Finally tried out Mioposto a few weeks ago for our anniversary, and it was a good spot for a casual but romantic weeknight dinner. Small and bustling, we arrived at just the right time (roughly 7:30pm on a Tuesday). They don't take reservations and there's really no room inside the restaurant to mill about, so we were happy to have a table right away. (Sorry to the party behind us who had to wait out in the cold!) Dimly lit and cozy, we dug the vibe. There's a small bar that's open to the restaurant, and they had a sports game on (probably football? I don't pay attention to these things), but it wasn't distracting where we were seated in the restaurant. Or maybe that's because I strategically positioned my back to the TV's. Anyway, I wasn't bothered by it. Our server was friendly and recommended some good vegetarian options. We shared the mushroom hunter pizza (Garlic roasted portobello, cremini, and oyster mushrooms, caramelized onions, mozzarella, fontina, thyme) and the eggplant parmesan with a side roasted beet salad (Greens, goat cheese, cracked Marcona almonds). The beet salad was spectacular. I don't usually say that about salad, but this was so fresh and flavorful. The pizza was also really good. Thin crust, wood-fired, and the tastes and textures were all working. We both agreed that we wouldn't order the eggplant parm again. Too thick cut and saucy for our liking. Their cocktail menu looked good, and I enjoyed my glass of wine. We'd happily find our way back here again to this happening neighborhood spot!
