Cara Mia Cafe

Was excited to try this restaurant and was extremely disappointed that it did not live up to some of the local comments received. Food was g good. Some excellent, some not so memorable, but better than the average Italian restaurant in the area. However, the service was a true damper to the evening. Hostess has a lot to learn about treating customers in a manner that they will want to return. Customers do not want to be told off when they come to your restaurant. Waitress was curt and non-friendly. There are much better restaurants in Hackettstown that want your business and will treat you as someone they want to come back again and again. Cara Mia does not operate that way to all patrons. It is hit or miss as far as if you are treated like a returning customer or not. more

Stunning little elegant dining. The first time I visited Cara Mia I knew this place was one of the best kept secrets in Warren county ! The food presentation and taste was magnificent. The atmosphere is Charming due to the small size of the dining room but elegant just the same. It is a BYOB place, so bring an excellent wine to compliment to extra ordinary food ! I will not write a review unless I have visited the at least 4 times. This is because I am a big fan of consistency and believe anyone can get lucky once or twice. The prices are reasonable for five star food, service and atmosphere. You probably will drop a Bill for you and your date. Good News, It's worth it ! more
