Seasonal Italian small plates and fresh pastas in a casual setting
"Before Mezzanotte showed up, the fresh pasta options in Georgetown were slim to none. So if you find yourself in the neighborhood, it's a romantic spot where you can share reginette with pork and beef ragu, candy-like charred carrots with ricotta and rye crisp shards, and cocktails that have a great balance of refreshment and bite. It's especially useful if you want some silence and candlelight (and bolognese) on your next date night." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
"Mezzanotte may be relaxed and approachable, but you can still throw down for the luxurious 8-plus course Nonnakase (a portmanteau of omakase and nonna, the Italian word for grandmother) that Jason Stratton started when he was chef here — if you can snag a reservation. Current chef Johnny Sullivan has since added a six-course family-style Piccolo Nonnakase option that starts at $90 and feels nearly as luxe as the full $150 version. There’s also an excellent a la carte menu featuring Piedmont region-inspired items like a fried octopus with hazelnut pesto and a black cod with celery root puree and maitake if you want dishes that will occupy your dreams without pushing the check into triple digits per person territory. There’s no sacrifice at Mezzanotte; all three modes amount to an undeniably special dining experience, one that’s even more special when capped off with any of the house digestivi (crafted by general manager Jayson Kochan and a must-try for amaro fans)." - Mark DeJoy
"If twirling black truffle tajarin while Donna Summers plays in the background sounds like your kind of fun, make a reservation at Mezzanotte. This Georgetown Italian restaurant is hosting "Disco al Dente" with two five-course menus to choose from and a NYE party fueled by lots of pasta and the greatest dance floor hits of the 70s." - kayla sager riley
"While star chef Jason Stratton recently departed to helm Alder & Ash, chef Johnny Sullivan is continuing the high standard Stratton set. The iconic tajarin al coltello Stratton brought over from his Spinasse days is still represented in all its glory, as are exquisitely executed other pastas like ricotta gnocchi and chantarelle risotto." - Eater Staff
"Northern Italian dishes are Mezzanotte’s specialty, and the Georgetown restaurant has two different $150 five-course menus in store for New Year’s Eve. One features the likes of braised beef cheek with vanilla parsnip puree, while the other includes a black truffle lasagna. Either way you can sit indoors or in the “Garden Cathedral,” the restaurant’s plant-filled heated and covered patio. Go here to book." - Eater Staff
