Mezzo, Italian for 'middle', is a pair of Italian neighbourhood restaurants, in Holon and here at 5 Shaar Yafo Street, serving a local Italian menu with Mediterranean influences. Its site says it was founded by three restaurateurs with long experience in the Italian kitchen; the menu has fresh handmade pasta, Neapolitan pizzas from dough left to rise for 24 to 48 hours, gnocchi, agnolotti and tortellini, and seasonal starters and salads from local growers, in a farm-to-table approach. It serves breakfasts and brunch every day of the week, lunches, and dinners with a list of Israeli and imported wines. The Rishon LeZion branch is open from 8:30 to midnight from Sunday to Thursday and until 15:00 on Friday, and opens again about an hour after Shabbat ends.
