Situated in the heart of the Melville Restaurant district, Mezzaluna is a café – style eatery with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It’s inviting interior with jazz and soul playing from old radios mounted on the walls, is bright and airy by day and warm and intimate by night. Tow fireplaces inside ensure that the winter cold is kept at bay and an outside courtyard filled with flora and an ivy canopy is a perfect seating area for warm summer days and nights.
The cosmopolitan menu ranges from breakfasts and light meals to generously portioned main courses. Weekly specials are on offer and kitchen is open all day until late. Be sure to try Mezzaluna’s chicken pasta, which is fast becoming legendary. Other note – worthy dishes include the stuffed calamari starter, the honey-glazed lamb shank and the restaurants very own chocolate stuffed banana, served with homemade cinnamon ice cream. Vegetarians are also well catered for with various starters and mains to choose from. Reservations are recommended for weekends and set menus can be arranged ahead of time for larger bookings.
Café Mezzaluna, with its charming ambience and good service has become a firm Melville favourite.
