Reviews
Tables are cute older wood. Short and tight, and seats are benches with a thin cushion.
Atmosphere when busy is fun. When empty, it’s a bit dry, but has charm.
Food. Hit and miss.
-Polpette (meatballs) skip
-Fried Mistura (Calamari, Shrimp, Cod) was –
good. Tomato sauce bland.
-Arugala / Bresaola – decent, thick cheese, but refreshing
-Polpo – octopus, absolutely the BEST
-Sausage and Potatoes (Skip, breakfast sausage)
-cavateli pasta with pork ragu – underwhelming and worst size pasta ever for texture and visuals)
– special fish dish (oratta – like a branzino but not) with capers and lemon butter and cauliflower. But dry and lacklustre.
– braised beef ragu dinner was decent. Some people liked with me, others no.
After all, fun, busy experience. I liked it but wouldn’t go back.
Had great conversation and left us wanting to return for round too very very soon .
In addition to being here in this fabulous Italia Restaurant, I enjoyed one of the best conversations in a while with a very good friend.
In my book 10/10
Thank you !
Went with my wife after à Broadway show, We found it randomly on Resy App .
I wanted to try a cocktail but I felt the menu was all over the place, would love to see signature drinks or seasonal drinks. Cozy spot a little warm today but cooled off after sitting a while
If you’re looking for authentic Italian food in New York City, MERCATO is a must-visit. On my recent visit, I ordered the Caprese salad with a side of prosciutto and paired it with a cold Forst beer, and it was an unforgettable experience.
The Caprese salad was beautifully presented with ripe heirloom tomatoes, creamy fresh mozzarella, fragrant basil, and a drizzle of high-quality olive oil with a touch of balsamic reduction. Each bite tasted fresh and full of flavor, showcasing the simplicity and elegance of true Italian cuisine.
Adding the prosciutto elevated the dish even further—the salty, delicate cured ham paired perfectly with the sweetness of the tomatoes and the richness of the mozzarella. It transformed a light starter into a gourmet experience.
To round it all out, I enjoyed an ice-cold Forst beer, an Italian classic. Crisp, refreshing, and slightly bitter, it was the ideal complement to the fresh flavors of the salad and the savory prosciutto.
MERCATO is not just another Italian restaurant in NYC—it’s a place where authentic Italian flavors, high-quality ingredients, and a warm, rustic atmosphere come together. Whether you’re stopping by for a light bite or a full meal, I highly recommend trying the Caprese salad with prosciutto and a Forst beer. It’s the perfect combination for anyone craving a true Italian dining experience in Midtown Manhattan.
