Additional Information
I've dined there at least 10 times in the last year since moving to Ithaca.The owner/manager that sometimes works behind the bar... and a waitress that used to work there are both very nice people. Walked in last night asking for a table for 2, a waiter toldus it's an hour wait, fine with us. Before I left, I asked if we could sit at the bar, pointing to 2 empty bar stools, he saidthey could only seat 1 there. So out of curiosity, i simply asked "why"? He was triggered. He asked us what we do for work.Confused, we told him what we do. Then he went on to ask if we make decisions at work... (Unnecessarily long conversation to getto his point that it's his decision to make.) It was a funny conversation, but I thought the passive aggressiveness wasuncalled for for a simple question. Hopefully he was just having a bad day. I certainly won't be going back there. Read more
Very quaint and inviting. The atmosphere in this restaurant is very relaxed and offers dinning as well as a great bar. Our... waiter was excellent. He was very cordial and personable and never skipped a beat. The food was very good. The place is smalland gets filled up very quickly so I would suggest getting there when they open at 5:30 pm to guarantee a table. Read more
We ate here last summer when we dropped our son at college. It was an incredible meal and the memory of it lingered so when we... scheduled this summer's trip we knew we had to go again. The food is excellent. We spent most of July in Italy. If you'vebeen to Italy, you know that the Italians are serious about food. Therefore, our Italian food quality threshold was high as wecame back to the States for August. Mercato delivered with well prepared dishes that could have been served at the bestrestaurants in Italy. The wait staff here is passionate about food and about their restaurant. They know what they are doingand it comes across with every bite. In the heart of Central New York is a little oasis of Italy. Mercato is the spot. Read more
I have lived in Ithaca for 7 yrs and the very limited menu here has not changed. What has changed is how rude the staff is and... the quality of the restaurant. Besides being impossible to plan for.. since they don't take reservations and turn away customerseven with empty tables.. the food is average at best with NYC prices, all topped by unhappy and unhelpful wait staff.

Definitely the best restaurant in the Commons ???? All the employees here are super friendly and knowledgble! The lamb and... mint pasta is to die for. I know I'll be upset if it ends up getting switched out, but I'll also be excited to try something new???? Read more
