Bar Mezzana never disappoints. We attended the Feast of the Seven Fishes offering. Everything was excellent. Really well formulated menu with perfect wine pairings. I didn’t think I liked smelts-they proved me wrong!

Beautiful restaurant. Friendly and knowledgable service. Amazing food. Wonderfully slow paced tasting menu and wine pairing made for a near perfect Christmas dinner. Overall I highly recommended for that special occasion.

From the moment you walk in the door, it’s as if you stepped back in time. The pink Christmas theme going throughout was adorable. Everyone was friendly and the food was phenomenal. My party especially liked the lasagna, that’s only served on Sundays. The one and only downfall is their house Cabernet is not good. That is the only one you can buy by the glass so you have to buy a bottle. But no problem they wrap it up for you to take home. I cannot wait to go back.
