J.

December2021: food was stunning. Fresh and flavoursome. Drink.. Under cocktail : GinTonicMintice bout $15.00 😳 not even in a fancy glass.

N. K.

Great coffee, incredible food ,wide variety of Italian food merchandise ,highly professional & friendly staff..highly recommended

L. K.

We had coffee and two mains. Seafood pasta which offers fresh assorted seafood and buffalo mozzarella pizza. Thumbs up.

D. E.

Once again a great couple of pizzas and really good wine.. Love the interesting choices and they delivered on freshness and tastiness.

S. E.

Wonderful food, great selection of italian specialities including a lemon chello -chocolate- nougat which loved up to high expectations, went on a flash with my friends-will hopefully be able to drop in to try some of the other flavors. Pizza my husband had was inspirational. Felt very welcomed & when I asked about the menu, & products they sold the staff were both helpful & enthusiastic. Altogether exceeded my fairly high expectations - I had already been offered reccomendatons from several of my fellow foodie workmates.

H. T.

Great service, atmosphere and food, but would rather have had parmesan sprinkled on pumpkin ravioli, instead of sweet almond biscuit crumbs?

n. s.

Friendly staff, great food & service and open Monday nights, when every other cafe/ restaurant thinks people don't want to eat!

B. S.

Kapiti Coast residents are spoiled for choices when it comes to pizza retailers. Mediterranean Foods is one of the best, with great salads, wines and beer choices to complete the dining package.

S. M.

Excellent food. From starter to the dessert, the quality and taste of everything was outstanding. Service was delightful and very professional. Highly recommended.

B. H.

A few weeks ago we popped in for lunch at this establishment. My wife ordered a Margherita pizza with some salami and I ordered a Margherita with olives, but as a Calzone. The owner, I assume, took our order, verified it with us and put it through to the kitchen. The food came exactly as we expected, but tasted much better than we expected. Kudos to the owner and the kitchen staff. That was an extremely good pizza and calzone that I have had in a while. I would definitely recommend this place and we have made this a go to spot when we visit the Kapiti coast.

A. G.

Great place for a highway pitstop. I bought a buffalo margherita pizza. As seen by the poor image quality, I was only too excited to dig in. The wait staff didn't clarify the pizza name when delivering to the table, but otherwise... he rawe te kai - the food was great 👍🏽

V. A.

As always, lovely! And we haven't been for awhile. Great service and a delicious pizza with a glass of wine. I really appreciate that you can do half half pizzas here. My husband and I shared a pizza which was enough for the both of us, one half 'Napoli' and the other half 'Capricciosa'. Quality ingredients. Was perfect. Mille Grazie

J.

A fairly average meal of pizza - but nothing special. My friends had a variety of meals but felt similarly to me as far as their meals were concerned - ok but nothing exceptional.

P.

Delicious pizzas made from scratch, sandwiches and gelato. Great service and a good atmosphere. Recommended.

M.

Pizza as usual, possibly even better than usual with caramelised onion and guanciale, wow, and peasant style potato a real treat, worth going off the EWY, staff great too, and just a nice experience all round.

S.

Coffee hot and delicious. Aced the service! Food was delicious and is very reasonably priced. I'll definitely be back. Go there and check it out for yourself!

D.

Fantastic coffee, delicious food and great service. Always leave the deli section with more than I need too!

L. “. B. 7.

Polite staff, efficient service, limited menu but good variety of bottled stock from the Mediterranean region for purchase such as large gherkins, melanzana pomodori etc.

A. K.

Best pizza ever and garlic breads ... so fresh and tasty...🤗 Very friendly staff and manager ...

N. B.

Incredible food, the best pizza and pasta in Wellington. The owner is so attentive and the whole experience was 5 stars! Will definitely be back. My son wants to go back tomorrow already

K.

Good honest food.. Great coffee & desserts after being in Lockdown for so long...

J. H.

Nice place for lunch or dinner, had pizza with chilli oil and Caesar salad.

D. R.

Really enjoyed the Napoli pizza and and another in our group had the seafood spaghetti which had plenty of mussels, salmon and other ingredients. They don't scrimp on the toppings and food. Service was prompt and friendly. Will definitely be going again.

T.

Only have bar food eg chippies and nuts. Sorry do have mushrooms on toast - a nod to having food.

N. H.

Delicious food in the cafe and great range of it imported food stuffs on offer to purchase

S. A.

Every luncheon at The Mediterranean has been tasty, generous in size and at a reasonable cost. We have always ordered off the menu but the cabinet looks appetising selection too. Oh, and don't forget the gelati. I like the space between tables and I adore the staff. They are patient, helpful and friendly. Good parking too.

T.

Personal, attentive service. Good range of foods for restricted diets. Lovely setting. Fantastic food - everything perfectly seasoned and sized, tasty, fresh, beautifully presented. Costs fine for location. Very professional and stylish. Will look for opportunities to come again!

S. C.

Good food . Fresh rocket salad nice Pleasant staff

M.

Had T bone steak cooked to perfection medium rare on a bed of spinach. Side dish of some roast potatoes made my meal complete and tasty. My wifes healthy choice meal was also delicious she tells me. So there is something for everyone. Not the cheapest place I have ever eaten at but you have to pay for quality ingredients and great service. We will visit again with friends very soon. Well done guys

J. P.

Nice pizza, cool staff👍

R.

Exit Food and service Always very pleasurable to go to

D. C.

Excellent thin base traditional Italian pizza. Fresh tasting and light crust. Beer on tap. Friendly service. What more could you ask for? Oh, and a fantastic Deli and pantry shop. Really good prices!!!

C. P.

Best Caesar Salad around. Top that off with the Buffalo Margarita Pizza you have the perfect making of a date for 2. Can't forget about the excellent service the staff provide!

