Mitto was an absolute discovery. Everything felt carefully curated and intentionally designed. The ambience is amazing, being nestled in a former police station makes it truly unique. The food was 10/10. The plates they used were beautiful, handcrafted pieces. What I loved most were the pork dumplings, the assortment of nigiri, and the Wagyu steak. The Wagyu, in particular, was to die for.
