Original!6/12/2013 12:00:00 AMCreative dishes, perfectly executedWe enjoyed the chefs tasting menu which included tuna tartar, fois Gras, smoked hangar steak and more. From rhubarb ribbons to compressed cucumber to beet reductions, the courses were visually appealing and creatively composed. Hats off to the whole staff.6/9/2013 12:00:00 AMNeighborhood GemThe food was delicious and beautifully presented, and I love the menu with the options of two light plates or three courses or more. The menu is simple yet complete. The wait staff knows their "stuff" and does a great job helping select if in doubt.6/9/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had the Crab Tasting andWe had the Crab Tasting and the wine pairing at Mica. The food was great. We thoroughly enjoyed everything on the tasting menu. On one dish the crab was paired with steak and it was delicious. The wines were German, which we haven't tried much and we loved them. They were different and something we wouldn't have tried otherwise. The restaurant is small. I found the service to be attentive but not too much. Everyone was helpful and informative. We would definitely go back.6/5/2013 12:00:00 AMEvery Bite MemorableFrom start to finish, our meal was surprising, delightful, perfectly prepared and artfully presented.6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMexcellent dinnereverything was delicious and the service was impeccable.5/29/2013 12:00:00 AMCan you take the noise levelMy first visit and the food is really special, well prepared and presented.

The whole Mica team did a fantastic job and delivered a fantastic meal. Thank you for hosting Chef Perrier. If you are a Philly area foodie and have not been to this restaurant, why not?5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMPerrier's menu was outstanding.Perrier's menu was outstanding. Small, unique, reasonably priced wine list. Terrific dry red sparkler. Great as an aperitif or with first or second course.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat FindWe went to Mica because of a special dinner that I read about. It is a small restaurant seatin about 40+ people. The food was top notch. The restaurant serves modern american food with a changing menu based on ingredients. I learned that from talking to our server, Will, who was fabulous. The service is classical french style. They also have a nice wine list with very reasonable prices. Although the restaurant is quite a ride from home we would venture out there again.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMOne word...WOW.Each and every single thing was phenomenal. The service was attentive without being intrusive, the wine suggestions were great and the food was simply amazing. We did the 5 course tasting menu and each course was wonderful and inventive, using many very fresh, seasonal items. The foie gras ravioli with chicken liver ragu may have been one of the best things I have ever eaten, literally. Because of the price of our meal, this isn't an every day kind of place (for us), but we will certainly be looking for ANY excuse in the very near future to return. Just wonderful.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMEverything was incredible.Everything was incredible. The food, the presentation, the service, the ambiance. Will come again many more times.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMFun time at Oyster Tasting night!We went for the oyster tasting. Really creative use of the oyster.

While every course was delicious, the outstanding dishes of the evening were the foi gras, the marrow ravioli, and the pork tenderloin. The amuse bouche and the complimentary chocolate truffles were a special treat. We would definitely go back again when the menu changes in the spring or summer but would request a table in the front room.3/8/2013 12:00:00 AM
