Mediterraneo Restaurant — Restaurant in Higüey

The WORST gastronomic experience in Dominican Republic 🇩🇴

We recently visited the Mediterranean restaurant for dinner, we had high expectations as we have had gastronomic experiences in Cap Cana in other restaurants.

The service was friendly but very unprofessional, they didn’t have 2 of the wine options that we wanted to order, the sommelier recommended a wine because it was from a nearby region that the one they didn’t have, after trying to convince us that it was very similar to the one we wanted they brought the bottle which was not even tempered(white wine) after opening the bottle and tasting it I pointed that it had a very particular flavor of apple juice cider, the sommelier then asked if she could drink from our wine to taste it, we said ok a little bit confused… after tasting she said, honestly I didn’t try this wine before, it has just arrived last month and the owner doesn’t give us tasting, he is the one that chooses the wine. Then she came with a glass of apple juice so we can compare that it was just as drinking apple juice, we mentioned that the wine she suggested was not similar at all to what we wanted. No option was offered to change wine.

The food was completely average and not worth it at all for its price, prices would not include taxes, the red snapper that I ordered was about 100 grams, it came with no side dish just the small fish fillet.

We spent about $250 for 1 appetizer, 2 main dishes, and a very bad bottle of wine.

We were very disappointed at Eden Roc, we considered our experience a waste of...

I would replace the tables in the restaurants though, to my taste. They bring the elevated experience...

We enjoyed our experience dining at Mediterraneo. I highly recommend the cured salmon dish. I’ve only had better in Paris. Also the staff is excellent.
