Our party had the bruschetta, steak, chicken, spinach pasta, and carpaccio. For dessert, we had the tiramisu, PB+C and cheesecake. Literally everything was delicious and our server, Adelaide and the chef were lovely.More infoFYR Short NorthPrice: Moderate• Unspecified• Columbus•4.5

- SStasiaColumbus •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoMy sister and I had an absolutely fabulous first experience at Marcella’s! Our server, Julia, was amazing and very accommodating. She was so friendly and gave some amazing recommendations. I had the salmon, but I wanted to substitute the sauce for a white sauce that they didn’t have on the menu. Julia spoke to the chef and the manager and they were able to create a wonderful sauce that exceeded my expectations. It was amazing and exactly what I wanted! That dish is genuinely one of the best meals I’ve ever had and I am so thankful for the team going above and beyond to provide me with excellent service. After our meal, my sister and I had the chocolate almond cake, which blew my mind. Julia said that was her favorite and she was absolutely right because it was delicious! I couldn’t ask for a better dining experience! I heavily recommend this restaurant.More infoMarcella's - Short NorthPrice: Moderate• Italian• Short North - Arena District•4.7
