    The Paella Clasica (for two or more)
    Sean C.

    Never a bad experience when dining here. Staff was attentive and very helpful. I ordered the paella and everything was delicious. So much flavor and definitely can feed 2-3 easily. The establishment offers indoor and outdoor seating. Very clean and chill environment. Family and kid friendly and they also welcome Fur babys. Will definitely be coming back whenever I'm In town.

    Salmon ceviche was amazing!

    Visited here twice in the past 6 months and loved it. They do get very crowded so be sure to make reservations. Service was friendly and food was super good. Our table had the ceviche, stuffed mushrooms and ahi tuna to start and they were all so good. My husband and I shared the seafood paella which was like jambalaya and it was amazing and enough food considering we had the apps. We all had the affogato for dessert and really enjoyed those too! We'll likely come back in the area but I hope they do something about their bathrooms: they were so gross considering this is a pretty pricy place. Table of 4 with drinks and apps came to $400.

    Very little meat in pork dish. Sugary sweet balsamic glaze

    We sat outside on a beautiful summer night in front of the fountain and expected a delicious meal. The food was warm, boring, portions were extremely small. We left disappointed and hungry. I assume this is a popular spot in Princeton for visitors and no one expects an actual decent meal. It's more about the ambience and location. We told the manager that the $46 steak was bland, unsalted and had no sear. He was apologetic.

    Had a great time at Mediterranean for a conference dinner. We had the side room all to ourselves, which gave us the space and comfort we needed. The servers were very friendly and attentive. The wine and mocktails were kept flowing and everything was served at a great pace. All of the appetizers were really tasty. We had hummus, salads, a burrata with tomatoes, and a medley of chick peas, mushrooms, and I think sweet potatoes (this was may favorite). For the meal, I had the salmon which was excellent. It was cooked perfectly and I loved the mushrooms and sauce that came with it. For dessert, we had the chocolate cake and the fruit tart. The fruit tart was the winner in my eyes. Overall a great dinner with great company!

    Burratta

    The food was delicious! I ordered buratta and the no carbs pasta- so so good! Also a glass of champagne. The ambiance is good. The service did not match the level of excellence coming from the kitchen. Our waiter looked like she hated her job. Not personable- not smiling- not interested. That was disappointing. Giving a 3 just because of that.

    Visited while spending time with family on the East Coast. The service was amazing, and the pita with hummus appetizers were especially tasty. I enjoyed my salad but I wasn't a huge fan of the chicken, which mainly had a grilled taste without much seasoning. My family really enjoyed their meals, especially the steak. The restaurant is right in downtown Princeton such a charming town!

    The food was amazing, even tastes fresh. Service was moderate. It was lunch time so it got slightly busy. But overall I enjoyed my time there. A suggestion would be free bread for the table to start.

    Project hosted a dinner here, they did a very good job. The restaurant is beautiful. Stoneware place settings were unique, rich wood throughout, tables and dining room all created a comfortable atmosphere. Our server was no nonsense, professional, and ushered our disparate group into a cohesive dining experience. Hummus and papas bravas were nice starters. Menu is a patchwork of Mediterranean influences, featuring Spanish and Italian dishes. Service was spot-on, and we had a memorable meal.

    Paella
    Caroline D.

    Visiting Princeton and stopped at Mediterra. Our group shared the paella and it was enough for three people with leftovers. We enjoyed the hummus, which a unique taste. I believe tahini was mixed in. Service was perfect & waitress was pleasant.

    Margarita and chocolate almond croissant
    Kyrie B.

    Went for their Sunday brunch and I was pleased. The menu is a bit limited but the food overall is very good. Our waitress was fantastic and the service was very good. We ate outside so I can't speak for the indoor ambiance but the outside dinning area is great. Overall we had a good time and enjoyed our meals. I got the smoked salmon bowl, a margarita and shared the chocolate almond croissant. All very tasty!

    Paella Clasica
    Rainey C.

    We ordered the Salmon Tartare as an appetizer and the Paella for two. Both were delicious and the flavors were great! The Paella was lacking the crispy crunchy burnt rice bottom (soccarat) but the flavors were definitely there. We loved how generous they were with the portions, especially with the meats too. There's a few big mix of pork sausage, chicken, squid, scallop, and shrimp in the dish. The Salmon Tartare was great too, a nice light cold appetizer. Service was amazing, our waiter was the friendliest and sweetest. We came on a Friday night and every table was full, would definitely recommend getting a reservation before coming!

    Grilled Point Judith Calamari Yellow Fin Tuna Ceviche(I think)
    Lindsey M.

    I would rate Mediterra a 4.3/5. It's a great dinner place and a decent lunch place and has been dependable the last 3 times I've gone. The location is great and the indoor and outdoor seating options both have great ambiance. The staff are very friendly and professional. Certain dishes(ex. Papas frites, salmon, chicken) are spectacular and well portioned, while others(ex. Burrata salad, meatball brunch bowl, calamari) are skipable. The pastas are a hit or miss but never too extreme of a miss. A little more on the expensive side but nothing out of line from the rest of Nassau street. The food is pretty salty which isn't to my liking but otherwise flavorful and well executed. I love a nice dinner out at Mediterra and this is a great pick with the perfect amount of options. I love that they have a specials menu too.

    We went for the Valentine's Day prix-fixe menu. The appetizers were all delicious and my husband liked his food. I did not like my entree choice, but everything else was very good.

    Is this place Gluten free? Do they have gluten free options?

    They have plenty of GF options. I had the Pastaless Lasagna, for example, made with Aubergines and it was delicious!

I ordered the Grilled Chicken Wrap, which was excellent, packed with chicken and very filling. I ended up taking half home because it was both generous and delicious.
