We were looking for a new place to celebrate my wife's birthday, and she selected this one. It's…read morestraight off of I-88, exiting north on the left side. First off, the place is very nice looking - feast your eyes on the photos. Angled windows in front, nice table spaces, art at every table, a nice oil candle, and good enough lighting that you can read the menu without wrecking the intimate nature of a booth. The menu (photos attached) is loaded with good stuff. For an appetizer, we selected their Imperial American Wagyu Filet Carpaccio, which came with thinly sliced Wagyu Filet, topped with black truffle, king crab, kaluga caviar, panna grattato, and other tasty stuff. It was served on a white plate with bread, and was incredibly tasty. My wife ordered their Lobster Linguini (on the bill) or Linguini Aragosto on the menu. She enjoyed it very much, and even took some home. On the other hand, I went with their Butcher's Butter Spinalis which was a Ribeye Cap. It was very tender, very tasty, nicely seasoned and cooked as requested at medium rare temperature. With that, we ordered their Rosemary Potatoes, which were "family sized" (enough for two or three) and tasted great. We closed out with a cannoli which was two-sided with two different end preps, which was excellent. To work with all this, I needed a wine which would work for the seafood and the meat, so I selected a Grosjean Pinot Noir, which worked great with both. Service was very very very good - regular checks, food timing was good with each part coming out with enough time to easily finish it before the next course came out. Our waitstaff Ashley kept us watered, and even removed the cork from the wine using a wine key while standing. Nicely done! This is a great place to celebrate a special occasion, or just to go for a nice, relaxed meal. They do store their wine horizontally (like you are supposed to, see the picture) and keep it out of the sun. They also have a deli on the west end with reduced hours, so if you want something I'd suggest going there before you arrive so you don't miss it.

Our waitress was friendly and happy to answer any questions or offer suggestions. We visited on Mother's Day, so the restaurant was offering a special menu. While it would've been nice to also view the regular menu, we understood it might be due to the fact that everything is homemade and made to order. The calamari was perfectly cooked--not overly breaded--and the bruschetta was delicious, especially since it's one of my favorite appetizers. The complimentary bread paired nicely with the olive oil. My personal favorite was the stuffed salmon, it was flavorful, and served with an orzo-style grain. The rest of the table enjoyed their meals as well, and everything we tried was thoughtfully prepared and tasty.

The walkway to the restaurant was decorated with lights and Christmas ornaments. The windows all had wreaths. We walk in without reservations and were seated immediately upstairs. The restaurant has two levels. It was pretty busy for a weeknight but our server checked on us right away. We were brought bread and the menu was explained. We decided to order the fixed price meal. It came with a choice of appetizer, two entrees, dessert and a bottle of wine. We went with the toasted ravioli appetizer. My entree was the Misto Di Mare. Angel hair pasta with shrimp, scallops and salmon. My friend had the pasta with shrimp and mushrooms. The food was delicious. The restaurant is so cozy and I loved how it looked like a restaurant fit for a Hallmark Christmas movie. The music in the background was wonderful. At one point someone came out and sang Happy Birthday in Italian and then sang That's Amore. What an amazing dinner at an amazing restaurant. Highly recommend !

This place is amazing!…read more From the awesomely landscaped outside patio to the beautiful inside ambiance this place is the bomb. Came for a work dinner with about 16 people and just had a heck of a great experience. They took us upstairs into our own area that had its own bar and servers. It was dark and lush like a true Italian place should be. Our servers were amazing! One of them even serenaded us with song twice in the evening. He was shocked when I sang the Dean Martin song with him too! The food was amazing... we started with a trio of aps, bruschetta, calamari, and a capris salad that were all outstanding! Then for my meal I got one of the specials... the sea food cannelloni with shrimp, crab and muscles. It was set in a pond of the most luscious cream sauce that was seriously heavenly!

I am an Italian restaurant snob because most of the time I can make it at home 1000% better. Not in this case! The layers of flavors and quality was totally next level. Being set in a home converted to a restaurant lends to the vibe of eating at my Italian Grandmas house. They are not open late and last seating is around 8:30. Our party of six had a reservation for 8pm. The place was full when we got there and would recommend reservations. Looking forward to my next visit.

Less than zero stars. Tasteless food in portion sizes befitting a five-year-old…read more The writing was on the wall when we entered. The hostess was very rude and far too into herself. Seating people annoyed her as she did her best to make our group feel like they were overly burdensome by dining here. Our waiter wasn't much better. He never offered us bread or read any specials to us, and didn't refill drinks particularly well. He came to our table minutes after we sat down and asked, 'did we want something'. He said something odd the second time he came back too. At least he smiled, unlike the hostess who shows a clear disdain for people. Staff aside, believe it or not the real problem here is the food. Three of the four people at our table had the grilled mahi mahi. The cut itself was about 3x2 inches, and maybe 1/2 inch thick. If you cut it right, you got six little pieces out of it. The side was a 'salad'. This consisted of three folk full servings. And that was it. I've seen serving sizes three times this size for children under the age of 10. The dish might have been persuasive if the mahi had some flavor, but it didn't. It was cooked improperly (for all three people at our table) and seemingly without any seasoning. The fourth person at our table had a flatbread. The toppings on it could be fit into a 3x3 square and the portion size was utterly laughable. As we left, I gave thought to speaking to a manager, but a hostess that's as shallow and mean as theirs probably isn't being led by a thoughtful individual who cares for their patrons. My advice is to steer clear. If you want excellent Italian food, go elsewhere. If you want to be treated kindly, go elsewhere. If you want a serving size larger than something appropriate for a 5-year-old, go elsewhere. I can provide a dozen excellent suggestions within 20 miles. An embarrassment to Batavia, easily one the worst dining experience I've had in our area in 20 years.

They have a kind of choose your own adventure method- noodle, sauce, veggie, meat. Their noodles were very high quality, I wouldn't be surprised if they were making it themselves. The staff was very patient with my loud and confused Italian family. I'm sure we will be back for another birthday. Also the prices were very reasonable for a big group. They had a good wine selection with reasonably priced bottles. My only complaint is they are currently only serving canned cocktails. A few of us are pretty into cocktails and we were looking to get martinis that night. Hopefully they will be adding more drinks.

It was perfectly crisp, tender, and seasoned to perfection. If you go, do not skip this. * The Pizza: Truly fantastic. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and a proper oven. The crust had that perfect chew-to-char ratio that only a great wood-fired pizza gets. Geneva has a lot of dining options, but Gia Mia stands out as a clear winner. Whether you're a local or just visiting for the day, make sure this is on your list. I'll definitely be back!

Nothing seemed to be made in house, which is disappointing considering the price of each item.
