    Having walked past this restaurant for several years my wife and I finally tried it. A great experience. We’ve visited around the United States many similar Italian restaurants, and have always been happily pleased. Marcellino‘s did not disappoint. The food was excellent. As this was lent, my wife did not have any alcohol, but their wine selection appears very agreeable and the menu selections were very good. My veal and my wife’s mussels were excellent as were our salads.  sadly the octopus was a disappointment! We’ve had octopus in Greece and Spain, and in various restaurants in the United States. We’ve prepared it ourselves and know how difficult it can be. But tonight‘s was not up to par! Maybe the chef had an off night. It was either not steamed long enough and/or hot grilled long enough, and it was TOUGHER than leather. Beautiful presentation but undercooked. Nevertheless, I would certainly recommend this restaurant, and we will most likely be back! Service was very good

    I am a first generation Italian American with a mother who is an amazing cook. I travel a lot on business and have been fortunate to have eaten at some of the best restaurants across America. The food is authentic as it gets and the staff is on point. It’s a must visit

    Marcello’s is always excellent. I had the wild boar pasta and my wife had the spinach and ricotta ravioli in a cream sauce. She still has not tried the gnocchi’s because there is always something new that she wants to try. This is our go to date night restaurant and we love it every time. Service is excellent and the staff is always very friendly and accommodating.

    Don’t miss Marcellino’s … fabulous food; all the pastas and sauces are house-made daily. Creative cocktails, nice wine list, stellar service; live music on Thursday. It all adds up to a lovely culinary experience!
