It can be so hard to find a great place that can be delicious, healthy. Often you can find one of the two. Well, look no further. Mia Bella features one of the healthiest Italian menus in the city with locally grown produce, gluten-free options and plant-based dishes. On top of all that, the service is great and location is beautiful! A great place for a night out.
Restaurants like this are not very common in Cleveland, so it makes Mia Bella even more of a great place. The menu has everything from Grilled Sea Scallops (Roasted Butternut Squash, Spinach, Mushrooms, Shallots, Tomatoes), Gnocchi alla Romana (Kalamata Olives, Onions & Peppers, Tomatoes, Shallot, Roasted Garlic), Chefs Favorite Pizza (Pesto, Chorizo Sausage, Onions & Peppers, Smoked Mozzarella) and so much more.
A great aspect of this menu is the fact that they offer gluten-free options for all of their pasta and pizzas making this a place that everyone can enjoy without having to worry if their food needs will be taken care of.
The menu also features a great selection of affordable soups and salads like the Albanian Chopped Salad (tomatoes, Romaine Hearts, Cucumber, Feta Cheese, Kalamata Olives, Onion), the spicy Zuppa di Pesce (prepared with Fresh Seafoods) and the Arugula Salad (arugula, Burratta, Roasted Red Peppers, Truffle Glaze) all of which are under $12.50!
They have a great wine menu to tie in with the Italian style of the restaurant and the wait staff are able to recommend on pairings if you feel unsure of what wine is best for you and your meal.
Located in the culturally colorful neighborhood of Little Italy, Mia Bella has quite a bit of Italian cuisine competition, but ultimately comes out on top thanks to its menu that is traditional, but features a modern twist that can appeal to everyone.
Mia Bella is one of the highest rated Italian eateries in the state. People from all over love it because the ambiance is authentic and unmatched due to the beautiful interior, the portions are large (and delicious!) and the quick, friendly service. The service part is key. The restaurant is usually always pretty busy especially on weekend evenings so it is recommended to make a reservation ahead of time, but they do try to get you in and out in a timely manner so you don’t have to wait so long for a table or your entree.
This is a great choice for a date night, it is beautiful and has that great ambiance to make a perfect night and being right in the heart of Little Italy! It is also great if you are craving comfort food, but not craving cheating on your diet.
