Was a fan of Mida’s South End location, so we wanted to try out this location. We were pleasantly surprised at how large the space is, and appreciated how beautifully decorated it is.

I was impressed with how good the mussels were!! I also had eggplant parma sandwich that was very flavorful. Slightly toasted bread and soft cheesy and mouthwatering eggplant. Wow!

So great – absolutely love MIDA. This location is no exception. The food is perfect… I forgot to take the photo before we dug in! The Cacio e Pepe gnocchi has a little lemon zest on it, which might be my new favorite thing. But the short rib lasagna and tomato pie were equally delicious. Our waitress Julia was awesome too!

I visited MIDA for the first time on Valentine’s Day with a friend of mine. We were both very excited to try this place! Even though we were disappointed the regular menu would not be an option that evening, the 3-course menu had some good options. My experience did not start great as I waited 15 minutes to be greeted once I was sat. My friend and I enjoyed the majority of the food aside from the dessert which was not our favorite. I try it again but only when their regular menu is available and not on a holiday (90-minute table limit).

We visited this black owned establishment on Thursday, July 28, 2022. I made a reservation on Open Table. We mistakenly went to the Boston location initially which was closed. Keep in mind the Boston location doesn’t open until 4 pm on Thursdays. Upon arrival there was street parking by the hour for $2 which you can update via your phone with the given website if you need more time. Otherwise keep in mind you will be ticketed like we were for $15 since we missed adding more time with payment. Upon arrival to the restaurant it was clean, modern, and upscale. The host was professional and seated us right away at a lovely table. We didn’t need the reservation and the host didn’t check to verify it. Our waitress was Maria who was from Greece and she was very attentive, professional, and nice. We ordered the following menu items: alba bambini, cocchi americano, arancini, bucatini All amatriciana, crispy chicken sandwich, coffee gelato, and citrus cake. The drinks came out first and were the start of a great experience. The alba bambini drinks were nonalcoholic and refreshingly sweet. The presentation was really cute with deliciously sweet dark marinated cherries. I order the cocchi americano drink in the spritz format. It was the sweetest selection on the drink menu and wasn’t too bad. It was refreshing and had a bit of a bitter taste, but was definitely still sweet. We did receive bread and oil on the table and Maria even brought us more bread when we requested it. The bread was warm and freshly baked which paired so well with the oil. The arancini appetizers came out shortly after was very delicious. The four cheese balls were crispy with ooey gooey goodness inside. They were so flavorful and with the tomato sauce included it was the perfect dipping additive. Also they had a great presentation as well. I did use the restroom while I was here which was clean and had beautiful portraits of notable black women including Nina Simone, Phylicia Rashad, and Debbie Allen. This restaurant also had nice patio seating for patrons to enjoy in the front and the back of the business. We received our main entrees about 6 minutes after our appetizers. The bucatini All amatriciana was a flavor explosion. It was seasoned so well! The noodles were cooked to perfection and the tomato sauce danced with the pork on the plate. This dish was also hot temperature wise to the point the steam was coming out when it was brought to the table. My mom enjoyed her chicken sandwich and decided to eat it open faced. It came with a side salad which she also enjoyed. She did stated the chicken could’ve had a tad bit more salt, but it didn’t take away from the flavor overall. She did tell the waitress to put the the bacon jam on the side which she didn’t care for. It was great to have a waitress listen to a request because that jam would’ve ruined the sandwich for her. I do like that this business has a pride flag in the window meaning they welcome guests of all identities. We did decided to order dessert after we boxed up our entrees which I listed in the menu item list we ordered. About 20 minutes after our entrees we received our dessert. The coffee gelato was really tasty. It had a nice balanced coffee flavor which wasn’t overwhelming like coffee can be. The gelato paired so well with the cake which had a bit of a tartness due to the blueberry guava jam topping. The gelato definitely helped to cut the slight tart flavor and was such a great dessert pairing with the balance. I must say the Newton location is much bigger than the Boston location. I haven’t been in the Boston location since it was closed when we went accidentally. With that being said I do know it would be hard to top the Newton location since it is very swanky inside and has great service and food. We had a great experience overall and it was a great first impression for me as my introduction to Boston. I know this restaurant is ranked as one of the top Italian places in Boston. I would highly recommend everyone in Boston visit the Newton location and patronize this black owned business.

We decided to try out this location of Mida due to seeing it on tv. To our expectations, it was exactly what we pictured it to be. Very clean and polished restaurant with a modern vibe.
