    THE BEST YET!!!! The food is wonderful and this is definitely a neighborhood gem. Our server was absolutely lovely… I couldn’t decide between two pastas, so she offered to do two half portions. It was such a kind touch. Melania is the manager, I believe, and she was so considerate and helpful, and went above and beyond. When we were leaving, Melania asked me where I am delivering — I am 8.5 months pregnant — I told her Mount Sinai East and she proclaimed, ‘we deliver there, get her a menu!’ We will be back and maybe order in to the hospital when I give birth!!

    Convenient local spot. Salad special was good and grilled Brie was great. We had 3 different pastas and were fair and all left an oily aftertaste. Service good and cordial.

    Great, high quality food! The hostess/waitress was fantastic - authentic Italian and was so thoughtful! She made sure we had everything we needed and when a friend couldn’t decide between two dishes, she offered to give him half of each - so thoughtful!

    They have some of the best thin crust brick oven pizzas on the UESide! Always consistent and love their homemade delicious pastas -especially the duck ragu, and gnocchi, as well as risotto. Ask for the daily specials of ravioli, risotto, and main courses for fish. Great appetizers, including lots of a variety of options for salad starters, too. Done forget their homemade red sangria as well as dessert! Tiramisu, a warm spoke tarts, or gelato’s.

    We unexpectedly found this little gem on the east side. Food was delicious! We started with a salad topped with goat cheese and beets. Scrumptious! My husband ordered the Bronzino special. He all but licked the plate! I ordered the homemade pasta with porcini mushrooms. So, so good! My St. Tropez cocktail was quite tasty and the tiramisu was a delightful way to end the meal. We aren’t in NYC often, but we would definitely return and recommend Mediterraneano!

    I had a great dining experience! The food quality is top-notch—fresh and flavorful. The ambience is warm and inviting, perfect for any occasion. The standout, though, was the excellent customer service. Our server was not only attentive but also took the time to guide us through the menu, providing recommended appetizers and entrees that didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine in the city!
