"we had several entrees, but also had 2 items from the easter brunch menu. the broccoli souffle was mediocre, the black bean soup was lukewarm, and the poached eggs with the hanger steak were cold. i have eaten at the med many times, this was my first time to be dissappointed. unfortunately, it was a special occasion(Easter), so it's to bad this was the time the food was not a hit."

"4 of us we went late on a saturday night. we had a reservation but went early hoping to be seated a little sooner and were accommodated. the tapas, wine and entrees were all extraordinary (a special shout-out to to the chicken piccata from someone who normally doesn't order chicken at restaurants). The service was outstanding."

"As usual, the most energetic (and loud) place in town, with good food. Happy hour is always a great bargain for the high-quality tapas and drinks. On a down note, even though I had a reservation for for 5:30 pm, we were not seated until about 6:10 pm. Favorite place for me and my graduate students."

"As always, the Med was great! It was a sunny day just after some late winter weather, and my friend and I were the only ones brave enough to sit out on the best patio in Boulder! It turned out to be beautiful, warm and the atmosphere takes you away to somewhere in the Mediterranean! The food was very good and the service was perfect!!"
