    Toasted ravioli
    Christy M.

    I recently had a group lunch here based on a friend's suggestion. I can't believe I haven't been here sooner! I LOVE Trattoria Marcella so once she told me it's the same owners, I was delighted. Always happy to discover a unique, locally owned restaurant in the county. Mia Sorella is in a central location & conveniently off 141. However, the parking lot is shared with many other popular businesses so you parking can be an issue. Right now, it is decorated for the holidays & feels warm & festive. The food was delicious. My friend ordered toasted ravioli for the table which I'm not always a fan of. These are easily my faves in the area! Perfectly stuffed and fried, not too chewy nor heavy. Very delicious. I was between ordering Margherita pizza, chicken caesar panini, or spaghetti and meatballs. I ended up ordering the Margherita pizza (Neapolitan style - STL style was also an option). It was delicious though the dough was a little soft. They also provide a basic bread service (sliced bread & butter), which I always appreciate. I'll just have to come back to try the panini & pasta ;) Another thing - they don't take reservations so expect to wait and try to dine at an off-peak time if possible. As frequent diners of Trattoria Marcella, I already told my husband I want to take him here. I will be back!

    We were visiting from out of town for a soccer tournament, and this restaurant came highly recommended to us. We started with the ravioli appetizer, which was amazing. Our pastas were all made fresh and the red sauce and white sauce were both some of the best that I've ever had. We can't wait to come back and bring family members the next time we are visiting.

    Currently they are decorated for the Christmas season! Bring the family and cheers with your friends and colleagues at their happy hour and stay for dinner. They offer Italian inspired dishes for everyone. I started with a warmed mulled wine and beef carpaccio. The beef was buttery and so thin. My guest had the grilled chicken caesar salad panini and I enjoyed the veal piccata. The flavors were bold and each bite stood out on their own. I was too full on table bread and my meal to try dessert but I will be back. For accessibility the entrance and restroom doors were on the heavier side and the marked accessible bathroom was odd. It had an open slit in the door and the toilet was tall where the toilet tissue was very low. I had to maneuver to reach it.

    Came for dinner on a Tuesday night after happy hour. As we arrived it was very busy. The parking lot is shared with multiple businesses and resturants so parking can get pretty tight. We were surprised to see how busy it was ok a Tuesday but we were able to get seated quickly. We had 6 in our party and they sat us in a really tight booth. It's not a place that can accommodate large groups. For starters we ordered toasted ravioli. The were big and so good. We wish we ordered 2 but we'll remember next time. Our entrée came and they were nice size portions. My boys ordered an original cheese pizza and kids pasta with shrimp. The portion was huge. A couple people ordered the lasagna which looked really good and was told it taste good. I had a small salad with salmon. The salad was good and salmon cooked perfectly. We didn't try desert because what they ordered wasn't appealing to us but we sold come here for dinner again. Oh, beware that it is very noisy in the resturant. Our was hard for us to have a meaningful conversation because we couldn't hear each other. The lighting is very dark as well.

    Pauly D pizza done in classic style
    Debby A.

    Ambience is comfortable with heavy wood furniture and leather banquettes against the wall. The bar area seems popular. Lighting is a little dim, which I like. We went when there were not many people, but I would think it could get loud at peak times. We started with a Sicilian martini for me - it was light and bright, not strong at all. My husband had a Jones root beer only that's not what we received. He received a crappy IBC root beer. We asked why it wasn't Jones and were told recently changed and the menu hadn't been updated. I asked if it was still $5 because Jones root beer runs $3-4 a bottle whereas IBC is about a dollar. She said it was still $5. We found that disappointing and misleading, but in all fairness she offered to bring him something else. Complimentary bread was nice and the butter was high quality. Toasted ravioli consisted of flavorful large pillows. The sauce was a great marinara which allowed the flavor of the ravioli to come through. It was delicious. Salads were next. He had a small Caesar and I had a small Marcella's salad. He loved the Caesar which had a lemony anchovy dressing that was light and not garlicky. The cheese was grated and the croutons were plain, no discernible seasoning nor oil or butter. He loved it, but it would not be my first choice for a Caesar. The Marcella's salad had fresh greens,small garbanzo beans, various other ingredients and a light dressing. It was very good and well balanced. Unfortunately there was a short dark hair on the plate. These things happen. I did not tell the server but it grossed me out. The picture is of the pizza, which was very good. We ordered the classic Pauly D's. Ingredients were fresh. Crust was crunchy but not crispy. It was good - a little smaller than I would expect for $24, but inflation is everywhere. The server was efficient, friendly, and good although she disappeared for 20 minutes when we were ready to go - again the kind of annoyance that can happen anywhere. I was disappointed she did not offer to remove the crappy IBC root beer from the bill. $5 for a bottle of cheap root beer is a joke. Also note that although they did not update the menu to read IBC root beer, they sure updated the check out system. I found that shady. Overall, food is high quality. Price is fairly high, too. I would go back during off hours, but not at peak times because it would be too loud for me.

    Spicy Rigatoni with Shrimp
    Sami B.

    Went to Mia Sorella on a Saturday evening, they do not take reservations so we showed up early around 5:30 to avoid long wait times. Table for 4 took about 15 minutes. We started with wine & arancini. Love that they offer different oz option for the wine versus glass or bottle. I split a small mista salad, and it was really good not too heavy with the dressing. I had the special seafood lasagna, I really enjoy fish & seafood dishes and that's typically my go to when eating out but there was like an overwhelming amount of fish and some of a little more fishy than I prefer , other than that the sauce & portion size was amazing. My sister got the spicy rigatoni & added shrimp & mushrooms her dish was my favorite thing I had all night and I regretted not just getting the same thing. I ended the night with a tiramisu martini, and it was underwhelming. I have had much better but it happened to be on sale that night so all in all wasn't too bad for the sale price. The waitress was attentive & kind. Would come back again!

