    First time at Mercato. We were celebrating birthdays. We were welcomed in by a charming young woman and seated immediately. As my Grand Daughter and I were the first to arrive I had a few moments to speak with our server. Coincidentally this morning I looked at reviews and found that a previous customer had mentioned Allana as their server. So when she told me her name, I knew we were in good hands! We ordered mostly from the apps, which were delicious. Everything from the kitchen was hot and tasty. We tried the drink of the day, again delightful. I will definitely suggest Mercato in Canton CT as a new trendy choice for an amazing lunch! We even had food to take home. Thank you Allana for making our time so enjoyable!

    Always perfection Except for one evening about three weeks ago, I was there with two other couples, and we couldn’t even hear ourselves talk because the music was so loud we asked the waitress if they could turn it down. She said she’d have to ask the manager, but didn’t know if she would be willing to do that. It sounded like they put it down just a little and then it went right back up. We could hardly hear ourselves talk.

    Though the service is usually good, the kitchen routinely changes ingredients and presentation of expensive entrees.
