This was an amazing experience I really enjoyed the fact that from the moment you arrive they make it feel personal as if you and your guest as if you rented out the place.. every dish was explained in great culinary fashion and I love the way each server and host incorporated their knowledge of the dish being served. Hands down one of the premier experiences in the D.C area and a must for impressing any level of company you have. The value is very worth it but the experience is priceless..

My wife and I had an amazing experience at Mita for Valentine's Day! If you're looking for creative plant-based Latin American dishes, then this is the place for you. A bit pricey, but it's worth it.

We loved Nestor, Is(rael), Kristen, and Andy. I feel bad that I don't think we learned the lovely man in the suit's name, but he was also great. We both said this is probably the best service meal we've had in DC. A+!
