Mezzaluna Restaurant

Mezzaluna Restaurant, at 11750 San Vicente Boulevard in Brentwood, appears throughout the criminal and civil records concerning the evening of June 12, 1994. The February 7 criminal-trial summary states that testimony placed Ron Goldman's departure from Mezzaluna at approximately 9:50 p.m., intending to deliver a pair of prescription glasses. Restaurant-related testimony and exhibits addressed Nicole Brown Simpson's June 12 receipt, Goldman's employment there, and the routes and timing described by diners Ellen Aaronson and Danny Mandel; Aaronson testified that a manager told her the receipt clock was off by an hour, while Mandel described walking by Darlington and Gorham to the restaurant's back door. On February 12, 1995, the jury viewed Mezzaluna during a tour that also included Goldman's apartment, the Bundy crime scene, and Simpson's Rockingham estate.
