Loved the food, service, location, and atmosphere. If you are in the neighborhood definitely go. If you aren’t def worth going for a special occasion!
Food is always excellent. Joe our server was great. It is out favorite place
Great service & Fabulous food every time!!
Finally got my husband to agree to go out for in door dining. Food was amazing as usual- Grouper and Lasagna entrees were both fabulous along with fried raviolis and Brussels doorstep salad.
Start with Toasted Ravioli. The lobster/shrimp risotto was fantastic as well as the Grouper special.
Exceptional food and service!! The ambiance is so cozy and comfortable too. They have, hands down, the very best homemade toasted ravioli of any restaurant out there!!! Highly recommend dining there!
Food was great. Service was attentive. If we need a special night it is here. They do a great job.
Wait time was long, but worth it! Service was fast and excellent! Can't wait to go back
Wonderful service and amazing food! One of my go to restaurants for a yummy dinner! Even during Covid, the experience did not disappoint!
We enjoyed a wonderful meal with excellent service.
Great time with my wife, son, and daughter in law. The restaurant did a nice job with social distancing and wearing masks. Our server, Alexa, was outstanding. We all ordered different meals and everyone love their food. We started with the toasted raviolis. We also tried the veal Marsala, lasagna, spedini, and chicken risotto. Everything was excellent. Please help local restaurants and dine here. You won’t regret it.
Great service, excellent food unfortunately we were seated next to the window on a cold night and were pretty uncomfortable.
As usual the food was amazing and our server Darrell was very attentive. We will be back!
Amazing again! Love the food, drinks and service every time.
Our waiter was fabulous. The food was delicious!!!
Warm and accommodating service, hearty portions and menu variety, pride in the cooking and presentation shine through. Cant wait until next visit.
It’s always phenomenal...food, service and ambience. I feel bad that they have to hang plastic between tables, but hopefully that’s behind us by the fall. Trattoria Marcella should be a staple for everyone who likes great food and courteous service...and as a bonus, you’re supporting a great family.
Side note - the calamari is fantastic!
So happy to have found the mussels as a special! My favorite dish there and have missed it!
wait staff very attentive - not disruptive / fritto misto was fabulous
Trattoria Marcella never disappoints! The lobster risotto is the best! Love their cocktails, appetizers, & desserts as well. Great place. We will definitely be back!
We love this place! The atmosphere and food never disappoint.
Food was great as always! Server was awesome too! They need to figure out how to keep the cold air from rushing in when both doors are open.
We never got our salad we ordered, we sat in the corner, and the dessert was partially frozen. Otherwise the food was good, and we were allowed to stay for a long time without being bothered to enjoy our liter of wine :-)
They seated us in the back, so it was more quiet than up front, which was good. The restaurant was packed, which was good to see. We had not been there in years and it was just as good as we remembered. I had the fish special (King Clip) and my husband had the lobster risotto, their daily off-the-menu specialty. He thought it was good but more tomato flavor than he recalled. We also had the calamari/fried spinach appetizer that we have had in the past. Menu seemed more limited than we recall, probably due to Covid.
Love it there.. asked waiter to turn up heat and that was better.. we were in the middle of the room and noisy. But ... food great service great👍🏻... will be back
Wonderful meal, excellent services, and charming ambiance.
Great service, atmosphere, and food. Always happy with Trattoria.
Food was amazing and the service was great. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
Our food was Luke warm and lacked flavor (except for the cannelloni 2 people got). Salad was way overdressed.
Apps were good
This menu is getting WAY to similar to Mia Sorello.
It used to be ‘the reservation’ to be able to get.
Go back to your roots please
Excellent as always. Joe is great waiter.
Try the calamari. It was excellent!
The wait staff and food are excellent. Not so much for the host staff. We had reservations at 6:30 and but were not seated until 7:30. Host staff never kept us informed, but continued to seat other parties of the same size who never waited for their table. However, I do love the restaurant and believe the food and value are excellent.
Wonderful food, cooked just right. Special flavors. High value relative to price. Wine list for all price ranges.
Always great food.
Loved trattoria Marcella!! Food was so delicious and service was amazing!
True Italian cuisine at its flavorful best--that's Trattoria Marcella. Perfect portions, unbelievably tasty, all served by very professional and very pleasant staff. One couldn't find a better dining option--safely and beautifully provided.
One of my very favorite restaurants and I took a friend there for her very first time. What a disappointment to have a server that we felt was so condescending to us. He really dropped the ball especially towards the end when I wanted to order a cappuccino. He was waiting on everyone but us. I asked several people that walk by if I could get one and they said I had to wait for him. Then when we asked to split our bill he literally smirked. Started laughing at us and we could hear it under his mask. It was like he was being rude to us and we felt it. I do not understand why he was acting that way… I am a regular customer and was embarrassed to take someone to a place that I felt was one of my favorite and be treated in this manner. Service has always been perfect… Sure hope it hasn’t changed. The attitude of a server makes the whole difference and he made a damper on the evening.
We always have a great meal and evening at Trattoria Marcella and Friday was no different. Deeeelish.
Our reservations were at 5:15 and we got seated immediately which helps because it got very busy around 6 PM. The food was outstanding. I don’t know if it was because of Covid but the tables were barren. That’s the only reason I marked the ambience as three stars
We loved our meal. It was delicious, the service was outstanding.
