This place was perfect! The only drawback was that we had a reservation and was seated 25 min later but it once seated it was fast and amazing the food was top tier and the bread was 10/10

Went for the first time to celebrate my birthday with family; it was a great experience! It was a table of firsts at Mercato…it did not disappoint; everything was delicious, service was excellent, so happy we decided to get dessert; the cheesecake was the best ever from a restaurant and the tiramisu was delish! Can’t wait to go back and excited to know Mercato could be our new “go to” close to home!

Food and service were excellent. Music is way too loud making it very difficult to carry on a conversation with anyone at the table. Felt like a nightclub not a restaurant.

We had a great meal. My husband had the Bronzino and I had the chicken parmigiana. Food was excellent. Our waiter Kyle was super friendly and helpful with questions about the menu. Restaurant was very busy & a little bit on the noisy side. Highly recommend.

We had the tomato & mozzarella, lasagna, rigatoni alla vodka, the NY strip and the chocolate cake. Everything was tasty and flavorful. Michelle Z was an excellent waitress. Attentive and friendly. We had a very nice evening.

It was our first time and it was so crowded and we were a table of three among big tables of parties. So loud we could barely talk. Also so dim that everyone we saw had to use their phones to look at the menu. We generally liked the food and the service was very good. We’d go back after the holidays at a quieter time.

Food and drinks were delicious. Music was extremely loud. It was very difficult to talk, had to keep shouting across the table to hear each other
