Best Italian Restaurants in Marlborough

We had a booth which was lovely for our book club discussion. Our server was excellent and we each had the grain salads, which were excellent! We had a lovely evening!

It has been over 2 decades since I last ate here! Ownership has changed and the menu probably has as well. What you would expect of an Italian restaurant in terms of food and quality of seafood was good. Mussels appetizer had 2 of 30 (or so) that didn't open. Branzino was a good size and cooked well. Service was perhaps a bit overly attentive at the beginning as if they were in a rush for us to order by asking us every couple of minutes if we were ready, but once we did, never felt rushed to leave the table the rest of the night.

Food and service was top notch! If I can add 1 ‘thought’: if you’d remove just 1 block of tables along the booth wall I think it would make a world of difference. The server kept bumping against our table while she scooted in to serve our neighboring tables. Just a little more space would create a more intimate setting. My husband and I prefer ‘date night’ seating and I feel there’s only possibly 2/3 tables that would meet that desire. Finally- I DO want to thank the mgr for allowing us to stay at a 4 person table(as we were only 2). The alternative would really have had an impact on my review. PS. Just omit 1 table😁

We dined in the bar area at a booth, having an early meal at 5pm. The service, food, and seating were all fantastic. However, by the end of our meal, the noise level was so loud, we couldn’t hear each other speak. We intentionally dined early in the evening to avoid this issue, but to no avail. If you want a quieter space, I’d certainly recommend the dining room.

OpenTable thinks we didn’t show up. But, Anika took great care of us. And she earned a generous tip for her hard work and positive attitude. I’d go back again, but not if OpenTable again sends me a disgusting e-mail that accuses us of being a no-show.
