Mingo:Simple Italian at its Best – Mingo is a great restaurant that I have been going to for years. It has the best pizza. In fact, I won't get pizza anywhere else. Their dishes are fresh, simple, local and organic whenever possible. The atmoshere is hip, fun, yet unpretentious. You can tell the staff and owner really care about what they do and take pride in making Mingo what it is: a place for people who really want to partake in the joy of food, wine and friends. The place has soul and integrity - you can't find that too ... read more

Mingo has been my family and business spot for year. BUT as of late, closing for lunch, letting go of the pastry chef, letting go of long time chef for a family member who doesnt even come close to the previous chef. The food is so inconsistant my wallet can't take the gamble anymore. Its embarassing to take clients in. Mingo is on a fast downward spiral. What is going on? Looks like someone is shooting for a permanent vacatioin. We'll miss you mingo and all the staff who have been like family.

Getting a little full of themselves,and careless in process – Wants to appear Neighborhood chef-run restaurant, aspires to be priced and delivered like a first class dinner house. Failed at both. Started with a Mingo Salad. Asked for the Romaine to be chopped. "They won't do that". Have you ever been told that ? Even in Manhattan they will acommodate that request. C'mon folks. And for $9.00. That's not on the neighborhood price scale. Entre'- a simple pasta which was the first dish I have asked for a do-over on in thirty yea... read more

We Think It's the Best Italian Food in Beaverton – We love Mingo in Beaverton for lots of reasons (comfortable, warm space ... great patio in the summer ... really nice staff ... always good food). In my opinion, they make the best pizza in town. My favorite Mingo pizza is made with heirloom tomatoes, a small amount of cheese and crispy prosciutto. The crust is thin and crisp ... always cooked to perfection. They only make this pizza when heirloom tomatoes are in season so we go to Mingo as often as possible during that time... read more

The Best Train Stop in Oregon – Mingo is at it's best when it keeps true to it vision of simple Italian food -- house infused olive oil with a perfect chunk of bread, a trio of rice croquettes with just a touch of red sauce and a sprig of Italian parsley, a glass of wine and a little plate with 2 slices of perfect cheese and a sliced apple, tomato soup, a sublime cream of garlic soup, a perfect burger with a cold Italian lager, grilled polenta drizzled with olive oil, and on and on with any number of plated marvels. The love... read more

Love the happy hour – This is one of the best happy hours in the area. Monica is the bartender and always suggests the best wines to sample. She's attentive, without being intrusive. In fact, all of the wait staff is exceptional. The food is delicious and always fresh. The dishes are very creative and they use local ingredients whenever possible. This is one of my favorite places to meet friends after work or impress a first date.

Yummy Italian Food, Accommodating Staff – This is a gem of a spot...small, stylish interior, looking out onto the fountain area at the Round in Beaverton. It's right on the Max line with a parking garage just across the way for nights there's overflow in the parking lot. In summer, they open the "garage" style doors onto the plaza, adding to the ambiance. We've eaten lunch and dinner several times here over the last five years (although I believe lunch has been deleted recently due to everyone's belt tightening). Food should... read more

okay italian This is okay Italian. I haven't had anything on the menu yet that wowed me. The prices seem a little bit high. This restaurant only has evening hours. The place is clean and service is very good.
