Villa Maria Ristorante Italiano

We stopped in Carstairs for dinner tonight on our way back from Red Deer heading to Nanton as there was a big storm on highway 2 and we were on the bikes. Came across this place on Main Street and decided to give it a try. Was definitely a great decision. Food was absolutely delicious. Owner was super friendly. Well worth the short detour off #2.

Excellent service staff Great tasting food.

We were greeted and seated by the owner Danny, who is absolutely charming. Authentic Italian food was great, our server was outstanding...all in all, love this place. ps: the restroom was sparkling clean

Delicious Italian food, good service, good drinks.
Could use beer on tap.

Food and service is truly amazing.. the only downfall of this restaurant is picking what to eat as its all so good

Great food & hospitality will definitely be back!

Food was very good , overall good experience. Owner Danny is an awesome guy. We enjoyed everything we ordered

Drove here from out of town, heard great things. And was super underwhelmed... the vibe was cute. But the food does not match the vibe what so ever. They had bruschetta for 5 dollars and it was legit ONE slice of tiny bread with a few toppings. The pasta I ordered with my chicken parm was 8 dollars more, and it tasted like jarred sauce. And no taste. I didn't even eat it. The best part was the vegetables. Done to perfection.

Great service and amazing food!

What a fabulous experience! Well worth the drive to Carstairs. The male owner is in charge of the front of house and Maria is in charge of the kitchen and all the homemade pasta.

Every dish was delicious and prepared in an attractive manner. The portions were large and reasonably priced.

We made a reservation but were laughing because we were the only people in the place.............but then the customers started to arrive and by the time we were done our meal every table was full.

Lots of variety to choose from on the menu and the owner is a fabulous host.
