We sat in the bar area, so it was quite loud, but to be expected in a bustling bar. The service was great. Bread - so good. We had the meatball appetizer, pappardelle, and scallops. Everything was really good, but my scallops had a perfect sear on them that delivered a crunch I crave when eating seared scallops. The risotto was a perfect texture and the corn in the dish added the perfect amount of sweetness! www.serenitynowtravel.info read more

I really wanted to try a couple of the pasta dishes but at the recommendation of others I had the Tre Carne pizza and I am so glad I did. I believe that is the best pizza I've ever had, and as my family comes from Jersey I can say I've had some great pizza! read more

We have always loved Mezza. Its a nice ambiance for an upscale dining experience at beaches. We had the best server, Georgia, who took such good care of our group of 6 friends. The food is consistently good, with hot food served hot and cold food cold. Parking is limited so just use the friendly valet folks! read more

I have been coming to this restaurant for maybe 20 years to celebrate special occasions, and just to bring friends, but I have not been in the last year. For me their best thing on the menu is the Lasagna It seems to have a marinara sauce spread over the top it finish it has been marinating all day.It is filled with a few types of cheeses and you cannot stop eating it until it's all gone. Their wood-fired pizzas are also a favorite of mine. Our waiter Noah was friendly and attentive.The ambience is warm with light music playing in the background. They do have live music in the lounge Monday through Thursday.A most for those looking for an extensive Italian menu to pick from. read more

We had a wonderful dinner at Mezza Luna! The food was absolutely delicious -- I ordered the steak, which was slightly overcooked, but I didn't send it back because it was still full of flavor and paired beautifully with the sides. My husband had the duck and really enjoyed it; cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. We started with the burrata appetizer, and it was so good we completely forgot to take pictures -- we devoured every bite! We also shared a bottle of wine and ended the night with the cheesecake crème brûlée, which was the perfect sweet finish. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We were seated within 5 minutes even without a reservation, and chose to sit outside. The breeze kept us cool, and the music from inside added a nice ambiance to the whole evening. Highly recommend for a relaxed and flavorful night out! read more

Rude service. Liked this spot initially, it's pretty and the food is okay. Had a nice dinner with my family but as we were paying the bill the waitress told us that there was another reservation for our table in 15 minutes. It was so weird and off putting. We're waiting for the waitress to run our card so we can leave and she's telling us that we need to leave so she can prep for her next guest?! We dined a normal amount of time and the kitchen took forever, so off putting. read more

I have been to this restaurant twice and both times have been a great experience. Their short rib pappardelle was incredible as is their pizza. Service was great on both occasions. They have both an intimate dining area and a more relaxed bar depending on the experience you are looking for. Highly recommended. read more

What an awesome place! Free valet once you get your ticket validated, which was rather convenient for this AB location. The vibe was great, with live music. We sat in the back of the restaurant and tried the burrata, and then I had the swordfish special which was delicious. Looking forward to coming back and trying out some of the more Italian inspired dishes. Service was reasonable although our waitress seemed a bit overwhelmed. She was very friendly at least! read more

Extremely disappointed! If you're in a wheelchair in a it's difficult to navigate the bar Area. The wooden floor present another challenge. The service was lacking Leaving empty cocktail glasses on the table is not . Great service. My dinner was lasagna it was disappointing salty , watery and two different types of tomato sauce on the plate. read more

Mezza Luna was one of the highlights of our recent visit to the Georgia and Florida coast. The service was polished and efficient and very professional yet relaxed. We had a steak and duck confit, both of which were delicious. The sides were very complementary to the express, and everything well seasoned and tasty. Highly recommend. read more

What a beautiful restaurant! The ambience really makes this place. The live music was really great and not so loud that you couldn't talk. Our food was exceptional and the portions were fair for the price. The short rib pasta dish (Fresh Pappardelle) was outstanding. The lasagna was a big hit too, and we loved the risotto that was served with the scallops. Definitely recommend the Brussels sprout appetizer. The server we had in the bar for our after dinner drinks was excellent. Our dinner server was efficient and everything was accurate but after learning the pasta special was out when we were ordering, I had asked if another entree could be made without spinach. She said she didn't think so but didn't offer up other suggestions. So I ended up quickly going with my third choice meal so everyone else didn't have to wait. It ended up being delicious so I wasn't disappointed. It would have been helpful to know what they were out of sooner or what could be modified for allergies. We did appreciate her ability to split up our checks. read more

I was never able to try Mezza Luna when living in Jax but gave it a shot when I returned to visit and I'm so glad I did! We were a large party without a reservation but the host managed to get us seated after just a couple minutes. The place was very cute with dimmed lights. Our server got to us right away and came back with drinks not long after as well. For appetizers, we went for the Mussels, polpette and some truffle fries. Mussels could have used some salt but aside from that, everything tasted great with lots of seasoning. For the entree, I did the fetuccini Alfredo with Shrimp. What I loved about this dish was the unique flavor the peppers gave it. Shrimp was cooked to perfection and went really well with the red pepper Alfredo sauce. We were too full to even order dessert even though I wish I did. I must point out, this place is really into detail and has little sections on the menu that point out to vegan/vegetarian and even no garlic options so there is something for everyone. Will be returning on my next visit to Jax! read more

