“ Another excellent brunch experience offered by server Jose. He always remembers our favorite drink, the Bellini, which is the best in town. Today we enjoyed Eggplant Parmigiana and the Roasted Beets and Goat Cheese Salad. All entrees always excellent and well presented. Thank you Jose for always taking care of us. We will always come back to see you at Mia Bella. ”
“ My server, Andres, was amazing! Very attentive and gave me all his recommendations. His service will be the reason why I come back. Everything I ordered was delicious, wait time was approx 20 min. Seafood Pasta was delicious here. Complimentary cheese bread is the bomb!!! ”
“ We had had this place in mind for an occasion later this year but ended up going here today; so we were not dressed formally though it was a really nice and family-friendly setting. We had calamari, polpette, and saffron pappardelle, as well as tiramisu. Complementary focaccia bread was good and calamari was crispy outside and tender inside. We especially liked fresh pasta. The pappardelle was the pasta I wanted to try; the saffron sauce was not really my favorite, so I could have done the Build Your Own Pasta option. Tiramisu is our go-to for ending an Italian meal and this one tasted a little more bitter (more coffee liquor?) than some others we have had; it was not too sweet and good. Atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming and staffers were friendly and helpful. Our main purpose is food, but they also have a nice selection of wine and beverages. Parking garage for visitors in the back. Looking forward to coming back for a special occasion. ”
“ I had an exceptional dining experience, largely thanks to our server, Willy, who truly stood out. The duck tortelloni was exquisite, and my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her margherita pizza. My wife opted for the Caesar salad, which was fantastic as always. While they offer a complimentary focaccia, I highly recommend ordering an additional one—it’s simply outstanding! ”
“ Not your neighborhood Italian joint. The service here, especially Emilio, who was our server for the night was absolutely amazing. He gave us the appetizer special with their 4 best appetizers. Probably the most filling dish of the night. Honestly almost made me full for the main course. They took care of requests very well even though for not being on the menu. I ordered a chicken alfredo and they took care of it in the best way possible. All the dishes tasted amazing and the Mexican twist on all the dishes added for an interesting flavor combo. That was much appreciated. Our server Emilio was super helpful and explained every single dish to us in great detail. Hoping our service feel much more personalized and inviting. 5 stars tonight ”
