What People Say

Diners rave about the creative cocktails, shareable small plates, and standout dishes like the Argentinian-style steaks and empanadas. The restaurant’s artful design and elegant vibe consistently earn praise, as does the exceptional service—servers are knowledgeable, personable, and attentive without being overbearing. Guests also love the intimate bar area for a quick drink before the show.

Areas for Improvement

While most guests leave impressed, some note that the menu can be on the pricier side—especially for larger groups. A few diners mention occasional delays during peak dinner hours, so it’s smart to make a reservation and allow a bit of extra time if you’re heading to a show. The upscale vibe also means it’s not the place for a super casual bite.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a stylish, flavorful, and convenient spot to dine before a concert in Uptown Charlotte, MICO hits all the right notes.
