We loved our visit to Marcella. The initial vibe was odd in that we were left standing in front of the hostess who was playing about with another staff member but once we were acknowledged & seated, our waiter was awesome & the food overall great. We have to give the burrata salad an 11/10. It was to die for. We were split about the bolognaise - my partner's was quite watery but mine was great! Super ambience!View more

Best restaurant experience I've ever had in Montreal. 5/5 food, 5/5 ambiance, 6/5 service. Sandy & Frederick (& the rest of the staff) took great care of us & great joy in what they do. The food was ON POINT. Eggplant & burrata starters crushed it (especially when combined). The pastas were tremendous . Try the beignets for dessert. & if you like cocktails, be sure to ask sandy to make make you a Last Word. My favorite part about dinette marcella: it's all totally genuine. Don't miss out on this gem in old MontrealView more

The food was very good until the desserts came in... both the tiramisu & the cannoli were defiled with chocolate pépites, both desserts were a disappointment. When we told the server, she said she would tell the kitchen, but her body language said'I could not care less'. Good experience overall, but would not return.View more

We had Maxime R. As our server, went with partner & family. My family was somewhat demanding & Maxime was nothing short than a godsend. Really appreciated him being accommodating & professional. He took excellent care of us. Marcella is 💯 one of the best places in the old portView more

Ambiance & service incroyable. Jolis Cocktails. Polpettes & bruschetta en entrée délicieuses, par contre un regret, ne pas avoir pris un plat principal sur le menu. Nous avons opté pour les pâtes du jour (ravioli farci au boeuf braisé sauce porcini) qui n'étaient pas à la hauteur de nos attentes... Si nous retournons nous opterons pour des valeurs sûres.View more
