Between the creative dishes and spectacular service I can't recommend mirra enough. The sopecito was definitely a highlight.
The flavors and structure of the dishes were so unique and delicious. Such a fun “special” date night spot. We probably over ordered so make sure to ask your server how much to get! We sat at the bar and watched the chef and cooks work - they are so talented. Music was loud but I liked it, made for a very fun and inviting atmosphere.
Frankly, we didn't like the food. It was very expensive for the portion size, and the servings were quite small.
Really friendly, knowledgeable, and professional service. Great food (and we had quite a few shareable dishes). The noise level was OK but we were sitting close to the open kitchen and did not have people sitting on either side of us. Would definitely go again.
My wife and I love both Indian and Mexican cuisine, so we were very excited to try this restaurant for the first time. The reviews (generally) were five star, and after having experienced it I'm adding one as well. The staff was quite engaging and friendly, specifically the hostess and our server. Although we showed up twenty minutes early, we didn't get the eye roll or exasperated response that you sometimes see in places. In fact, they sat us ten minutes early. Our server has very pleasant and knowledgeable. Now, I'd read maybe 50 reviews and a theme is that the servers in general really push the number of small plates so I was prepared lol. She did try to push us to 5+ but we held the line at four and it was more than enough food for us. YMMV. That said, I work in the industry and understand there are a number of reasons why they do it and am ok with them being aggressive. Just understand that each small plates gives you 4-5 bites in general. As far as the food, it was complete hit! My wife love beets and I do not, but I sure love theirs. Spicy sauces with definite hints of both cuisines, and the goat cheese was a nice way to cool down the heat. We also ordered the lamb tacos and they too were creative and tasty, albeit slightly oily, probably from the cheese on the shell. My wife hit the nail on the head by describing them as elevated “Indian Gyros”. Lots of great flavors that didn't trample on each other. The prawns were a beautiful presentation, again with assorted flavors combining for a delicious bite. I thought three large prawns for the price was very fair as well. Would order again for sure. We also had the squash dish. I'm not a huge squash fan normally, but this was quite good. Had some crunch to it with some Mexican toppings and a yogurt underneath that added another level of flavor and texture. While we liked everything, we decided if we had to let one go to try something else that it would be this one. Fun vibe too! 9/10!
A fantastic brunch! Our server, Eddie, made the experience even better with his explanations and suggestions.
The food was fairly average. The biryani, which seems to be their most popular dish, was good but not particularly memorable, very similar to what you'd find at most Indian restaurants. The service, however, really needs improvement. There was no hostess, or they may have been too busy, but no one greeted us or said goodbye. Since the food quality is fairly standard and expected, service is what could set this place apart, but unfortunately, that was lacking.
Wonder energetic staffs especially the hostess with tasty innovative dishes like the lamb roll and breakfast sandwich for brunches
Food, service, and esthetic is 10/10! The presentation of various dishes was beautiful as well. The shrimp tacos and guacamole were my faves! Nothing beats the myriad of flavors that Mirra offers. I will definitely be back!
This was a dinner to remember!! It was so good.. having just got back from Mexico City and being Indian, this was the perfect fusion. I would definitely do tasting menu again.. totally worth it! The seating at the Bar was such a great experience.. talking to the Chef and hearing about each dish.

The food was all fantastic. The ambiance was a beautiful combo of elevated, yet non-pretentious. And above all, the service was fantastic. Every single person who interacted with us was warm and would explain the ingredients in the dishes. Everything was phenomenal.
Despite having a reservation, our table was not ready and the host asked us to wait at a coffee shop “across the street” which ended up being a block down. I was there for my birthday brunch and not prepared to walk in heels in 8 inches of snow to another establishment. It left a poor taste in my mouth for the celebration. There was no complementary service for the hassle either. Despite the good food, I'd not recommend the place given poor service.
Great food and outstanding service. Vegetarian menu was extensive and I would go back again.
We thoroughly enjoyed the intersection and vibrancy of flavors. Our server was excellent as well, and courses were timed very well Space is EXTREMELY loud and the BTG pours were very expensive for the volume poured. Good selection but I would prefer to pay $3 less per glass or give me 1-2 oz more
We did arrive at the restaurant and had our dinner there, but noticed later that the restaurant had accidentally canceled our reservation on OpenTable. Please note that this is a mistake and it should be corrected through the restaurant and OpenTable.
