About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
Marcello Pizzeria e Ristorante is the best choice for an authentic Italian experience.

Chef Marcello Lombardo - INSPIRED BY FOOD AND DRIVEN BY A DREAM
Born in the City of Delights, or more commonly known as Palermo, Italy, Marcello fell in love with cooking from a very young age. Influenced by the crystal clear water, the flavours of the culturally rich air and a little encouragement from his mother, he went on to receive professional training from Milan and owned a restaurant on the Adriatic Sea. Now for over 20 years he's brought his joy of Southern Italian cooking to Vancouver. Marcello's is a neighbourhood gem on Commercial Drive in the heart of little Italy set for any occasion.

    They met their usual high standards Food arrived hot and beautifully prepared. It was very busy but our wait for our reserved table was short as they cleared and cleaned our spot.

    I was celebrating my friend birthday at Marcello. The receptionist told us the dessert is on the house. But we got charged at the end. I didn't realise we was charged for the dessert until I got back home and checked the receipt again. But the food is good, staff is friendly.

    The food was amazing and worth trying if you haven't been here yet, but I recommend going during off peak hours as there were many problems that occurred during our Father's Day dinner.

    The pizza here is great! We had an outdoor table so quiet setting. Service was very good, a little slower as we were sat furthest away but expected on such a busy evening. A lovely restaurant in a quieter area away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

    The pomodoro sauce was practically out of a can. Carbonara was good. Pizza was good. The entire restaurant smells of fish. The best thing was probably the cappuccino. Not authentic at all.

    Service was substandard. Waited a while to be greeted at tdd as blue. When server came she said “are you ready”. Not “Can I get you a drink”. We ordered drinks. Waited 10 minutes then server said they should be up in a minute. Came back 5 minutes later to take our order. Drinks not ready. All in all we were there 30 minutes before getting a drink. We ordered a salad to come before our entrees. After a long delay I bet my wife that the salad would come within 2 minutes of our entree. It was actually less than 1 minute. The server didn’t acknowledge this or apologize. (The Caesar salad was flavourless). After dinner we waited a while then server came by and asked if we wanted the bill. Not “would you like to see dessert menu” or “anything else”. Of course the lowest option for tip on the bill was 18%. 🙄. Really a poor experience.
