"I dined in the restaurant in December 2022 with some friends. I asked the waiter what I could order because I have a dairy allergy, he said I could order a pizza with vegan (dairy free) cheese on it, so this is what I ordered. The table then ordered some starters to share, so I asked if I could eat any of them that came out. The owner then said I could eat the garlic bread pizza, as it was olive oil spread that was used to make this. When I asked to see the packaging I saw this contained buttermilk, which I obviously could not have! So untrusting of what I could eat I decided not to eat any of the starters and wait for my dairy free pizza that I was assured would be safe for me to eat. When the main course arrived the waiter came out with one pizza first and said it was the dairy free one, which I took. Then once everyone had their meals I asked the waiter again, if this is the dairy free pizza to which he said yes. Taking the word of the staff I started to eat a small bit of the pizza, and quickly felt my lips hurting, so then checked again and the owner came out and said no it was the wrong pizza I had been given. Which after checking 5 times if this was going to be safe for me to eat, it was not! I then had to take some medication and leave the restaurant and had a bad allergic reaction when I got home. I can't get over how badly the restaurant dealt with my allergy and there is obviously no protocol in place to deal with someone with an allergy and staff not properly trained on this either. It's bad enough I had to miss out on my evening and next day too, with feeling unwell, but for someone else with an anaphylactic reaction this may have been their life. Allergies are very, very serious and this should be dealt with appropriately in this restaurant. They did not check on me after I left the restaurant to see if I was ok directly. When I contacted the restaurant afterwards they apologised and said I could go in for a free meal, which I have declined as I don't feel safe to do so. I sincerely hope they take this seriously in the future and revisit their protocols. Please be aware of this if dining here."

We were delighted to find Mamma Mia after a challenging day’s cycle touring. Very good food and service in their upstairs room. Desserts excellent.

We ate here on the strength of trip advisor reviews I wish we hadn’t. The restaurant was empty when we arrived I should have trusted my instincts walked away. At £15 for a bowl of spaghetti carbonara I expected some bread or...

The food was very good at a reasonable price. The service was pretty slow and infrequent though. I was starving after a day of sightseeing, and desperately wanted some bread, but the waiter forgot and our food was almost out by the time my wife... View menu

W went one Wednesday lunch time after receiving a friend's recommendation. The service is good, the food delicious but a little pricy. Three starters, three main courses and 4 soft drinks was £82.50. We recommend the food but study the price list.

We were warmly welcomed by the owner/manager and staff and shown to a table by the window. We shared a bruschetta starter and then we both had saltimbocca followed by a chocolate dessert for him and a really lovely lemon dessert for me, followed by...

We were staying in the area for the night and struggled to find a local restaurant which was dog friendly. We opted for takeaway pizzas instead and so glad we did best pizza we’ve had in a long time. The staff were very helpful and friendly. If we are ever visiting the area again we will definitely be back. View menu

I had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at this restaurant! The staff were attentive and friendly, and the food was heavenly. From the starters to the dessert, every bite was better than the last. We tried various options ranging from vegetarian dishes to meat options, and everything was a hit. Thank you, Mamma Mia, for a delightful dinner!

We came for dinner on a Friday night, looking forward to trying somewhere new while we were visiting Banchory. When we arrived we were surprised at the size of the restaurant, it is small and looked more like a takeaway than somewhere for dinner. It was also very quiet with only one other table occupied. When ordering our food we asked if they could make us a plain tomato pasta as there was no dairy/meat free options. We were immediately told no and offered options containing cream and meat which we explained we couldn’t eat. We asked for the special without the aubergine but we’re also told no as the meals were all ‘pre-made’. We were then offered a pizza which we decided to decline as it b...
