We dined at Prime Mediterranean on Monday 1/5/25 for my wife's 75th birthday. It was a disappointing experience. The house wine was good with a generous pour. Our waitress seemed disinterested and not friendly; didn't even check on refilling our water. The croutons on the Cesar salad were very rancid, there was no bread to the table, something I would expect for the price, it was not busy, but the entrees took 25 minutes, we were quoted $33 (twice) for the crab cakes (market price), but billed $44. I had the copino (OK, but thin, and the fish tasted a little funny; I had diarrhea the next morning. We keep our sailboat nearby, but will not return. It was a Monday after New Years, so maybe an off night?

STOP-Do not waste your time or money! Planned on having a special birthday/holiday celebration dinner with friends but experienced the most disappointing dining experience ever. Service was inexcusable given the medium sized crowd – from the time our party of four was seated at 6:30PM, it took 15 minutes before water was poured, another 15 minutes before drink orders were taken and another 20 minutes before they were delivered. Ten minutes later at 7:30, we finally sought our waiter to request appetizers - these then took over 20 minutes to arrive. At that time, we ordered entrees from a menu that was severely limited compared to prior advertised offerings (more disappointment). The drink and cocktail menus however, were three times longer than the food offerings. Dinner finally arrived at around 8:30PM and was lukewarm with taste that was average at best. By this time, our appetites had waned. We each ate about one-half of our entree and requested boxes to go (Way too expensive to leave anything at almost $100 pp). No dessert, coffee or after dinner drinks to celebrate a special evening. (It might have been midnight before we would have been served.) We were never asked about the quality of our dinner or dining experience, and the staff seemed more interested in talking to each other at the bar than serving customers. The disastrous evening did not end there as both my wife and I experienced intestinal issues once we were home. This may have been an unusual occurrence, but one we wish to forget.

I can’t overstate how special this restaurant is. We met dear friends here last night before the Urbanna Christmas Parade and were blown away by the entire dining experience. Walking in, there was a warm fire, stylish holiday decor, and a small crowd for an early 5 o’clock seating. Our server was friendly and extremely knowledgeable of the menu, making thoughtful recommendations and delicious smoked Old Fashioneds at our table. We started with local oysters “Greekefeller” topped with spinach and house made tapenade…they were ridiculously fresh, creamy, and flavorful. The creative menu offers something for everyone and our table had shrimp piccata, beet salad, house made spanakopita, and duck ragout. Food presentation, service, and wine selections did not disappoint. The chefs at Prime Mediterranean create a gourmet experience where one is needed; we so appreciate it 30 minutes home.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. I had the filet and my husband had the New York strip. Both were excellent and cooked to perfection. Our server was friendly, personable and knowledgeable about the menu. She was very attentive, checking on us several times during our meal. The restaurant itself was very nice. The decor and artwork are modern and interesting and the large fireplace was warm and cozy. Sometimes modern and cozy is hard to pull off but this placed nailed it. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and look forward to returning.

Impeccable service and presentation. I was excited to try the cioppino. Unfortunately, it was disappointing in flavor and quality of ingredients. The halibut, in particular, had a very off-putting aroma and taste. The other seafood items were mediocre at best. The meatballs were tender and flavorful. I genuinely enjoyed those.

My husband and I went here for our anniversary dinner and it was excellent all around! The staff was professional and attentive, all our food was delicious and it was obvious the chef took extra care in preparing it, and the atmosphere was classy and moody. Definitely a special occasion restaurant, and we'll be back next time we want a special dinner out!
We really like this place and try to visit each time we come to town. The service is friendly, and Chef Heather does not disappoint! Every single dish we've had has been visually stunning and quite delicious. If you haven't given this restaurant a try yet, you're missing out on a wonderful experience.

Really enjoyed the evening in an old school nice restaurant. Meaning I'm definitely old and it reminded me of when I was in school and my parents took me to a nice place. Without all the fidgeting and head knocking. I mean with the feeling fancy and enjoying a treat.
The interior is darkly stylish and the waitress was attentive - most of the time. Well most of the time. We were abandoned in the second half of the show but by then we had our wine and it was on her.
We started out with the House Dips. It was a bunch of pita triangles with a couple different dips. One was a pepper hummas and the other a smoked fish. Both were very good.
Then I had a cup of potato soup. I'm a sucker for it. It was delicious but I should have had a pass with the dips. It was likely too much.
I finished off with the special which was basically a deconstructed shrimp & lobster ravioli. It was incredible.
That and a nice bottle of red made for an incredible dinner and I can't wait to return to try more of the menu.
