ok food, too expensive. mio vicino has pretty good italian, nothing fabulous, but it's one of the only italian places near santa clara university besides pasta pomodoro.
the prices at mio vicino are outrageous. you would think you are paying for a 5-star meal! in short, unless you are ordering one of the cheaper menu items like a pizza or plan pasta, skip mio vicino and head to pasta pomodoro, which has food just as good at a more reasonable price.
