Neighborhood gem

In Italy, locals gather to their nearest market, or Mercato, to experience firsthand the variety, freshness and quality the local ingredients have to offer. The market allows for everyone to gather together, indulge and become part of a community.

Our owner Brian Bivona, his brother Executive Chef Matt and our entire team at Mercato aim to provide that experience here for our customers! Each dish is prepared to order and delicately created with the influence of American and Italian cuisine alike. From pastas and flatbreads to savory entrees and the unique Chef specials, we aim to offer an abundance of variety to our customers.

Our mission is to create an environment where everyone feels right at home!
at home because most importantly, we are a family!

So from our family to yours, WELCOME!

Decent place. Located in a crazy busy shopping plaza & parking is very difficult. Brunch-the Croque Madam was over the top rich, swimming in bechamel. Way less would have been better but there was no coming back from it. Could not eat it & waiter wasnt around to send it back. Busboy cleared a barely touched plate, did not take it home. Creme Brulee pancakes were way too sweet. The brulee topping was way too much. Some fresh whipped cream would have helped the sweetness. Giant portion, would be a great dessert item to share. Probably a one & done for me.

Hi Elizabeth, we are so sorry to hear about your experience with us. We appreciate your detailed feedback as it helps us pinpoint any issues and address them immediately with our team. I have already brought these concerns to the attention of our Executive Chef and GM as this is by no means the standard with which we hold ourselves to. Chef is going to review the items mentioned with our kitchen team to ensure everything is being prepared to his expectations. Our team is instructed and expected to go above and beyond for our guests and it is unacceptable we failed to notice you were unhappy with your visit. We take pride in our food and service and while understand your experiencing was underwhelming we hope you will give us another chance to make it up to you. Thank you!

Good local spot. Friendly staff. Missed out on short ribs with a 6 o’clock reservation. They were already sold out. Pasta dishes are big.

Great food as always. I love mussels, and the ones at Mercato are my favorite, prepared with a garlic-tomato-saffron broth and served over a slice of their wonderful bread. This time we both had fish, and both my crab-encrusted halibot and my wife's Pesto Salmon were fresh and delicious. It can get a bit noisy on a saturday night, service can ge bogged down a little, and it has gotten a bit pricey (as most restaurants have), but all-in-all a great place for a quality meal.
