Restaurant has a very nice ambience, informal but not sloppy. Excellent service, extensive wine list, fresh ingredients well cooked and presented. Can certainly recommend. More

We dined at Mercato for the 3rd time on New Years eve. The warm welcome , the special ambiance, the wonderful menu and wine and the friendly professionalism of the staff made the evening an especially perfect way to see the year out. As we entered the restaurant for the 1st time several months ago I was surprised and did... More

We recently ate dinner at Mercato and were really impressed. The atmosphere was friendly and the decor tasteful. The waiters were attentive but discreet. The food was lovely. We were recommended this resturant by the owners of the B&B we were staying at and we can see why they liked going there themselves. On Monday nights they have a 'locals... More

We had a very good meal here and will recommend it 100% - but the dishes are not special or adventurous. Mercato comes a definite 3rd after Kazuki's and Perfect Drop. However - go and you will not be disappointed. More

Ambience and service are wonderful and the place is not stiff and starchy but h a formality. The food is regional, interesting and top class, from jellied smoked eel to spicy quail, delicious Tuki lamb loin and the huge sweet... More

Situated just out of the main drag in a beautifully converted old home, the atmosphere, decor and service are all five star. We had a cosy corner table on banquette type seating (my favourite) near the bar. Tables are far enough apart that you feel very private and service is totally professional and couldn't be faulted - staff knew everything... More

We have eaten at Mercato three or four times over a number of years and never been disappointed. The food is excellent and the service is attentive and professional. The wine advice has been particularly helpful. The ambiance of the lovely old building suits its rural setting. This restaurant matches the best that big city Melbourne has to offer. On... More
