Upon entering, the cozy, rustic atmosphere immediately envelops diners, setting the stage for a delightful dining experience that marries tradition with a sprinkle of contemporary charm. It's not just the decor that wins hearts here but the tantalizing aroma of garlic, herbs, and simmering sauces that beckons.

The menu is a well-curated journey through Italy's most beloved flavors.

The pasta selections are extensive, with each dish promising its own unique flair. The Fettuccine Alfredo boasts a creamy texture that brings comfort to every bite.

It doesn't stop there. Mike's Italian Pizza, with its thin crispy crust topped generously with quality ingredients, is a crowd-pleaser. The Margherita Pizza, with its perfect balance of mozzarella, basil, and ripe tomatoes, is simplicity done right. Of course, no Italian meal is complete without dessert, and the Tiramisu at Mike's is reputed to be the best in the area—a layered masterpiece that's both creamy and hinting at deep espresso notes.

This establishment has also made its mark with a wine list that thoughtfully accompanies the menu.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Dave Potts
Stayed at the AmericInn attached to Mike's while in the Baraboo area. Decided to eat dinner here. We had a medium size pizza and it was really big for medium size. It was cooked to perfection, very good taste, and the price was great also. The wait staff was friendly and attentive, refilling drinks as needed and checking how everything was. We had a conversation with the owner. He was very nice to talk with. The restaurant was large and very clean with nice decor. Overall, I highly recommend the place.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — James Langan
Under normal circumstances, I will wait until I've eaten at an establishment 3 or more times before I leave a review, but in this instance I'm making an exception. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Mike's Italian...the first time my wife and I came here we'd both ordered the Chicken Marsala, and it was simply delicious. Our waitress, Anna, was extremely attentive and definitely helped with recommendations...I was very much torn between 3 options and was grateful for the help. I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Wendy, as well as Mike...and it was certainly a pleasure... extremely nice people who certainly made my wife and I want to come back. On our second trip I'd ordered the House Stromboli and it, too, was fantastic...a very ample portion to boot. Our waiter, Cody, was also extremely personable and very attentive. I am very, very much looking forward to subsequent visits here...and am *very* much looking forward to trying their white pizza. As a last aside, if Cody sees this....I WAS NOT FULL!

We were at Mikes February 6th A very very busy Friday night. We were an unexpected group of 10 ladies.😂 We wanted to thank Mikes staff and Mike himself for the service! His hostess came to us made sure our drinks were full, and checked on our food making sure everything was good. We did wait a bit because it was a busy Friday night. Mike came out of the kitchen to greet us and many customers around us. I thought that was wonderful. So, we came back as a bigger group on Saturday the 7th and ate at Mikes again😂❤️❤️❤️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Flbeachygirl
Our group of 5 are from out of town, and we were looking for a restaurant to satisfy everyone's palate. We wanted a quality homemade meal - no fast food. We found Mike's and are really glad we did. Excellent food and service. We had pizza, cheese ravioli, the house burger, and a Philly cheesesteak. Would definitely return.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Luke Renn
The service was absolutely amazing. Servers and staff were so friendly to my daughter. Would definitely go here again. Pizza was great. Pasta was great. I'll have to pass on the cheesy bread and mushrooms appetizers for next time. They were OK.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Elva Garcia
The food is phenomenal! My kids LOVED the fresh and authentic new york pizza. Tim our server was awesome! Kuddos to the chef! Must try the tomato bisque! Delicious! The chicken parm was very tasteful. Shrimp alfredo was also delicious. We will definitely come back!
