We had planned to go to Mia Bella for lunch, and when we got there, they had apparently had some severe storm damage - yet we smelled the tasty aroma of food, and realized the building across the street was also a restaurant. I had never even noticed it, but we gave it a try and I am SO GLAD WE DID! The owner is a sweetheart, the service was wonderful, and THE FOOD! OH my goodness my mouth is watering - I finished the leftovers for lunch today. It is a very cozy atmosphere, seems to have many regulars, and the owner, Hossein, seems to know them all by name. The price is extremely reasonable. I recommend the Chicken Pionini (sp?) and we also had a customized order (he says the menu is just a guide, they are very accommodating!) of angel hair, mushrooms, marsalla sauce, and fresh meatballs! If they are serving the Cream of Onion soup - ORDER IT! We will be visiting this one regularly for sure :)
Pros: FOOD, atmosphere, price, service/owner hospitality
Cons: That I didn't know about it sooner!
