Welcome to Mio!

Located just south of Thomas Circle in downtown Washington, D.C., Proprietor Manuel Iguina takes back to his Latin roots with a seasonal menu that showcases the creative urban Latin American cuisine of large metropolises such as Lima, México City, San Juan, Buenos Aires and São Paulo. Always focusing on fresh, local products, Mio also features Modern American selections in a convivial atmosphere where customers are treated with genuine affection.

Since opening in 2007, a number of great chefs drove Mio towards avant garde, four-star dining, leading to our maturation as a showcase for refined Urban Latin American cuisine. Signature dishes such as Bacalaito Coated Shrimp Salad or Oxtail Mofongo represent our open hearted attitude to delivering a fun experience with care and attention to unpretentious refinement. Mio’s recognized internal architecture is commented for its accessible elegance and clean lines and spacial freshness. The restaurant’s vibrant bar also showcases traditional as well as urban Latin American mixes and specialty cocktails such as the sweet/piquant rum Spicy Passion, and quite possibly the best Mojito in Washington, DC. The wine list is worldly and extensive, each wine carefully tasted by our staff familiar with our menu. The great beverage line ups partner with innovative happy hours specials and a compelling bar menu.

Mio – Mine, Yours, Ours, Salud!!
