“My husband Jack and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary tonight, and on a last minute whim he chose Bella Mia. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of phenomenal, and I had to write this review immediately. The moment we walked in, we were greeted not only by the host and hostess, but also by several staff members and even guests at the bar. The atmosphere was warm, cozy, welcoming, and incredibly friendly. Pure class. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and perfectly accented with soft candlelight, making the evening feel special and intimate. We sat at the bar and were welcomed by Gina, the bartender, who was extremely attentive and genuinely kind, making us feel right at home. The food was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. The owner, Randy, came by to greet us and his personality was truly infectious. He had us laughing nonstop and made our night even more memorable. We also had the pleasure of sitting next to Marcy and Dick, regulars who have been coming since day one. Even though this was our very first visit, we felt like part of the Bella Mia family. From the staff to the clientele, the love and pride behind this place are undeniable. Bella Mia is truly one of a kind and deserves all the recognition it receives. We felt all the love and will absolutely be back again and again. Jessica O’Grady“

“Very clean bar. Italian beef sandwich and Sicilian pizza was delicious. Bar staff seems to be very friendly. There is quite a lack of parking at this facility. There was only three people in the bar. Went on a Monday before 4th of July 2024.

I did hear they have karaoke on the weekend so hopefully I'll be able to check that out very soon.

If you have an opportunity I would definitely check out Cuzin's.“

“We had our Christmas Dinner there. It is a very nice venue for our family to enjoy food, fun and bonding time. This is not a restaurant so they do not serve food, however there was ample space to bring your spread and lay it out beautifully. The ambiance was great and there was plenty of room. Also, ample parking and the venue was easy to find. It was my first time there and I would definitely enjoy returning there in the future.“

“We feasted here, big time! Flavorful, elevated dishes and really interesting and unique cocktails. We also had good choices of wine. My favorite dish was a tie between the perfectly-done steak fries and the yummy succotash scallops. Good sauces with the grilled shrimp. Our table also indulged in the menu specials. No complaints, no notes. Everything was solid.“

“First time here and we had a great experience. Had wine tasting and a delicious meal served by a wonderful waitress. They have beautiful glass ware in the store as well as delicious wines to purchase. We will definitely come back again.“

He was extremely entertaining and super accommodating. He made our hibachi dinner experience the best we have ever had. The food was perfect and great portion sizes. My son even ordered Spider rolls and said they were amazing! My two teens and 1yr old enjoyed it immensely! Thank you all for the great celebration. We will be back for sure!!! Highly recommend to all!!“

“I like this place-we came at 8:20 pm for a half hour or so of fun. Quick and simple. Ten minutes after arriving we were harassed about them closing at 8:50 pm. Website says 9. Literally reminded maybe ten times no exaggeration about them closing. We didn’t want to redeem tickets just play a few games. Very frustrating and ruined our short quick fun for my kid.“

“Did a staycation for NYE and had brunch at South Side Social. The mimosas weren't bad and the buffet was somewhat limited. I want to visit again because their lunch/dinner meal has some appeal. They provide the food for the bar and the pizza and Buffalo shrimp were very good! We had extra cheese on the pizza but it wasn't necessary as the toppings were hearty and tasty. No food pics this time but I do want to revisit.“

“Great place to watch sports“

“Papa Dimitri our food was DELICIOUS tonite. the wings, of course, ate my fave, but your gyros are THE BEST. your son and his fiance are THE BEST. thank you so much!!“

“Tony’s hits the spot every time. Dropped about $19 for the regular Philly cheesesteak with fries, and it was worth every penny. The sandwich was packed with juicy steak, onions, peppers, and gooey cheese—no skimping here. Fries were crispy and seasoned just right. Service was quick, and the staff was friendly. If you're on the South Side and craving a solid cheesesteak, Tony's is the move.“

“My family hosted my brother’s repast here this past Saturday. Everything was AMAZING!!!….. the food, the service, the actual seating, the atmosphere…. EVERYTHING!!! Liz, you and your staff are the BEST!!! We really appreciate you and how you handled our delicate situation from beginning to the very end!!! God Bless You!!!
Leslie and Debbie“

“Great food and Great service! Thank you for serving us through the Pandemic! You're much appreciated!“

“Friendly and informative staff. It is a single table inside if you want to eat real quick. Food came out within 15 mins. They offer salad instead of fries. I enjoyed the jambalaya, it comes with a yellow rice. My husband enjoyed the chopped cheese. Will be back to try other items. Good vibes here and clean.“
