The big day at is finally happening on Saturday- Mio’s is
holding their official opening on Saturday, March 17th, St.
Patrick’s Day, 12:00 noon, in their new location on 15 N. Fort Thomas. On this
opening day only Mio’s will offer a special pizza and pasta buffet menu. Mio’s
will begin serving from it’s regular menu on Sunday.
Many Fort Thomas
residents have been eagerly awaiting this opening. The former Warners/ Pergola
space has been vacant since October 2009, and that great outdoor patio in
front, once a favorite spot for the locals to see and be seen, has been sitting
empty and forlorn for a long time. Mio’s has arrived just in time for the
spring patio season.
Mio’s pizza has been in business since 1975 and they
currently have 8 area locations. Their menu includes classic and stuffed
pizzas, pasta dishes, salads, hoagies, calzones, and kids meals. Manager and
co-owner Mark Fowler says Mio’s strives to make people feel welcome by
providing a clean environment, great food, and the best service possible.
There will be some changes to the space. Mark, and partner
and co-owner Alan and their crew have been very busy these past few months
renovating, training new employees,(many of them Highlands
students), and increasing oven capacity.
The main level front door off the patio leads to a new bar
with café tables and a pizza pick- up area. Off the bar is a small dining room
containing a 72-inch flat screen television, which will be used for regular
seating and/or private parties.
The second floor front door at the top of the outdoor stone
stairway leads to the main dining rooms. There’s a cozy fireplace to the room
on the right, and a kid themed-room to the left, complete with a blackboard on
the wall for the small and antsy. All the tables are covered in butcher paper
and set with crayons in jars.
Parking is available in back of the restaurant, and may be
accessed through the driveway next to Candy Cottage.
