Most Disliked
While Mikos has many fans, some diners express disappointment regarding the occasional unavailability of popular dishes during peak hours. These moments can lead to frustration, particularly if a specific craving drives a visit. Some patrons note that prices can be a touch high for certain items, which may discourage budget-conscious diners. Lastly, the hidden location within Sharma Square can make it a challenge to find initially, but once discovered, it rewards culinary exploration.

My first 2 experiences weren't as great on a count of what I wanted wasn't available and I left but boy oh boy was I truly impressed when I finally stayed. Rib eye was great and second time I ordered the prawns, hands down the best well seasoned prawns I have ever had. The service was great, didn't wait long for the food to come either.

I always look forward to mikos prawns. Of course I would love shelled ones but I don't complain cz they are amazing. Also the smoothie is to die for. Was just disappointed that the guy who is always nice had left early before we could tip. He is always polite and makes sure we are served well

Excellent desert parlor and cake shop. They have some of the best cakes in town not to mention there unique bubble waffle which is just phenomenal everyone has to try it. It's a bit hidden in terms of location but can easily be found when entering the compound. It's a must go if you are in blantyre

I have really tried to find one 'not-so-good' review to write about but honestly speaking, this place has the best meals i have ever had. i've tried half their menu and i have not had one bad meal. Everything has great taste. The mocktails, prawns. steak, chicken, burgers, salads....everything. I don't have a sweet tooth so i don't have much to say about their sweet section, but judging from what i have had so far, it's safe to say that section won't disappoint. ALL IN ALL Miko's is worth every visit Cheers to your kitchen!!!!!!