We had a fantastic dining experience at Sliders! The special--seared snapper served with corn salsa, creamy mashed potatoes, and a vibrant cilantro pesto. It was absolutely delicious. You could taste how fresh and well balanced everything was. My husband ordered the same dish and loved it just as much. We ended the meal with a Bananas Foster cheesecake that was truly spot on. You could actually see and taste the banana folded into the cheesecake. It was rich, flavorful, and the perfect sweet ending. The service was excellent. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The ambiance is relaxed and coastal, like a calm day by the sea. We'll definitely be back! read more

Delicious dinner at Mezza Luna to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. We started with the beef tartare, mussels, and truffle fries. All of which were delicious, but choose the mussels if you can only have one. For my entree, I had the Pan Seared Diver Scallops which were served over a corn and Parmesan risotto, which I loved. My boyfriend had the Spinach Raditore, which wasn't his favorite but may have been because he asked for no cheese on the dish when it comes with it. Dinner at Mezza never disappoints. read more

Whoa!! Was the food good? Yes.. was it timed and staged absolutely NOT! We were seated at 5:30 given water and 10 minutes later our server reappeared. We ordered drinks, appetizer, salad and entree. They were out of a ghost pepper tequila and so I reordered. Drinks came, salad came appetizer came and while eating the appetizer our entree came. What the hell? $180.00 tab and we were out by 6:27! That's all. Picture of the entree only because it sat the longest on our table waiting for us to finish our mussel appetizer. Certainly will not make my rotation! read more

My first time at Mezza and did not disappoint. Love this place. The chicken Alfredo and the short ribs plates were both yummy. The fried calamari is the best in Jax. My old fashion was also perfect.

Husband and I went for a date night. The front room was super busy but they put us in the formal dining room in front of the fireplace. It was perfect. Anita was our server and she was fantastic!

Just had a pizza at Mezza Luna and was listening to Instagram reels. NO ONE anywhere near me! The hostess, Beth Ann rudely asked me to cut the volume down. There was NO ONE anywhere near me. Music was playing, people talking at the bar. my server Casey immediately started saying how much she loved working there. suck up. The Italian restaurant down from the old Ragtime, Salumeria has much better food and their staff is amazing. Second time Mezza Luna has been unfriendly. Cheers to Salumeria!! read more

We are New York pizza snobs. While this is not New York style, it is really delicious. Very thin and flavorful. It was the first time I got a Mezza salad. I changed up the mixed greens for Romaine lettuce with no problem. It was great. Our server, Kristin, was very attentive and friendly. The whole staff greeted us on our way in and on the way out. We sat out on a covered patio, but there is also a more formal dining room and bar area as well. read more

AMBIANCE / SERVICE: Mezza Luna was decorated very nicely and gave a romantic vibe as my husband and I sat by the window. There's lots of tables inside and outside, but given the delicious food, I'd recommend making a reservation on a busy night. Martha, our server, was very attentive and gave great recommendations. FOOD: I ordered the French Pear while my husband ordered the Ghost Berry Margarita. I thought my French Pear was very tasty. However, my husband's Ghost Berry Margarita was the drink on top for the night. Martha even gave my husband a recommendation of putting Tajin on the rim instead of sugar, which was a great recommendation. For appetizers, we ordered the Buratta and Crispy Brussels Sprouts. Both dishes were amazing. I couldn't get enough of the Crispy Brussels Sprouts and honestly could have requested more of those. For our main dishes, we ordered the Crispy Duck Leg, which came with bread pudding, and a balsamic reduction. Then, we got the Fresh Fettuccine with Chicken. All of their pastas are made fresh and you could definitely tell with my pasta dish. I'd have to say this is one of the best fettuccine dishes I've tasted in a while. For dessert, we ordered Tiramisu. I think this dish was a little too salty and definitely needed the strawberries to sweeten it up. Martha had recommended we go with the bread pudding as it was her favorite, but I couldn't resist trying the tiramisu as that's one of my favorite desserts in general. Overall, Mezza Luna was a fantastic date night spot and we will definitely be going back! read more

Good place to make an impression. Be sure to make a reservation or be ready to wait your turn. Options to enjoy a variety of seating venues with different vibes. Can be seated inside, outside, or hang out at the bar. Food was cooked just right and flavors were on point. I forgot my credit card, went back a couple days later and they had saved it. They asked to check my ID before returning it to me so they earned trust points there. Thank you Mezza Luna Team! read more

