    Mezza Luna is a classic Italian restaurant. They always have some of the freshest and finest seafood on the coast. We both had the salmon carpaccio appetizer and the calamari dore which was tender and delicious. Highly recommended.

    We had a lovely meal, meats cooked perfectly to order. I did expect the poached pear dessert to be warm, but was right out of the refrigerator. The menu did not say it would be warm, that was just my assumption because of the word poached probably. Otherwise, all was excellent!
