Casa Mia


Yes!!!! Finally, Casa Mia decided to share one of their best signature dishes –The Greek Salad-on their Barrielicious winter menu.  I have to be honest; I eat this salad 3-4 times a month.  Every time I enter this establishment I repeat the mantra, “I will try something different”; I never do; why I torment myself I don’t know as this establishment, hands down, has the best Greek Salad.
In fairness, my loyalty to this salad has prevented me from trying other Greek salads from other establishments in Barrie for the last 2 years.  I am open to the challenge so please suggest your best!

What makes this salad so great; perhaps it’s the perfect balance of feta cheese atop of their homemade dressing which finishes each bite with a hint of dill.  The best part is the abundance of the fresh crispy iceberg lettuce which is used. Yummmo! ; And of course garnished with your onion tomato cucumber and olive.
I did not attend Casa Mia’s winter Barrielicious last year because they did not offer their Greek salad; and let’s face it if I’m going to try something new I wanted to incorporate that salad somehow. Don’t get me wrong I have tried many items from their menu but always in the form of a bite size.  I will never dine alone ;)

Casa Mia in Italian means, “My House” and boy have they mastered those 2 words.  If I’m not mistaken I believe they are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year!! 
Without a doubt this establishment provides the best homemade Mediterranean comfort food around.  Their homemade sauces and salad dressings consistencies are next to none.  If you’re feeling like something you can’t buy in a store, try something from the Casa Mia Winery. Using only carefully selected foreign grapes, they have created a fantastic wine that goes great with any Casa Mia dish. The atmosphere has an authentic, Mediterranean look and feel.

I began my meal with the Caesar salad….kidding….the Greek salad which rolled into the juiciest pork souvlaki drizzled in their homemade lemon-herb sauce with a side of spaghetti.  The portions are generous and filling.  Dessert: Baklava; One word: Authentic!

The staff is attentive, friendly and they are proficient in their product knowledge; truly a dynamite team.
If you don’t feel like cooking at home; then come to this home and be cooked for.
Happy Anniversary Casa Mia……

P.S.  I’d like to order a large Greek salad to go!  Never mind I’ll do it online J
