    Tremendous Brooklyn thin crust pizza. Others had chicken parmigiana and gluten free fig pizza. Terrific waitress. Our first time, definitely not our last.

    Where to begin? I think with the rose-infused and red sangrias, since they kicked off the meal. They were both beyond wonderful. Next, the stracciatella and bruschetta - divine. The chicken a la Marcello (I think that's what it was called) was so good I barely took a breath between bites. My husband got the frutti di mare and was thrilled, although next time, he's going to venture into scary ground and get the spicy sauce instead of the safer scampi. Finally, the service. Sublime. We loved our server (I can't remember her name, but she was GREAT) and the lovely gentleman who dropped the food at our table; both were lovely. Can't wait to return; it's a verified Bordentwown Gem, IMO!

    We like Marcellos generally and food is typically good. This time the waiter spilled and entire glass of water on me and I was soaked. Expected some sort of apology in the form of a free dessert or drink but nothing. Disappointing. The chicken parmigiana was just okay.

    Whenever we’ve dined here, my fiancée and I ALWAYS have food to bring home, she has TWO delicious cocktails while I enjoy multiple Shirley temples, and the service we receive is consistently exemplary. Marcello’s is a restaurant that doesn’t make you take out a loan to enjoy finer tasting food. We always get 2 appetizers w/ an entree + 2 cocktails and desert…. We also never finish our plates and have not had a bill exceed $90. Marcello’s is forever a favorite of mine.

    So pleasantly surprised by this local restaurant!! Food was fresh & delicious. Delicious white clam pie ! Good basic Italian American entrees. We were put near the bar so the noise level was high. I recommend asking for a table away from the bar if you want to converse. Will definitely be returning!
