T
he only difficulty you will encounter
when visiting this classic Italian eatery
on Main Street is deciding what to order.
The fabulous menu of northern Italian dishes
plated with modern flair will tempt you with
everything from delectable seafood to savory
pasta options and the finest brick-fired pizza in
town.
Mediterraneo first opened in 1996 and has
garnered a fiercely loyal following since that
time. In fact, you are likely to spot many regulars
at the bar, chatting up Bruno as he crafts his
popular Rustica pie and slides it into the blazing
oven. The Lasagne alla Bolognese is like none other
you have ever tasted—featuring layers of delicate
pasta and a creamy bechamel sauce. With all of
the incredible selections, it is hard to believe that
the best is yet to come…at the very end of your
meal. The heavenly Tiramisu is lovingly made
fresh from scratch every day in-house.
With a lively yet intimate atmosphere,
Mediterraneo's dining room or outdoor patio is
the ideal choice for a business lunch, friendly
drink or romantic date night. Reservations are
recommended.
