"This was our first time visiting Mezzaluna and while we were excited at first, this soon changed to the opposite. I did appreciate that the business was thriving with plenty of tables taken at the time we were dining, but what truly fell short was the forgetful service. Mezzaluna surely didn’t have a shortage of staff but I do think the management could be better so the team can operate like a well-oiled machine. Three times into our dining experience the waiter forgot something. Technically it was every time we’ve requested for something something would be amiss. I’m aware they’re busy but it gets tiring trying to remind the waiter and these were simple requests like a wine, a spoon, etc. In addition, I was absolutely not a fan of the waiter and reservationist addressing one out of two in a party. They kept on addressing my partner. Mind you, I’m the one that paid for dinner in this case. Regardless, this is and women are equal and the restaurant should be reminded of that. I found it to be very rude addressing only one person in a party (what am I? A ghost and thank goodness they’re not striving for a Michelin star. Other than that, food was delicious and no complaints there whatsoever. Huge portions for sure. Would we consider coming back? Absolutely not. There’s a plethora of restaurants in the Hudson Valley and Mezzaluna won’t be missed for sure."

"However, the pricing can be quite confusing. Just the other week, I ordered two regular slices of cheese, and the total came to over $9. I naively accepted that and went to get more change, only to return and find the total was actually around $6. The owner was there during the whole situation, which left me puzzled, as it seems the prices can vary from week to week and from person to person. The quality of the pizza can be hit or miss; sometimes it's delicious, while other times it can be stale and dry. Here’s my take on a few items: - Garlic Knots: 9/10 (fantastic) - Cheese Calzone: 5/10 (plain and basic; not great even with sauce) - White Slice: 6/10 (not really my preference; just giving it a try) - Grandma Slice: 9/10 (always hits the spot; love it) - Ravioli: 6/10 (too pricey and has a strange aftertaste, in my opinion) - Regular Slice: 7/10 (hard to go wrong with this) - Deep Dish Pizza: 7/10 (decent) - Chicken Parmigiana Pizza: 6/10 (not the best combo; chicken on pizza isn’t ideal for me) For a meal for one person, you can expect to spend around $6 to $15, depending on your appetite. As for vegetarian options, there aren’t many, but there are a few available. Parking is plentiful, and while the place is generally suitable for kids, most diners tend to be adults. Unfortunately, the restaurant does not offer wheelchair accessibility. Service is take-out only. Here’s my assessment: - Food: 4/5 - Service: 3/5 - Atmosphere: 5/5 I recommend trying the Pepperoni Garlic Knots, Regular Slice of Pizza with Garlic Knots, Grandma Pizza, and Pepperoni Knots. For vegetarians, I would somewhat recommend it, as vegetarian dishes are clearly labeled. Overall, there’s plenty of free parking available."
