    Always a great experience at Marsilio’s Hands down my favorite place to take my family and have an incredible dinner. The food never disappoints. It’s simple and delicious. From the artichoke limone, grilled octopus, veal bergamo chicken parm with prosciutto and spinach to the tiramisu, tartufo and limoncello. Everything is always delicious. The place is always full of local friends and family.
