The ingredients they use here are very fresh. The vegetables remind me of the way Chinese vegetables are cooked. Everything was delicious. From the cheese and vegetable special to the tiramisu. The ice cream is made in house and the staff are very friendly. It feels like a lovely home.

4.3 / 5 is a well deserved score. Authentic Italian charm. Has Michelin recommendations from 2010-2015 on the walls.

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.

What a wonderful evening, aside from the overall atmosphere and ambiance of the restaurant. The staff members are very friendly and our bar tender Mano ( very skilled ) made us a speciality cocktail.
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 !

Great food, lovely place and service. I should say it’s uncomfortable to sit long due to tiny space and wooden chairs, but the foord is gorgeous. You wanna come back every year for it. I tried the cod fish, lsagna and alfredo and loved all.

Even though the restaurant was full, the service was excellent from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, prepared with great care and high-quality ingredients. The staff were quick, attentive, and very friendly. The owner personally greets guests and makes sure everyone is happy, which makes the experience even more special. You can truly feel the passion and dedication in every detail. I’ll definitely be back!!

Griselda was my server and she was amazing! I love the recommendation for my lasagna with the chili oil.
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

Authentic Italian Dining in NYC

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.

I love this restaurant: food is super delicious and the portions are generous. I have come here for years. The service has been always good except for today May 15, 2025. We were assigned a table and the menu was handed to us. We were ready to order and ask the food runner if we can order our food; the young guy told us that the waiter was in the restroom so we waited for around 15 minutes. Finally she came and didn’t apologize. Anyway we ordered pasta and fish. After we finished eating we paid and leave her a note saying it was only 10% for the delay. We left the restaurant and she came after us screaming and insulting us. I would like to advice management or owners to select your staff carefully because it’s not fear that an amazing place like this have this kind of employees.
