MERCATO. A Classic Italian Restaurant featuring live Jazz music!

Buona Sera! Your table is waiting. Settle into a plush leather booth downstairs or ascend an illuminated staircase to the serene elegance of seating upstairs under the dome. Or, join us at the long, European inspired marbled bar, bathed in the golden glow of deco chandeliers, where you can start the evening with martinis, bellinis and Chiantis while listening to the finest in live jazz.

MERCATO provides the colorful setting for Executive Chef Eddie Moran's intriguing blend of Italian regional culinary styles. The restaurant's two levels are framed by richly-hued Venetian plaster walls, and the banquets and chairs are covered with Italian leather in the same browns and Tuscan reds. A 1950's Italian chandelier hanging from the dramatically-domed second-floor ceiling illuminates a menu designed to appeal to those in the mood for specialties of the house including:

~ Potato Gnocchi with slow braised short rib, cipollini onions & oven dried sweet tomato ~

~ Tagliatelle Bolognese with classic hearty veal meat sauce ~

~ Pork Osso Bucco with Anson Mills creamy polenta, citrus gremolata & rosemary pork sauce ~

~ Grilled Pizza with tasty toppings such as prosciutto and arugula ~

Our regular guests know all about Meatball Mondays - a very special evening for those who can't get enough of the classic dishes.
