Mia's Italian Kitchen Spaghetti Alla Carbonara Price

One of Mia's Italian Kitchen's bestsellers, Spaghetti Alla Carbonara, features a Roman pasta preparation using cured pork and egg. The dish combines spaghetti noodles with rendered guanciale, cage-free eggs, and grated Pecorino Romano cheese. The heat from the pasta cooks the egg mixture to create a sauce without the addition of cream. Diners have the option to add proteins such as grilled chicken breast, a half meatball, or grilled shrimp for an additional charge. The price for this entree is $25.30.

The egg-based sauce contrasts with the Alfredo versions found at Olive Garden, adhering to the recipe that relies on fat emulsification. Guests order the Beef Bolognese Lasagna or Rigatoni Alla Bolognese as alternative pasta courses. The Chicken Parmigiana offers a breaded meat option, while Tiramisu serves as a dessert course. A can of Coca-Cola provides a beverage option to cut through the pork and cheese fat. Mia's Italian Kitchen Spaghetti Alla Carbonara reviews mention the saltiness of the guanciale balances the egg yolks. Patrons mention the pasta texture remains firm to support the sauce.
