Ciasa Mia

I’m not sure if they’re having an off day or what, but our experience definitely did not live up to how others have reviewed this place. For €85, the quantity of food was not worth it, the taste was subpar, and service was average. They must’ve changed up their menu because out of all the dishes, only two were good - the duck speck and the dessert. Let me review each course one by one: 1. Appetizers - tapioca chips with radish cream, carrot cake roll, and pork lard with bread - none of these stood out and lacked complexity in flavor and texture 2. Appetizers 2 - egg yolk - this is quite unique and tasted decent 3. Appetizer 3 - Parmesan puff with mushroom mayo and beet root with horseradish - this was okay for me 4. Course 1 - crab filling dumpling with chicken stock - this was interesting in a bad way. With the stock the bottom became soggy very quickly, the flavor was quite mild 5. Course 2 - duck speck - this was unique and delicious, I liked how it was presented, and the pickled onion really balances things out 6. Course 3 - pasta with almond filling and veal broth - this was okay, again flavor is super mild 7. Course 4 - fish sausage - by far the worst dish of the night. The sausage was extremely mushy and lacked any complexity in flavor. For the main protein this is a major disappointment and felt like they’re being cheap 8. Course 5 - dessert - this was delicious, I liked how it seems like a heavy dessert but the ice cream and other parts actually made it less heavy Service also leaves a lot to be desired - after we finished dessert and informed the waitress that we don’t need coffee or tea, she left us there for 20 minutes without bringing the bill or checking in on us. We had to try to catch her and ask for the bill. When I put down my credit card, she still gave the receipt to my fiance to sign even though she saw me taking it out of my wallet

Absolutely outstanding! So glad I stumbled on to this place for ma food blog review. It’s off the beaten path in a small and cozy little space. Francesca made us feel so welcome! The food was delicious.

Beautiful restaurant, incredible food, and excellent service. A hidden gem of Paris. Dog friendly!

One of a perfect dinners in my life A bit expensive but, it's worth to pay for it! The mood was quiet and cozy Server was so kind and nice And all foods were so great! It's Italian in French but I became to go Italy to have dinners like this I started with a starter of vegi chip/prendang/bread and a cooked egg (it was cooked inside but looked rare outside but was so nice and creamy with truffle sauce) Then another breas with olive oil Beans with cream and crunch Another breads Cabbage with cabbage sauce Gnocchi with vegi chip Duck with cooked potato (I couldn't take a pictur of potato but with was so soft and tasty) Vanilla sauce and bread The last sweets was the greatest Kakao chip and cream, and there was strawberry sorbet inside! Enjoy perfect Italian in France

Absolutely the best meal of our trip to Paris and maybe in my lifetime! The ambiance, service, food presentation and flavors were all outstanding.

A delightful menu de déjeuner (lunch). Plates are thoughtfully creative and nicely presented with interesting combinations. The portions are not big (i.e. not North American portions) but the value is in the quality and uniqueness. Service was prompt and attentive with nice explanations for each serving. A quaint and even romantic setting offering northern Italian recipes.

A heavenly experience with Chef Samuel and Francesca. Trust them with all.

This is, hands down, the best place I have ever eaten in Paris (I’ve lived here for two years). My boyfriend took me here for my birthday and we were blown away by the kindness, professionalism and outright passion the owners have for not only the food but the experience. This truly was a magical experience. Every dish was a piece of art. It helps that it all tasted amazing, too. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience.
