I saw someone else claim Mediterraneo as a "hidden gem" of Athenry in their review, and I couldn't agree more. We were only in town for two days, and I'm glad we chose Mediterraneo as one of our stops. Their pasta was SO good. I wish we could've stayed longer because they had so many enticing options to choose from. It wasn't too busy when we dined in, and our waitress was great. She checked in on us often, and we didn't have to wait long for anything. They're also very generous with their portion sizes, especially their ice cream. So don't skip out on dessert if you plan to dine in!

We enjoyed the food very much. Although the place is odd (a little dark, no music, and only two people serving), they were extremely friendly. Our order took approximately 30 to 40 minutes to arrive. We were just talking and having fun, so it wasn't a big deal, but if you come with a large group and are in a hurry, it might be an issue. We were very satisfied with the taste of the food, the amount of food (it was plentiful!) as well as the price-quality-quantity relationship. Definitely coming back!

I visited the restaurant the other day and had a great experience thanks to Zoe. From the moment I arrived, she was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. She made sure everything was taken care of throughout my visit and checked in regularly without being intrusive.
Zoe was knowledgeable about the menu, happy to answer questions, and provided excellent customer service with a positive attitude. Her professionalism and warm personality really stood out and made my dining experience even more enjoyable. I would definitely return to the restaurant and hope to be served by Zoe again.
