- BKBriana KisowNov 17, 20255.0Delicious food and excellent service. We tried the Gnocchi Con Bolognese and Spaghetti Carbonara. I highly recommend both. The quality and taste is right up there with authentic dishes from Italy.
- AAAndrewNov 14, 20255.0Had an absolutely phenomenal experience at Marcella’s. We got the calamari, meatball, and bread is an appetizer which were fantastic. Wine recommendation was a great pairing. Ended up going with the gnocchi and it was some of the best I’ve ever had. Service was fantastic!
- DSDan SwankNov 6, 20255.0Absolute gem of a spot. Have dinner at the bar every time I visit Columbus. Came here tonight at 5 PM for an early happy hour & the place was pretty packed - they have the staff/pace to keep up with it. Food is delicious. Cannot recommend enough!
- M5mywristhurts92 55Oct 31, 20255.0I love coming here. I travel to Columbus for work fairly frequently and I always take my coworkers to Marcella's for their incredible happy hour. The menu is also very vegetarian friendly. Their new pizza with hot honey (something Rossa) is to die for. And you need to try the fried risotto balls. Oh, and the half-off St. Germain spritz! Honestly, it's all good. The service is always very fast and attentive. I can't recommend this place enough!
- JWJeanette WilsonOct 20, 20255.0Where do I begin! Firstly, my family is cursed with allergies and celiacs so we don't go out to eat very often. Marcellas was so accommodating and they were ready for us. I had the GF chicken parmesan and I was in heaven. I start with the GF bruschetta the only downside of the experience was that you could tell the bread was GF (IYKYK) but the chicken was breaded with GF panko, never would know, and it was GF penne that again if they didn't tell you, you wouldn't now. My kid got the GF 4 cheese pizza and he thought he was eating real pizza again. Seriously we had the thought that we had been fooled and we would actually be in pain in no time. But nope here it is the next day and no reactions. My other son who somehow missed all the genetic food defects had the spaghetti and meatball(yes 1 giant melt in your mouth meatball) and he said it's the best spaghetti dish he has ever had. Then to top it all off they had GF dessert options! I had the lemon blueberry tart(thought I had died and gone to heaven while eating it) and my kids split a GF strawberry cheesecake. Then to keep going our server was wonderful and kind and asked all the right questions about our dietary needs, and he was knowledgeable about the menu. We will 1000% go back next time we are in Columbus. It is pricey, but when it's a treat and stuff you can't typically eat it was worth every penny.
