    First time for my sons(15 and 9)! They enjoyed immensely! My wife, our friend and myself had a great time. It’s a tradition to meet up the top of the year and have brunch. I had the pot roast and it was NOT HOT! We had fried at the table a could have times and they were cold too. My 9 year old didn’t care for the pot pie because he thought it was crust on the top and bottom. It was only crust on top. They did replace with chicken tenders for him. Wife and son had burgers. They say they were pretty good. Missing lettuce and tomatoes. Our friend had a chicken Caesar and the chicken was very dry and old looking. He ate it but didn’t enjoy. Our service was great (Stephanie) but was really busy. It was a busy day. But she did her best and was very nice.

    My fish entree was excellent, vegetables great but the potatoes were not good. We had a table in the bar, which was great and the noise level was fine.

    I had the gumbo grits and catfish. It was tasty. The music was a good vibe. Usually there is a table limit, but it was a Saturday towards the end and we were able to stay and enjoy. The server was very friendly and checked in frequently. The margarita tower was a “good time”.

    We celebrated my husband's birthday at Bella Mia. Everything was perfect! The appetizers and food were delicious, and the portions were large. The service was fantastic, and the restaurant was nicely decorated for Christmas. We will for sure go back again!
