Mio Oh Mio is the kind of restaurant that makes you want to build an entire evening around a match rather than squeeze a meal in beforehand. The room seats just 32, filled with art and warm lighting, and the menu from James Beard Award-winning chef Renee Erickson leans into Pacific Northwest ingredients filtered through Italian and British technique. Expect steaks cooked properly, shellfish that tastes like it came off a boat that morning, and pasta made in-house that holds its own against restaurants twice the price. For an evening kickoff, sitting down at Mio Oh Mio first turns the night into an occasion rather than just a stop on the way to the stadium. Open Wednesday through Sunday, 5pm to 9pm, so plan accordingly around match times.
