Great food, excellent service. This restaurant has been renamed "Bella Luna," and it has moved down the block to the corner of 8th and Christian Streets. Currently, it's BYOB, but they're supposed to have a liquor license soon. We had dinner here, and the food was wonderful. My husband had the gnocchi, and I had the fettucini special with mushrooms, shrimp and artichokes in a cream sauce. Both were to die for! The decor was bright and welcoming, surpassed only by the attentive service provided by the friendly staff. We will definitely be returning to this place. Next time, we'll try the Caesar salad, which is still prepared tableside here.…
New Location, New ownership.....the Chef!!!!. BELLA LUNA formely known as Mezza Luna is now under ownership of the chef... PIETRO!!! This homestyle family restaurant has definetley taken a step up. The new location is defineltly alot bigger than the previous one and is now strictly a BYOB!!! The ceasar salad was prepared tableside by a lovely gentleman named Max....it was to die for!!! The branzino was also cooked to perfection and filleted tableside, and as if things couldn't get any better Pietro offered us both a complimentary glass of wine because my husband left the bottle in the car!!! Just when I thought I couldn't handle another bite, we were presented with a lovely tray of italian homemade desserts. My husband and I shared the tirumisu....the best I've ever had. If your looking for a great restaurant for a first date, rehearsal dinner, or just to bring the family out BELLA LUNA IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!!!…

Extraordinary Italian Restaurant in South Philly.
From the moment you enter until you leave you are treated to special attention and fantastic Italian food. Our party of five from out of town thoroughly enjoyed the lentil soup, salad, mussels, and
entrees from lamb chops to sea bass and pollo parmagiana. Save room for the delicious dessert crepes with wonderfully flavored fruit compote.
We will make Mezza Luna a required stop whenever we are in the city.…

great performance by Max while he made us homemade bananas foster and crepes alaska!!! it didn't disappoint!
