I've never really been too impressed with Mezza Notte. Maybe it is because I'm usually here for the annual office party at their location in North York, but this place really doesn't wow me. I think it's probably because I personally find that the flavour of most of the dishes are either a bit bland or too one note.
Their appetizers were decent, but once again.. could use some work on presentation and flavour. Although I thought their mussels were probably the best out of 3 appetizers, we ordered. Skip the escargot and the portabello and endive salad, too much char on the endive.
The North York location carries Cheesecake factory cheesecake, and for some reason the Thornhill location doesn't; so we eschewed it for a scoop of ice cream at the Marble slab next door.
The service is great, so if the kitchen could up their game a bit, this place would be a great place to have dinner with friends in York Region.
The restaurant seems to take reservations for large parties only,
