Excellent 'value' priced pizza!
Lets get out of the way what Mio isn't. They're not upscale artisan pizzas like Una and they're not Greek styled pizza like Nick's (two of my favorites) but Mio is still very very good, particularly for the price.

I love this place, we have ordered with them for at least 30 years.. they have excellent customer service and satisfaction. For example! Tonight, we ordered our usual.. except this time we forgot an item, They promptly called US back!.. and reminded us about that item.. who does that?! They do! They are just the most kind hearted, personable people.. and genuinely want to make sure you have the best experience.
FOOD- what can I say?! ABSOLUTEY AMAZING. You'll never taste a pizza sauce, or lasagna like this.. but truly, all the food is wonderful. FRESH toppings, nothing sits around, and it's just incredible.. we absolutely adore it, and everyone we've gotten to try it, never looks back! it's worth every single penny. And that's the best part.. it's so well priced!
If you haven't tried it yet, please try it! I'm telling ya.. it's worth it. Our family has honestly never been disappointed.. in 30 years.. we ordered from MIO as kids.. and it's never skipped a beat, never disappointed,...
