Review on Mio Restaurant
"Nuevo Latino" with an authentic "Urban" Latin twist. Proprietor and long time D.C. restaurateur Manuel Iguina takes back to his Urban Latin roots with a menu that reaches back to the big cities of Latin America, seeking new regional spins. More than just Peruvian, Puerto Rican, or Mexican, Mio showcases the localized urban cuisine from Lima, San Juan or Distrito Federal. The traditional takes on a non-pretentious elegance and playful slant with signature dishes such as "Bacalaito Tempura Shrimp Salad", "Croquetas de Arroz con Pollo", or "MiniMoFo" -a savory, shrimp stew infused version of the world famous Puerto Rican "mofongo". Just south of Thomas Circle and a few walking blocks from the vibrant U St. corridor, Mio also features modern American selections in a convivial atmosphere where customers are treated with Latin hospitality. Don't miss "Puerto Rico Fridays" happy hours - with a genuine roasted lechon and expanded Puerto Rican menu.
