About the restaurant

Equal parts restaurant and experience, Mulberry Italian Ristorante is a wonderful option for those who want an authentically delicious meal. Explaining that it may look like the Bronx, but that it tastes like Manhattan, this cozy eatery is just south of the center of Buffalo and offers iconic Italian foods.

Visitors to Mulberry Italian Ristorante can enjoy their lunch or dinner menu items and will find that even some of the standards are far more creative than what they usually encounter. Freshness is also a huge part of the experience, and the caprese is hand crafted each day while the pasta is homemade on the premises. Delicious and comprehensive, the Mulberry Italian Ristorante menu is a delight.

We had a fabulous dinner. We were moved to a quieter table in the back room. Amy, our server, was absolutely fabulous and made our meal memorable. We will definitely be back.

We moved to Clarence Center almost a year ago and live just around the corner from Gertie’s. We’ve given it a try a few times in the past, but honestly, we were never too impressed—until now. Last night, we decided to give it one more shot after hearing about the new chef. We’re so glad we did. The food was absolutely exceptional—such a noticeable improvement from our previous visits. My husband had the pork chop, and I ordered the sea bass. Oh my goodness… both were incredible. We left genuinely excited, and we’ll definitely be back. Gertie’s is officially on our regular rotation now!

My watermelon salad was terrible. Looked like it had sat in the fridge for 2 days. Slimy watermelon on drenched arugula. My veg pasta was off too. The sausage was good but the stuffed ravioli was really bland and tasted like it was just popped out of the freezer. The waitress was lovely- and we got a refund on the salad / but they really need to up their food game.

My wife and I had a fantastic time. Our server Ruth made us feel very welcomed. My wife had the Seared Halibut and I had the Grilled Sea bream. Both dishes were fantastic. I would definitely go back.

Always enjoy going here! Not rushed and the service was excellent. Our bus boy kept us clean and watered!!! The lobster ravioli was delicious, my husbands end cut prime rib was well done and well worth the price! We also had the special bread and the waiter had the kitchen spilt it : half spinach and half sausage! My son’s steak was exactly what he liked and my daughter in laws meal was so good. A great place to spend dinner with family!!!
