Ristorante Mediterraneo In Gaeta

Super fresh fish, excellent value, friendly and helpful staff. The pasta with potatoes, provola, and mussels is sublime. Highly recommended, also for its harborfront location.

We were at this restaurant in Gaeta a few days ago. It's a lovely location because the outdoor tables are practically on the Gulf pier, even though there's constant traffic on the other side. Delicious food: sautéed mussels and clams, baby octopus and calamari appetizer, tagliolini with calamari, lemon, and clams, fried calamari and cod, rice with cod, beans, and escarole, pasta and potatoes... all exceptional. Unfortunately, once we got to the table, it took a truly biblical amount of time to be served, and I couldn't figure out why. Everyone around us had finished while our first courses were still waiting. Prices: a liter of wine, four first courses, a second course, two appetizers, and two liqueurs for €40 per person.

An excellent experience at Ristorante Mediterraneo in Gaeta. The fish is incredibly fresh, cooked with great simplicity and respect for the ingredients. The pasta with potatoes, provola cheese, and mussels is a must-try: truly exceptional, one of the best dishes. What I really appreciated was the spoken menu, with daily recommendations based on the catch available. This choice makes the experience more authentic and confirms the restaurant's attention to the freshness of the ingredients. The atmosphere is authentic, the service friendly, and the seafood cuisine top-notch. Highly recommended for those seeking the authentic flavors of Gaeta.

We went to this restaurant today, recommended by friends, and we were pleasantly surprised: the wait staff was extremely friendly and helpful, and the seating we were given (reservation required) was perfect. We ordered two starters: Pasta with potatoes, provola cheese, and mussels, which was truly delicious and well-prepared. The portions were well-proportioned, and the ingredients blended perfectly. The spaghetti with clams, lemon, and calamari were truly delicious, with just the right amount of citrus, so as not to be overpowering but still bring out the citrus flavor. For our main course, we were served a very fresh sea bass, deboned by them, accompanied by truly excellent baked potatoes. To finish, we ordered their house dessert, made with amaretti biscuits, and a caprese salad. The owner was very kind and offered us coffee and liqueurs. Highly recommended, 10/10
