    It was a Sunday after Christmas and we weren’t certain how busy but it was packed by the time we finished dinner (approximately after 7:30). We weren’t certain quickly seated when we arrived. We both started with drinks. My Manhattan was tasty but in a fairly small rock glass for $15 and my wife had a NA Spritz that was $13 in long stem glass with lots of ice (seemed a bit pricey). We both had a bowl of gazpacho which was large and was very tasty. It’s was delightful. My wife had the salmon special which was delicious and came with shishito peppers . I had their Cameron tapas shrimp which were also extremely delicious. We finished with tres leches which was flavorful and has a great texture.

    Marcella’s was great and our wonderful server made it so. We were celebrating my daughter choosing a wedding dress and this was the right choice. My daughter-in-law is gluten free and our server went the extra mile to guide her through the menu. She was also very knowledgeable about wine and so helpful with our choices. She helped make it a great evening!

    Have been wanting to come try and decided to come for Christmas Eve dinner. The coc au vin was excellent! I’ve been throughout France several times and it immediately took me back from the first bite. My son stated his linguine and lobster was very good as well. Chapeau to the chef and staff. Definitely will pop back in again soon.
