Carri’s Catch: Search for the half moon in the several paintings that decorate the walls. Italian artists
sent over the unique works of art, each working in their own version of a half moon, staying true to
the “mezzaluna” theme.
Mezzaluna is also open for lunch (11:30-3), Happy Hour (3-5:30), and dinner (5:30-close).
