    Tenderloin Mudega

    Great new addition to the Edwardsville food scene. Kind of an old school Italian restaurant vibe. Located in a neighborhood close to business area of downtown. Some street parking and small lot at the business. Salads and pasta were all delicious. Staff were prompt and knowledgeable of the menu. Cool place to hangout for a drink .

    Wine Menu

    One of my cousins raved about the lunches at Mio, so I came to give it a try. The menu was a little different than the dinner menu and I expected that. I liked how they offered a Half & Half. You can create your own combo with; sandwiches, salads, pastas and soups. My combo included, Caesar Salad and Salsiccia Bernardi. Bernardi is a sandwich with, Italian sausage and Italian Beef with pepperoncini and pepper jack cheese. It was a lot of food, I ended up taking half of a half sandwich home. It was just as delicious as a snack, while watching Jeopardy that afternoon. I'll definitely be back for another lunch. A couple days later after my lunch, I brought friends visiting from Connecticut for dinner. They were blown away and have already told other local friends how much they enjoyed their experience. There were five of us dining and our entrees had a seafood theme. The two ladies enjoyed the salmon which was a night special and I enjoyed the shrimp special of the night. The other two gentleman had Tutto Mare and another shrimp pasta. In addition to our entrees, we killed three bottles of wine. Our service was outstanding, our server told us it was relatively new to Mio Osteria and she was nailing it. The hostess was professional and friendly and the bartender when I enjoyed an early arrival cocktail was masterful in his skills. If you want Italian in Edwardsville, I highly recommend Mio Osteria.

    Such a cozy little spot in the neighborhood Absolutely love the vibe here! We called ahead (highly recommend doing this) and they told us it'd be about an hour wait, but offered to put us on a waitlist and call when a table opened up. Perfect -- signed us right up! They called back in under 20 minutes. We ordered a drink, calamari, the Tutto Mare, and the daily special: Cajun Chicken Pasta. Everything was so good -- but OMG, the Tutto Mare stole the show. Since they were out of clams, they gave us extra shrimp and crab chunks -- so flavorful and perfectly ocean-y. Our waitress was A-mazing -- super welcoming and helpful. 100% my new favorite place in Edwardsville!

    A hidden Edwardsville gem, just like they advertise; a little STL on the Hill, in Edwardsville. I will certainly be back. Good Service & great food! Kitchen is on point.

    If you have an opportunity to dine at Mio Osteria, run to do so...do not walk. Reservation is highly recommended, though the 10 or so bar seats and 15 or so patio tables are first come first served. We arrived on a Saturday night without a reservation and it was packed. We enjoyed a glass of wine while waiting the 30-40 min for a patio table. The restaurant is pretty small, but has an inviting and intimate vibe, not cramped. Menu has a nice variety of unique Italian dishes for fun exploring, though you can find more recognizable choices too. When seated we shared a house salad that had a delicious, understated vinaigrette dressing. My wife had the ravioli, and I had the filet with Marsala sauce. We tried one of their cheesecakes and a blueberry lemon cake for dessert. All so flavorful and fresh from the kitchen. McKenna provided truly excellent service, and her sincere enjoyment in making our dinner special was infectious. Erica, the owner stopped by and sat down with us for a very brief conversation to make sure all went well. We left feeling like we'd just enjoyed a meal with family (that is, the side of the family you like haha). This is a very special restaurant, our new, very most favorite place in the area, and not to be missed Highest recommendation and we will return soon!

    The best crackers EVER!! I'd come here just for them.
    Kerry T.

    Mio is such an awesome addition to Edwardsville. The interior is warm, inviting, and lively. Service is always great and the food is exceptional! I am so obsessed with the homemade crackers they bring you at the beginning of your meal. I ask for some to go and they always oblige. The lunch specials are great and their salads, sandwiches, and soups are amazing! The crab bisque was phenomenal. My favorite salad is the Della Casa and favorite sandwich is the Bistecca. It's delicious and portions are large. Their pasta is also great and last time we were there, I ordered spumoni ice cream and it was unreal. Mio will continue to be one of our favorite restaurants!

