The food at Terra Mia is absolutely incredible, along with the service and well worth the wait, there isn’t really an host stand since the building is smaller so just keep that in mind! However within a few minutes of walking in with a line at the door they still took down our names and numbers! The staff did an excellent job and we will definitely be back!

Terra Mia, located in old Pooler, GA. Fantastic meal!! It looks like a hole in the wall place, but it definitely overcomes that with it service and food. The parking lot is not hugh, so get there early if you want to park close. We arrived a little before 6:00pm and I'm glad we did. No, wait, but it wasn't long and the place was full and lots of people doing carryout. We enjoyed delicious homemade bread while waiting and the meal took about 20min. Worth the wait! Service Fantastic, and super helpful. They serve beer and wine, not a ton of selections but enough. Make sure you come with an appetite because you will get full. We were a group of six, and everyone got something different, including one person who is Gluten-free and they were spot on. Everyone said their meal was excellent, and we all took home extras. I'll definitely be back....yum!!!

WOW, I was just passing through from a job site in SC on my way back home. Seeing this place well, looking for a gas station and was completely drawn in. I asked my waitress Mary to recommend something, she recommended the Rigatoni in Vodka Sauce and add meatballs. Holy cow, this is amazing. If you are anywhere remotely close to this place, you've got to try this. 10 out of 10, Mary was amazing.

We love Terra Mia! We only discovered it last year after living in the area for nearly 9 years. The food is always delicious, and their wine selection pairs well. Their staff is friendly and personable, which makes our visits that much better. 10 out of 10, can't wait to eat here again!

We found this place by happenstance and would definitely recommend. The menu was authentic, the selection was varied and the service was amazing. On a busy road, so just be mindful if you are coming.

Absolutely excellent food and service. We were headed back from a trip to Savannah, were looking for a local place to eat. and stumbled on this little gem. We had the shrimp asiago (my wife called it one of the best pasta dishes she's ever had), and I hzd the puntanesca del consigliere, which was rich and perfectly balanced for a dish that can be a bit difficult not to get too salty. Service also was excellent. Servers covered for each other, so that, for example, when one noticed we were low on water, she quickly jumped in to fill our glasses. Another example : We ordered the pear and gorgonzola salad and casually mentioned we'd split it. Instead of just bringing an extra plate, as is often the case,it came to the table as two perfectly made plates. Having cooked in some higher-end restaurants in my youth, I've learned to pick up on some things, and from what I saw from a window into the kitchen, it was clear early on the staff cares how they make and plate the dishes. The only downside is that (in a converted fast food or similar place?) it's small, and with a bar taking up part of the space, seating is limited (although on nice days there is outside seating too). We got there about 5 pm on a Thursday and by 5:45 the waiting line was about 15 deep. That may put off some people, but it's worth the wait.
