| - I came here with a large group of people for some authentic Italian food, with expectations considering the Real-Housewives-of-New-Jersey-esque location.
Don't judge me.
They have a large enclosed patio, though the view is not special since the restaurant is located in a fairly new strip mall just North of Vaughan Mills mall.
They were about 40 minutes to closing, thanks to our ever-so-late dining buddies. Our host hesitated, slightly, but seated us in the middle of the restaurant. Our waitress took some time to warm up to us, but she was eager to please after a minute of ice-breaking banter.
Maybe she was a little shy?
The Bruschetta, though we were famished, was slightly underwhelming but definitely status-quo considering the Fazzoletto which was very dough-y and an undercooked dough-y version of a real Fazzoletto that I would have liked to try.
The pizza is easily the main attraction at Marcello's. I could write a love song to it, but take my word and try it for yourself.
Terra is the veggiest- veggie bomb of a pizza. With extremely fresh toppings you'll be left wondering if they hand-pick them out from a garden every morning. The crust is thin, crunchy and ever-so-lightly oiled.
I also tried the Gnocchi Al Pomodoro, but it was underwhelming after the pizza. The sauce was a little underseasoned and watery for my liking.