Reservations with a large party, we were seated in quiet dining area. The other side with the bar is a be very different vibe. We were thrilled to be seated here as we were family in town for a wedding, and wanted a quiet area so we could catch up. The food and the service were outstanding! Excellent Italian cuisine. Drinks were delicious and well crafted. If I'm ever in area again will definitely return to dine here. The food was that good! I'm from NY so I'm very particular about good Italian food. You will not be disappointed here. We had a variety of appetizers and meals, that everyone was pleased with. read more

The ambience was phenomenal; was like being in Italy, think lady and the tramp when they are kissing with the spaghetti! Food was hearty and satisfying reminding me of my Nona's cooking back in the hills of Tuscany overlooking the small painted rock in the middle of the town square. While we were there we tried the fettuccine, the pappardelle, meatballs, truffle fries and gnocchi. We ended with an exquisite dessert of tiramisu. It reminded me of first time I ever saw a full eclipse; a once every seven year sensational feeling that I've been chasing ever since. I fell for with the waitress (figuratively), she had a great attitude behind those stylish glasses. Hope to visit again but if not I'll leave this world a happier man than I ever could've imagined read more

Love this place, I dine often! The service is always exceptional. Favorite dishes on the menu are the basil pizza and the red pepper pasta. Tried the duck this time, it was good but I realized I'm not the biggest duck fan. Also, HIGHLY recommend the bread pudding with caramel sauce. Do not leave without it, it is by far the best dessert I've had. read more

We had a number of apps, desserts and cocktails--no pics but I can tell you they were equally as good. Put Mezza on your list! read more

Already planning my next trip back here!! I made a reservation for a Saturday night at 7:00, I am not sure if they do walk-ins, but the option to make a reservation was there so I wanted to be on the safe side. We arrived 15 minutes early and were immediately sat. We were brought some yummy bread to eat with our bottle of wine. (Huge list of wines to choose from BTW) For our starter we got mussels in a white wine sauce - yum! For main dishes, we got clam linguini (it was ok - I'd personally probably go for something else. 7.9/10) and the short rib pappardelle which was SO good. 10/10! We were too full to get dessert but the options all looked delicious and they had a good selection. This place had a great vibe for date night or for a small group, it was quiet but nice. Service was great and our server answered all of our questions we had about the menu! read more

This place delivered every expectation; great food, excellent selection of plates and good prices. I went for the Pappaderlle with short ribs and it was very good. I also tried the duck and it was very good. The service was good, but I got the impression that they were short staffed. Try to pick an inside table if you go during the summer. There's ample parking and they have valet on the back. Enjoy read more

Food is great. Service is great. A great little Italian restaurant in NB/AB. Recommend this place.

My husband and I enjoyed a great meal at Mezza Luna last night... very nice and warm ambiance with great food.

Vacation stop. What a nice stop. The food was made perfectly. I had a filet mignon you could cut with a fork Had a calamari appetizer that was mouth watering The atmosphere of the restaurant was great And our server was top notch. She was on her "A" game and took great care of us. This is a must stop if you're in the area read more

My family and I recently enjoyed a delicious dinner here to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday! None of us had eaten here before and we wanted to try something new. The restaurant has a romantic and welcoming ambiance and is decorated nicely. There are several different seating areas that each have there own unique features. We sat in the main dining room and loved the artwork. The servers took good care of us as we enjoyed some celebratory wine and champagne. For appetizers, we ordered the calamari which was crisp and flavorful. The lemon served with the squid had a cover to prevent the seeds from falling on the plate which was a nice touch. Dinner included lasagna, ragu, scallops and an assortment of pizzas. Everything was beautifully presented and flavorful. I ordered the scallop dish and was impressed by their butternut squash risotto and wine reduction. The dish was 10/10! For dessert, we shared a lemon blueberry cheesecake which was the perfect conclusion to our meal. I'd recommend this restaurant for a date night or a large group. Make sure to get a reservation in advance and give yourself extra time for parking! read more

Great location. Very unmemorable food overall. Prosciutto pizza was on point, fettuccine Alfredo w shrimp also good. Calamari, greasy and worse than most bars! Same for tres carne pizza, yuck. Party of 5 and not a single person liked it! Surprise of the night was the bread pudding -- server recommended it and it was absolutely insanely delicious though crazy spendy at $14. Best item of the night. Will not be back, far to $$$$, for quality of food. read more

A long time local favorite in Neptune Beach, and one of my Top Restaurants for Date Night featured on JacksonvilleMom.com. Dine alfresco under the covered patio, or in the dining room designed with gorgeous wood and rustic brick detail. I recently went with a girlfriend and my favorite bite was the pizza. I'm a sucker for a wood fired oven pizza. For the main course, I had the short rib ragu served with pappardelle, herbed ricotta and topped with Parmesan breadcrumbs. I paired it with a nice Cabernet Sauvignon. My friend enjoyed the branzino, which is a delicious Mediterranean seabass. read more
