We had the BEST Italian meal EVER! The Chef made the "Chef's Special" for us and it was amazing! This Chef is extremely talented and creative. The pasta was obviously freshly homemade and the ricotta cheese tasted like it was fresh too - so creamy and delicious with fresh vegetables too. The service was incredible as well. Bodee took great care of us and is warm, personable and professional. When we travel, we always look for good Italian restaurants. We live 2 hours away from Osteria Mia but will make the drive just to return to this great restaurant!!! read more

One of my favorites for date night or even just a quick drink and appetizer before or after some shopping. Our go-to appetizers are the Brussel Sprouts and arancini. I've never been a fan of Brussel Sprouts but Osteria Mia has made me a believer. The balsamic adds a little zest to the gorgonzola and pancetta. Ive also never been a fan of peas but again Osteria Mia has made me a beleiver by adding them to their arancini! They offer 6 different types of bruschetta and honestly every one of them is delicious. Some of our favorites are the fig jam, prosciutto, goat cheese and balsamic, the Taleggio cheese and apricot mostardo as well as the mozzarella, tomatoes and basil pesto. The orecchiette is creamy without being "soupy". The amount of Italian sausage and broccolini are just enough to add to the pasta without taking over the whole dish. My favorite is the Pasta Norcina. The truffle and garlic cream sauce is rich but not overpowering. Sausage, mushrooms and pecorino ramano are the perfect additions to put this dish over the top! If you're in the mood for pizza the Funghi pizza is fantastic. I'm a sucker for anything with truffles. Mozzarella, gorgonzola and ricotta blend perfectly to make this pizza delectable. If you have room for dessert the tiramisu and connolis are a must. Their dessert menu changes but we've had everything from lemon ricotta cheesecake to chocolate orange cake and they've all be equisite. Service has always been spot on with prompt service and knowledgeable staff. We often order solely off their recomendations. Osteria Mia has amazing happy hour specials as well! read more

Today was a profoundly sad day made a lot better with a surprisingly delightful meal. We intended to dine elsewhere but there was an hour-long wait. I looked at what was nearby and Osteria Mia looked really good. It would be a half hour wait, but there were immediately open seats at the bar. We headed there and took seats at the far end so we could talk. I ordered the Pasta Norcina and he ordered the Carne pizza. The pasta was one of the best pasta dishes I've had in the last 18 months. Granted, I don't eat a lot of pasta, and even fewer cream sauces, but it sounded soooo good and exceeded expectations! He enjoyed the crispness of the hand-stretched crust and quality toppings. Cody was our server and was simultaneously handling all the drink orders with occasional help. He was a good server for someone pulling double duty. What made the day super sucky (until dinner) is that my guy's father had passed away in the hospital after a recent cancer diagnosis. My guy needed to eat after days of intense worry and erratic mealtimes. And we needed some quality time together. Thank you, Osteria Mia, for making a dark day a bunch brighter. read more

We tried Osteria Mia for the first time on a Friday night because we were craving pasta and pizza, and it definitely did not disappoint! The menu had so many delicious options that we had a hard time deciding what to order. Thankfully, our waitress, McKenzie, was amazing. She took the time to ask what we were in the mood for and made excellent recommendations based on our cravings. Everything she suggested was fantastic! She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and even shared information about the restaurant's weekly specials and events, which made us want to come back and try even more. The food was delicious, the service was exceptional, and the overall experience was wonderful. If you're looking for authentic Italian food with outstanding hospitality, Osteria Mia is definitely worth a visit. We can't wait to come back! read more

Crowded, loud, long wait.....and my pasta wasn't even cooked. Like still crunchy undercooked. The waitress offered to have the chef prepare another dish, but we'd already waited a long time for our food and didn't feel like repeating the wait, so we just crossed Osteria Mia off our list. read more

Great food and drinks! It's been a while since we've visited Osteria Mia and it's still a great Italian restaurant! Brody iscan excellent bar tender. The pizza was outstanding but the side salads could use some help. They need croutons and more salad dressing. Will definitely return sooner rather than later! read more

