    We live in the neighborhood. The food is good but the service is always terrible. It was our anniversary which I had stated on the reservation. We never got our food and left. Very upsetting.

    I always love dining at Mediterraneo for the delicious food and low key vibe - it’s the perfect neighborhood restaurant. You can never go wrong with the pasta, I’ve never had one disappoint. And the service is AMAZING - you won’t find a kinder or more attentive group of humans in NYC. I highly recommend giving Mediterraneo a try - you won’t be disappointed.

    Went for dinner for the first time. We didn't get our "focaccia" and wine until after our main courses were served. The "focaccia" wasn't what we expected- it wasn't the fluffy raised kind but more of a flat cracker. The gnocchi were tender but the pieces were too big so that the centers were doughy. Unfortunately, there are so many italian restaurants in the area, we won't be returning.

    Amazing food. Vodka Penne and the Suga were stand outs. Even more amazing service by the owner. A gem.
