were particularly impressed by the pizza and dessert. The service was very friendly and I loved the grand design of the restaurant - it didn’t feel like we were dining at Chermside. I am definitely eager to return!
Fantastic atmosphere! Decided to stop in for a bit as this place was crowded! Nothing like sheep and following the herd! Food was good and tasted amazing! However price for quantity was disappointing. nice selection of wines and beers.
This place is a great new addition to Chermside! Had the lamb ragu and it was amazing! It just melts in your mouth! We tried a few of the pizzas too, loved the arancini and topped it off with one of their HUGE desserts! SO good, can't wait to go back!
Casa Cibo is my favourite local Italian place! Well priced with amazing food in good portion sizes. Their $15 pizza pasta deal is especially great value! Service is exceptional - even when they're super busy. The staff have always been charming and helpful.
Decided to give this restaurant a second chance and it was a big improvement on my last visit. I had the crispy skin salmon which was very tasty. My mum had the chicken which she said was ok it just needed more seasoning. Food overall was nice but a bit overpriced. Staff are friendly.
I ordered a sirloin and was excellent quality. The vegetables was a couple of carrot rings and potato pieces. I enjoyed the meat but they could have left the veggies out. I liked the idea to order and pay through the app on the tables. The table was not cleared from empty plates and glasses. It was an enjoyable night.
Food was great, lunch pasta special came really quickly and tasted great. The QR menu does need adjusting so people can make vegetarian option etc though. Didn’t have a button/tick for that instead you have to order at the counter.
We had a wonderful Melbourne Cup Luncheon. The food was fresh and very delicious. Casa Cibo staff were helpful and the event was run smoothly.
Had dinner here on Saturday night. The venue was lovely and our waitress Ellen looked after us really well, however the food was not great. Pasta came out cold and hard and rice was under cooked. Service and drinks however were were great. A good place to get drinks with friends but maybe not to eat.
I took my sister to Casa Cibo the other day and it is our new favourite Italian restaurant. The staff were welcoming and interactive and the food was delicious. We even went for a little look upstairs where they had a range of function areas which would be amazing for a birthday dinner or celebration. I would recommend this restaurant for anyone who is looking for a warm traditional Italian meal and kind, warm-hearted service.
