This place was highly recommended and lived up to expectations. We loved the modern take on Israeli and regional food. I've never had grape leaves this tasty and prepared this way. The service was top notch, food came out quickly, considering the caliber. My relative who is used to standard diner fare loved her dish. Well worth a stop if in the area.

Our new favorite place. Every dish was delicious. Best grilled octopus we’ve had in a very long time. Highly recommend the roast duck orange and the Branzino w crispy skin were both exceptional. The service was 5 star, the ambiance cozy but light hearted. Great for dinner with friends or a date night dinner. For the selfish reason of not wanting the place to get too popular so as not to be able to get a reservation, it behooves me not to recommend it but I cannot do such a great restaurant a disservice. My wife and I and our friends highly recommend Medi Terra and we can’t wait to go back to try some of the other offerings.

Wonderful experience. We had a the biggest family meal for 4 and every entree was delicious and the portions were amazing. We wound up taking the last two entrees home as we could not eat anymore and actually these were even more delicious than the ones we did indulge in. Service was very amiable and helpful. The only negative and not a big one was that they tried to serve all the dishes in quick succession which made us fill rushed and the table was not large enough to accommodate all the platters. The waiter understood and slowed the process enough that we could enjoy the earlier entries(salad, dips, appetizers). The last entrees (an orzo seafood dish and a grilled meat platter) were superb … and we will enjoy our take home portions for a couple of dinners this week! Will highly recommend this restaurant.
