This is a terrific little restaurant with amazing wines and some of the best Italian food in the city. Everything was perfect, from the meatball appetizer to the bolognese pasta. The meat sauce on the pasta was spicy and flavorful, and even the dinner salad was an interesting delightful treat with multiple lettuces and vegies. It was obvious that everything... More

Marotta's menu hasn't changed much over the years and that is a good thing. They make delicious calamari, shrimp gremolata, and thin-crust pizza. Service is very friendly but if you want things quickly, you have to arrive early. The restaurant is small and cozy and in the summer you can sit outside if you don't mind a patio near a... More

We ate here years ago when they first opened, but haven't been back, due to the "No Reservations" policy and nowhere decent to wait if you put your name in for a table. However, tried it on a whim last Friday evening, for an early pre-concert dinner with my mum. We arrived at the restaurant with an hour and a... More

Thereis no beter pizza within miles of Marotta's. The standard menue is short in numbers but the standeards are covered. Especially good is their saltimbaco and veal marsala. They supplement their menue with several carefully prepared dishes in the northern Italian style usually a seafood or beef dish.

Gourmet pizza, pasta, salads. We think it's the best Italian food in the Cleveland area, including Little Italy. Nice back patio for summer dining.

We discovered the pasta was excellent while carbohydrate loading before the 2012 Cleveland Marathon. The house red wine also put us in just the right frame of mind. The pasta came with a salad and bread for a delicious, filling meal. We ate in the outdoor dining area behind the restaurant this time but have eaten inside before. Dining at... More

I think this is a hidden gem. We arrived on a weeknight evening, near closing time, and were the only ones in the restaurant. We were treated like royalty, everyone was very nice (isn't everyone nice in Cleveland?), and we were not rushed at all even though we stayed past closing time. Now the food -- the best is the...

As part of a day on the town, our group of five friends came here for some pizza + wine. We didn't have a reservation but arrived at 5pm and were able to get a table, despite a large party at the from of the restaurant. The dining room is long and narrow but this gives way to a cozy... More
