So clean and cozy
Wendy B.

I'm visiting family in town and called in an order just to pick up this amazing garlic bread. They were just opening so it wasn't crowded yet. They had some folks in the outside tables they were bringing drinks to and a water bowl for their dogs. I love this downtown Waukesha area. Mia's sold a few years ago and I'm super happy the garlic bread remained. Looks like they did an update inside and it's just cozy in there. I'll be back for a actual dinner when time allows

I've eaten at Mia's a few times now, and my experiences have been hit or miss. The angel hair spaghetti I ordered recently was extremely watery more like spaghetti soup than a proper pasta dish. It was missing a lot of flavor, mostly just tasted acidic It's hard to explain. One of the reasons I ordered it was because it came with their famous garlic bread (my toddler loves garlic bread), but unfortunately the bread was so hard that neither of us could bite into it. In the past, I've ordered the hot beef sandwich and the first time it was absolutely amazing, but the second time it didn't live up to that same standard. I know every place can have off days, but the inconsistency has been disappointing. I really hope things improve.

Fettuccine Alfredo with broccoli and chickens
Anne G.

We love this Authentic Italian restaurant! We sat outside on sidewalk seating . It was a Beautiful Evening . Our waitress was friendly . :) we ordered minestrone soup , garlic bread , Caesar salad and an amazing pasta dish -fettuccine, broccoli and chicken . It was Amazing ! Definitely coming back . Met the owner he was attentitive and caring and helpful . Run Don't walk! If you are hungry for Italian food this is it !

6 raviolis for $20 lol (they were also ice cold inside and taste bad like they were frozen and thrown in a microwave)

Let me start by saying, we are not ones to complain unless something is REAL bad. And I don't think I've ever left a bad yelp review in my life. That being said, my wife just ordered from here. a pizza and an order of braised beef raviolis. it was $50. the pizza was ice cold, and there were 6 raviolis......6 raviolis for $20. I called to check if this was a mistake and I was told by the manager that this was the right portion size. I said ok and it was very unfortunate, then asked for her name. she refused to give it to me after asking 4 times, and then hung up on me! (I was not being rude or aggressive, just simply asked for her name) never again. do not waste your money at this place. terrible food, terrible management. (it was the manager on duty saturday 12/21 at 7:30 pm)

This is the lasagna.

Some of the worst service I have ever gotten in a restaurant. If I were you I would not chose this restaurant for any reason.

Okay, I will say right from the start that I am a fanboy of Tofte's Table. Have been coming here…read morefor many years and have always been impressed. Even had our 40th anniversary party here (on a Monday night). It's an excellent restaurant AND with reasonable pricing. The restaurant is small and intimate. There is a bar area, that has seating, or you several different areas of different size groups. A large table in the middle can accomodate a large group. The staff are always over-the-top amazing. The menu is tapas style has a large variety of dishes, and they change it occasionally to keep it fresh. There are several items that are always on our go-to list including the truffle brussel sprouts, chicken legs, pork belly, grilled veggies and the flourless chocolate cake. The owners Christina and Jason are terrific people. Super easy to work with when we planned our anniversary party.

Tofte's has small plates (tapas) so beware when looking at the menu. Prices seem extremely…read morereasonable until you see that you don't get full sized entrees. We started with the Brussels sprouts. They seemed deep fried, which isn't my preference, but we loved them. Garlic aoeli and Parmesan was an unexpectedly good flavor. They then served the roasted beet arugula salad. Although we don't like beets we loved this salad. One serving gave each of three of us a decent amount of salad. It had a great dressing applied in just the right amount and delicious pickled onions. The roasted beets seemed a touch mushy but were palatable to beet dislikes. Next we moved onto the scallops. We highly recommend them they arrived on a bed of pasta with some vegetables and a wonderful cream sauce. We loved them. Just be aware you need to say how many scallops you want. It's $8 per scallop. We finished with the beef tenderloin. Be careful with your requested doneness. We asked for medium rare and received rare. Otherwise they had a nice crunchy sear and a delicious flavor and accoutrements like mushrooms and the most smooth, creamy, and flavorful garlic mash I've ever had. It had five good sized slices. These three dishes filled up three of us. They serve one plate at a time which gives your meal a relaxed, social feel and also gives you time to digest. It takes about 20 minutes for the brain to receive the message you are full so I think dining at this relaxed pace allows you both to get the full flavors of each dish and also to eat just the right amount and not overeat. The only bad part of the meal was the espresso martini. Don't get it. I've tasted way better. Didn't even finish it because of not great taste.

What happened to Travieso Latin Fusion? We came expecting a nice dinner and instead got front-row…read moreseats to what felt like an unsupervised teen nightclub -- just with higher drink prices. Service was almost nonexistent unless you count servers yelling across the restaurant, and ignoring us. We had empty water pitchers, food that was slung on to a plate and looking at filthy tables. Professionalism was nowhere to be found. We kept wondering if a manager was going to appear... or if the entire place was being run by teenagers. It's honestly shocking because this used to be a well-managed spot with great food and a welcoming atmosphere. Now it feels chaotic, immature, and uncomfortable for anyone expecting an actual dining experience. If you're looking for dinner, you may want to keep driving. If you're looking for a loud, awkward social experiment with margaritas, you've found your place.

We choose to set up more formal dining in the dining room with buffet set up and a passed app. We had a speciality cocktail and mocktail option created for the event that guests could order at the bar - the pineapple gimlet was delicious! Their team worked with us on layout beforehand and even played our selected playlist on the sound system, they also helped me with some final set up with signs and some Christmas crackers I wanted to place at the tables. Everything ran smooth with food moving along at the times we discussed. Everyone enjoyed themselves and is still talking about it almost a whole week later!