    We decided to try Mia Osteria on short notice on a Monday. We had no idea what a treat we were in for. We started with the Carciofi Fritti and the Calamari. Both were exceptional. The artichokes were nice and crispy served with a really good aioli. The marinara with the calamari was also wonderful. We shared a Caesar Salad which was one of the best I've ever tasted. Next we shared a pasta course of Cacio e Pepe. It was fabulous. For an entree we shared a veal dish that was amazing. It was a special item, not on the menu. I don't know what it was called but it was one of the best veal dishes I've had. The veal was perfectly tender in a sauce that was very different and delicious. It was a mix of marinara and cheese and again, was truly delicious. The service was impeccable. Just the right level of attention. The portions were more than generous. The ambiance was perfect. It was warm and cozy. Bravo Mia Osteria.

    We've eaten here several times now and the food is consistent and delicious. Their salads are excellent, good cocktails, and we've enjoyed every entree. Good service, always busy, with a friendly staff. This is a great addition for Edwardsville and worth your time the next you're looking for a great meal.

    Packed house on this Wednesday night.

    We arrived in Edwardsville and walked over for dinner. The place was packed but there was a table in the corner. Our server was being trained and did a great job for us. The dining room was very lively with all ages represented. It had a very comfortable feeling. The food was excellent. My pasta was perfectly cooked and the sauce and seafood were perfectly matched. The Caesar salad had a very appealing dressing with perfectly chilled romain with perfect shrimp. Portion size was very generous.

    Chicken piccata
    Angelina L.

    So Good!! I had such a good experience at mio osteria! The service was beyond helpful and kind. The menu has a lot of different items for everyone which is great. I got the chicken piccata which was very tender and flavorful. I got it with the garlic noodles on the side which were so good. We had a few apps at the table like the cauliflower and bruschetta and they were large portions. The drink menu was awesome. I got to try a few different things and loved them all. The ambiance is my favorite part. It's a cozy smaller spot with great lighting. You feel right at home. I can't wait to come back.

They have a delicious looking menu with lots of good looking sandwiches and some yummy desserts. I opted for a winter special of the granny grilled cheese and it comes to the side of soup and I got a mini cheesecake on the side. The girls working upfront are so sweet and took my order quickly and answered all of my questions. They also did a great job of bagging up my order to go with utensils and napkins in the bag which I really appreciate. They also even tape closed the box so nothing spills. When I got home and sat down to eat, the food all looked delicious and made it home safe because of the careful packaging. The granny grilled cheese was the perfect mix of sweet and savory that I adore. It was a little messy to eat, but I was eating by myself at home so I didn't care. The tomato soup was the perfect addition to a snowy day. it was warm and flavorful. The cheesecake was also delicious. I got the mini one so I could convince myself I was being healthy but wish I would have gotten a full sized slice because of how delicious it was. I got my order to go for a couple different reasons but one is that they don't have the largest inside seating area and it tends to get pretty full. It's nice to come on a summer day because they have a pretty large outdoor seating area that you wouldn't be able to use in the winter is parking but there's a lot of spaces in the area.

They have a wonderful patio, indoor seating and seating above their store next door. Our service was great and we got a lot of food and it didn't take long on a busier Saturday.

Was pleasantly surprised by the amount of fresh offerings! I got the 6" BLTA and it was more than enough food and was so good.

The young girl who rang us up was absolutely amazing and wonderful and the lady who made our sandwiches was a pleasure! My ONLY suggestion is maybe offer to toast subs? My daughter's meatball sub was definitely good, but maybe would have been even better with the bread toasted! Otherwise, can't wait to go back next time I visit my sister!

All 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our subs that had plenty of meat and fresh toppings. I haven't had a sub this good in a very long time, and in Orlando we have the best of the best (or so I thought.) They apologized that they were out of pasta salad that day, so we each had chips with our sandwiches/wraps. The chips were a brand with which I am unfamiliar and was pleasantly surprised at the jalapeño cheddar flavor. Delicious. We all ate so fast no one got a pic!! I highly recommend this spot for quality food and a much needed break from the typical fast food joints.
