New American Restaurants near Park Forest, IL

“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.“

“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“
