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!
