Actually gets surprised by people eating inside. The prices are okay for portions. Basic stuff on the menu as you can imagine. It's got a lot of the classics such as pizza and spaghetti. They assume most are getting takeout. Came in and was planning to get it to go. Then we were able to sit at a table. It's about $10 for a plate of pasta. Then you add a few toppings. I got the classic Spaghetti Marinara. Lots of stuff on the plate. It came with a humongous piece of garlic bread. This made us get full quickly. For sure it's great for quick bites. It's closed Mondays. This is located on Central Avenue in a strip plaza so it's not authentic but it's still okay though.

The salads were pretty good. I honestly wasn't that crazy about the caesar dressing but it was edible. The salad and chicken were fresh though. Also, I didn't get sick, which is a plus considering the lettuce recalls lately. The portion size is generous as well. My brother had a beer flight too, which he always enjoys. The restaurant was crowded, but the bar area felt intimate. There were a lot of regulars around us, so people were familiar with each other. Everyone was friendly, which was cool. The environment was relaxed and comfortable. I'd definitely visit sometime in the future if the opportunity presented itself.

There can be a 45-minute wait for the pizza, so we also ordered the Polenta appetizer, which was a little mushy but still tasted good. Although I am not a big fan of pan style, I think this pizza was very good in that category. I like that the crust tasted like pizza dough, rather than cornmeal like some other places. The sauce is not that sweet and has small chunks of tomato, but not too many. The cheese had a good flavor and consistency. The sausage also tasted good. We felt very welcomed by the server, and I appreciate that he put our order in immediately so we didn't have to wait very long for the pizza to get done. Louisa's is quite nice, the decor is just right for an Italian restaurant, the music playlist is perfect, and the lighting is dark but I could still read the menu okay. There is a photo collage on one wall which includes Louisa in several photos. The bar area is well lit but still cozy. There is ample parking along the North side of the building and behind it.

A few teens may occasionally come in but most aren't. This is popular with the locals and matures. Coming here certainly makes one think about how they stay in business. It's often got an empty parking lot. Thankfully they were open when I got there. It looks like a basic family owned business. They have been running it for years. It's about $12 for the Spaghetti. This is basic and filling thankfully. Great place to get homestyle Americanized food and beyond. It's open daily unlike almost every other restaurant around here. There's basic American food that's got mediocre seasoning but people like it or whatever.

I called ahead to ask if they had steak, and they told me they were offering New York strip and…read moreribeye. That sounded promising, and since they're under new management, we figured we'd give them another try for dinner. Big mistake. They haven't improved at all--in fact, they've gone downhill. What they served as a "New York strip" was the same thin steak you'd expect with a steak‑and‑eggs breakfast. A cigarette is probably the same thickness as the piece of meat they brought me. I ordered it medium‑rare, and it arrived with a gray center. They did offer to re‑cook it, but I wasn't about to go through that. There's simply no way to cook a steak that thin like an actual steak, so I didn't even bother letting them try again. The place was practically empty on a Friday night--just one older man and a couple tucked away in a corner. Honestly, the empty parking lot should've been our warning. Total fail. Never again.

The place is both a restaurant and, at the front, seems to have some grocery items as well. They have a wine room, though not something I checked out. The private room was comfortable; it didn't feel overly crowded or anything, even though there were at least eight tables for dining and then a few others for food and gifts and whatnot. The one thing that was a little weird was that there were a couple bathrooms in the front of the room, which seemed like an odd and somewhat conspicuous place to put them. There was a bathroom out in the main restaurant, too, and also a family bathroom which I appreciated. That's where the changing table is located. Parking seems minimal--unless I missed some, it didn't actually seem like enough for the size of the restaurant. But they do have a private lot.

