Opened in 1991, Max a Mia was named “Best New Restaurant” by Connecticut Magazine in its first year, and “top-grossing restaurant in its size” by Restaurant Hospitality. The restaurant is now in the good hands of Executive Chef Bob Peterson, who has brought an exciting new energy to the restaurant.

Max A Mia is the quintessential Italian experience in the Greater Hartford area. It also continues to garner awards and accolades. Featuring a traditional Italian menu, it utilizes an authentic brick oven that produces stone pies with unmatched flavor. Traditional veal, pork and pasta dishes, as well as inventive risotto offerings, set the mood for desserts including tiramisu and white chocolate polenta cake.

An extraordinary and comfortable 25-foot granite bar has elevated Max A Mia to the social place in the Farmington Valley. The dining room features wood and tile, warmly lit by custom fixtures to create a sophisticated and luxurious – yet friendly, family environm

Other guests behavior children using screens and up and down from seats. Other adjacent table loud talking young woman about all her dating experiences. Not the fault of the restaurant. Guests should be aware how they impact others enjoyment

Great food. Salad greens, especially Caesar may have been a bit not fresh-fresh. Main courses outstanding. Service excellent.

Amazing meal and fantastic service. We stuck with our favorites - and they remain favorites. The coconut cake is a delightful treat; the chicken parm is delicious. Lots of leftovers to look forward to eating as the work week begins….
