First, the handicap parking is convenient. We were able to park right next to the handicap ramp for the restaurant--see pictures. Second,we had one of our best meals here, which included a wonderful presentation and execution of seared ahi tuna, and a toasted,crunchy baguette with fabulous steak tips, cheese, and sauteed onions. The cocktails were excellent. We were so impressed withthe lunch we immediately made a reservation for dinner when we noticed Cioppino on the menu. Third, the monumental mood swing.The night of our reservation there were at least three dinner groups that never got their meals including us. It appears therewas some fracas between a waitress and the kitchen staff with everything coming to a complete stop. Conclusion, you'll noticethis schizoaffective swing from diners who have rated Misto a one star restaurant, and those who have rated it five stars. We'veexperienced both extremes in the mood swing, and so we felt it proper to rate it three stars. There is no doubt that Mistocould be a truly great restaurant. It must come to grips with its duality. Will we go there again? Yes; since this is the foodof our childhood, and it can be exquisite at Misto! we are drawn to it. We hope to find the best of restaurants when we goagain.

I went to this restaurant for a bridal event two years ago and LOVED this place. The food and drinks were fantastic and the atmosphere was classy but relaxed. I decided to book this venue for a bridal party I am in for this pastJune. I spoke to the owner and he was so pleasant and friendly. He took down all the details of everything needed and told me hewould contact me in a few weeks as it got closer. I didn?t receive a call from him, so I tried to call back and left three moremessages with no return call. I looked on the google for the umpteenth time and it said ?temporarily closed? but nothing is ontheir actual website as such. I feel terrible writing a bad review, because obviously this was a sudden closing with somethingunforeseen having happened. I just wish SOMEONE could have called patrons to let us know. Thankfully we were able to bookanother venue with such short notice (3 days prior), but I was looking forward to experiencing Misto again! I hope everyone isok?!