I like that the ordering area is right in front of you when you walk in, and that the boards with menu items are above. Off to the right are pastries and to the left is the gelato. Along the left wall are some two tops and to the right are some four tops. So, you can come here in a group, or on your own. The food: I asked for a tester of the strawberry cheesecake gelato. This was good. A little bit icey, but good flavor. My partner ordered a scoop of the chocolate chip in a cone and enjoyed it. I thought his was a little icey as well, but again had good flavor. There was a picture of a bagel with avocado and tomato on google maps, that I wanted to try. I asked what it was bc I didn't see it on the menu and they said it was the avocado toast. They offered to put it on a bagel, and I asked if cream cheese could be added. This bagel is fantastic. It's so fresh. And you can see how perfect the avocado was; it was perfectly ripe. They also added some olive oil and her , but they left off the feta and tomato. I think those two toppings would have made this epic. Nonetheless, it was yummy. The drinks: I ordered a chai tea latte because they said they made their chai syrup in house. When I tasted it, I realized they made it in water first, rather than in milk, and it wasn't spicy like a traditional chai. I could taste cinnamon, but I didn't taste cloves, cardamom, black pepper, anise, ginger, etc. This was okay. Next time I might try one of their tea bags because they have a large selection. My partner ordered a mocha. He said it was good. Parking: They have a shared lot out front and we were able to find a space without issue. Overall impression: I intend to come back to try more of their food items and other teas. The people who work here are wonderful and the location is great.

we went here tonight 2/11. I made reservations 3 weeks ago for 7:15 for 4 people. You would think that a reservation means actually having a reservation. Well I found as I walked in that there were people 10 deep waiting since 6:00 pm to be seated,. After spending 2 hours at the bar and then getting seated in the corner by force, it was the WORST RESTAURANT YOU COULD EVER GO TO, THE OWNER WAS INCONSIDERATE AND THEY HAD A MALE HOST THAT did nothing but walk around and pretend he was working, just putzed around acting like he was doing some good .. we never ate, we never got a server...or menus at 9:45 pm. What a horrible experience. Even if Charlie Trotter was the cook , nobody should wait 2 hours to get a meal, nobody, food for time spent waiting, sorry not doing it. DON'T EVER GO HERE, THEIR FOOD ISN'T THAT GREAT, no food is worth time spent waiting! Stay home and order a pizza, that was better than going to Bella Mia. The reason we went was to see Vito Zatto who saved the night but we never ate dinner, never got a morsel and left starving and had to go to Toxic Hell for a burrito,. Nice Valentine's day dinner!! I hope the owner knows what impact that had on his restaurant. I cannot imagine why anyone would want to spend their precious time or money there!!!! read more

Bella Mia Restaurant in Midlothian is by far the best thing that has come to the South Suburbs.The decor is georgeous and very romantic and cozy. The food is absolutely some of the best I have eveer tasted. They have a large variety of chicken, veal and spaghetti dishes. The steak and pork dishes are to die for and the seafood choices are great. You will always see the owner walking around asking people if everything is to their taste.If at anytime someone is dissatisfied they will correct it no questioned asked. The waiters, waitress's, bartenders and bus help are the nicest people around.Remember these people could be your mother, father, brother, sister or cousin who needed jobs or changed careers in midlife. They work hard and aim to please. Sometimes you might have a delay in getting your food , but remember everything is made fresh................ Do try an appetizer they are fantastic I hear people raving about the calamari , shrimp de jonge and the stuffed eggplant along with all the other appetizers. Bella Mia has also brought entertainment to Midlothian on Thursdays and Saturdays. Remember if at anytime something is not to your liking notify your server and the problem will be corrected immediately. read more

Let me begin by saying I visited several venues looking for just the right fit to host my mother's 75th birthday celebration and found it at Bella Mia. From the moment I walked into Bella Mia I felt at home. The hostess greeted me with a smile and immediately I felt welcome. I then consulted with Mr. Randy-Owner- and he assured me that my mom would love it at Bella Mia and he was right. Mr. Randy and his staff are the absolute best. They helped make my mother's celebration one she and her guests will never forget. They were personable, friendly, and extremely professional. They were accommodating, proactive, and anticipated the needs of my participants. The food was delicious and the presentation was top notch. The "Library" (private room) was perfect for the intimate gathering that I had envisioned. If you haven't had the opportunity to visit you are missing a treat. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is stellar. Thank you Mr. Randy, Joe (server) and Megan (server) for your service. read more

