Gia Mia Naperville

We went for dinner yesterday, Ambience is sooo decent and tried the Brick Chicken and Gia Pasta , both were incredibly flavorful. The cocktails were great too! The Solstice Spiritz was sweet and tasted really good, and the Margarita de Pera, made with spiced pear and cinnamon sugar, was a perfect combination. A special shout-out to our server, Jalena. She suggested the butterscotch bread pudding, and it was absolutely delicious! Finally felt a fine dine in experience!

Gia Mia in downtown Naperville has quickly become one of those rare places where great food, great atmosphere, and great value all meet in one spot. The moment you walk through the door, you’re met with that classic, welcoming hospitality that feels like it was borrowed straight from the good old days—warm smiles, good service, and a sense that they’re genuinely happy you came in. The food is outstanding. The wood-fired pizzas alone are worth the trip—perfect crust, fresh toppings, and that comforting, rustic flavor that only a real oven can deliver. And if you needed any more reason to fall in love, they offer 50% off pizzas all day on Mondays. Yes, half off. All day. It’s the kind of deal that makes you look around the room wondering if everyone else knows how lucky they are. Their small plates and pastas are just as impressive. Everything feels intentional, fresh, and crafted with care. Whether it’s a weeknight dinner or a special outing, the flavors truly shine. And let’s talk drinks—because Gia Mia knows how to keep the week interesting. On Wednesdays, wine by the glass is 50% off, which pairs dangerously well with their sharable dishes. A good glass of wine at half price has a way of turning a regular Wednesday into something worth celebrating. The service is consistently friendly and attentive without ever making you feel rushed. Even on busy nights, you feel like a valued guest, not just another table. In a town full of great dining options, Gia Mia stands out by doing everything well—quality food, a warm atmosphere, and weekly deals that make you wonder why more places don’t follow their lead. Five stars without hesitation.

I would definitely recommend this place to everyone! The food was 10/10, the atmosphere 10/10, and the service 10/10. I’m usually very picky about restaurants, but this one truly made my day. A special thank you to our server — I wish I remembered her name! She gave us amazing recommendations and made special adjustments to our dishes just the way we wanted. All the staff were very friendly, attentive, but not overbearing. Grazie! ????????

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really enjoyed my meal here! The food was delicious and served fresh, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our waitress was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Great service and great food — I’ll definitely be coming back!

### 5-Star Review for Gia Mia - Naperville I can't say enough good things about Gia Mia in Naperville—it's become our go-to spot for authentic Italian comfort food without the pretension. Tucked away in the historic former library building on Washington Street, the vibe is cozy and inviting, with warm lighting, exposed brick, and that perfect buzz of happy diners. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a romantic dinner, the atmosphere feels like a hidden gem in bustling downtown Naperville. We started with the wild mushroom toast and prosciutto & fig bruschetta—both were absolute showstoppers. The mushrooms were earthy and perfectly caramelized, and the bruschetta had this sweet-savory balance that had us fighting over the last bite. For mains, the Bruno sausage pizza stole the show: thin, chewy Neapolitan-style crust baked in their imported brick oven, loaded with fresh toppings that transport you straight to Rome. My partner raved about the short rib gnocchi—pillowy dumplings in a rich, velvety sauce that melts in your mouth. They even nailed the vegan options with creative salads like the beet + farro, proving inclusivity without skimping on flavor. Service was spot-on: our server was knowledgeable, friendly, and not pushy, making great recs from their craft cocktail list (that spicy margarita twist? Chef's kiss). Portions are generous, prices are fair (lunch specials around $14 are a steal), and the half-price wine Wednesdays are calling my name for next time. Bonus: easy reservations via Resy, and the outdoor seating is prime for people-watching on a sunny day. If you're in Naperville craving wood-fired perfection and farm-to-table freshness, Gia Mia is non-negotiable. We've been three times in the last few months, and each visit gets better. Do yourself a favor—book a table tonight! ????????

Nov 2025 Our first time. What a memorable experience. The Tuscany shrimp polenta was great

We love this place ! Our most favorite dish is blackened shrimp. I’m glad they are consistent with this one dish But slightly disappointed today with their new bruschetta recipe, it literally tasted like dessert bread and jam. I miss the earlier version of bruschetta. We also ordered blackened salmon with spinach Which was kind of okay, Not the best. Tiramisu for dessert was good. Service and atmosphere is always cheerful and welcoming, so we love visiting this place.
