Opened by Michael Popovic since 2002, Mediterraneo has gained a reputation for its foods and services. Recently, it has won an Award for Excellence by Restaurant and Catering Association and becomes the 2006 Best Steak Restaurant of Victoria.

Mediterraneo’s charcoal grill cooking method enables most of the fat to drip away and provides a delicious, healthy meal with a distinct flavor imparted by the wood smoke. Not only the best ingredients are required but also the chefs’ attention to details is counted on to ensure the food quality and consistency.

High ceilings, light, rendered stone walls, colorful modernist impressions of a Spanish bullfight and the soft yet complex sounds of the flamenco guitar in the background inspire thoughts of a southern European holiday… The restaurant releases the carefree vibes of the Mediterranean in every way. From the cozy ambience of the bar and restaurant to the Al Fresco style of dining in the courtyard and the exclusive corporate function room upstairs, Mediterraneo is a delightful place to enjoy a meal.

Anyone who has lived in Europe will be familiar with the style of cooking and the relaxed atmosphere that the Mediterraneo has to offer. Famous guests who have chosen to dine at the Mediterraneo include world champion boxers Kostya Tszyu and Shannon Taylor, Mr. Olympia 3rd 'The real deal' Chris Cormier, artist Charles Bilic, Ferrari racing team, actor and television celebrity Sam Newman, Minister for the Arts Mary Delahunty, actress and writer Tara Moss, singer Tori Amos, singer Daryl Braithwaite, singer Sasa Matic and many others. Young and talented tenis player Bernard Tomic, junior ranking No. 3 in the world, loves our wagyu steak and named us his 'favorite restaurant'. Kevin Muscat, Archie Thompson and many other members of the Socceroos have also been to Mediterraneo and loved it.
