Mio Bistro - Dorset

Eight of us had different first, second, third courses and drinks. The food was as fine as any of us had eaten crab soup, pork cop crepes with chicken, salads, salmon, cod gelato chocolate cake. Martina's etc all excellent in as nice atmosphere. Ended up $50/ person. Waitstaff not perfect but this is an elegant place for dinner in Vt

Food was delicious! Portions were generous. Cute, intimate atmosphere. Food came out super fast too. The FOH was a little slow and you could tell things weren't flowing. They might be new and it will probably come in time. The hostess worked hard to fill in the gaps.

Mio Bistro is an excellent restaurant. We ate outside and it was lovely. The service was friendly and attentive. We started with the mussels and shrimp appetizers I had a lovely chicken entree. The owners are so very attentive to the details of each item on their menu. Mio is one of a few restaurants that delivers on the menu descriptions. The team at Mio is far more interested in providing their guests with super culinary experience rather than trying to run a 40 table restaurant. This is how dining was meant to be. Do not miss eating at this very fine place.

Great food and service. The sesame scallops were amazing. Thanks Beverley and Leo.

This town of Dorset is absolutely a picture postcard and the fact that there is such substance behind it makes it such a home run. MIO Bistro was a great experience in every way service, ambiance and food quality were all excellent. Appears to be a husband and wife couple running the very small visible kitchen and cooking each plate by table to order. Between the patio and inside they were only half full but they were turning people away because the kitchen can only properly satisfy a certain number of customers adequately, of should I say, to perfection. So, the take away on that is that reservations are highly suggested from my perspective and I applaud the owners for not overdoing it. The food was really great a combination of gourmet with a real touch of home cooking, in a good way. I had the salad with the shrimp and avocado and the special fish with an amazing lobster/corn/chanterelle mushroom risotto that could have been an entree by itself. Great wine selection. Desserts looked great next time! Bravo!
