Great food, great drinks, great service. Please do not second guess, make a reservation now! Marcella's was absolutely amazing in every category!

Very pleasant & welcoming hostess, lively environment, & the food... Just absolutely delicious! I saw someone else talk about how good the Caesar salad was... They did not exaggerate. It was fantastic. The rice balls were great. Different from what I'm accustomed to, but so much better. I got the seafood pasta & my husband got the tortellini. Both were delicious. The tortellini was so fresh & easy to eat. The drinks were just as exceptional.

The martini was so different but so good! Excellently crafted! We're trying our best to not go back because we want to try other restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed everything! I MUST recognize the exceptional service of Megane. One of the best servers I've ever experienced. She was on top of everything.View more

Food was ok, however it took very long to come out. The service was average & basic. I had made a reservation in advance & I mentioned it was our anniversary however no mention of that in any moment we were there. Would not return.View more

What a fun place to have a great dinner! In addition to the yummy food & cocktails, loved the mid-70s soundtrack playing & the comfy bistro vibe. Things to note - cavatappi pesto, carbonara, meatballs, focaccia bread.View more

The food was good, service was prompt & the atmosphere was quaint. We enjoyed our meals, only thing I personally would have preferred was more meat entrees. I ordered the striploin & it was cooked perfectly.View more

Yum!! Wonderful, if you are looking for authentic rich Italian, this is the place to stop. In a beautiful room nestled in Old Port, this place is a vibe. It would be amazing for a date night. I had the tortellini alla ricotta & a beautiful glass of Chianti. It was great!View more

Italian food connoisseur here. The service was absolutely spectacular. The appetizers were amazing, some of the best I've ever had. The bruschetta, arancini, & salad were amazing. I loved the cheese watermelon & pecans in the salad - sounded a bit odd, but turned out to be one of the better salads. The pasta was nothing outstanding, but sufficed. The steak was for sure one of the best I've ever had, super tender & amazing sauce. The chicken milanese was amazing, nice & crispy. Overall fantastic restaurant, must try.View more

It was my first time, & I can tell you , by far the best Italian restaurant I've tried. I had the passion fruit spritz drink, Amazing. The Polpetta, it just melted in my mouth & the tomato sauce was made to perfection. Gnocchi DI Marcella was orgasmic for me. Honestly its a must do.View more

If you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, Marcella is the place to be! Whether you're in the mood for a classic pasta or something a little more adventurous, there's something on the menu for everyone.

A special shoutout to Olivier, the bartender! His cocktails are top-notch & he always knows how to craft the perfect drink based on your preferences. He's friendly, knowledgeable, & really elevates the experience.

Highly recommend Marcella for a night out with friends, family, or even a romantic dinner. Can't wait to return!View more

Dînette Marcella est l'endroit que je préfère au vieux port! La nourriture & les cocktails sont délicieux (spécifiquement les pâtes au pesto) mais surtout l'ambiance & les employés qui y travaillent! On se sent à la maison! Si vous avez la chance d'avoir Malo comme serveur, vous n'allez pas être déçu! Je recommande à tous d'y aller :)View more
