    We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas evening dinner here. After a long day traveling in from NY, this was a much needed meal. Service and food were great. We will come again on our next trip.

    Our server was excellent and knew the menu really well. I had the shellfish over homemade linguine and my husband had ricotta gnocchi in their evening’s specialty sauce. I am Italian and we are from New Jersey, where we have great Italian restaurants. This place is on par or better than what we are used to up North. Excellent place!!

    The food and experience was outstanding. We had the fried mini meatballs which were off the charts delicious and pizza for an appetizer which also was fantastic. For our main dish I had the veal chop on the bone parmigiana which was tender and so tasty and my wife had spaghetti DOP which she loved. Dessert was the waffle with ice cream which complimented our evening perfectly. Another outstanding night at Martoranos. Thank you Steve and Merry Christmas

    Came for Christmas Eve Dinner. Feast of the 7 fishes. We started with a bottle of Chianti Classico. We both had octopus carpaccio. So tender & delicious. For the mains, we had snapper with, clams, mussels & shrimp with squid ink pasta. Totally blew our minds!!! A perfect way to start the holiday!!! Joe, our server was quick & very personable. We were too full for dessert but enjoyed a double expresso. We haven’t been here for a long time. Atmosphere, sitting outside on the water was delightful. A truly, wonderful experience tonight. We will be back soon for sure!
