Mizza

We were walking down the street when we passed a place called Mizza, and we just couldn’t stay indifferent. And as you already know me… spontaneity and intuition are always the name of the game - and this time, it worked perfectly. Our server, Raphaela, was incredibly sweet. Service was a solid 10/10 - warm, attentive, effortless. The atmosphere was lovely, with soft classical music in the background and warm, elegant wooden decor. And then the food arrived… wow. Wow. Wow. We ordered the Butternut Squash Pasta and the Wild Mushrooms Pizza. What can I say other than that it was amazing? Every bite was a delight - high-quality ingredients, perfectly cooked al dente pasta, and beautifully balanced flavors. The ravioli needed just a touch of Parmesan for a bit more saltiness, and that made it absolutely perfect. At the end, we ordered the tiramisu. It wasn’t a wow moment, just cute (I would recommend trying something else), but it definitely didn’t take away from the rest of the wonderful experience. Thank you so much for the lovely hospitality. More impressions from this visit - and others - can be found on my social: @kimnave

Food was great, lobster risotto and short ribs were amazing. One star off is bc when we paid we found out that credit card surcharge — we didn’t see that on the menu nor did we get notified about it. it’s pretty sad that this is clearly a management failure. I’m sure a lot of customers felt kick into the gut when they were paying after a lovely experience. I would happily tip 20% but not with this. PS I didn’t even use credit card to pay and this is NOT a standard feature for restaurants in California.

Stopped in wanting some good California artisan pizza and found it here. We started with an appetizer of shrimp in a garlic and hot chile sauce that was spicy and tasty, accompanied by delicious ciabatta toast. We ordered two pizzas as main courses, one a pepperoni the other a ham, artichoke and black olive, both came out bubbling hot from their oven with tasty fresh ingredients and a crispy, not too thin crust that could hold the toppings and sauce well and a nice flavor to it. The service here was friendly, professional and efficient.
