Had a great dinner at Mida for my son’s birthday. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The cocktails were perfect, the food was delicious and the entree portions were bigger than most restaurants these days. All the ingredients were fresh and every dish had a depth of flavor and texture. We ordered the mussels (delicious!!) burrata, focaccia, eggplant parm, bolognese, swordfish piccata, the salmon and the chicken. Loved the vibe of the place and the music too. They brought out a special tiramisu with a candle for my son at the end of the meal. Would definitely go back!
