    This is a great small town cafe. The owner is awesome. Best breakfast. I love his pasta. Hodge is the best.

    What an awesome little place. I've been unknowingly driving past this exit for a couple of…read moredecades, while this place hid quietly in this little town. Well no more! I'm already looking forward to my next trip to ND. The burger was awesome, the waffle fries were terrific and the bartender was very welcoming and incredibly informative. Next time I've got to try one of the desserts!

    As a longtime patriot, I'm pretty upset for the service and the food I have been getting. I work…read morelong days and if I make an order I have high expectations. Recently it's been pretty disappointing. Example number one is when I ordered a pizza and I wanted the thick crust and I got the thin crust. Not a big deal what they do charge like five dollars extra for the thick crust. Example number two was really mind blowing., I just recently ordered some nachos online where I got to specifically make instructions how I wanted it. I showed up to pick them up, and the waitress who is a very sweet girl I'll give her that, but she's like it's your lucky day you get these for free, for two seconds I thought it was my lucky day. But then when I saw what they added on., they put the nacho cheese on the nachos when I specifically said, put it on the side. They added lettuce and jalapeños, which I declined to have because I don't do very good with jalapeños. It was just a disaster. I wish I would've looked at it when I walked out because I would've rather got my money back then try to eat that. I couldn't even eat it because jalapeños make my stomach hurt so bad and the juices just got everywhere. Between my last few orders being a complete failure I'm starting to think there's an issue with her online ordering. Either way when I ordered nachos and they found out that it was wrong they should've gave them to me and said take them. They're free. It's not what I ordered not even close. Why would you make somebody take something they didn't want and then try to glamorize it because it's free. So disappointed.

    Mezzaluna is one of our go-to spots in Fargo when my wife and I want a nice date night. We probably…read moremake it there 2-3 times a year, and the food and service have always been consistently great. The bison meatballs and crab cakes are our favorite appetizers. I usually get the lobster fettuccine, and my wife typically gets some kind of chicken dish. Everything we've had has been delicious. Service is always fast, attentive, and friendly as well. I also really like the atmosphere. It's nice and feels upscale, but it's not stuffy or overly formal. My only minor complaint is that I'm a big eater and wouldn't mind bigger portions, but that's certainly never stopped us from coming back. If you're looking for a nice date-night restaurant in Fargo with consistently great food, Mezzaluna is definitely one of our favorites.

It was fun and we got to try a lot of the menu! I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a place to celebrate or just wanting good food!! Service: The servers routinely stopped by to bring our next course. Our main server was there at the perfect time to check in on how everything was tasting and getting our waters topped off. Overall everyone was also just friendly! Ambiance: While the atmosphere is on the more fancy side - there was still a causal essence to the place. A lot seating options for groups, couples wanting date night, people wanting just drinks, or those looking to stop in for a quick happy hour bite!

    An update to my 2024 review, as they have a new location and expanded menu options. I stopped in…read morelast week for breakfast and for this visit (more visits to come for sure) I had the Prime Rib Brekkie sandwich with a side of fruit. It was was even better than I imagined - one of those meals where after your first bite, you pause and say OMG to yourself. My wife had the Richard's Special. She selected regular cut bacon over thick cut, and also choose the cheesy hashbrowns as the potato option. I don't recall which bread she chose. She said it all tasted great, and had me taste the potatoes, but between the bacon & potatoes, it was on the greasier side (in case you are sensitive to that). I look forward to trying the Salmon Omelette, Beignets, Biscuits & Gravy and stuffed bagel for breakfast. Then several items from the lunch side.

    I'm obsessed with the vibes, very whimsical/hippie cute, dark colors with big windows. My friend…read moreand I had a girls lunch and we sat by the window and it just felt you were in a city, which is so nice! The lunch/brunch menu had a lot of great choices. I went with the avocado toast (not pictured as it was already gone ) and fruit (pictured). I was very excited that the fruit did not contain cantaloupe or honeydew. My friend got the Fargo special (pictured) which was 10/10, had the perfect crispiness on the bread and the taste was great. All in all, I suggest supporting this downtown eatery!

The service of all the bartenders and wait staff was above and beyond 5 stars! I was seated where I could watch kitchen and I observed the 1 and only cook handle food without gloves (FDA recommends avoiding bare hand contact with ready-to-eat foods) and boasted chicken is considered just that. There was a very bare simple menu so I ordered a cheeseburger and chips and he got the white chicken. I literally saw cook put the chicken in basket bare-handed and let my husband know that while he brought our order to window and I watch waitress bring over. My cheeseburger was well over-done as was the grilling of the bun which I ate some due to not having eaten and didn't want to wait longer, but the chicken was so overcooked that you could barely use fork to peel away a bite on the breast. When he finally got a bite, it was so dry that even dipping in ranch didn't help. The outside was very dark considered to other places we've gotten chicken from. Now, I was very impressed with the service compared to prior years at watermelon days, but the food was much better. I did see staff going back to try to help, so bonus stars for that. My husband did talk to owner who was very understanding and seems to really care about her bar and restaurant, and had 2 breasts remade but they ended up to be the same way unfortunately. Maybe for bigger crowds, have more people in kitchen the whole time so food is not overcooked for which should be discounted some to customers that do receive it that way. Next year we will eat at cafe or drive to Battle Lake before street dance.
