Mona is a place to come together with friends and family.The philosophy is pure and simple:every dining experience is an opportunity to connect,converse and immerse yourself in the flavours of Italy.Our concept is inspired by the Venetian tradition of cicchetti – mouthwatering,"little bites" designed for sharing.Traditionally cicchetti must be accompanied by an “ombra” (shadow),a little glass of wine.This tradition finds its roots in Venetian Merchant’s brilliance when they placedbenches in the shadow of St. Marco Bell Towerso the wine stayed cool and cichetti soaked up the wine.At Mona, we offer a wide selection of beautiful wines and plates to share,allowing you to enjoy dining "cichetti" style.So come hungry, come thirsty, and most importantly come as you are!
A family friendly, modern Greek restaurant. Catering to dietaries, large bookings or private functions, as well as takeaway options. It is so natural for the Greeks to be drawn to hospitality roles that there is even a word with deep historical significance to describe it. ‘philoxenia’ ~ translating to ‘friend of a stranger’ (philos: friend and xenia: stranger). It is accepted as synonymous with hospitality, a willingness to share hospitality generously, and is even suggested to be part of the Greek DNA. When you dine at KALA you are no longer a stranger. You become part of the family. Kali Orexi!
We Italians like to say that a gesture is worth 1000 words. When our hands aren’t in use, creating or experimenting with canvas and brushes, marble and chisel, pan and pot, we mould air with our fingers.
CHE VUOI which translates to ‘what do you want’ is often an involuntary gesture, something we can’t help doing…
Like sharing our love for Nonna’s rustic family dishes, fresh homemade pastas, artisan wood fire pizzas and great wines in a simple and relaxed atmosphere. We would be humbled to see you come as a guest and leave as a friend.
Ciao & Buon Appetito…
