I am sorry but I don't recall our servers name, she was a young girl and very knowledgeable of all of the menu items. She was patient with us as she could tell we were catching up. All of our food was outstanding! Can't wait to bring my husband back.

The service was excellent, the noise level is very high, hard to hear. The food was fresh and very good. Enjoyed the pasta, pizza, and appetizers. Stand out food was the mushroom pasta and fig cheese prosciutto appetizer. Would go back to try other items on menu. Waitress was excellent and very nice. Did not feel rushed and dinner.

Took an employee out to lunch for his birthday. It was our first time dining here. The service was great! The food was great! The ambience was great! Looking forward to going back! I also am looking forward to the Naperville location to open because that will be even closer to me!😊

Gia Mia is outstanding. Downers Grove has a great patio, but it can be a little noisy during rush hour, due to the train crossing nearby. Service is friendly and prompt.
