    I recently took an older friend to Mediterraneo to celebrate his birthday, and it turned out to be a real treat for both of us. He doesn’t get out much, so he was thrilled—and when he mentioned it was his birthday, the hostess couldn’t have been more gracious or enthusiastic in sharing his excitement. The food, as always, was excellent. I stuck with my go-to lasagna, while my friend chose the seafood pasta. That night, he made the better call. My lasagna was rich and satisfying, but a bit heavy for a 95-degree evening. His dish was lighter and more seasonally appropriate. We wrapped up with dessert—complete with a candle and a birthday serenade that felt warm and genuine, never over-the-top or cheesy. The staff even brought over a couple of glasses of Limoncello to toast the occasion, a lovely touch that made the night feel truly special.

    One of our favorite restaurants! Not only is the food amazing but the hostess is the best ever (making us feel at home and even giving us a taste of their amazing tiramisu)! Can’t wait to come back! Thank you always!
