This was some truly unexpected great Italian food. The escargot was out of this world. Our friend who had never tried escargot before was over the moon for it and is an official convert. However, the top floor was absolutely freezing!!! Dinner was great but we were all shivering the entire time.

Delicious food, perfect, portions, and reasonably priced. We got the charcuterie platter as an appetizer and the lunch portion of the Marcelo’s Special and Saltimbocca.

The food is amazing! We had the Sicilian Ball (risotto ball stuffed with house-made bolognese and mozzarella and fried) for our appetizer. I ordered a wedding cake martini (it was strong) and the lobster risotto, and my husband ordered the Mirabella’s Special Pasta (four cheese ravioli). We loved it all and have been back several times. Highly recommend.

Wonderful experience! Our first time here and won’t be our last. It’s both relaxed enough for families, yet classy enough for a nice date night meal. The food was wonderful and very generous portions. I had one of the specialty cocktails based on our server’s recommendation and it was perfect. We started with a salad that was plenty large enough to share for 2. For entrees, we also had the chicken saltbocca - rich and creamy sauce and tender stuffed ravioli, and the salmon special; which was so much more than salmon - truly a seafood extravaganza with mussels, salmon, shrimp, spicy Italian sausage (yes I know, not seafood but complements the dish so well!) and more.

Excellent food and service. With six of us on a Friday night we were concerned about getting seated promptly but the manager made sure we were taken care of. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The side salads were generous enough to split. I included pictures of the ravioli and lemon cutlet which were both outstanding. The only negative was that a party of eight was right next to us and occasionally was loud.

I’ve dined in, I’ve taken out, this place is quality! Great service, fantastic cooking. I had this plate a week ago and I dream of it. I finished the entire thing. I will also recommend the Chicken Alfredo. :) Expo, I’m talkin to you —please don’t let the food cool off too much. Honestly, as a guest I’d rather have someone’s meal be served first if it means it won’t be sitting and getting cold while waiting to be run with the whole table’s food. I’m also going to acknowledge that you all obviously know what you’re doing, so take this with a grain of salt—this is just based off of receiving lukewarm pasta a couple times.
