Il Mito Trattoria e Enoteca is a casual fine-dining restaurant known for its Italian and Mediterranean cuisine. It was founded in 2007 by Chef Michael Feker in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.
With a focus on quality ingredients, artistic presentation, and warm hospitality, Il Mito quickly earned a reputation as a go-to destination for flavorful, authentic meals.
In 2022, Il Mito began franchising to expand its reach beyond its original location.
Il Mito sets itself apart with a blend of rustic Italian tradition and modern Mediterranean flair. Its inviting atmosphere and chef-driven menu create a dining experience that is both refined and approachable.
Here's what you would need to invest if you were to start this franchise. These costs are provided by the franchisor in the Franchise Disclosure Document.
Il Mito provides a multi-tiered training program to equip franchisees and their team members with the skills and knowledge necessary to operate the franchised business successfully.
Il Mito offers its franchisees a clearly defined exclusive territory in which the franchisor agrees not to establish either company-owned or franchised outlets selling the same or similar goods or services under the same or similar trademarks.
This exclusivity is not contingent on achieving sales targets or other performance benchmarks, and the franchisor may not alter the territory even if population growth occurs within it. The territory typically consists of a geographic area like a 3-mile radius or specific zip codes.
Despite this protection, Il Mito reserves the right to use alternative distribution channels—such as the Internet, catalog sales, or telemarketing—to solicit or accept orders within the franchisee’s territory.