We had a great time. Sat at the bar and Bodee took care of us. He was awesome. Also need to give a shout out to Becky (Poppy). She was so fun. The Diavola pizza was so good we ordered a second one to take home. Thanks Bodee for the air fryer idea to reheat. Wine selection is great as well. read more

We enjoyed lunch here on a Sunday. We did not need a reservation. I got the Butternut Squash Tortelloni and loved it. He loved his Il Capo pizza. Service was nice and friendly. No complaints. Great option if you're in the area. read more

Excited to find a great place to eat out in this area, it's hard to come across a place with great food like this one. We had Jennifer as our server and she was lovely. Started out with the Arancini's to share and the Beet Salad. Then we ended up sharing a few pizzas and pastas, everything was delicious! The pizza is cooked perfectly, with the right amount of crunch. Of course we had to share all the desserts as well. The tiramisu was a favorite for sure. This was our first time dining in and we will be coming back again. read more

Wow! This was sooo good, I'll be back very soon. Arancini was excellent and the mussels with the white wine sauce was some of the best I've had. Gotta come back for their fresh pasta, pizza and bruschetta! read more

Save your money. Don't even bother. Staff was rude and gave such poor service. Food was cold. Place was very loud. For subpar Italian food you're better off ordering a pizza from Dominos. read more

I'm still dreaming of the pasta I had at Osteria Mia last week. This is a must go to place if you're a fan of Italian food. We were seated right away and the entrees options all sounded amazing. The portion sizing, flavors and pricing were spot on. We ordered the Pasta Norcina, Lupara, and Campanella-all were 10/10s. We even ended the night with a sweet treat, the creme brûlée. The restaurant was not too loud or busy, and was very well kept. read more

Most of the things that were off were not about the food. First the Good: All 6 of us enjoyed our entrees. Our server did a good job explaining and suggesting items. The cocktails were good. The servings were good sized and three of us took home part of our meals. The prices were fair and i would order the same again. Now the not so Good: It was difficult to find. We ended up parking a fair distance away. There was not room for us (6) indoors.... I'll know next time to reserve a table. The patio was dirty, bird dropping all over the railings and floors. It felt like lunchroom aftermath. I would have really appreciated a cushion on the mesh metal chairs. Being outside led to slow and forgotten service. There were some timing problems with our drinks and appetizers (forgotten). Then they showed up about two minutes before the salads and entrees. Our server took full responsibility and that was awesome. It seems like a great place... just a few tweaks will take it up a notch. String some lights , put some paraphernalia on the tables. Maybe even some bread. read more

Wanted to love it, but really disappointed We've been wanting to try Osteria Mia ever since we moved down the street, and finally gave it a shot but unfortunately, it was a letdown from the start. We were seated without any silverware, which made things awkward since we had just gotten our appetizer we couldn't even enjoy a starter properly. It took about 10 minutes before our server came back around with utensils. He seemed super busy, so we tried to be patient, but when he finally dropped off the silverware, he didn't even check if we were ready to order we had to ask someone else to get him. When our food came out, the pizza was cold. Not lukewarm actually cold, like it had just been sitting out. That was already disappointing, but then the pasta came out way too salty. At that point, we were just ready to wrap it up and go. Really wanted to like this place since it's so close to home, but the service felt disconnected and the food was just not good. Don't think we'll be giving it a second chance. read more

We enjoyed our dinner and will definitely be coming back! We were quite happy with the selections and enjoyed everything we had--we ordered several small plates and shared among the table. Service was very good! Ambiance is not very interesting--it's an unfinished warehouse/industrial vibe so nothing special. They did have faux candles on the table which kind of helped the vibe. Prices were a little on the high side for this side of town considering its further from Phoenix. But overall, food was well-seasoned and cooked and we enjoyed our meal and will be coming back another time! read more

