cafe mezzanotte

Did you know? One of Wilmington's neighborhood Italian restaurants has received a major makeover! Stop in and see what everyone is raving about!

Sergio Pellegrino, chef, owner and one of the nicest gentleman you'll have the pleasure to meet invites you to experience his authentic Mediterranean Italian fare. A Wilmington staple since 2003, Sergio has been warming the hearts and stomachs of Wilmingtonians and weary travelers for years.

Cafe Mezzanotte

On Wednesday, October 11th, he celebrated a grand-reopening of his renovated restaurant where he humbly thanked devoted fans including Mayor Michael Purzycki and City Council President Hanifa Shabazz for their devoted patronage. The stylish restaurant with emerald walls and industrial lighting now matches the level of prestige of the delicious food. The menu has received a face-lift as well, making guest's favorite staples permanent such as the Cioppino, a seafood arrangement with pasta that is a favorite in Southern Italy. The well adored homemade bread and pasta will remain. 

To celebrate the grand re-opening,  there will be complimentary appetizers during happy hour from 4-7 PM on Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday! Additionally, for the upcoming holiday season, should you purchase a $50 minimum gift certificate, a 20% bonus will be added to the certificate!

If you are looking for the perfect room for your private party look no further. The Milano room (for 20-25 people) and the Roma room (12 people) are both perfect for holiday events and meetings! 

Sergio is looking forward to making you feel right at home. Click here to make your reservation.
