    It was nice although they said they no longer use OpenTable to reserve tables so luckily we were able to be seated without a real reservation

    The food was very good, I took a work group from out of town. We had been one time before. They loved it as much the second time as they did the first!

    The food was delicious. The service was quick and friendly. One concern was their wine bottles were quite expensive. The neighborhood is a great area that is still developing.

    Doug, Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to write a review. While we do carry high end wines, we do also offer carafes of Stemmari that would be an alternative. We hope to see you again soon!

    Had a great time! Ambiance is always something we like about Mercato; our server was kind and attentive, and the food and wine were delicious. Looking forward to regular visits, especially for their Monday dinner + wine deal!
