Yes it is Sal who still owns Mezza Luna in Manalapan, NJ who has opened up a new Italian restaurant here in The Villages. Having moved from NJ to The Villages over two years ago I have tried all the Italian restaurants in our community in search of a good pizza. Nothing can come close to the quality and taste of what I grew up with until now.
I have enjoyed lunch at the new Mezza Luna twice this week. Beautifully decorated, comfortable seating, excellent friendly service from a well trained staff, reasonable prices and most importantly .... the fabulous Italian food. You will not be disappointed!!
Finally tasty pasta dishes, salads, sandwiches, soups, appetizers, PIZZA!!!!, calzones....all prepared under the supervision of the Imperiale family who have owned over 17 restaurants. They are currently open just for lunch. Enjoy!

Yes, someone else posted the website, however, Sal, one of the owners, said the menu here will not be as big as that one but it will give you an idea.

I had posted their website (Mezza Luna Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria, Manalapan NJ 07726) earlier, but it was the site for the NJ location. Since then I found that their website will be Mezzalunagrill.com, but currently the site is parked. (parked means temporary generic file(s) stored on their provider's server until Mezza Luna's files are ready for uploading) Once their web pages are ready to go and uploaded we'll hopefully have access to their menu. This could actually happen any day now. In the mean time you may want to bookmark the address for easier/quicker access later on!

I looked through the window 11/2/13 and the impression that I have if you are looking for a quiet place to have Lunch/Dinner this is not going to be your first choice. To me it looks like a very small version of Carrabbas located in Lady Lake, complete with a bar to the left rear. The tables are very close together with a few booths.

I wish them well, but. The food is really going to have to be Outstanding in order for them to get repeat customers. That folks is reality and the bottom line.

To me, it feels like many SF restaurants -- small, close quarters but still worth going to. The food is good. I think (hope) it will do okay here.

Had lunch there yesterday and can't wait to go back, again, today. SO GOOD!
Service was great....food was great, had a Philly cheese steak and a "REAL" pizza...I just never get too excited over flat breads as pizzas. So much on the menu I want to try. I expect it will be difficult to get in to this place in a few more days when the word gets out.

Love small, close quarter places like French bistros. Are the lights too dim? Hope not. Some darkness are preferred but don't care for restaurants with too dim lights to bring about so called atmosphere but too dark to know what we are eating. Cheers for a new cozy restaurant!

Can easily read the menu, so not too dark. Don't know when the official opening is, but it is definitely opened to the public now. Mangia!

Perception does not always qualify as reality.
