The pasta was not bad, but the salad estiva was composed primarily of old and very bitter arugula that obliterated the other pricey ingredients. At $23.50, it is to be avoided and it downgraded the rest of the meal. For the two pastas that were picked up, they wanted to add $1.50 for a thimble full of parmesan cheese. After many many years, this was our last meal at this downward spiraling eatery.

Our experience began with the greeting upon entering Mediterraneo. We were warmly greeted and that greeting was simply genuine. It’s so nice when you feel like you’re being welcomed home!
The ambience was just right for our gathering of nine. All of the restaurant staff members were kind, attentive and professional. The owner, Melania, came to our table throughout the evening. She was an absolute delight! She shared some of her favorite delicacies with us which only enhanced our experience. Figuratively speaking, every single person at our table was drooling with delight over the appetizers, their entrées and dessert. The food was outstanding.
For me, this experience is one of those experiences that I will cherish. I felt like I was at a family gathering in someone’s home. If you don’t make a point to eat Mediterraneo, you are missing out on incredible food and a warm welcoming experience.

it's my favorite consistently good italian place... just wish i lived closer so i could go more often!
I stopped by once with a friend because I’m in the neighborhood and have been back repeatedly since! The hospitality is so warm and welcoming — I can’t tell if it’s actually the best pizza I’ve had in my life or if the vibe is just that good. Either way, 12/10. Very relaxed setting & great service. A gem 🥹

The worst pizza and ice tea in New York city.
We took a lunch on 11/10/2025. Never again.

As usual Mediterraneo delivered. The food is exceptional. I had the lasagna special and I loved it. The pasta which my wife had was equally good. The menu had something for everyone. This is a restaurant that we continue to go to . My granddaughters always ask to eat there as well
We had a lovely lunch here. The pastas were incredibly fresh and their homemade plum tomato sauce was absolutely amazing. Their iced tea is also made in house and it was fruity and delicious. I definitely look forward to dining here again!
We had a very nice time and the food was amazing as usual. They brought out some really nice pita bread with olive oil & fresh rosemary that was much appreciated, as well as the yummy tiramisu. Our group got everything from pasta to gnocci to salads & calamari - all equally wonderful. Thank you for the hospitality!

Service is very friendly! but the food is a miss unfortunately, ambience is alright. Overstimulating with all that’s going on that feels is impersonating multiple restaurants but not one specifically

We had such a great time! The owner was so sweet from the moment we arrived, welcoming us with such a lovely attitude and recommending the best drinks and dishes. We tried the tagliolini pesto e gamberetti, carpaccio, and pizza, everything was amazing. The food and attention were on another level, it honestly felt like home.

Absolutely delicious food! My friend and I were craving Italian and we found this amazing family-owned restaurant. One of the owners was very sweet and recommended to try the penne pesto e gamberetti, could not recommend it more! So flavorful! The restaurant is very cozy as well. If you are in the area do yourself a favor and try this gem.
