Marcello’s, a family-run restaurant located in Clock Tower Square on Main Street, brings generations of culinary tradition to the table with a modern, laid-back twist.
Since opening in 2023, it’s quickly become a destination for locals and visitors alike who want great food, warm service, and an experience that feels a little more special than your average night out.
A Dining Experience That’s Anything But Ordinary
Okay, we have to start by talking about the pasta that’s got everyone buzzing.
The signature cheese wheel pasta goes beyond being just a dish. It really is a full-blown event.
Your server rolls out a massive wheel of cheese, pours in a splash of grain alcohol, and lights it up tableside. The flame melts the cheese into a rich, molten pool, and then fresh linguini is tossed right in, soaking up all that decadent, nutty flavor. As a final touch, it’s finished with shaved truffle for an indulgent hit of umami.
It’s dramatic. It’s Instagram-worthy. And it’s absolutely delicious.
But don’t let the show steal all the spotlight. The rest of the menu is packed with thoughtfully prepared dishes—from slow-roasted suckling pig with cherry pepper jus to seafood-stuffed salmon and even a handmade chocolate fettuccine with pistachios and creamy Madeira sauce.
Happy Hour Deals You’ll Want to Bookmark
Marcello’s also offers one of the best-kept Happy Hour secrets in Fairfield County.
Held in the bar area Tuesday through Friday (with Thursday specials lasting all night), the Happy Hour menu includes:
- $2 off bottled beers
- $3 off drafts
- $4 off glasses of wine
- $5 off specialty cocktails and martinis
- 50% off full bottles of wine (excluding reserve list)
And yes—there’s a bar menu, too. Think garlic bread with cheese, crispy calamari, Mom’s meatball sliders, truffle parm fries, pizzas, and more. Perfect for an after-work hang or casual date night.
A Family Legacy, Reimagined
Marcello’s is led by the father-son duo Nicholas and Idilio DeVellis, seasoned chefs who infuse every plate with the passion and creativity of true restaurateurs. The restaurant is named after Nicholas’s late grandfather, a tribute to family traditions that now live on through food, hospitality, and community.
While the DeVellis name has long been associated with other popular spots in the area, like Giove’s Pizza and the former Trattoria Carl Anthony, Marcello’s represents a new chapter—more rustic, more approachable, and refreshingly lively.
They’ve also introduced live music nights, transforming the dining room into a full-blown neighborhood hangout. Check their website for upcoming shows featuring local bands like Sister Funk and No Strings Attached.
