We came here with a party of four for dinner last night and three out of our of us were disappointed in the meals served. The only meal that was good was the Mussel Appetizer but even then some of the mussels were old and shouldn 't have been served. We started by ordering a full bottle of wine which the server never brought until after our meals were served as we had to remind her. It went downhill from there. The Penne Capricosa was served with enough marinara sauce to complete 4 entrees, with sauce going from brim to brim on the plate. Very overpowering but reasonable good flavor. The Chicken Maximo had the chicken and angel hair pasta literally swimming in a butter/wine sauce and we drained more than a half cup of liquid off the plate. Just looking at it being served, it was not appetizing at all. As with the Penne dish above, less would have been more. My Calabrese Panini had way overcooked chicken and I ordered it on homemade Focaccia, which after snacking on the rolls I was looking forward to. Instead it came on what appeared to be flat pizza dough, cooked with no color and no taste whatsoever. Needless to say we expressed our concerns to the waitress and she basically just shrugged her shoulders, said 'Enjoy ' and walked away never to be seen again until we flagged her down for the check. No asking about coffee, dessert etc, so we paid the bill and went to another establishment for coffee/dessert.

The food was delicious. Will become my go-to for pizza Service: Take out Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We live near the restaurants and support local businesses such as Mediterranean. we would dinate here even if we lived further away. great menu, indoor and outdoor area. good choice of wein and spirits. our waiting staff seems almost always to be students of mcdaniel college, and they are well spoken, polite and do a good work.
