Trattoria Marcella

One of the hidden gems in south city. Excellent food at a reasonable price and superb service. The excellence of fresh hand made food is obvious and appreciated.

Service was excellent. The menu is varied and off menu dishes are available. The carpacio was excellent and the lobster risotto quite good. Bar selection is pretty good also.

Absolutely love going here! The Toasted Raviolis are incredible as well as the daily house specials. When going, ask for Mike as your server! He's always on top of things and you can tell that he loves his job. The music can be a bit loud sometimes, but other than that, no complaints. Time for waiting for appetizers is about 10 minutes and your main course is about 20! Overall they do a wonderful job on everything. Recommend going!

Planned our entire day around coming here with our kids for dinner. Arrived around 545 pm during a light drizzle. Despite the patio being fully covered-- walls included-- we were told that we could not sit on the patio, we could not sit at the bar, and that no tables would be available either. We had two starving kiddos with us who were told we were "going to get pizza" after spending two energetic hours at Rock & Jump down the road. Needless to say, everyone was extremely disappointed and upset when we couldn't even be let inside-- for seemingly no reason. The entire patio was 100% empty, and when I asked about seating, I was told that: "there are a couple of spots in the roof that have small holes, so it is not convenient for our staff to serve the patio." Again, it was barely drizzling; not a heavy down-pour by any means. The entire experience ruined the night for our family and 100% threw a wrench into our plans. We had to feverishly search for something nearby that served pizza for the kids (since they were already dead-set on eating pizza-- if you have kids, I'm sure you know what I am talking about.) All in all, it was a highly stressful and unfavorable situation. Unsure I'd even give it another shot based off of the first experience and the lack of care from the staff.

Food was superb and the service was outstanding, highly recommend

Great Italian food!
