I had bought a bunch of Parasole gift cards around the holidays, so visiting Mozza Mia was encouraged by that purchase. We arrived after 5pm on a Sunday and were surprised to see a lineup of people waiting to be seated. We were seated very quickly and sat at the bar facing the kitchen.
We started with tomato caprese bruschetta topped with freshly made mozzarella, tomato and basil on grilled sourdough bread. The fresh mozzarella really made this dish excellent. The tomatoes had nice flavor as well, especially considering it is the middle of winter in Minnesota.
John had the supremo pizza topped with bolognese, pepperoni, onion, peppers, mozzarella, provolone and gorgonzola. We felt the crust was a bit on the bland side. I did not get much flavor from the wood fired pizza oven at all.
I had the fig and prosciutto pizza topped with La Quercia prosciutto, gorgonzola and caramelized onion. This was a sweeter pizza and I removed a few figs and enjoyed it a lot.
The service was fine, a bit odd since the server had to wait on us from behind since the kitchen was in front of us, but we had everything we needed when we needed it. We thought the prices seemed a bit high for the quality of the food, so I am not sure we will be rushing back anytime soon.
