La Mezzaluna is one of my go-to places to meet friends for lunch. The menu offers a nice variety of delicious dishes. My favorite is their Risotto. The wait staff is very friendly and you never feel rushed. If you plan to have wine or beer, the restaurant is BYOB, however, their is a good liquor store a next door or take a short walk to Hulfish St. to the Princeton Corkscrew for a great selection of wine.

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.
