    Always great service, food and drinks. Love their steak and portobello mushroom flatbread and peach sangria. Our waiter was Doug. Such a nice charming guy. Doug has been our waiter before. He is always great. Never a bad meal. The best place.

    This is the 2nd time coming here. The food was great, we arrived a little early for our reservations and told them we would go to the bar for a drink they said the table was ready if we wanted to sit. Service was awesome, the food was great. We had appetizers- coconut shrimp to die for not greasy and the buffalo chicken egg rolls - awesome. To us time we opted for burgers - yummy! Thank you for a great dinner!

    We love coming here! Their mussels blanco are absolutely delicious! The rest of our meal was excellent, and Nicole our waitress was friendly and attentive. The heaters were turned on for the outside area without us having to ask. Perfect all around.

    The food and cocktails were good. The main issue was the service. We could barely hear our server (he spoke barely above a whisper). He took my spouse’s menu from her and started walking away without taking her order. It took about 15 minutes to be told they had to print more dessert menus. There was someone who appeared to be a manager (hard to tell because he had street clothes on) who asked how everything was while walking by. He didn’t actually stop to actually listen.

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us. While we’re glad you enjoyed the food and cocktails, we sincerely apologize that the service did not meet expectations. While we’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the food and cocktails, we are truly sorry to learn that the service fell short of your expectations. This is not reflective of the standard of hospitality we aim to uphold. The server in question is new to our team, and while we recognize that there is a learning curve, your experience clearly indicates the need for further guidance and support. We truly value your input and are committed to ensuring all guests feel welcomed and well cared for. We hope to provide you with a much better experience in the future. Thank you for your time.

    I tried to make 8-830 reservation’s and open table audit wasn’t available but 730 was. So I took the 730. Got to the restaurant and it was empty and didn’t get seated until 8. The service was good, the food was good. Coconut shrimp not greasy and they were huge. The buffalo egg rolls were good. We had steak and shrimp dish for dinner - they were equally good. The chocolate cake OMG this was great! Would we go back yes!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the food and service—especially the coconut shrimp, buffalo egg rolls, and that unforgettable chocolate cake! We also truly appreciate the heads-up regarding your reservation experience. We were hosting a private event that occupied our adjacent event space and patio until around 7 PM, which temporarily affected availability on OpenTable as well as our ability to reset and seat promptly. We sincerely apologize for the delay and any confusion it caused. Your understanding means a lot, and we're so glad to hear you'll be back. We look forward to welcoming you again soon!

    Our waitress was amazing and so kind, so thoughtful! I asked about a non-alcoholic drink and she was very accommodating and thoughtful about what type of drink to make. She was really attentive and just made my friend & I happy to be there

    Always dependably good. Mussels appetizer is the best around, and the bread is great! Everything I've eaten there has been excellent. It has gotten a little pricier over the years, but who hasn't? In summary, you can't go wrong with anything at Mercato's.
