    Marc Vetri never disappoints. Every component of the menu was outstanding. The flavor combinations along with the wine pairings made this a delectable meal experience. The staff (Gina, Albany and chef Jake) were professional, friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. This was a true dining experience.

    Boyfriend and I went and split three dishes, which came recommended from a server. Onion soup, warm shrimp salad, and the steak frites. Everything was fantastic. We ordered our steak medium, and it came out very medium rare. Our server returned it, the manager came out and apologized. They returned with a corrected steak and more frites. Definitely recommend eating the frites with the steak in one bite. Good one their own but together- chef’s kiss! All of the food was incredible, and felt like we were back in Paris for an hour. Only critique would be for the bread to come warm to the table, or the butter to be softened so it could easily spread on the bread.

    Once again, Mediterra provided a superb dining experience. From the warm welcome upon our early arrival and attention to our seating preference to the quick and charming table service, they delivered. The menu was creative, two of us adventured into specials that we loved and one ordered a basic burger and fries that he declared the best he’d eaten anywhere. I will be back again with more friends.
