- Price range: $$ ($9-$15)
Mista features stone-oven prepped thin-crust pizzas, plus salads and wraps made with organic and natural ingredients. Look for choices such as a sweet fennel sausage with herbs, an Italian cheese blend and tomato sauce; and the Florentine, made with baby spinach, seasoned ricotta cheese, mushrooms, roasted garlic and fresh mozzarella cheese. In addition to a handful of salads, there are a few other heathful choices, including a Heart Smart pizza with roasted veggies and low-fat mozzarella, and a low-carb (pasta-free) roasted veggie lasagna. The folks behind Mista have decades of restaurant cred--the place is operated by descendents of Luigi Davino, who founded Little Italy's Pompei Bakery back in 1909. (The Davino family sold Pompei a few years back; partners there now include David Morton, the son of steakhouse magnate Artie Morton.)
