We love Chefs of Napoli...the best! Also Giovanni's is pretty good. But Mezza Luna, pretty bad.

Taco Bell on 466. Love it. Went there the other night, and the service was excellent. Free refills on drinks, also. The best anniversary dinner, yet, AND no tipping!

Agree with MAXMAN! Similar experiences with service/food.

We also enjoy Carrabas, Chefs of Napoli, and Giovannis. I would not call Carrabas true Italian, but I love the mussels and pork chops. Chefs of Napoli is a little cramped for space. We have been there 3 or 4 times (including last New Years Eve) and never had a bad meal.

My wife and I went to the Millenia Mall on Tuesday and had an excellent lunch at Brio. I had Gorgonzola crusted lamb chop in a marsala wine sauce and my wife had Lasagna Bolognese. They served scrumptious olive oil infused flat bread crackers along with a nice hard crusted Italian bread (missing from Mezza Luna). We both also enjoyed their selection of wine by the glass.

We went to Mezza Luna last week. They were crowded. 3 large parties. Service was a little slow but not bad. The food was good. No complaints. A wise woman once told me "there are people in this world who would complain about the food and service at "The Last Supper".
As I said before, I rarely complain about service. It has to be really bad. However in all fairness to Mezza Luna, I have eaten at the bar during this past summer and had a good meal and service. The place was empty that day.

I ran into some friends at City Fire last night. They just got done eating at Mezza Luna. They said there was a nice crowd and their meals and service were very good.

You have a smart wife. I bet she likes everything you cook.

Brio's is worth the trip! And I love their Basil Pear Fizz cocktail. They also have call-ahead seating.