I had heard good things about Bella Mia and drive past often so decided I had to check it out. It was an early dinner and not many customer yet but we really enjoyed ourselves. The owner even came up and introduced himself- very nice!! The food was excellent, even as leftovers. There was a period we waited for refills on drinks, and then waited a little bit longer but I'm sure (and hoping) they were just in back getting breads and things ready for the long night. Food was excellent!! Service - there were about 5 other servers who had seen me looking around and could have asked if I had needed something but never did (pretty sad) When my server was back it was great. Would go back for the food- read more

I'm going to give this one star only because of the lack of social responsibility and lack of concern for the public during a pandemic. The food and waitstaff were awesome, but apparently, the owner either chooses to ignore or doesn't care that we are in a global pandemic that is getting worse instead of better. NO ONE was wearing a mask. Not the owner, not the waitstaff, not the hostess, not the guests (when not at their tables), no one. If it weren't for my son's birthday, I would have instantly walked out. Bella Mia, you have lost a customer. NEVER EATING HERE AGAIN. The ignorance and lack of consideration by the owners for the general public is astounding. SHAMEFUL. read more

Went to Bella Mia's a few times. I LOVE the whole eating experience there. Its very relaxed, they don't try to rush you in and out like local Italian restaurants in Palos do. I am not a fan of pork but I took a chance on the Italian pork chops and was very glad I did. They are amazing! Will continue to go there for great Italian food. The staff is very professional, warm and helpful. Our waiter, Sal, suggested wine and offered before he served it, "If you don't like, I will take it back and get you something else, no problem" .

The word that comes to my mind after trying this place twice...AVERAGE! Nothing is really special but its not awful either. I tried the chicken parmesan on my last visit and and it was like being at olive garden. It seemed to be pre-made with a very bland sauce. The calamari appetizer was again ok but not going to get me very excited. The name suggests so much more, but eh..its ok.

Before going, we looked at the menu, and there really wasn't anything my little one was going to want on the kids menu - there was no seafood for the kids, not even a basic fish and chips. He saw the lobster rolls appetizer though, and that sold him, so we got in the car and headed down. When we went to order, the waiter told us the only thing they were out of was the lobster rolls, but when we asked about the lobster gnocchi that my other son was about to order, they said they could do that, so I asked to speak with the manager. She explained that they only liked to use big whole pieces of lobster for the lobster rolls, and that is what they were out of, but had the smaller pieces they normally used in the gnocchi dish. I asked if she could do the lobster rolls with the smaller pieces, and she confirmed with the chef so we were back in business. The food was all excellent. I had the seared ahi and it was delicious, but was just a small portion for my liking. The scallops my wife had were delicious, but for $38 it was only 4 scallops. Maybe kids who live around here don't want fish when their parents do, but you should at least have a kids portion of fish and chips, or some fried shrimp on the menu for them. I'm not going to order a $27 fish and chips portion for a little kid, but he also didn't come to just eat chicken nuggets or buttered noodles.

My ribeye was cooked to perfection. Mom had the lamb chops and she said aloud that she was in heaven. I did not want to hear that kind of talk, so I ordered her a prosecco. Ha. She relaxed. We had a few sides, the creamed spinach and the Mac n Cheese and each one did not disappoint. There was no room for dessert, but side note...(this place is located at the Wind Creek Casino just next to a Portillo's and IYKYK- that Chocolate Cake is fire! So make a detour and got ma home. I recommend for dates, special occasions or just a damn good meal in the Southland without the hassle of driving downtown! 5 Star experience. Make your reservation now!

This may be my 2nd ever 5 star review. The food was great!!! I personally had a Mediterranean bass…read morethat was OUTSTANDING!!! The steak was flavorful, the oysters Rockefeller were full of flavor. The crispy Brussels were definitely a hit!!!! The Mac and cheese was white but very cheesy and good. I don't think anyone complained about the food!!!! The service was top tier!!! Ala carte menu. Alto's which is a Fabio Viviani restaurant at the Wind Creek Casino in East Hazel Crest. Huge shout out to ABRAHAM!!!! He waited on our party of 8 including a 3 year old with skill, humor and absolutely no missteps.
