“ I finally got to try MICO in uptown and it was delightful. The restaurant/hotel is gorgeous with moody lighting. Our server was attentive and was a great help with navigating the menu. The Caesar salad is beyond delicious, one of the best I have had. It's done the way a Caesar salad should be done. The fries were seasoned to perfection and crispy. The filet mignon skewers were so tender and flavorful. I wanted more. The Peruvian chicken Milanese was incredible. The fresh salad on top with the potato purée and gravy was surprisingly a great combo. I didn't drink this night but they have a super creative drink menu for those who want to indulge. Overall, I had a fabulous night here and I can't wait to be back again!! Xoxo, Ruthy ”

“ My sister celebrated her 39th birthday this past Saturday at Mico's. It was dinner for 5 people and we got there around 8pm for an 8:30pm reservation. We parked with valet for $28, which I thought was quite steep but the guys were pleasant and helpful. We checked in with the lovely hostess who had such a warm smile on her face. She even obliged in taking pictures of us. Shortly after, we headed to the dining room to be seated. The restaurant wasn't too busy for a Saturday evening so it almost felt like we had the place to ourselves. Our waitress came over and provided us with some menus and took our drink orders. I settled on hot green tea with lemon and honey. My sister and cousins got specialized cocktails/mocktails that were not on the menu. For our meal, my sister got the veggie paella, my cousins had the salmon and chips & dip, and I had sweet plantains and the truffle mushrooms. The mushrooms were so delicious, as were the plantains. I wasn't hungry so I opted for side dishes. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and the menu was priced moderately. The ambiance of the restaurant is also captivating. The lit up bar leading into the kitchen, the open space concept in the dining area, and the private dining room all add to the simplicity, yet uniqueness of the space. ”
“ Had 8oz steak with the chimichurri & plantains as a side for drinks I had a Bohemian Gold and Figgy Fashion. Everything is great. I really love the steak. The steak was tender, juicy very flavorful. The plantains were crispy. Very sweet inside. The most delicious plantains I have. We went for an engagement. My brother is happily engaged now!!!! Server was Mirta. She was excellent. The restaurant was so beautiful. Great for taking pictures. Drinks I had: Bohemian Gold - Very light and refreshing felt like something you could drink with your meal and have a light taste figgy fashion - Very strong, you will taste the liquor in this drink citrusy Overall 10/10 restaurant. ”
“ I loved the decor! My waitress Ashley was very accommodating and offered alternatives. The Manager was very friendly and attentive. It was a little cold but I can respect the temperature with illness season we are in now! Valet was great too! They were apologetic for the long wait! ”
“ This place in itself is a vibe! The interior decorator nailed it!! The colors are vibrant and yet not over powering! We had the pleasure of being greeted by Horace for breakfast and he was great! Very attentive to not only us but others who were also dining at the restaurant. I even heard another patron say how excited she was to get him again so I knew we were in great hands! Horace recommended the egg frittata so I tried it. Now I absolutely love egg whites and the flavors came together very well but I will say if you are one who has a texture issue you might not like it that much. The consistency was much like egg custard if that makes sense. I also had a vanilla latte to accompany it along with some water. I really hope the next time we visit MICO we get Horace again! ”
“ 5 star review! Everything was impeccable...from the service to the food. We had a reservation for a party of 2 on a Sunday evening. When we arrived, we were promptly greeted and taken to our table. The restaurant was not very full but became a little busier as the evening went out. Our server, Kallie, offered flawless service the entire time we were there. The flow of the food between courses was just right. We opted to take advantage of the Queen's Feast Restaurant week deals and also ordered drinks. All of the food was delicious from appetizer to dessert. Mico is located in the Marriott Grand Bohemian Hotel. We opted for valet parking but were able to get a discount because we dined in the restaurant. After dining, we were able to view the rooftop bar. It was equally impressive. I definitely plan to return again soon and try some other menu items. ”
