Here at Mercato, we are inspired by the meaning of our name, “market.” In Italy, locals gather to their nearest market, or Mercato, to experience firsthand the variety, freshness and quality the local ingredients have to offer. The market allows for everyone to gather together, indulge and become part of a community.
Each dish is prepared to order and delicately created with the influence of American and Italian cuisine alike. From pastas and flatbreads to savory entrees and the unique Chef specials, we aim to offer an abundance of variety to our customers. Our mission is to create an environment where everyone feels right at home because most importantly, we are a family!
So from our family to yours, WELCOME!

I never post a negative review, but maybe it will help this place. When I walked into Mercato with my date for Happy Hour on A Friday afternoon and sat at the bar I felt as if we were disturbing them. There was a lot of staff behind the counter and only one person was helping everyone. We ordered drinks and I have never ordered just one drink, but I could not even finish it as it was so bad. My date ordered a red Sangria and it seems like they used bad wine to make it. We both only took about 2 sips and couldn’t drink it anymore. That’s when I asked for water. The food was nothing special. I don’t get fast food but wish I had instead. I basically tasted what we ordered and left. The only thing I did enjoy was the coconut shrimp and barely touched the rest of the food. My date looked miserable so I told her I would take her to a different restaurant and we had a great meal there. Too bad as I was checking out the place to take about 28 people for brunch there. I am certain I will not return and have selected a different place to take my crew for brunch.

I chose to here for my family’s birthday dinner, the restaurant food is very good, the service is very good! Especially the birthday candles that were lit for us, and exquisite cakes were also presented! We are all happy, thank you! will come back

The food here was delicious, I had the fried calamari which was cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The bourbon steak was juicy and flavorful with thick cut mushrooms, two fried eggs and home fries was phenomenal. My friend ordered the open sliced steak sandwich smothered in marsala gravy which she said was delicious as well. Instead of a bread bowl we got mini muffins which I thought was unique. This place is wheelchair accessible. There is a pretty busy parking lot but ample parking.

Food was ok but not too much really stood out above all the other restaurants on Long Island. The buffalo chicken egg rolls were good as was the artichoke dip. My friend didn’t love the dressing for her salad. The pesto chicken sandwich on pita was a good portion but the chicken was slightly rubbery and it just felt it was lacking some flavor. The fries were average made worse by being cold. Service was friendly but slow considering it was not busy for lunch. Prices were on the higher side, perhaps some type of lunch special would have helped. They do take the foodie card for 10% off so I appreciate that.

Meet some friends for Happy Hour and was impressed by the atmosphere and food. I enjoyed the Buffalo Chicken Egg rolls. A hearty portion of egg rolls and delicious. Snuck a few pieces of the calamari and loved them perfectly cooked.

Big shout out to Mercato Kitchen & Cocktails in Massapequa! I organized a thank you celebration for a retiring school board official and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating and helpful! Mercato’s now has this extraordinary private room for events as well as a great patio area & outside bar! It was the perfect spot for everyone to gather and socialize! The food was plentiful and delicious! The drinks, as always, were amazing and quite a nice size! Mercato’s does not chintz and anything! The staff continuously attended to the guests and kept the drinks coming! The dinner also included a delicious occassion cake! It really is a great space for private events and very reasonably priced for all they provide!

My wife and I have both dined in and ordered takeout and have never been disappointed. From the very first visit we were treated like we have been friends forever as their staff were caring and attentive. Even now after all this time, as customers, we are never taken for granted. I am a picky eater but there is plenty to choose from on the menu and the food is delicious. The drinks are made to perfection and complement the large portions of food that are delivered to the table. We have spent many family special events there and have always left totally satisfied. Keep up the good work. I recommend Mercatos to all my friends.

You would hope a place with cocktails in the name would make some good ones and The Scarlet Bourbon did not disappoint. It was evident by the taste that the strawberries they muddled in were fresh. Absolutely delicious. Oh, and then they made this bread pudding with Brandy, and it was just as banging. Just look at it. No complaints on the cod, I just don’t get as excited about fish as I do drinks and desserts.

This is by far the best spot for brunch (especially if you’re gluten free)
