    One of our favorite restaurants! Not only is the food amazing but the hostess is the best ever (making us feel at home and even giving us a taste of their amazing tiramisu)! Can’t wait to come back! Thank you always!

    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.
