I have nothing against veal cutlets, but NOT served as veal marsala or veal piccata. I sent the dish back and ordered a pasta dish, which was very good. The manager came out and told me that they'd stopped serving the medallions of veal because they were getting complaints that the medallions were tough! Well, I'm thinking "huh?" and I told him to "buy better quality veal". This doesn't seem like an unsolvable problem, but simple common sense. I hope he listened!
I don't know which Mezza Luna web site you saw the menu on, but the official site for the restaurant in Colony Plaza is mezzalunagrill.com, and as of this morning the only menu they have online so far is their lunch menu, which doesn't have Veal Marsala on it... only a veal parm sandwich. The direct link to that menu is mezzalunagrill.com/products.html.

The lunch menu you'll find there is a little hard to read because of a small rendering of the text, but if you use <ctrl>+ you can increase the size of it, making it easier to read.

Now I'm not contending that you didn't see what you saw online, nor that you didn't experience the veal as you describe, but I'd appreciate it if you would please indicate the website address of where you did see the menu you refer to! Thanks!

Anyway, we've had food from Mezza Luna a number of times and although we can't speak about the veal you've had, we have had no complaints so far. Just this Saturday morning we stopped there and we both had the Eggs Florentine and loved it. Matter of fact, we loved it so much that my wife is out as I write and plans on getting the VF again and bringing it back home for us.
