Best Lunch Restaurants in Princeton

Service was excellent - attentive, but gave us tons of space to talk. The Caesar salad was very fresh and used a tasty olive oil and a hint of garlic, which is all it needs. Too many places overdo it. I had the smoked salmon with a pesto sauce and GF pasta. So good! I couldn’t resist bringing home leftovers to enjoy it again.

Great place! We tried Aspendos for the first time on the recommendation of friends and it did not disappoint. Food was creative, unique, and delicious. Portions were generous, service excellent, and at a very reasonable price point. We can’t wait to go back!

This is a great place to celebrate your birthday! The service was impeccable! We received complimentary champagne toast and a dessert of our choice at no charge. We were also given a birthday card that included an appetizer on our next visit. The manager made sure that everything Went well. We were a half hour late, but they were able to accommodate us with a smile. I recommend this restaurant highly. Thank you Season 52 for making our birthday special. We celebrate there every year!

Thanksgiving reunion dinner was amazing!

Mediterra is hands down our favorite restaurant in Princeton. The servers are attentive and helpful, the bartenders and chefs are top notch, and we've never ordered anything off their pleasing menu we didn't love. Their pastaless lasagna (a vegetarian dish) is the best I've ever had anywhere (and I'm not even vegetarian.) Their homemade whole grain bread is outstanding (as is the seasoned olive oil they serve as an accompaniment) and we always enjoy their shellfish, cocktails and seafood, too. Plus, they're open all day, for those who like later lunches and they have a great dog-friendly outdoor seating area with heaters for cooler days. My only complaint, if you can call it that, is that I do so wish they'd bring back their delectable mushroom tacos and continue the vegan menu they offered last month, as we have many vegan friends we'd like to invite. That said, they are very accommodating about making adjustments to existing offerings where they can. Oh, and fabulous cocktails and wine menu too.
