Pizza was very tasty and the staff were very friendly.
The pizza tasted great. There are plenty seats outside too.
Very much a food court cafe, even if it's the only restaurant in this particular area. As a quick bite during a study break, this place is fine; as anything else you can probably get better food most places. They have exactly one vegan pizza per day; the day I went was arugula and green peas, which is an odd combo.

Mercante offers an authentic and cozy atmosphere where customers can enjoy freshly made pizzas, like the Proscuitto, prepared right in front of them. The menu also features delicious treats such as the banana chocolate loaf. With great coffee and reasonable prices compared to other campus restaurants, Mercante provides a wonderful dining experience. The restaurant is also wheelchair accessible.
The pizza at Mercante has been praised for its excellent quality, with a delicious crust and flavorful toppings. Customers particularly enjoy the pesto pollo pizza and the cheese pizza, especially the pizza bianca, which has a strong cheese flavor and good bread. However, some customers have noticed a decrease in the portion size and toppings, such as arugula, on the pizzas over the past two years.
Despite the slight changes, Mercante remains a great place to visit, especially for their pizzas. The restaurant is known for its fast service, with pizzas cooked in around 10 minutes, and ample seating. While the pasta has been described as disappointing, the mini caprese salad is praised for its delicious sauce. Some customers have suggested improvements for the margherita pizza, noting issues with cooking and seasoning, but they still enjoy the fresh taste and good pricing.
