About Mad over Italian - MOI Hope Island

Tucked into Hope Island Marketplace, this trattoria turns out genuine Italian comfort food without the coastal road trip. The kitchen pulls off handmade gnocchi, lamb tortelloni, and thin-crust pizza blistered to a crisp. Midday visits center on house-baked panini dough and generous lunch deals, while evening tables fill with families sharing bowls of al dente pasta. Mark an occasion here, and the floor crew signs a personal birthday card for the table before slicing into house tiramisu.

  • Handwritten Birthday Greetings: Tables booked for birthday celebrations receive a personalized greeting card hand-signed by the entire staff.
  • Generous Lunch Combos: Midday diners get a full-sized pizza or pasta, a whole garlic bread, and a glass of wine or beer for $26.
  • In-House Panini Dough: Lunchtime paninis are built on scratch dough baked fresh in-house rather than commercial sandwich loaves.
