" We visited Mercato for a casual Sunday brunch, and it exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was lively yet relaxed, and the service was prompt. I had the pumpkin ravioli, which was perfectly seasoned and surprisingly filling. My partner enjoyed the breakfast pizza, which had a nice crispy crust. Each dish had an authentic flair, and we appreciated how fresh everything tasted. Our only complaint was that the outdoor seating area was a bit noisy at times. Regardless, we will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I chose Mercato for our anniversary dinner and it was a fantastic choice! The ambiance was warm and romantic. I started with the prosciutto e melone — a classic dish done well. For my main, I had the pasta al pomodoro which was outstanding, bursting with freshness. What truly stood out was their attentive service; our server came by regularly to check in on us without being intrusive. As we finished, we could not resist ordering the bourbon bread pudding, which was the best dessert I’ve had in a long while. A must-visit for Italian and dessert lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has become my favorite date night spot, thanks to its cozy ambiance and delicious food. My partner and I love sharing meals, and we are always impressed by how generous the portion sizes are. I often order the wild mushroom ravioli, which is delectable and very authentic in flavor. We usually finish off the meal with a shared dessert, and their tiramisu is the best I've ever had! Overall, a place I highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" We were excited to try Mercato after the rave reviews, but our experience was less than impressive. While the ambiance was beautiful, our food didn’t reflect the same standard. The lasagna was dry and not very flavorful. The service was a bit slow, too, despite the restaurant not being particularly busy. I really hope it was just an off day because I had such high hopes. I may give it another chance later. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Mercato Ristorante was delightful! We were greeted warmly upon arrival and seated promptly at our reserved table. The interiors are elegant yet comfortable, making it perfect for a date night or family dinner. I ordered the homemade gnocchi with a rich marinara sauce, and it was heavenly. The portions were just right, and I felt satisfied without being overly stuffed. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the wine selection, helping us find the perfect pairing. I will definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been wanting to try Mercato ever since I moved to Olympia a year ago. Finally made the visit and it was worth the wait! The interior is cozy and chic. I ordered the lasagna, and it was rich and hearty, just what I needed that evening. We had a great time sipping cocktails and enjoying the ambiance. The staff was friendly and made sure we enjoyed our time there. Overall, a delightful dining experience, and I can’t wait to bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mercato never fails to deliver a top-notch dining experience. My favorites are the calamari appetizer and any of their fresh pasta dishes. Every bite is full of flavor and authenticity. I would recommend the seafood linguini, as it was loaded with shrimp and clams. The decor is quaint yet upscale, making it a great place for a casual date or a special occasion. The staff knows the menu well and always provides commendable service, making each visit enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)
