Decent food but...

by bbaggins32

I had something in my water and massive cork in my wine. These things would have been visible if the server checked with a glance before serving them to me. No apologies were made. Lack of attention and service made the good food less enjoyable.

• Pros: Food was good
• Cons: Poor Service

HUGE R0ACH WALKING ABOUT!!

by edith09

I researched many restaurants for my anniversary, and decided to go to Mia Bella. Worst mistake! We were seated right away and everything was going fine. The place itself needs some help though, the walls were chipped, the wooden floor was uneven, and the place just looked very old. Not elegant at all. We received our food, but it wasn't what I expected. It just didn't taste good. All of a sudden I see this huge r0ach, the size of a finger, just walking about. Boy did that take away my apetite. I could see the gross r0ach flap its wings around some woman's shoe, but I don't think she noticed. We finally got the waiter's attention, and all he did was get sweaty and nervous, and try to follow the r0ach. After a while we saw the manager stepping on the r0ach, but acting as if he was taking a step forward to attend a customer in front of him. In a way it was kind of funny. After not finishing our dinner we decide to take a couple of creme brulee's home, since I had heard that they were all they rave. They splatted them on a large alluminum plate, and they just looked like fat. When I got home I thought maybe they'll taste good, but no. I couldn't even eat them. They tasted burnt, and like metal. I definitely would never go back there again, and would never recommend it either!

• Pros: Okay atmosphere
• Cons: dirty, old, R0aches, food

WORST SERVICE!

by lindz13

I keep trying to give this place another chance, but each and every time their RUDE servers ruin the dining experience for me. And when I ordered a to go meal, they put the COLD salad with the HOT sandwich and didn't even make the salad I ordered. When I explained this to them, they simply didn't care. I even made a complaint on their website and never received any acknowledgment. I will no longer waste my money for a restaurant that obviously doesn't care if I enjoy my dining experience with them.

• Pros: Food decent
• Cons: Service!!!!

Great food, great price, great service

by ted1

Excellent. We have never had bad food or service. Besides, great pricing for the quality of food. Menu suggestions, any. All friends and families that had dinner with us at Mia Bella had excellent reviews. Not one had any negative comments. We love it! It's a must.

• Pros: Everthing
• Cons: can't think of one!

The Brunch Menu- Great food, Great Value for Money

by magnoliaconcierge

Brunch at Mia Bella- This week I tired there cooked to order brunch! At first I did not want to try it because it is not known for its brunch menu however I thought I would explore the menu. I tried there omelette and it was very good, it came with fresh fruit and roasted potatoes! Only $6.95! Not bad for being on Main street in downtown. I have to say, very good. I then also ordered the pancakes, the manager Jenny told me they were amazing, so I just had to try them. They were amazing, she was right! It came with strawberries. I would come back for brunch every sunday, there brunch menu is served until 3pm every sunday! The prices are very reasonable for brunch also.

• Pros: Ambience, Service
• Cons: Parking, homeless people in downtown walking around

Great Customer Service

by lazcu

The Customer service was great. The wait staff knew menu and were very informative. Tony was a great waiter refilled our drinks and was very attentive after we gout our food. Highly recommended but do make a reservation just to be sure you get seated quickly.

Poor customer service

by rookbe

My friends and I often go to Mia Bella (groups of 5+ people) and generally enjoy the place. Tonight we experienced terrible customer service that was highlighted by being charged $12/glass red wine - unbeknownst to us until our bill came. The same wine was available by the bottle 4 wks ago for approx. $28/bottle. The rationale for the sudden and dramatic switch was simply, "well the bottle is no longer on the menu so we saw fit to charge you by the glass." It would have been nice if the waiter could have told us this up front rather than surprising us with the $90 wine bill. The same wine is available for $10/bottle at Central Market. Thanks Mia Bella. I don't think I'll be coming back.

Great place if you're downtown

by emhouston

We had a great night. The food was very good and service was excellent. Nice romantic mood. Do not sit outside. We could see outside all the bums asking the people outside for food every 5 minutes. This restaurant is walking distance to a lot of bars downtown (Whiskey Bar, M-bar) for after dinner if you're interested.

• Pros: Romantic atmosphere, location
• Cons: Outside seating needs to be blocked off more from the street
