Mia's - Pryor

Wow, this place is fantastic! We ordered steaks, a fresh salad, delicious pasta, and a side of amazing KC strip steak. The steak was nearly an inch thick and beautifully cooked.

You won't find a better steak anywhere else than in Tulsa. The steak is always perfectly cooked and delicious. The breadsticks are hot and flavorful. The restaurant also offers great prices for children.

Due to COVID restrictions, only tables were occupied and there were people on the floor. I waited patiently, and eventually someone came over to ask if I had been helped.

Mia knows meatballs! Here, they are the real deal! Unquestionably authentic! This restaurant has been in business for 19 years! You have to be liked by the community to survive that long! It is a clean comfortable restaurant on highway 69 south of Pryor Creek OK. Their success is possibly due to the mildly to unseasoned home style versions of Italian food. I think the food is mildly seasoned to satisfy the local Okie palates. Some folks just don 't like anything spicer than cream gravy. The lack of Italian flavor was prominent. I couldn 't detect a hint of garlic, basil, or oregano in in anything served. The meals started with two small simple salads. Fresh, crisp with decent dressing. They were served with fresh made bread sticks sloppily drowned in olive oil. I went with a Chicken Parmesan and a side of Fettuccine. The chicken breast was a large thin slab, with a light egg battered, pan fried. An unseasoned tomato sauce and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese completed its transition to a Chicken Parmesan. Not a flavor tsunami, but a good portion of food. The fettuccine was fair. A little garlic would have helped to liven up both. My wife went with the Chicken Marsala. Very nice! It was also large chicken breast that had the black cross hatch branding from being grilled. It was covered in a delicious gravy with lots of fresh mushrooms. Her side was the spaghetti. Same bland tomato sauce as on my meal. The Marsala is a good 'ole Okie meat and gravy meal. Recommended! A side of mashed garlic potatoes would have made this perfect. Skip the Italian sides here and order fries! I don 't think the food today was prepared by a seasoned Italian chef. A good liberal application of Italian spices is desperately needed.The locals probably wouldn 't like it though? The authentic meat balls ; first item on the menu under Entrees. Check the menu picture. Nothing could tipify a small town cafe better that that single menu item!

You can't get a better steak without driving to Tulsa. Expensive, but steak always is. Their breadsticks are hot and full of flavor. Great prices on kids meals. I would give them five stars if they had more comfortable seating.
