Mezza Luna Pizzeria

We ordered office lunches today. We each got a different salad. They were so big! and so good! We used Delivered Dish for order and delivery.

Ugh. I remember eating at a Mezza Luna in 2003 in Portland, OR when I lived there for 8 months. I remember enjoying the food then, but now, YUCK! Maybe as a chain restaurant, it has just gone downhill. I went to this Springfield location the other day to grab a Caesar salad to take to a workshop. What a mistake! When I got to sit down and open the box the container was stuffed w/​romaine lettuce and there were two slender toasted crisp bread strips across the top (that is supposed to cover the croutons that should be in a Caesar salad) and a wedge of lemon. The lettuce was covered in some coating that reeked of garlic. The flavor was like garlic flavored canola oil w/​something that resembled Parmesan cheese but must have been Kraft (it had no flavor). The taste of the gunk and the weird flavor of the lettuce (must not be organic and probably some bagged SYSCO gmo lettuce trucked up from CA) made me stop after 4 bites. Just awful.
I ended up taking my 98 percent full box and putting it out on a bench for someone who might be desperately hungry. I was not.

Best pizza in Eugene/​Springfield. Great atmosphere and service. A little pricy but totally worth it!

Best pizza in town!!! ordered to pick up one night, liked it so much ordered the next night and will probably order many times again… Very yummy!!!

My son & I finally tried their pizza today after walking by many times. I love that they sell pizza by the slice & have many options that change daily. The pizza slice was large & tasty. Very good pizza! We also we’re able to add a salad for $ 3.50 which was a big mistake the dressing was awful! I tried the ranch, blue cheese and balsamic vinaigrette all were nasty! I finally ate the salad dry. Next time I’ll skip the salad and order a second slice of pizza.

I’ve had three gluten free pizzas from this place, and they have all been terrific. They have a great variety of vegetarian options, their crust is crispy, and their store is clean. The prices were reasonable. My son loves the old Donkey Kong game too. I wish I lived closer!

love Mezza Luna! feel stupid I didn’t know they came to Springfield forever ago!! duh! going tomorrow. Hope they got beer.

After hearing great things about Mezza Luna, I was really excited to give it a try. My parents were visiting town for my graduation, and since we’re all big fans of pizza, I decided this would be a good time to try it. It was a bit of a jaunt from where I lived and where my parents were staying, so we made sure to leave ample time between when we left and when Mezza Luna closed for the night.
We arrived about 25 minutes prior to closing. The place itself was different than I had anticipated. It looked more like a cheap carry out place than a restaurant serving $ 15-​minimum pizzas. The décor was cold, boring, and not very inviting. It seems like a restaurant having an identity crisis: it doesn’t know whether to be a cheap by-​the-​slice joint or a high-​end pizza restaurant.
As soon as we arrived, we told the lady at the counter we wanted to get a pizza to go, and she informed us, in a rather unfriendly tone, the oven was already off for the night. What? I could understand if we had come in, say, five or ten minutes prior to closing, but we’re talking almost half an hour prior to closing. Don’t advertise your hours as being open until 9 if you really mean 8:30 (and who closes a pizza joint at 9 on a Friday, anyways?). I myself have worked in food service, and this simply isn’t acceptable customer service. After protesting a bit and telling them we had just driven 20 minutes to get this pizza, the cooks agreed to make one for us.
We ordered The Boot, which is Italian sausage, gorgonzola cheese, roasted red and yellow peppers, onions, and roasted garlic with mozzarella and tomato sauce. This was some fabulous pizza. The onions provided a sweetness which contrasted nicely with the salty gorgonzola cheese. There was plenty of roasted garlic too, which provided an additional mild sweetness and garlicky goodness. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy. You could tell the ingredients were all very high quality.
Had the service been friendly, and had they been willing to make our pizza from the beginning, this would have been a five star rating. The pizza was truly delicious. I do value customer service, though, and Mezza Luna just couldn’t deliver. Therefore, they’re more deserving of the three stars I’m giving them.

It was average, I do have to say all the ingredients looked fresh and local, maybe the choice of pizza I got was just not the best plus I am not a fan of thin pizza at all, its the kind of pizza you want to fold in half (also why I dislike sizzle pie) I also ordered a medium Cesar salad which was HUGE and had amazing homemade crutons, but wish I would have ordered extra dressing before leaving it was a little light and I like more Cesar. The décor and location is beautiful. Parking is not as bad as you would think for being right on main, all in all I would go back and give it another try.

My family loves Mezza Luna, it is our favorite pizza in the area! It is NY style but with a PNW twist and always fresh ingredients. Their salads are fantastic too. Love the lunch deal with a slice and salad.

Same as my other reviews of Mezza Luna.
This brand has the best NY style pizza in town.
Of course in a Eugene based establishment you always get served by some dude with dreads named Rainbow — but doesn’t smell like a rainbow.
3 – 4 dollars per slice with about 4 pizza’s in the window that they will take back to the oven to crisp up. Salads are pretty tasty and healthy as well, just don’t bite down on the pitted olives like I have done on more than one occasion. Luckily their are a plethora of dentists in the area if need be.
This location has a lot less foot traffic than the other 2 in town so the pizza turnover is not quite as great with the pies.

I’m so happy to have a good pizza-​by-​the-​slice place within walking distance from my house. I love their crust. It’s crunchy and chewy without being overly dry. I like a thin crust that doesn’t get soggy. They have a small but good selection of beer on tap. Their salads are good too. The large size salad is big enough for two people. The pizzas they offer by the slice are huge with a good variety of veggie and meat options including the obligatory pepperoni and cheese slices. The counter service is good, friendly and prompt, although we did have a little shrug moment on our first visit. My husband is allergic to pine nuts. The nice person at the counter didn’t know what nuts were in the pesto, but that’s not a big issue. The price is right on for the lack of table service (bus your own) and the quality/​quantity of the slices. This is a fantastic addition to downtown Springfield.

Delicious little place! Has become my favorite pizza in the area so far! Just wish they had maybe one or two more varieties for «By the Slice» that they have everyday.

Clean & warm dining area. Super friendly staff and the best pizza around. So, so delicious.

Great pizza, great service, and the small tap list always has something good. Vegetarian friendly!

Alright, so this Mezza Luna location definitely experience some growing pains (see my prior review). But I have been there twice since I wrote my first review. Once on the request of the manager, who kindly gave us a credit for a pizza in an effort to prove that they could do better (and they did) and a second time to make sure that my first visit back wasn’t an anomaly.
Both times the service was friendly and quick. Both times the pizza was excellent. I, admittedly, have not gotten a pizza with garlic on it because of the bad experience last time. But we did get a pizza with potatoes and they were fully cooked — thank goodness.
I was very hesitant to try this location again, but I’m glad that I did. The Springfield Mezza Luna has definitely redeemed itself from my prior experience. Lets hope that it continues!

Mezza Luna Pizzeria has arrived and I couldn’t be happier about it. They have an excellent menu that includes traditional pizzas as well as vegetarian options.
My wife and I really love their Luna lunch selection of a slice and a salad. Very filling and delicious. They also have select beers on tap. Pizza and beer are like peas and carrots after all. ;-)
Our first time in today proved to be everything we have come to expect from eating at the other two locations. Great service and great food. What’s not to like?
