Marcello’s - Suffern

For appetizers, we enjoyed the sautéed calamari, fried goat cheese salad, and crab cake, all of which were delicious and generously portioned! Next, we tried the gnocchi and strozzapreti, both of which were incredibly tender and practically melted in our mouths. For our main courses, we had the salmon, panko-crusted pork, and veal Milanese. We were pleased with all of them; however, just a note on the Milanese—it comes as a dressed salad without any cheese, onion, or tomato. The crème brûlée was exceptional, as were the after-dinner coffees! I'm definitely looking forward to returning and trying a cooking class!

DELICIOUS! I dined with my family a few nights ago, and everything was flawless. We started with a couple of glasses of wine—Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir—and both were excellent. We ordered the Artisanal Taccozze Molisane, and let me tell you, it was the BEST DISH we had on the table. The braised beef and veal ragu were absolutely DELICIOUS! We also tried the veal francese over pasta, which was very tasty, and the chicken francese was good too, with perfectly cooked vegetables accompanying it. And of course, the chicken parmigiana was also great! For dessert, we indulged in strawberry zabaione, flourless chocolate cake, a tartufo, and coconut sorbet. Everything was scrumptious, but the flourless chocolate cake was the standout! AMAZING food paired with impeccable service. We can’t wait to return!

I visited this restaurant for dinner as pandemic restrictions began to ease in 2021. There was plenty of street parking available. The waiter and either the manager or owner were very friendly, and the service was excellent. The food was well-prepared, and the restaurant was clean with a pleasant atmosphere.

Had a great meal here appetizers, entrees and delicious zabaglione for dessert with fresh strawberries. We were starving and I really loved the food. The gemmelini with cream sauce is a great extra entree to order but share amongst the table so everyone gets a taste. The wine list was comprehensive and had bottles and glasses to fit pallets and budgets. Service from the waitresses was great. The brunette server assistants were totally ignoring us, which was annoying. They didn 't give me bread, but gave my husband two piece. They didn 't refill our water. She took my plate while I was still eating! Maybe I 'd be less hungry if you gave me bread. That was frustrating but everything else was fine. We were even graciously greeted by Marcelo himself. Very nice touch. I 'll definitely be back if I 'm in the area. The pork cutlet and pastas are absolutely delicious!

On the small plates menu: @assaggievino Horseradish Crusted Baked Salmon, Sautéed Shrimp with beans veggies polenta, Clams Oreganata, Slow Baked Parmigiana of Eggplant, and Burrara with tomato. Each plate exceeded our expectations and the service is exceptional. You can see how Chef Marcello Rossodivito pays attention to the details, from the wine list, the drink selections to the ingredients in each plate.
