“ The food was delicious, as always. It can become pretty crowded so I would definitely make a reservation. It can become pretty loud if you’re looking for a quiet dinner. But the food and drinks are always top tier. Highly recommend. ”

“ The food and ambiance were excellent, and the service given to us by Nancy was amazing! She was very charming, gracious, informative, and she knew how to be perfectly attentive without hovering. My Manhattan was perfectly made, and Mary and I shared a bottle of their hand made small batch red sangria which was also excellent. They called it a pitcher on the menu, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was pure sangria in a full size bottle and not a pitcher full of ice where it gets watered down before you poor. ”

“ First time here. Visiting family in Bordentown and my nephew worked here once and recommended it. Great food. Music a little too loud and service was great. Will come again. ”

“ The food here was absolutely delicious. We arrived for happy hour and started with the mussels marinara, chopped antipasto, italian egg rolls and fried calamari. Everything was amazing. For the main course we had the bianca pizza, chicken parm dinner and frutti di mare. It was so good that even though we were full we kept eating. Excellent food, great service and beautiful atmosphere. We will definitely be back. ”

“ I remember growing up and seeing this place do better and better every year. While there have been many changes, the food and service have remained excellent. We visited a few weeks ago and it was great. Our server was attentive and kind, even as the place was packed. The food was so delicous and exactly what we wanted. I got bolognese while my wife and sister shared a pizza. Marcello's has been a Bordentown staple for decades, and with good reason! Whether you are a city resident or just visiting, a stop at Marcello's is a must. ”
