We've upgraded the whole concept of quality service" says Mezzaluna owner Zharko Palushaj."Our servers are consummate professionals." When there's a pro behind the wheel your best bet is to sit back, relax and let them steer you in the right direction. Our server, Bennie, starts my meal with a glass of the Fabiano Amarone Storcia ($15), an Italian red with so much body it's like a hit from a Cuban cigar, while my date revels in the grapefruit and apple delicacies of her Kenwood Sauvignon Blanc ($8). She says her wine goes great with the Mezzaluna salad ($12), which consists of mixed greens, shiitake mushrooms, cannelloni beans, fresh tomatoes, olives, roasted peppers and goat cheese tossed with extra virgin olive oil and white balsamic vinegar. For dinner, she goes for the Linguine Pescatora ($25), loaded with jumbo shrimp, calamari, sea scallops, clams and mussels in a white wine tomato sauce. There's enough seafood there to populate a Pixar movie. Bennie picks the Double-Cut Veal Chop Valdostana ($37) for me; it's stuffed with Italian cheese and prosciutto and comes with a wild mushroom medley and a zippy marsala wine sauce. It's amazing, and there's a ton of it. Of course, the service is outstanding. Where else can you get five-star treatment and not have to worry about five-star price?
