Gelato Mio is a very nice restaurant. The restaurant is run by a nice couple. They go above and…read morebeyond to give samples and ensure that a client is ready to build the combo they desire. The prices are not too expensive and are on par with if not lower than competing gelato and smoothie bars. This is a great little place to come for a snack after some mall time.

I scoped it out and decided to try their gelato as I am a big gelato fan. I tried a few samples including their Mango, Taro and Matcha green tea. They were all good. I opted to get their Regular size cup of gelato which comes with three scoops (same or different flavors - your choice). I got Pistachio, Coconut and Taro flavors. The total came out to $5.33 after tax. I got good portion size in the scoops. All the three flavors were tasty. They were nice flavors. The gelato was smooth (not dense and not too soft either). My favorite was the Taro flavor, followed by Pistachio and then the Coconut. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the gelato here. I was happy. They were a bit busy as they are a part of the Food Court. Thus, I didn't get to ask about their gelato as in where it's made, who makes it etc. Most people who came while I was there were going for the Boba Milk Teas which brings me to my next point. Besides gelato, they offer gelato milkshakes, fruit smoothies, and Boba milk teas. I liked their menu variety. I would definitely recommend this place. I can't wait to check them out again for other stuff they have to offer. Go check them out while you are at the mall. They have good service, reasonable prices and their menu variety offers something for all gelato, smoothie and milk tea lovers.

I really wanted to like this local spot. Having its own parking lot is definitely a plus, and there…read morewas plenty of seating when we visited. The interior, however, is very dark and could benefit from better lighting. Service was disappointing. Despite having plenty of wait staff and not many customers, we waited long and had a hard time getting attentive service. The food itself showed promise and was flavorful overall. Unfortunately, the pasta was cooked too al dente for my taste, especially the ravioli, which was on the verge of being undercooked. The biggest letdown was the cleanliness. An ant crawled up my arm during our meal, and we noticed several flies, bugs in the dining area. I truly wanted to enjoy and support this local restaurant, but the lack of attentive service and cleanliness issues made it difficult to overlook the negatives.

We were excited to finally try Olivia's. We decided to go for an early dinner (5:30ish) on a…read moreFriday evening. First impression, the parking lot was empty. We had heard they were busy, many times with wait times. So we were surprised. The ambiance is really nice, A really nice Italian dinner restaurant. I started with an Old Fashioned and it was one of the better ones I have had. They really nailed it. There are a couple on their menu so I was sure to say "not the one with soda/selter". That a Wisconsin one :) We asked if the Caesar was large enough to split to start. They said yes. Great. There were 3 tables filled so it was finally not empty. Not sure why the bar seating was empty- looked like a great place to sit too. After ten minutes we gave our order, Chicken Piccata for my wife and I had the Pork Chop special. The waiter didn't come by and we didn't get our salad. He was busy making drinks for one larger party (the 4th table). Finally our entree's came. I asked what happened to our salad. He looked confused. I reminded him we asked if it was large enough to split and we would start with it. He was genuinely sorry. It happens. Then we ate the entree's. My wife's Chicken was flavorful and served hot. It was very good. My pork chop was closer to room temp rather than hot. The flavor was really good. Unfortunately I have a thing about eating my food hot, not on the cold side. I told the waiter. He was sorry and asked if he could have them heat it up. I passed .... Didn't want dryer food while my wife ate alone. The manager came over and insisted it didn't sit at the window. Not sure WHY he wanted to argue this point. I offered the plate so he could taste or even feel the dish at that point. He seemed genuinely wanting to help, but he didn't need to make us feel like we were wrong. Again - not the end of the world. So why 3 stars? My wife's food was great. The taste of mine was good. They didn't charge us for my dinner. Their Old Fashioned was out of this world (ask Omar to make it). The truth is we want to try it again and see if this was a glitch. If it wasn't a glitch, it's why they weren't packed on a Friday night.