A.

Great place! The food is amazing! The shrimp pizza without shrimps but with olives instead amused the staff when I ordered it but man.....EASILY the best pizza ever! The gelato after tea was just so good. While waiting for our food we browsed through the stuff in the little shop. Nice place to meet, even our larger group of 10 people.

L.

Amazing food - perfectly balanced with spice and rich flavour, friendly personal service and the best macchiato I've had in a while. The experience made my day.

J. K.

Nice place, good food not huge portions, pricey.

L.

Nice atmosphere lovely food friendly staff

J. F.

I have eaten here occasionally over the last few years. It would be more if I lived here. The pizzas are fabulous as pizzas made by Italians should be. And the service is speedy and with helpful staff, especially when wanting recommendations for a glass of wine from the Italian wine selection.

C. S.

The service was great, but the meals - nothing wrong with them, but just okay. Will have to find another hot chocolate in Paraparaumu.

N. B.

Nice pizza and nice service. There was a young guy who was great.

A. N.

Went for lunch and selected a wood fired pizza. The pizzas on the menu were all very similiar and perhaps a wider variety could be considered. The staff were good and attentive. The pizza arrived in reasonable time and was very nice. Great convenient place with plenty of parking available. The place has a nice atmosphere and I would go again.

M. d. L.

This was possibly the best lunch Ive had in NZ. The food was amazing! Its a must try for anybody, and believe me, you can take the drive out there, it is more than worth it!

T. M.

Deli section smaller than in the past but still perfect for uniquely Italian and Mediterranean inspired spices, fresh pizza dough, and those special ingredients that raise your 'homemade ' pizzas to a higher level

T. A.

Nice atmosphere. Roomy without much noise. Pizzas very good. Lovely staff and great service. Nice to browse the shop while waiting.

A. H.

Amazing place, yummy pizzas and nice staff. I loved it and I'll definitely go again 👍

H. N. (.

Good pizza. The wait staff could be more attentive. Shared a pizza with my daughter, which came out a bit later than everyone else's and I had to find my own plate to put my slices on. They also gave the drinks to the wrong kids.

L. j.

We loved the food and dessert here! The staff are very friendly. The shop has a good variety.

S. J.

Best steak l have ever had ! Cooked to perfection and rest of meal lovely too. Good atmosphere , good service , spirits pricey though , would not buy alcohol again.

J. R.

Fantastic food, fantastic service

J. S.

This has to be one of the best places to go to on the Kapiti Coast when it comes to meeting friends over coffee or lunch. From the most relaxed atmosphere to the soft music the beautiful interior and friendly staff its a joy to be there. Hope to return many times.

E. L.

My boss and I always love visiting Paraparaumu, specifically because we can eat both lunch and dinner here while we work nearby. The staff are always friendly and the food is always amazing - if you're stuck for ideas, ask the owner for meal suggestions, she has an infectiously passionate personality when it comes to her food and wine - she will put you right!

J. M.

Great food , great staff, good prices

Superb range of simple but creative Italian fare. We had 4 small pizzas, shared between the 4 of us, bursting with flavour, classically seasoned with classic Italian herbs like fennel. Finished with lovely smooth gelato. Recommend

A. D.

AL Salmone (with extra chicken topping) was my favorite and the Ravioli is second best. Peroni beer to go along with the food is just perfect. Great service and price reasonable. Shop has some good Italian flavors and consumables.

Awesome service. It Was like I had been going there for years. Felt like family. Waitress spent time talking with my young child. Was really sweet.

M.

Our most favourite spot, relaxing mediterranean ambience and mouth watering food at a reasonable price. The Ravioli is made fresh and OMG tastes absolutely divine. You haven't eaten authentic Italian until you've eaten here , highly recommend for a special occasion or even for a quick bite.

D.

Always amazing quality food and -products. Best pizza in the wide area! Always excellent service from Reza and his staff. It's my go-to place for pizza and special food ingredients!

B. F.

Really tasty Italian food! Great service!

M. R.

On a rainy evening in the middle of winter there we were, my son and I, wondering what on earth in this case carpark surrounded by fast food places and closed shopping malls we could eat. And the answer is amazing food at this place. The food was too notch, full of amazing tastes and the ingredients were obviously all fresh. I had. Amovelt Tuatata (bit of course), and my son had some local fresh juice thingy. perfect. And thank you to the waiters and the cooksz brilliant service. So, there we go - in a carpark in a 'deserted" shopping g mall of a Friday night I had a most excellent meal.

P.

Best pizza in Kapiti!

R. R. (.

Having ridden several trails (e-bike) in the Kapiti region recently, I have always ended the day with a nice meal from here. Given that there are so many fast food options in Kapiti, it was nice to have a quite hot meal (Lasagne was great) and cap it off with Gelato for dessert. Would definitely visit again!

L. C.

Food was nice but not cheap. Service was friendly but a bit sporadic with our group waiting a long time for drinks and glasses.

Fantastic authentic Italian pizza, pasta & gelato. Light & bright, friendly attentive staff, great dinner experience. Plus open every day till 9pm👍

E.

(Translated) the shop is quite well stocked but very expensive. The restaurant is not the best I have been to. The pizzas are authentic, but they are not very good. High costs, but in line with those of an Italian restaurant in New Zealand. If you are Italian we can stay here every now and then to find Italy on the other side of the world (Original) il negozio è abbastanza fornito ma molto costoso. Il ristorante non è il migliore a cui io sia stata. Le pizze sono autentiche, ma non sono molto buone. Costi alti, ma in linea con quelli di un ristorante italiano in Nuova Zelanda. Se siete italiani ci può stare venire qui ogni tanto per ritrovare l'Italia anche dall'altra parte del mondo
