        Glorified pizzeria that REALLY needs to get its act together if they want to stay in business. Spotty service, cold food, sloppy entrees. For instance, the fried calamari came out cold and tough. I never send food back. But for $15 I had to. Came back (SAME CALAMARI) it was hot. But it was just thrown in the deep fryer and re-served to us. It was as crispy and dry as pork rinds! We just left it at that point and hoped the entrees would be better. I’m going to leave a Google review. You can check about the disgusting entrees there. Don’t bother going there.

        Great atmosphere. Great Food. Alittle dark - I had to bring light over my menu. Not a deal breaker. Enjoyed ourselves - repeat customers.

      FAQs

      Yes, reviewers call Mezza Luna romantic, noting dimmed lighting, music, and the renovated dining room that together make it well suited for a special evening.

      Yes, Mezza Luna is family-friendly: reviewers note children enjoying pasta and pizza, and multiple guests call it a great spot to bring the whole family.

      Smart casual is the guide, polished but relaxed, so aim for neat, put-together attire rather than formal wear.

      For great value and a calmer meal, visit Mezza Luna during the early-bird window (before about 5:30), guests praise the early-bird specials; Friday and Saturday evenings are notably busier.

      Mezza Luna's newly renovated dining room feels warm and intimate, pendant lights and small table lamps, with dimmed lights and music later creating a romantic mood; busy weekend nights can feel louder when the room fills.
