Reviews for Mia's Cafe in Madison, AL
This place has just a family atmosphere! The owners and staff are always so welcoming. The food is fresh and delicious!
I got there before 11a on a Sunday and was told they're no longer serving breakfast. The whole reason I went was for their... advertised breakfast, but I decided to give their lunch a try anyway. It didn't take long to get seated. Be warned it is noisy,if you have anyone in your party who is sound-sensitive. It has a concrete floor, they play Americana 50s-ish music, and it's acasual environment where everyone speaks loud enough to be heard at their table over the music and room noise. Every singlestaff member was respectful and courteous. It took inexplicably long for my meat & 3 to be served, though. When the meal wasserved, my meatloaf was cool throughout and my veggies were almost too hot to eat. The meatloaf serving was small, inproportion to the plate and large veggie servings. The red sauce on the meatloaf was a runny tomato sauce style instead of apaste-thickness. At least it was easy to scrape the sauce off the meatloaf. In terms of flavor, the black-eyed peas and greenbeans were perfectly seasoned in southern comfort food style. The green beans are not vegetarian-friendly, if that matters toyou, as they're seasoned and served with chunks of ham or bacon (so very tasty!). The cornbread tastes like Jiffy mix cornbread(a little on the sweet side and a little dry) and there's a tray of jellies on the table, if you like that on your cornbread.The fried okra tasted like baked okra - this is not a complaint - it was slightly crispy, hot throughout, and not greasy at all. The flavor of the okra was basic (think Cracker Barrel fried okra). The sweet tea did not disappoint (sweet, but not syrupyand not bitter). The peach cobbler, on the other hand, did disappoint. The cobbler was not served a la mode (i.e. there wasn'ta vanilla ice cream scoop). Ok, not a big deal, just a difference in menu/plating than most Southern food places. Thedisappointment was that it had only a couple peach slices and had barely any syrup/juice. It seemed more like a peach Read more
Cute local breakfast place to support. Pancakes and hash brown casserole were so good and our waitress was sweet and friendly.
Just moved to this side of town and tried this place for breakfast today. Exceeded ALL expectations! Friendly staff who are... willing to go above and beyond for their customers. Clean and such a cute atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back! Read more
UPDATE: We've been back several times. The staff is so friendly. We're greeted with multiple smiles. Still not keen on the booth... seating if someone's behind us, but they're usually leaving shortly after we arrive. The pancakes are good, the French toast isDELICIOUS. I usually add fresh strawberries to both, but they stand alone just fine. Everyone should try it. Great atmosphere,friendly staff, delicious food. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Very friendlystaff. The food is pretty good, you'll need to add your own salt/pepper to grits and eggs, but I don't think that's a bad thing.After ordering, our food arrived pretty quickly. It was hot and fresh. We walked in and were seated right away around 8 a.m.both times we came. Once after Daylight Savings and the other was a Friday. So it's not the best representation of how crowdedit can get, as we've seen a line before. I wasn't too fond of the seating. There were no dividers between the booths. My headwas about 5 inches away from the person behind me. Thankfully they left to pay shortly after we were seated. Aside from Covid, Idon't want to sit that close to a stranger while I'm eating. We'll likely be back, as long as it's not crowded. Read more
My son and I walked into the restaurant, was welcome with a big smile, and seated right away. I ordered the country fried steak... breakfast which was all cooked fresh and delicious. They made a Micky mouse pancake for my son which he enjoyed. I tasted thepancakes and they were light and fluffy. Great pancakes! The customer service was exceptional. We will definitely be goingback. Read more
