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

    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….

    Our food was fantastic, start to finish. The pacing was perfect. Our server was so friendly and attentive. The low to reasonably moderate noise level made for easy conversation. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
