Marcello Ristorante Sarasota Reviews from The Last Year
Marcello's Ristorante is OUTSTANDING!! Food prepared by
Marcello's Ristorante is OUTSTANDING!! Food prepared by Chef Marcello is beyond words, staff is engaging and warm! Fourth time there and we'll be back next time we're in town
Top Notch Quality and Quantity
Fantastic meal; we'll be back for sure. Food and service are terrific. Very classy place, we love it. Wine selection is awesome.
Just love this place.
It's become THE place to go for our special occasions. Outstanding food, service and ambiance, as well as one heck of a wine selection! A little bit of Italy in Sarasota. The best Italian restaurant in the area by far.

Larry jaffe here, I'm new to the Sarasota area, but a foodie nevertheless!just had my 3rd visit to marchellos last evening! I'm pretty well traveled & a wino of 40 years! I was like a kid in a candy store, trying to digest the PHENOMENAL list of brunello! , a 2016 caught my eye!& I ordered what might have been the ABSOLUTE BEST veal Milanese, in my 50 plus years of great Italian dinners, the plate was barely big enough to contain the perfectly cooked (bone-in) chop,w baby arugula & great homemade pasta! I've heard a few stories that marchellos is a bit pricy! FOLKS! IT AINT TRUE!, chef marchellos is a "ONE MAN GANG" If, and I said IF , you can snag a reservation!, it s not just dinner, it's an EXPERIENCE, not to be missed! GO THERE! NUFF SAID!
Authentic Italian cuisine
Amazing dinning experience. The food reminds me of when a was young. There were small Italian restaurants that made me feel good. The servers the food is the best I have eaten in years.
A Once in Lifetime Experience.
Our Chef Marcello and server Jeffrey truly provided a once in a life time experience. Ambience, wine selection and menu were truly amazing! So awesome that there is a restaurant right here on Sarasota that competes with anything anywhere in the world that I have ever eaten. Iām truly in awe of this place and so weāre all of my guests.
Best restaurant in town! Food is exceptional from daily
Best restaurant in town! Food is exceptional from daily blackboard menu. Chef Marcello right out front cooking each meal to order. Fabulous wine selection at great prices. Very attentive service. Fun atmosphere; an experience!
The menu was fantastic, and the meals were cooked to
The menu was fantastic, and the meals were cooked to perfection. Wine selection was superb. Service was good, server was knowledgeable but not friendly. Would not have hurt to crack a smile. Busy, yes but c'mon man! When someone spends that kind of money a little friendliness and personality is expected. Detracted from the experience!
Superb! From the food, to the ambience, to the wine
Superb! From the food, to the ambience, to the wine selection, to the wonderful owner Marcello who is the chef! Can't wait to return!
Great night out.
If you're a wine person, especially Italian wines, this is the place for you. Food was very good, all agreed, and ample portions. Waiters were friendly, actually swapped a few jokes with them. Vibe is like a small upscale neighborhood restaurant. I spoke with Marcello for a few moments about making future reservations, and he's quite friendly. Did I mention a great wine list? We'll be back.
Great experience.
Select but varied menu. Witness the chef single-handedly prepare food your meal in an open kitchen. Food is spectacular...shrimp and lobster pappardelle, Chilean sea bass. Flavorful and delicately prepared. Good portions.
Excellent restaurant!
The owner/chef is very hands on and takes pride in his product. We've been 4/5 times and plan on many more visits. The Caesar salad is tableside and outstanding! Last night my husband had the braised ribs and I had cioppino, both were excellent. I had a Pinot noir from Napa valley it was reasonably priced. This is a restaurant that you want to take your time and enjoy. I love how the menu changes and offers interesting options. Our waiter had a strong Italian accent but we understood him perfectly and he was super sweet!
Absolutely the best italian cuisine in Sarasota .
Usually weeks out for reservations . Watch Marcello do his thing in open kitchen.
Exceptional Party Private Dining
We have eaten at Marcello's several times. Marcello is the consummate chef/owner. He does everything from reservations, to the daily shopping, to the menu creation, and cooking every meal. The food is outstanding. Our recent visit was with friends visiting from DC and we wanted to go somewhere special. We were a large party of 9 and were blown-away when we were seated in the wine room. It was setup like you would a wine tasting in Tuscany. It was intimate and our waiter was attentive. We had charcuterie, Caesar salad, and a variety of the dinner specials, and two different desserts. This was a night for everyone to remember. Some reviews complain about it being small and a bit noisy in the main dining room. I think it allows the chef/owner to manage the quality of the dining experience. We will definitely go again. Thank you Marcello for a wonderful evening!

Food was great atmosphere was ok service was great would recommend and will return. Don't let the location put you off yes it's in strip mall on 41 but it's better than a lot of other so called good restaurants
Chef-owned restaurant with truly professional wait staff.
Fabulous menu, preparation and service. It is small and requires a reservation. Call two or three weeks ahead! The pounded veal chop with arugula is delicious and there is always a variety of seafood and meat entrees as well as pasta to die for. It is cozy but not quiet. The menu is new every day. One of the region's best restaurants.
Everything was Just Fine
Went for our anniversary dinner but probably wonāt be back. As mentioned, this is a very small restaurant & can be difficult to get a reservation, unless you are a regular (and there were a lot). The service feels deliberately slow and there is no rushing the small, professional staff or the owner/chef. The food was very good, but not the āraveā many feel. What we noticed was the vibe. Clearly, regular customers are treated far better than new ones which got annoying when trying to get service. The waiter bragged to us āhow much money people spend hereā. So? We did not enjoy the āwe dont need you vibeā and will gladly go elsewhere.
Disappointing
We went to celebrate my husbands birthdayThe only thing good about this restaurant was the waiter. Food was nothing to write home about. They did have a great wine list. So disappointed. Who is writing these reviews. Over priced and had to look for the pasta that came with short ribs
Rude waiter good food
excellent food, best seafood papardella, but extremely noisy. A fast talking, impossible to understand and very rude waiter. He was impatient, snooty and caused so much tension we considered leaving. Very long waiting time to be served and pricy. If you have a lot of patience, don't mind great noise, go, the food was good. I never tip below 20%, but this time.....
A MUST GO!
What a gem! Food was delicious, service was great, ambience/ atmosphere very nice. Tableside prepared classic Cesare salad was awesome, cannot get any fresher. We were a party of six and everyone had a different entrƩe, which came out steaming, directly from the pan. All dinners came out in a timely manner, so everyone could enjoy the very tasty dinner at the same time. DEFINITELY will be back!

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a responseā¦ how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been āmatchedā with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

I am having a tough time contacting and elucidating a response from AT Support. I had a listing at 6pm, which was a mistake as the actual listing reservation was at 11pm. This got somehow approved by AT, and a customer bought this from me for 6pm. I want to cancel this listing and refund customer , but there is no way of doing this ! This is so frustrating and making me lose hope on AT. Can someone help me please?

Banned from Resy for selling reservations- Do we have a rat on our hands???
I am new to this app and started off by selling a polo bar reservation and then quickly sold one more reservation. Not long after I received emails from Resy saying all my reservations are cancelled and I am being banned from Resy for life. How could this have possibly happened without a rat telling Resy that I sold the reservation. I need some advice on this situation and letās catch the rat!
