   I love this place so much. When I want good Italian food, this is where I go. I also recommend this place to anyone who asks for good Italian food. You will not be disappointed!

   My wife and I went to Marcello's for the first time to celebrate our anniversary. I made it a point to let the restaurant know that it was our anniversary when I booked the reservation. The restaurant is quaint (an old, renovated house), and although it is fairly small it is somewhat charming. We were warmly greeted by the bartender (who is also the manager as we found out during our conversation). He was upbeat and personable, and we enjoyed our experience at the bar while we were waiting for our table, with one exception. The elderly, female hostess not only did not greet us at all, but in fact, she talked about us to the bartender/manager in the third-person while we were sitting right there. The bar is quite small and it was extremely rude. She easily could/should have spoken to us directly, and with an actual smile and a friendly attitude. Our server was not particularly personable but he did an adequate job. At least he wasn't rude. The food was pretty good, although we found the portions to to relatively small for the price. The most disappointing aspect of the evening however was that, not only did they not bring out even a small dessert with a candle in it (like we saw coming out to other tables during our meal, for whatever their special occasion may have been), but no one ever even wished us happy anniversary. I'm logically assuming that the hostess was the one who received the reservation and either didn't even pay attention regarding the fact that it was our anniversary, or didn't care enough to make it a point to say something and/or pass it on. If we could do it over again, we would go elsewhere to celebrate what is, to us, the most special day of the year.

    Steven was very informative about our food and drinks picks. Food was delicious and the pink single lady drinks were amazing. Will definitely go back again.
