Mediterra Restaurant & Taverna

Food was ok, but the owner or one of the staff chased us in the street for not giving them enough tip and was very rude. Will not go back.

The atmosphere and waitress was very good but the food is yet to be desired . Sauces were watery and did not taste good the food tastes like they are trying to cook

The tables outdoor around the utensil organizer are nightmare! Totally ruined the atmosphere since the utensils organizer and the lady arranging the utensils are always super disturbing and noisy. She throws plates into it and onto the table and throws utensils onto the plate. There was a gentle literally took the empty table behind us to organize a whole table of glasses?!! How can I enjoy my time with such a disturbing environment?

I've given Mediterra 5 Stars in previous reviews. I love this place for special occasions. This was our first lunch experience. We shared tapas, salmon and another fish. Both were great. Our waitress disappeared for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. It was not busy, maybe over half full by the time she took our entree orders. She barely asked about our food and walked away before hearing an answer. The entrees where okay. The Pastaless Lasagna was fair. The sauce was tasty but the presentation was barely palatable with a few slices of skin on eggplant and one glob or mozzarella. The steak and frites was tasty but a small portion. The Merguez Bowl had three small links of lamb sausage and a lot of couscous with a few over cooked chunks of zucchini and very little feta. The highlight was the Market Bowl that was a good mix of veggies and rice. If I hadn't had such great meals in the past, I'd say to nix this place. I hope this wasn't an indication that their lunch staff is just not interested in making guests happy.

Our server took my meal and gave it another patron after realizing she had mixed them up. I saw another server pick up a plate and bring it to me after it was sitting at her place setting. Thats gross. She tried to tell me it was fresh but I saw it all transpire. We have been here a few times and were always very happy.

We dined today and it was a perfect autumnal experience at Mediterra. The attentive service and setting made for a memorable fall luncheon. Wine paired with your cheese board and every course was delicious and beautifully plated. Thanks for making it so special.

Nice atmosphere, server cordial and attentive. Food was good and flavorful

In town for a work meeting. Colleagues recommended Mediterra. It was really good. Atmosphere was great. I can see on a nice Friday or Saturday being a great location to walk around and grab a bite to eat. Plenty of seating. Servers were great. Always checking on our party of 10. Appetizers were great. Cheese with honey was amazing. Local Chicken dish fresh and juicy. I’d recommend!

We went to celebrate our anniversary. Our wait staff Krystyna was pleasant and helpful. Our personal favorite were the Papas Bravas, Pastaless Lasagna and Paella. The Red Sangria went very well with the Paella. Loved both entrees so much, will be back.

We haven't been there for a while (5 years) as we haven't been overly impressed in the past. This time though, with a new menu, it was a really great experience. We had the spinach spaghetti and the Nordic salmon, both dishes were fantastic and unique you don't get everywhere. As a starter we had the salmon tartar and hamachi which was outstanding too. Waitress was super attentive and very polite despite a crowded restaurant.

My brother and I and our partners met here for a mini- family reunion dinner with my mother who still lives in Princeton where I grew up. Mediterra offered something for everyone. The calamari and Jersey green salad appetisers were simple and delicious, very shareable, and the branzino and spinach and shrimp pasta entrees were lovely. We finished by sharing the peach crumble and flourless chocolate cake- gorgeous! Service was quick but not rushed, which worked well for our timing - my brother and I needed to catch our respective flights back to LA and London shortly afterwards!

Guys, don’t dine in here. This is a restaurant WITH NO INTEGRITY?
We dined there on 8/31 for lunch and left a tip of 19.27 (not with cash, but with credit card). However, a few days later when we checked with the bank, we noticed that the tip amount has been FALSIFIED to 25.00.
This behavior is UNACCEPTABLE AND OUTRAGEOUS ??
Our waitress that day is Marissa. We don’t know if it is she or someone else who falsified our handwriting. If the waitress was not happy with the tip we gave, she can just tell us at the very moment! But no she didn’t. Instead, she chose to sneak and falsify?
We wonder if this is their first time to falsify their customers’ tip, or of they’ve been doing this from time to time!

First of all we came here for mediterranean food bowls that are on the menu, They never tell you that it’s only for lunch. We had two dishes that were tasteless and barely seasoned. The portion was not good compared to the price. They didn’t even have bread on the table before our appetizer.