No bread offered to start Food is not great, lasagna = Chef Boyardee to the Tee - sauce, meat, texture. The lasagna at an Italian restaurant will tell you if it's good or not! The atmosphere needs to be more Italian themed and not a warehouse style. No decor, no white table cloths, No background music, one of there booth seats was torn to shit and they still placed a family there Etc... The sign outside is really nice and inviting. Strawberry balsamic spritz cocktail was delicious. Our waitress Mackenzie was amazing and checked back regularly to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Definitely will not be back. Mackenzie - You deserve better! read more

Loved the food, we had the chicken Marsala and the Caesar salad. Close to the shopping and attentive staff. Made for a lovely evening. I had a deliciously sour mocktail that really hit the spot. So tasty! Would love to try the pizza because the wood-fired oven that greets you at the door looks epic and creates a lovely ambiance. read more

We're from out of town, so I'll start with finding the place. You have to park your car - I suggest by the movie theater in the large shopping center. Then walk into the outdoor mall area and the restaurant is on the left. We found it easily once we were on foot. We arrived at 6pm on a Tuesday and the bartender was kind enough to get us a happy hour beverage (it ends at 6, Tuesday through Friday). When our friends arrived, we were seated quickly and service was attentive. They have a fabulous variety of bruschetta options to choose from. My only complaint is they were out of one I wanted to try, but we were pleased with the artichoke, roasted red pepper, and tomato choices we made. For my meal I had the mushroom ravioli and it was delicious! The balsamic sauce was tangy and gave the dish a nice complexity. I especially enjoyed the arugula in the center of the dish - it was almost like a little mini salad, which I appreciated because soup or salad are a la carte at this restaurant. My husband loved his lasagna bolognese. It looked perfectly meaty & cheesy. At the end of the meal, we lingered but it wasn't busy so it was fine, but after a bit they stopped filling our water. One nice touch - a friendly hostess took our photo as we were leaving - we hadn't seen these friends in years. Overall this is a great Italian restaurant with reasonably priced food for the freshness with good service in a nice area. If we lived here, we'd definitely go back again. read more

We came here a few years ago and had an amazing experience. We came back and took my parents. The service team was very friendly, especially the bartender but the service was slow. The vibe did not feel the same as before. It felt like younger employees were running the restaurant. Once we ordered our drinks and food, the food showed up before the drinks. One of the salads came out wrong, then another salad came out wrong, and once the drinks showed up, one had the wrong alcohol in it. Sad to say but probably would not come back. read more

This place was an absolute win! We had a family dinner and shared ALL the food. The pizza, gnocchi, mushroom ravioli, autumn salad, chef board, lemon ricotta cheesecake, raspberry sorbet were all amazing. Body was our server and he couldn't have been nicer. He made us a special espresso martini that will change your life. In fact, the entire staff was amazing. Don't skip this place! read more

We ate at 5 and restaurant very quiet. However, by 6 it was busy and very loud. Our waiter helped us banished the wine list. There were 6 of us and everyone enjoyed their dishes ranging from beet salad, pizza, chicken parm, meatballs and pasta. No complaints. Everything is Alacarte so get prepared to pay for bread. Nice addition to Norterra. read more

I came for my birthday and they were not as busy but the kitchen was very slow. It took over an hour to get our food, the waiter and manager did come by several times and apologized which we did appreciate. Also management did comp 2 desserts for the table. It was 5 people. read more

Homemade pasta (rigatoni)...delicious and cooked just right: al dente! Excellent rotation of salad dressings. A few months ago we had a mustard vinaigrette, and recently had a champagne vinaigrette. Both excellent. We also had a crispy thin crust pizza from the wood fired oven. I'm rating this up because the food in three visits has been consistently really praiseworthy. Service is just OK...took a few minutes to get our cocktails but food coursed out well from the kitchen. Nice place to bring a group. I brought four friends from out of town, one of whom is a restaurant owner. He appreciated the food and can be a tough critic. If I can take "Jeff" to a reasonablely priced restaurant and he likes the food, then it's doing a great job in the kitchen! read more

Today we had an amazing experience! Darrian, Bodee and Sydney did a fantastic job with a full house! Food was delicious and service was on point! Mad props to the three of them! We sure hope the owners know these 3 are doing a fantastic job! read more

