We love having dinner at Marsilio's. Alan and Denice are always wonderful hosts and the food is wonderful. Particularly enjoyed the spicy clams and mussels appetizer, followed by a veal chop over broccoli rabe and roasted potatoes, followed by creme brulee and cappucino. Highly recommend Marsilio's!

We had an extremely pleasant experience. Great drinks and wine selection. Calamari was some of the best we've had. Both entrées, saltimbocca and cacciatore, were prepared extremely well. Waitress was friendly and consistently checked on us throughout the meal. Would happily return to try any other dish.

Always a great experience at Marsilio’s Hands down my favorite place to take my family and have an incredible dinner. The food never disappoints. It’s simple and delicious. From the artichoke limone, grilled octopus, veal bergamo chicken parm with prosciutto and spinach to the tiramisu, tartufo and limoncello. Everything is always delicious. The place is always full of local friends and family.
