    Really good Chicken Parmesan with vodka sauce, and enough for leftovers the next day, which is always a good thing! Love that it’s a BYOB too.

    Our group of eight had very different diets, and William at Mezzaluna accommodated everyone! We were welcomed when we arrived, and we were graciously served. The food was outstanding. Everything was freshly prepared, even items ordered from the regular menu. The special menu this night was innovative. Every one was pleased.