Really delicious dinner with friends here tonight. Service was a bit slow at the start, but it improved over the meal. Decent selection of wines, most around $12/glass. Caesar and side salads were both good. My pasta morcina was fantastic. Others got the chicken parmigiana, butternut squash ravioli, short rib radiatore, and tortellini. Everyone's dishes looked fantastic, and all said they tasted equally delicious. We'll definitely come here again. read more

We celebrated two birthdays at Osteria Mia yesterday. We were greeted by our waiter Brady, who took great care of us and was very personable. I have a food allergy and the chef came out because he was concerned about my order which was so thoughtful and does not happen at very many restaurants. I had the Short Rib pasta, which was amazing. By the way, their pasta is homemade! My friend had a salad and there was so much chicken on it. I couldn't believe it. For dessert, she had a cherry cannoli, and I had the pistachio which was out of this world, yum! I normally don't eat cannolis, but these are delicious. Thanks again for the wonderful birthday experience! I would recommend this restaurant for lunch or dinner. read more

Lots of employees standing around talking is probably the reason why two of our dishes were not hot. Service was so so. Atmosphere was none existent. No bread. My beer had a funny taste. My dish was hot and the other two dishes were room temperature. How can that be? Bar not stocked well. One and done. Carrabbas has nothing to worry about. read more

You wouldn't think that a hidden corner of a suburban strip mall type shopping center would house a restaurant that makes their pasta in house... but man this spot is legit. It's a little cavernous inside, and the service is sometimes a little hit or miss, but I definitely recommend this place if you happen to be in the North Valley. read more

I ordered to go and was not a fan. I got the tagliatelle bolognese and it looked nothing like the photo on their website. A lot of the pasta was dry and undercooked. Huge chunks of beef rather than an actual sauce. I think the kitchen is not consistent because it seems as most people are enjoying their meals but then there are several bad reviews about the food quality. If I was the owner, I would be looking to find out which one of my cooks doesn't know what their doing because clearly someone is messing people's food up. read more

My friend and I went for dinner. We arrived at the restaurant and waited at the hostess station for what felt like 5 minutes before anyone acknowledged us. We were immediately seated only to be ignored again. Finally placed our order and thankfully the kitchen was more responsive.

Funghi - actually really gooood. I like the earthy warm palate of the mushroom with the truffle oil. Crust was crispy and and yummy which is all I can ever ask Red pasta sauce which was soooo yummy. It wasn't sour and was rich and savory/creamy. I would get it. Cacio e pepe - very creamy and rich, honestly very good, would get again. Gets heavy at the end though so should share with something else read more

I was actually hoping to go to the State 48 Rock House, but their kitchen was closed at 8:30 PM which I thought was odd. Well, the good news was that I ended up here. For what was indeed a slow middle of the week night service was brilliant from start to finish. The Fritto Misto - Tempura battered zucchini, summer squash and artichoke hearts with a side of lemon zest aioli to start was amazing. Light, not greasy, and very tasty. For my main I had a Grilled Romaine Salad - Half a head of romaine lettuce grilled and topped with a caesar dressing, croutons, grape tomatoes, red onions and parmesan frico with shrimp. It was great! Though it wasn't the Rock House I still managed a new beer here too. I was very happy coming here. The place wasn't that big, but it felt roomy and comfortable. read more

The ambiance was great. We sat outside. Initial service for drinks took a little bit longer than anticipated but we weren't in a hurry. Once we placed our drink orders everything went well and was timed well. The arancini come as 4 in a serving. My date said their arancini was cold, but mine was hot. But the sauce that was underneath them was cold. I am not sure if that is how it is supposed to be served. It was still tasty. We had mussels and a pasta dish. One of the crostini was a bit too burnt. My date didn't want to finish it. The pasta was tasty but not out of this world. But they did split it up in 2 bowls without us having to request that so that was nice. My wine was delicious. We will probably come back at least one more time to give it another go. read more
