Kara Mia was the first restaurant I went post covid and during Ramadan. The place is very nice and clean and the servers were great. I didn't know this before going there, but during Ramadan they have their Ramadan menu and don't serve all the regular food they usually have. We ordered steak platters and chicken platters. Each of these options came with soup, salad or rice, pasta, and either two chicken breasts with two different sauces OR chicken and steak (both) as the meat. It was a lot of food! But they were willing to serve smaller portions when asked. I hope to go there again after Ramadan and try a few other things. Overall, it was a good experience and was happy to be there with the people I had with me.
Kara Mia is where we had catered for a wedding in the family in the past. At the time, we had a horrible experience (this was 6+ years ago), but at the same time, at the time, management was different and location was in Mississauga. From that one bad experience before, I said I'd never want to try Kara Mia again - but I changed my mind when I learned it was under new management (and has been for a few years now).

The owners are very welcoming, friendly and nice. Interiors are nice and comfy. Love the fact that they're following the covid protocol. From checking your temperature on arrival, to getting your info down for contract tracing, to placing shields between the tables & also offering booths.

The food was great and well seasoned. There are a lot of items to choose from on the menu, including kid-friendly items too. The only suggestion I would make is to have more variety in sauces offered, as I found sauces mainly offered were dishes with a saffron sauce. There was also rosé and Alfredo, but I would love to see some more.

Loved how cheesy the saffron poutine was. The steak was well done and chicken wasn't too dry which was great. The highlight for us was the breaded shrimp.
