While each fine dining restaurant is unique, they all share a few common goals — to provide exceptional service, craft the most exquisite menu, and deliver a high-end experience. If you are looking to splurge on good food and good views, Mireio (pronounced as mee-reyo) is one of the many fine dining restaurants in Makati that will not disappoint you.
Situated in the central business district, Mireio is a brasserie-style restaurant offering Provencal-inspired cuisine. If you are well-versed in poetry, the fine dining restaurant's name will ring a bell. Mireio is named after Nobel Prize winning poet Federic Mistral's poem about a forbidden love between two young Provencal people of different social backgrounds.
As you set your foot on Mireio's entrance, you will be welcomed by chic decor and a breathtaking cityscape view. The interior is simple but very elegant. The best tables are those in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows giving you an impeccable and unobstructed view of the Makati cityscape. If you love sunsets, I suggest you book for 5pm to see the whole dining area turn pinkish orange as the sun goes down.
Just like the poem, this fine dining restaurant in Makati exudes romance and sophistication. You will not only see that from its interiors but also from the menu as they offer dishes crafted from the heart. The menu highlights the flavors of provinces in south of France. For starters, I ordered the roquefort cromesqui with iberico ham, tomato concasse arugula (PHP 640). Of all the dishes I tried at Mireio, this is my favorite. It is oozing with a savory flavor that bursts as you bite it.

For the main course, I got their grilled free range duck breast, celeriac puree, green apple and duck juice. I’m a fan of duck but not the ones cooked in medium-rare. So I had to ask my boyfriend to switch meals. His was french free range bresse chicken supreme, creamy shallot puree porcini mushroom and baby spinach. It was delicious. I loved everything about it from the meat to its sauce. Then I paired it with Mireio’s cosmopolitan that’s just right for someone who doesn’t fancy alcoholic drinks too much. It is sweet and has a slight punch of alcohol. I liked it, too.
Main course | Grilled free range duck breast, celeriac puree, green apple and duck juice (PHP 1,950)
Drink | Cosmopolitan (PHP 450)
Main course | French free range Bresse chicken supreme, creamy shallot puree porcini mushroom and baby spinach (PHP 1,500)
Then for dessert, I ordered the 65% maracaibo mousse with chocolate ice cream, truffle cake, and hazelnut crunch. I also tried Mireio’s coconut curd, fresh mango, and pineapple soup. Both desserts are heavenly!
Dessert | Chocolate mousse (PHP 750)
Dessert | Coconut curd, fresh mango, and pineapple soup (PHP) 465
