The spaghetti marinara and meatball was excellent. Many types of pasta, pizza, salads, and appetizers on the menu. Full bar available. Popular with the locals. Service was quick friendly.

We hired Martinelli's to cater our wedding in Wichita and everything went perfectly. We had so many people come up to us raving about the food. They traveled to Wichita and made the food at location - it was fresh and amazing. The staff were wonderful and attentive as well!

Visiting for the first time. We had heard good reviews for little Italy. Some friends had been there the month before us. Food was great. Server was very knowledgeable and friendly. Most have desert when you go.

Absolutely wonderful. The host gave a wonderful drink suggedtion, and our server, Alex, was marvelous. The house specials were amazing, too. My wife and I try to travel to Salina once every couple of months, and Martinelli's is well worth the trip every time. This time was especially good. I HIGHLY recommend trying their meatball!

Traveled 15 states and 5 provinces the past 2 months and this was the best meal we’ve had. Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa, Winnipeg, Regina, Salt Lake City, Denver and a bunch of smaller cities. None could compare. Paige and her cohorts were the best!

Great place! Staff was very friendly, food was delicious! Very glad we stopped in while in the area. Deceptively large restaurant, looks small from the front, but plenty of room inside. Clean, and waiter was very polite and kept everything cleared away and drinks full at all times. A+Kid-friendliness: Host had water/bread and kids coloring sheets on the table before we were even seated.

I guess that this is what passes for Italian Cuisine, I mean food, in small town America. The Sausage and Zucchini soup—of which I only had a cup—was the best item of my meal. Iceberg spines permeated the “tomato and lettuce” salad, or was it the lettuce and tomato salad? The PESTO was watery and without much flavor in the linguine with shrimp, baby baby scallops and bits of asparagus, mainly stems.Parking: On the “strip” of a nice and aspiring downtown. Looks like they are working to develop the downtown instead if letting it die. Public Sculptures on the street—nice, if a bit sleepy, yet.

The staff is always kind, courteous, and attentive no matter how busy the restaurant is at that time. The food is always great, big portions at an affordable price. Thank you.
We had our reunion at Martinelli's for the 2nd time in five years and once again they did an outstanding job. We had the two large banquet rooms in the back that can combine to seat over 120 people. The room has a dance floor, bar & bathrooms nearby. We went with the Chicken and Beef this time and all food was hot and plentiful. The mashed potatoes are real with some skin & green beans were great along with excellent dessert of tiramisu and cannoli. We had 4 wait staff to make sure the food was hot and refilled, water/tea on tables, etc. They were present, but not hovering. A big thanks to two of them April & Brandy in the photo. It was a great evening filled with classmates & fun. I would highly recommend reserving any of Martinelli's three private rooms. Thanks - SCHS '78

Stopped here on our road trip because of the great reviews. We were a little disappointed. We did not get the bread everyone spoke about and our appetizer was forgotten. The food came quick. The lasagna was good but the chicken parm was not crispy at all. Overall a decent place but probably would not go out of our way to stop here again.
