Roberto Pugliese, Giovanni Marzocca, and José Marquez, whose culinary career had taken them all over the world, founded Mezzaluna Italian Restaurant over 25 years ago.

Mezzaluna serves southern Italian cuisine with a California twist, using only the finest meats, fish, and fruit, much of which is sourced locally. The restaurant lies 20 miles south of San Francisco, near the center of Silicon Valley, in Princeton by the Sea.

History It was built in 1867 and is a California Historical Landmark because it was the first non native residence to be constructed in Crockett. The Carquinez Women's Club has been caringly preserving the integrity of this beautiful home over the years, and it is currently being maintained and controlled by the organization. It has been in the care of the Carquinez Women's Club since 1974 that the Old Homestead and gardens are maintained. The Crockett Lions Club was the driving force behind the extensive restorations. New window coverings, interior painting, a disability ramp, a bathroom addition, the repair of the former bathroom, and more were all done as part of the remodeling project. Several organizations, including the Crockett Community Foundation, C&H Sugar Company, and the Carquinez Women's Club, all graciously contributed to the success of these initiatives. Northern California Historical Event Venue The Old Homestead and Gardens' natural beauty, along with the rich history of the property, makes this ideal setting a popular destination for a variety of events, from casual barbecues to elegant weddings. The garden's attraction is enhanced by the fact that it is surrounded by a lovely woodland area and a quaint period residence, creating a sense of intimate privacy. The Old Homestead is a proud monument to the past, and those who pass through its gates become a part of its long-held history of hospitality. The Old Homestead and Gardens is a Performance & Event Venue, a Wedding Venue, and a Landmark & Historical Place.
