Matcha Mío Café — Restaurant in Mexico City

They opened yesterday 3.14 and it was literally packed. So I decided to come back today and finally could try this new place. The ambient is cool, typical minimal Asian furniture like I’ve seen a lot on my Asia trip which gives the place an clean environment. They use organic products for all their food and beverage. The prices are good for being a matcha place because usually it’s quite expensive here in Mexico City. You have both table and take away service, which is cool and also have a strong WiFi. I ordered a matcha latte and I was served a small paper cup of matcha latte, which made me ask to the worker why not in a normal cup as I was seeing the girls in front of me sipping their drinks from glass and porcelain cups. On my idea, if I have an organic place I would try to reduce the use of disposable products at the minimum level, but overall it’s good. I asked for a matcha croissant but at 12:20pm the offer of the panadería (croissants, donuts and so on) was reduced to the donuts and to the panques (a kind of bread cake), obviously matcha based, and some cookies. The guys who work here told me that it’s because yesterday with the opening, they finished all the products but at noontime of the day after you should be able to offer the full menu to your clients especially if you’re a coffee shop or matcha shop. The latte is really good and I wanna think that they need some time to settle the business to make it work at 100% and this little things can be easily fixed. I’ll come back for sure maybe for a lunch to see how things...

A super busy matcha café with average drinks and a chaotic atmosphere.

On a regular Thursday afternoon, the café was packed to the brim, and there wasn’t a clear queue to form. After eventually making it to the front of the line, I was informed of a 15-20 minute wait, which felt a bit much but decided to order a coco matcha anyway. They handed me a pager, and I waited outside since the interior was too hectic.

It took about 15 minutes for my drink to be ready. Unfortunately, the first couple of sips were underwhelming—it barely tasted like coconut, which was disappointing. The drink itself felt poorly prepared and was just average at best. For $75, the price was typical for the area, but the experience and quality didn’t justify it. Between the long wait and the disorganized chaos inside, it wasn’t...

This place had been calling me for some time. It is s0000 cute! Everything is this amazing shade of matcha, the tables, chairs, there are cute Japanese paintings inside and a selection of matcha items for purchase. They have matcha desserts, matcha drinks of all sorts. I got a matcha boba with coconut. Service was good however their knowledge of matcha and boba seems to be a bit iffy. They are selling organic matcha high quality but from South Korea not Japan. I also asked if their boba was house made and they said yes. It is from the factory made tapioca balls which contain micro plastics. Their logo is super cute as well. Overall great place and I would come again to try...