    Pappardelle
    Leslie H.

    This is a new-to-me place that a group from work visited during lunch. Our server was helpful and attentive. I had asked his opinion on two dishes I was deciding between, and he steered me in the right direction. The Pappardelle is amazing! The flavors are so, so good.

    Tiramisu I guess?
    Marissa K.

    Typically eat inside. This was the first time ordering take out and maybe now I know why. While the main courses were good, the Tiramisu was thrown into the to go container and looked like this - a big mess. So caution - do not order Tiramisu to go if they're going to continue packing it up like this. (Pick up time was 6:48, got there at 6:48 - so it wasn't like I was late picking it up. I strongly suggest under "Special Instructions", request they give it to you upon arrival, instead of leaving out it to melt....)

    Soto Chicken
    Jensen K.

    One of my favorite toasted ravs in all of STL! Always great service, interesting specials, and I've never been disappointed by the food. Lots of great prices and options for happy hour as well.

    FULL HOUSE! Everyone was looking at our table…read more.. My husband said, "I'm taking you out to dinner Saturday night." And boy did he deliver. Neither of us had been here, but a friend recommended we go. It was on my list of restaurants to try so I was more than happy to go! We were served by Shannon. Shannon had such a wonderful sense of humor telling my husband no phones or watches at the dinner table he also kept the bread coming. Like I said, it was a full house so we were eating bread for a while. It was so worth the wait though. My husband got the benedito's farfalle since his favorite pasta is bow tie and I ordered the Rigatoni alla Nino. Mine was delicious and the perfect amount of spicy. The salmon was UGH. Chef's kiss, but my husband's order? I WOULD GET THAT TOO. He ate two baskets of bread though. Lucky for me. I told him he better ask for the rest of his to go because it will have my name written all over it! I was so close to finishing mine but alas, I was too full. Luckily not full enough because we got this dessert. This secret dessert lol what a show. It was made at our table. (I love when restaurants do this) it looked like vanilla bean ice cream with amaretto, a sauce I couldn't tell what that was, and sliced almonds. I am sure I'm missing other ingredients but HOLY COW. Everyone in the restaurant was staring. It was quiet the show. I was scared my hair would go up in flames but he's a pro. That would not happen. The first visit but certainly not the last. We will be back and we will be bringing everyone we know!

The linguine di mare was enjoyable, though somewhat heavy-handed with butter and garlic, which slightly overshadowed the dish's balance. Unfortunately, the service significantly detracted from the overall experience. Despite having a reservation at 6:30pm, and a simple order for two, our entrées did not arrive until approximately an hour after ordering. The delay was excessive and ultimately forced us to leave as soon as the food arrived, leaving us to hastily eat a few bites from the styrofoam to-go containers rather than enjoy them as intended. Given the $160 price point, the experience fell well short of expectations, making it difficult to recommend this restaurant to anyone.

I had been a few times in the past but it was my family's first time. I don't drink alcohol and they have a great mocktail section! I got the NOPE-rol Spritz, it was delicious! My family and I split the white truffle fries and ciabatta as appetizers and they all got pasta dishes that they loved. I got a pizza (the Arugula) and unfortunately I feel as though I ordered wrong (which was my own fault), I didn't really care for it. When you took a bite it was like all the toppings fell off on the first bite. I think they cut the pizza before putting the toppings on which just made it harder to eat. I think the best part of the night was the service. We had Grace as our waitress (she was training another girl, but unfortunately I don't remember her name). They did a fabulous job - Grace did a wonderful job training her! It felt like we were at one of the more elevated Napoli's like Napoli III. They were so attentive and gave us great suggestions.

The food will be very familiar from the perspective that everything we had was excellent. We started with calamari, and to our surprise there were also a small group of onion straws on the plate. It was served with 2 sauces (one marinara and one aioli - both were excellent). Don't skip the fried lemons, they are an added treat. We then moved on to the Napoli salad, it is as described on the menu...crisp, and appropriately dressed. Then we had the special pizza of the evening, it was a black garlic base (not strong) with mushrooms and burrata on top - delicious. We also happen to be sitting next to the area with the pizza oven - a must see if you are there. We did sit inside, but outdoor seating was available. What might not be so familiar, but I thought was great, was a more casual atmosphere, and decor, I would classify is as upscale casual. Our server was very pleasant, the only thing that surprised me was the time in between courses seemed a bit longer than expected, but that gave my friends and I a chance to catch up. Overall, a very enjoyable experience and I will be back!

They have a huge bar offering some nice wines, cocktails, and an extensive selection of bourbons. While this can be an added perk to your dining experience, bourbon drinkers beware! Ask about pricing; we asked for a particular common brand. The server failed to explain they didn't have the typical bottle of the brand we requested in their bar, and only offered a special reserve version. The special version of the brand is mentioned on the menu, but we did not have the menu and just inquired about the brand. Therefore, there was no mention of the bourbon being a special blend or reserve and being priced much higher than what's typical for the brand. He just brought out the drink. We were shocked when the bill was presented learning just then it was a $102 shot. We were shocked considering we'd ordered other bourbon drinks there in the past and never paid more than about $20 for one drink. The menu lists wine prices; bourbons, however, despite their apparent wide range in pricing, are not noted. This experience left us feeling disappointed.

Everything was very one note and a variance in texture. The fries and ranch were excellent. They were hot and crispy and the ranch was addictive. I wouldn't mind giving Gio another chance, maybe at dinner.
