Ready for a Hand-Crafted Cocktail?

We prefer to make our cocktails with the best ingredients possible, alcohol included!

All cocktails are “Hand-Crafted using only Premium liquors with Real Fruit juices (No Pre-mixes).  Whether it be blackberry simple syrup we make from scratch, aromatic infusions, or fresh fruit juices, we strive to provide the best possible cocktail without every opening a bottle of mix or concentrate. We’re currently working on some house-made liquor infusions that will be hitting our menus in January or February.

You won’t find a “well” liquor brand in our bar, we feel that a good cocktail whether it be one of our specialties or an Espresso Martini, should never be made with low end liquor just to save a dime, we’d much prefer to make it with the best possible ingredients possible, alcohol included!

Our ethos, whether it be food or drink, is to provide our guests with the best possible ingredients, made in house, and always fresh over frozen. Our concept has been called fast and fun, which is a great way to describe us. From time to time, you’ll see our kitchen team tossing pies to each other from across the kitchen, some can toss dough up to twenty feet in the air. While we don’t consider ourselves a “dinner and a show” concept, we do find many guests absorbed as they watch the kitchen work. It truly is a unique experience and a glimpse into a commercial kitchen that most never get to witness. Next time you stop in, feel free to bring your children and walk up to the kitchen and talk to our team. Most of them have been with us for three to four years and live and breathe pizza, and always enjoy sparking some joy with our younger guests.

Craft Beers & Draft Beer:  MidiCi has always supported Florida breweries, and especially our Gainesville local breweries.  First Magnitude, Cypress & Grove, and Swamp Head Brewery always have a place in our cooler. We have 9 draft taps, which we rotate between many Florida breweries. Don’t see that new First Magnitude seasonal on draft? Rest assured; we have it waiting for you in our cooler.

Wines:  Our selections support smaller local wine distributors based in Orlando.  We focus on quality, affordability, and uniqueness. Our goal is to provide you an excellent wine at an excellent price and one you won’t see on your grocery store shelves

Specialty Cocktails:  Named after local Springs / Rivers / Waterways.  The Ginnie (Ginnie Springs), Blackwater Sour (Blackwater River), Rum Island (Rum Island), Emerald Cut (King’s Landing/ Rock Springs), are all named for the natural beauty in and around N. Central Florida.

While we know this is a deviation from our typical branding, we felt obligated to pay tribute to some of the best river and spring systems in the world located in our backyard.
