This review is solely my opinion and not necessarily the opinion of the entire group. I was here with a group of people and Marinelli’s was called beforehand to see if we could be accommodated. They said yes and stated that they would turn on the heat in their back room for us. When we got to Marinelli’s we were directed into the back room/garage to our table
Since we were a group, they had to put a few tables together. The tables were arranged in a long “L” such that the four of us at the bottom of the “L” had no one across the table from us to allow for conversation. I recommend that one of your staff go to “Banquet 101” class in order to learn how to place tables to better accommodate a group.
When we got there, the heat had been turned on but someone forgot/didn’t know how to turn it on properly and those at the bottom of the “L” shaped table arrangement got hit with cold air on their backs and heads due to cold air coming in from the outside.
It was then time to place our orders. I was third in line to order and requested a “Grilled Chicken Grinder” which is listed as a HOT grinder. All of the orders were placed. At the proper time, the finished orders came out and everyone got their dinner/food/meal EXCEPT me and they were eating. After a time, the wait person came out and had the nerve to ask me what I had ordered (I no longer had your menu AND she took my order). I mentioned what I requested and she disappeared. As everyone else was well into enjoying their food, out came the wait person with a sandwich for me. The chicken was room temperature, stuck in the bottom of a sliced loaf of Italian bread, with COLD arugula, COLD mozzarella, and COLD roasted red peppers on top. Balsamic glaze was nowhere to be found. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A HOT SANDWICH. I ate half because I was hungry but that was not what I ordered. I ordered a HOT sandwich. Once I got home I tossed the other half.
Finally, when it was time to receive my bill, the wait person had to AGAIN ask me what I had ordered. It is apparent to me that someone really SCREWED up and I will seriously think about whether I want to return to your establishment again.

Great Italian food, good portions, reasonably priced. Definitely get a red sauce dish. I highly recommend the "Sunday Leftovers" dish. Meatballs, sausage, peppers, onions in marinara sauce over garlic bread. YUMMY!!! Highly recommended 👍
