You're sure to fall in love with Mezzanotte Ristorante. This cozy Italian gem offers an intimate ambiance with dim lighting, rustic charm, and a touch of romance in every corner. Known for its house-made pastas and fresh, seasonal ingredients, the menu is a love letter to Italian cuisine.

This place still remains our favorite neighborhood italian, always greater food, try the specials! We started off with the wedge salad, the had the lasagna in pink sauce and the veal picatta. All three were excellent! The lasagna was just the perfect mix of pasta, cheese, meat and sauce - excellent flavor, but not overwhelming. The veal was tender in a scrumptious sauce with the right admit of capers. The house wine was better than expected and our waiter was excellent. Local places that are this good are hard too find. Sorry I waited so long to try them out! Had to add another picture! Great salmon at this place!

This place is just the best. We discovered it 7 or 8 years ago, and Mezzanotte is our go to place for date night or special occasions. Their seafood spaghetti, ossobucco, and lobster ravioli are absolutely incredible. Pumpkin ravioli for hors d'oeuvres.

We had the Seafood spaghetti Pescatore - only 3 mussels (1 was closed so only 2) 3 clams, 3 shrimp and 2 or 3 calamari - for $31- not worth it. Mainly spaghetti. Very disappointing. Did let the server know. She was excellent.

Wonderful place to have fine Italian cuisine. We’ve been there several times over the last few years and are always impressed with the quality and variety offered. Wine selection was great and our server, whose name escapes me, was a pleasure to deal with and she was very friendly and attentive.

The environment is perfectly cozy for casual or romantic. The food will blow your socks off. The limoncello cake makes you dance when you eat it. The wine list is legit. The cappuccinos shake off whatever tiredness you feel from the wine. The people want you to have a good time, the whole time, without being overbearing or obnoxious. 10/10 people. 10/10.

Cozy little neighborhood Italian restaurant and bar. Was very busy. Great wine selection. Lize music Saturday night. Cool place if you are nearby. Drinks are on the pricey side, might be better off with a bottle of wine.

Great little Italian restaurant. I ordered the chicken parmigiana and it was the biggest chicken piece I had ever seen! Great value there. Also this was the only place I have gone to in the states that has frengelico liquor which goes amazingly in their espresso martini! Overall great place.

Have been coming here for ages. The food is great. Down a star because they took away the house salad. It’s made from components on hand… why take it away? (Edit after owner response... for a *$8* house salad... again, why take it away? I know how much we spend, you can't be hurting *that* badly. The dressing alone has spurred many visits to your restaurant over the past 4 years.)

Very pleased with food, service and atmosphere. Place kind of hidden in a plaza corner. Live music was there and the bar just in the right place at restaurant entrance. Food was cooked to perfection. The Tiramisu by chef Mario was best I ever had…DONT CHANGE A THING on it. Our server Linsie was great! Will come back again.

Made a reservation for Friday night, outside. We got there and decided we wanted to eat inside and were accommodated right away. We went to another Italian restaurant the night before. We had the pizza there, and it was really good. The kids are away so we went out again the next night and chose Mezzanotte Ristorante. I read the reviews and love that the owner responds to most of the reviews, good or bad. I liked the Pumpkin Ravioli as the appetizer, but the wife did not care for it. We've never had it and now we know. The bread and oil was really, really good, much better that the other place we went the night before. I had the lasagna and the wife had the lamb chops. Amazing!!! We both loved our dishes. My wife ordered the pistachio mint sauce on the side because she didn't know if she would like it. Afterwards she said she should have just taken the sauce as prepared; It was that good. Next time I'm going to save room for desert.

If you're looking for a cozy and intimate place to have a date night or celebrate a special day, try Mezzanotte Ristorante. This is a hidden gem in the Cypress area. My partner and I have never been disappointed with their food and service.

Been wanting to visit this place for a while now and the wife and I chose it for our recent date night. And we were not disappointed! The food was fantastic and exceeded our expectations! We had the baby lamb chops appetizer, the caprese salad and for the main courses, the flat iron gorgonzola steak and ossobuco veal shank with risotto. Paired with the Malbec it made for a superb date night! Our waitress Karim was awesome! She prepared our bananas foster dessert right at the table and is was delicious! Highly recommend! We will be back for sure! Only negative I can share is it was a little dark at our table. We saw some tables had lamps and wished we had asked for one. This place is a hidden gem tucked back in the corner of the plaza!
