About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem

In Italy, locals gather to their nearest market, or Mercato, to experience firsthand the variety, freshness and quality the local ingredients have to offer. The market allows for everyone to gather together, indulge and become part of a community.

Our owner Brian Bivona, his brother Executive Chef Matt and our entire team at Mercato aim to provide that experience here for our customers! Each dish is prepared to order and delicately created with the influence of American and Italian cuisine alike. From pastas and flatbreads to savory entrees and the unique Chef specials, we aim to offer an abundance of variety to our customers.

Our mission is to create an environment where everyone feels right at home!
at home because most importantly, we are a family!

So from our family to yours, WELCOME!

    I appreciate that they don’t rush you, everything took the perfect amount of time to come out. The cocktails are strong and tasty, fried calamari and fried mozzarella are crispy and delicious, and the spicy chicken francese was absolutely fantastic. I would definitely recommend trying out this restaurant

    Julie was an exceptional waitress, attentive and very knowledgeable. Outdoor dining was clean, food was paced and delicious, and bartender knew how to make very well blended drinks.

    Saw the waiter twice. I had to ask the hostess for the check. Never an option to order a second drink.

    Always great service, food and drinks. Love their steak and portobello mushroom flatbread and peach sangria. Our waiter was Doug. Such a nice charming guy. Doug has been our waiter before. He is always great. Never a bad meal. The best place.

    This is the 2nd time coming here. The food was great, we arrived a little early for our reservations and told them we would go to the bar for a drink they said the table was ready if we wanted to sit. Service was awesome, the food was great. We had appetizers- coconut shrimp to die for not greasy and the buffalo chicken egg rolls - awesome. To us time we opted for burgers - yummy! Thank you for a great dinner!

    The food and cocktails were good. The main issue was the service. We could barely hear our server (he spoke barely above a whisper). He took my spouse’s menu from her and started walking away without taking her order. It took about 15 minutes to be told they had to print more dessert menus. There was someone who appeared to be a manager (hard to tell because he had street clothes on) who asked how everything was while walking by. He didn’t actually stop to actually listen.

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us. While we’re glad you enjoyed the food and cocktails, we sincerely apologize that the service did not meet expectations. While we’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the food and cocktails, we are truly sorry to learn that the service fell short of your expectations. This is not reflective of the standard of hospitality we aim to uphold. The server in question is new to our team, and while we recognize that there is a learning curve, your experience clearly indicates the need for further guidance and support. We truly value your input and are committed to ensuring all guests feel welcomed and well cared for. We hope to provide you with a much better experience in the future. Thank you for your time.
