Bistro Mezzaluna

The food was excellent and the service was fantastic. The waiter was friendly and very helpful.

We had reservation. On arrival no hostesses at desk. Waited 3 minutes and I went to look for someone so we can be seated. Seemed to be one of the owners who was in obvious bad mood leading to a poor welcoming start for the dinner experience. At table the candle was not lit and had to ask for a lit one. Not picky but on a $200 plus dollar dinner I do expect to spare careless mistakes that otherwise I could tolerate at TGI Fridays or some place like that. Service was good and attentive all the time. The indoor area which is where we sat is hidden, no windows, no interesting deco, making you feel in a room full of emptiness and isolation. Outside patio appeared much better option. Atmosphere bad. No music or energetic vibe, in fact boring, soundless like in a hotel restaurant in the 1900’s. At 43yo we were the youngest couple in the restaurant at least in the indoor area were we sat. Average age 60’s up so there you have the atmosphere explanation. Food is blunt and not creative. Expect dishes from the 1900’s also. For a restaurant on that category level of expectations I’d recommend many other in the beautiful Fort Lauderdale area and Bistro Mezzaluna is definitely not one of them. Kid-friendliness: Not the place for kids

We have been saying for months that we should try this place and….I thought it was great. To start, we had the burrata salad and lobster bisque, both were so delicious, the chunks of lobster were huge, and the salad was fresh and light. The bread served was soft and flavorful and the butter was regular restaurant butter. For the main event he got the wagyu steak and I had the snapper in a very delicious sauce topped with crap meat…SO GOOD, better than the steak and cheaper too. The scallion mash was creamy and tasty, and asparagus was not cooked enough for me. We had the most experienced and witty waiter, he was amazing, and talked us into the most delicious dessert. We have the tiramisu with coffee gelato, absolute heaven, light, rich (but not too).

Excellent place that we ended up at. Great drinks, food was excellent. Sat on patio and it was quiet while not being out of the way.

Went for Happy Hour. Also had an appetizer Beautiful area by the bar. Has a piano in there. Well attended. Knows everyone’s name Great after work spot

Great food - not so friendly staff except for Hailey!

Exceptional service, meal, wine, and ambience!

The seafood and fish options available here were better than expected. I would come back just for that. They ha e a really nice and extensive wine cellar.
