Mercato Ristorante and Bar offers a pleasant dining experience with attentive staff and good food. The restaurant has a modern atmosphere, suitable for families with children, as it provides ample room for strollers and wheelchairs. The Prefix dinner, which includes an appetizer, main course, and dessert along with a bottle of wine, remains a popular choice. Recent reviews highlight improved service, with friendly and accommodating staff making guests feel welcome. While the food is generally good, some dishes like fish and burgers have been described as bland or not particularly special. The standout items include the mascarpone, pear, and prosciutto crostini, along with excellent pizza options like Margherita and Meatball. The ambiance is nice and authentic, creating a fun and vibrant atmosphere, although some feel the food taste does not always match the prices. The restaurant has hosted special events, including a memorable 80th birthday party, with excellent organization and a welcoming environment. Guests have enjoyed their time at the bar, even during a storm, and some have mentioned the need for better air conditioning to enhance comfort. Overall, Mercato continues to be a decent place to dine, with a lively atmosphere and attentive service making it worth a visit.
