Morgan McKee

In my hood but just tried and found it surprisingly good! Both pasta and fish were tasty and hearty portions . Service was attentive and quick. Atmosphere dark and a bit homey . Try it if nearby!

Ashley Zeldin

Authentic , fulfilling exp if you order well . After your bread & lentils , try tiella pugliese, indulgent mussel & tomato risotto layered over potato . Small ravioli portion. Finish w moist tiramisu .

Village Voice

Pasta and seafood reign supreme at Mercato. Get the heaping plate of seafood linguine , coated in fiery fra diavolo, which practically bursts with mussels , squid , shrimp and clams .

Stephen Sheppard

A traditional NY Italian restaurant feel, with traditional food . Might have preferred something a bit lighter. Somewhat crowded and noisy , but friendly . Friday/weekend reservations recommended.

Jason Bailey

Open super late and amazing Italian food . Possibly, some of the best pasta in the city ! Great for a post broadway meal or night cap, only a 10 minute walk.

Rowan Fuller

Great neighbourhood Italian - food / service / atmosphere all way above average, an impromptu business lunch thoroughly enjoyed by four jaded Europeans.

Val J

Great ambiance, delicious authentic food, great service. I'll be back for sure.

Michael Zhong

Though the portions are medium-small, the spaghetti is among the best spaghetti I've ever had. Rich garlic flavor with ample (truly) fresh tomato sauce .

Rabiah

Great ambiance. Authentic and unique dishes that are all delicious. I can't resist the lasagne . And, the ricotta cheesecake is a fave of mine. Not too sweet so don't expect "cheesecake factory". Read more

Tara DeVincenzo

ask for which pasta is actually homemade . then get drunk on a bottle of wine , enjoy the bufala mozzarella and eat frutti di mari

Kimberly

Cozy spot with authentic atmosphere, perfect for a date. Prices are reasonable

The rigatoni with eggplant and salted ricotta was PHENOM. Others in my group loved their meals as well . Fried artichoke was small but really tasty. I want to try everything on the menu!

Compass

Just a few blocks from Port Authority, you’ll find this mood-lit trattatoria, it’s well-stocked wine vault, and a cozy atmosphere that feels anything but “bridge and tunnel .”

Will Arnone

Authentic Italian with homemade pastas , terrific sardines and, of course, meatballs .

Elvira Mamleeva

Amazing place. Tagliata di manzo and filetto di orata are perfect! Super sweet tomatoes in caprese salad (was made in few minutes actually)!

Jay Slot

I'm a regular here, Owner Fabio specialty is classic cocktails of old which is fun. Of note: the Burratina, Stracciatella , Orecchiette , and the Orata. Warm and authentic .

Jillian Vorce

Caprese was excellent, sage raviloi was pretty good Tiramisu & cappuccino are worth it! #yumm

D !

Excellent place. Small, romantic , good taste and outstanding music and attention. Anything else? Go now!!!!

Emily Lee

Hole-in-the-wall restaurant serving fresh, perfectly cooked pasta . Of the three dishes I got to taste, my favorite was the trenette .

Steve Larson

We had the rigatoni and lasagna , it was fantastico! Very crowded and noisy ,just like NYC ????. Wait staff was very attentive and professional.

Kelsey Huse

I love this place. Cozy and authentic . Everything is good!!

Darcy Gonzalez

Atmosphere is good for dates . The gnocchi in ragu sauce was amazing. The mussels are light, great app.

Sean-Patrick Hillman

Fresh and delicious Southern Italian fare that is a must-have for any Hell's Kitchen resident. The friendly staff and delightful libations only make this place even greater!

Kirill Fuchs

Very cozy , great wines at a very good price and great authentic Italian pasta dishes.

Drew Sickler

The gnocchi was BOMB! Great balance of sauce and meat with the plate; however, the portion size was smaller than anticipated.

Will Arnone

The real deal for authentic Southern Italian cuisine and atmosphere. Mangia! Especially the phenomenal homemade spaghetti .

Wim Broeders

Try out the Linguine al frutti di mare ! The best I’ve had in New York!

Florine Yun

You can't go without tasting their very special Lasagne . The grilled salmon is absolutely surprise. We would be back

Susan Lee

In a tourist-frenzied area w/ little to eat other than $1 pizza slices , Mercato stands out! Pasta is fresh and above average. It's one of the few good options in a 2 block radius.

Terence Chua

Really good Southern Italian food tucked away in Hell's Kitchen. I recommend the trenette al pesto and the pistachio semifreddo - delicious! Read more

Alex Hurst

Delicious! Authentic ! Get the lasagna .

Cesar Razuri

The traditional spaghetti is a solid choice. The burrata is house made and delicious.

Martina F

Prosecco ,fried mushrooms with garlic and Parmesan cheese ,tiramisu . Is there anything else you need?

Sophia Liu

You can definitely find better Italian in the city . Came for a birthday, and was charged a ridiculous cake cutting fee that was not communicated at the start. Group of 5 and 20% tip was already added.

Andrew Miller

Specials are always delicious, super fresh. Staff is great.

natalie kay

The specials are always excellent. Especially if they have pappardelle

Jimmy Wang

Good atmosphere but the food is quite mediocre, even for the modestly priced items on the menu. My wife has made much better pasta , mussels , and beat dishes at home

Nadia IssaBella

Amazing fresh pasta .. The lasagna would make your Nonna proud! ????

Nodir Suleymanov

Place maybe good, but waiters are very abusive to hostesses especially Marco, harassed my wife there he made her quit and brought his friend for her place

Angelina Zeppieri

very good Italian food , waiters all speak Italian. good Midtown option

Andrew Apostola

This is the best Italian in the city . It's all good, have a glass of Prosecco and raise it in the air: Jade and I had our wedding here on the 8th of September 2010!

Mandar M

Try the free bread and the Secret sauce - olive oil , lentils and capers . Yumm

aanwar

Ravioli with Spinach and Cheese and Tiramisu for dessert .

Tracy Boyd

One of my favorite restaurants to visit when I'm in NYC.

Romeu Rebello

Awesome tomato source. Lasagna was normal. Fair price and cossy.

Michelin Travel & Lifestyle

Tagliere Pugliese , a carefully selected platter of cured meats and sharp cheeses , is served here with classic taralli. - Inspector

Christian Currell Brosstad

Amazing Italian food . I haven't even eaten better in Italy ????????

Christopher Airey

Very good cocktails . Also an eclectic selection of Italian aperitifs.

Joe Bramhall

Really good pasta , had an excellent time here.

Stan

Truly authentic Puglia region cuisine - the "polpette y crostini " and "taglierre puglia" are my favorites.
