Surprisingly busy but we were still.able to walk in in a Wednesday evening for dinner.
Recommend the Beef ravioli, the clams and the home made gelato.

We have been coming to Mezzaluna for years. Definitely our favorite Italian spot in the Monterey area. I would recommend making a reservation as the resturaunt isn’t huge and it fills up quick! Intimate atmosphere, excellent service and fantastic food. The cocktails are great and definitely save room for a tiramisu for dessert!

Fresh pasta joint in Pacific Grove. Parking is easy and situated in local dining area. Walnut Old Fashioned was top notch and the duck pate was excellent. Pastas are on the firmer side but with nice chew; sauce work is well executed. Portions are small to medium. As for desserts, gelato is more icey than smooth; flour less chocolate cake was classic.

Had dinner here for my birthday with my young daughters on a whim with last minute reservations – it was perfect! Service was impeccable and made the evening truly special. The kids claimed it was their favorite part of vacation. The food was also incredible. We will be returning next time we are in Monterey!

Food – Solid pasta, bread and burrata looked good. Note that their portion sizes are likely more than what you’re used to at an Italian restaurant.
Service – Top notch. We even missed our reservation and they accommodated us in their hangout area.
Overall, highly recommend. Please do yourself a favor and get a reservation!

Loved everything from appetizers to dessert! Cocktails were excellent—the watermelon Aperol spritz was especially refreshing. We tried the bucatini all’amatriciana, rigatoni alla buttera, flourless chocolate cake with strawberry gelato, and the affogato—all absolutely delicious!

Great local pasta place. Pasta made onsite – and it shows! (And tastes). Affordable wine-list. Great service. Could be busy – make reservations. We’ve been here a few times, consistently great. Try duck pate.

Came here for my birthday, and everything was AMAZING. The ambiance is chilled, but very warm and welcoming. The staff was very attentive, sweet, extremely knowledgeable about the menus. The food did NOT disappoint! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and tasted like it was made with love! I highly recommend trying their lamb meatballs with polenta as an appetizer! Can’t wait to come back!

Unbelievable. Amazing service and food. We had several servers check on us throughout the night. Highly recommend. Even the Elderflower mocktail was amazing. Will definitely be going back! The crab ravioli and scallop special were fantastic! The homemade pasta was delicious!

We tried this place out because they offer outdoor seating. There are not a lot of outdoor tables. The seating is literally on the sidewalk along the front of the restaurant facing the street parking lot. There is a parking lot next door but can be crowded during busy times. Overall the food was okay. Some dishes we loved and others not so much. The staff was friendly and helpful.
