My partner and I always come for special occasions and have a wonderful experience. The service is always great, we’ve had a couple great servers who have been very personable and make the experience that much better, and the food is amazing. I am celiac (needing gluten free), and I always appreciate when the complimentary gluten free focaccia is brought to the table, and it’s delicious! I also am obsessed with their chicken penne pasta, highly recommend giving it a try if you haven’t!

My family and I have been to II Mercato numerous times and each visit gets better and better, no question. My wife is celiac and nearly every dish they have can somehow be accommodated to be GF & the table bread they provide is also fresh and GF! The staff are incredibly friendly, the atmosphere is so warm and welcoming. We recently did our gender reveal and they went above and beyond. Thank you so so much

We went on a Thursday evening and prior to going we asked if reservations were required and they said highly recommended. We sat outside on the covered deck on a beautiful evening, we ordered drinks to start our night out. Our waitress was simply amazing, she was up on allergies which my wife is celiac. She said they could make anything on the menu Gf and even had bread that was gf to dip which was to die for. Our apps were so delicious and just perfect amount leaving to our main course. The waitress even brought more gf bread for my wife which we didn't ask for so that was such a nice touch. The night out was so relaxing and enjoyable with the food to the customer service snd the atmosphere. This establishment is highly recommended for those who are celiac and anyone else just looking for an amazing meal.
