We just had a lunch date at Marchello's, it was delicious! We each got a different entree so we could sample each others and all 3 were good. If you want some good Italian food, give it a try! read more

The food was amazing! I went to lunch with coworkers. We each ordered something different so that we could try several things. We had veggie lasgna, seafood ravioli, and cheese ravioli. After telling the owner how great the food was, he sent me home with eggplant parm. LOVED IT! read more

Marchello's - Fettuccine Alfredo - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

First time and on point. Great flavor and huge sub sandwich. We had it delivered and she was super nice and friendly. Our food was still warm and delicious. Thank you read more

I had high hopes for this place, as there were reviews praising their authenticity, however, I left here feeling quite un-sated. The setting is pretty relaxed. It's open and you get your choice of seating. Our server was very friendly, which was really the only positive of our experience. I ordered the Bistro Medallions, which came with 2 steak medallion wrapped in bacon and seasoned with mushrooms. It was served with a side of chicken alfredo and 2 shrimps. The shrimp was cooked well, but the chicken tasted like the chicken that comes with microwaveable pasta. It had a plastic taste. My sister got their Seafood Special, which included a crab cake with alfredo, seafood ravioli and shrimp. Her crab cake was hot on the outside and room-temperature in the middle and her seafood ravioli was lacking in filling and taste. My boyfriend got the Chicken Marsala Pasta. His chicken was similar to mine in that it did not taste fresh and his pasta was very runny. Overall, it was not a great Italian food experience. Presentation was nice, but their food was lacking and our stomachs did not agree. I hope they prove everyone after me wrong! read more

This merchant must be the most unprofessional merchant in this entire city. Not only did they disrespect my customer, but apparently they went so far as to get me terminated off of GrubHub. If you don't want to be burned in the event of any issues, stay as far away as possible! read more

Food is mediocre Italian food, but it wasn't too bad. 2 stars just because service was disappointing. Took a little over 45 minutes to get our food, and it was 3 tables including ours. Another table started to realize that food was taking awhile and started to complain. The look on the servers face was so fake and sarcastic. Home girl needs to fix that face. read more

Marchello's - Fine service, eh. - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Still doing takeout only, and food isn't as great anymore. Said they can't get help. Pre-pandemic I ate there a few times and it was ok.

I walked in 30 minutes to close. Take out only. Dining room was closed per Covid measures (I would bet) I ordered Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo (13 and change) 10 minute waitPlenty of staff on a busy Friday. Got home 30 minutes later. Food was still a good warm temp. I'm writing this so I don't forget this spot but also to hype up this place. Don't go off the 1 star Karen's out there. read more

Rude waitress lizabeth or something. Food came out cold was the first red flag and I'm absolutely positive it made me sick.

I really enjoy the food & staff here, but a few weeks ago I could not reach them to order to go... I finally got a hold of them, ordered my meal, & when I picked it up the young girl (relative??) manning the phone would not answer the phone or after several rings picked it up & hung it up. She did not seem busy, hanging around, but appeared to want to talk to the other workers who where busy cooking or rapping up food. I hope this gets fixed, bec food & most of staff are so nice & trying to keep up with need! read more

Delicious! Clean! Big portions! Tons of options! Home made and made from scratch! I'll start from the beginning. Normally I don't enjoy salad bars because they are low quality and stale, but this one was quite the opposite! The lettuce was fresh and crisp, they had enough vegetable options and amazing house made ranch. I'm pretty sure the croutons were homemade, I could taste the basil. Was very satisfied for only paying 1.99 for the salad. It was just one trip. I got the spaghetti with marinara which was BAKED through an oven with mozzarella on top, tasted amazing. Was almost too much cheese, but I didn't mind it and just took off what I didn't want. The marinara is made in house and was not overly sweet. My fiancé got the Romano pasta dish. He thought it was delectable. The cream sauce was savory and he really enjoyed the capers. The artichokes (and other vegetables) were very fresh and tasty. Being an Italian himself, he gives Marchello's an A for authenticity. Both of our meals came with two piece of garlic bread. Both of our meals were also at least two portions. All in all, We were very happy with the price! Only $20 for the both of us and it was essentially 4 meals. read more

Great food. Never disappointed when I order something from there. Been eating there for years now! Glad that they are so close to my house.

Been meaning to do delivery for lunch from them for several months. I finally did! Food came quickly (20min) was delicious and fresh! I ordered the vegetarian lasagna with side salad for lunch. read more

Marchello's - Side salad - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

I went with my brother to order a large half pep half jalapeños. I don't know if the pizza was raw or undercooked. After we ate it 30 min later I went to quick trip on 31st and Seneca to go use the bathroom and it was like I had eaten Taco Bell. My stomach did not enjoy the pizza because it was like I had a ticking time bomb. I felt a lot of pain in my stomach like I was going to use the bathroom on myself. Never again will I order Marchellos again. If I could rate it a zero based on my experience I would have. I paid for a $20 dollar pizza to clean my colon. read more

Marchello's - Large Half pep Half Jalapeños. - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

I am not a restaurant snob nor am I a connoisseur of fine Italian food. My experience at Marchello's today at lunch was abysmal. The service was very disappointing. The wait staff never checked back with me nor did he seem to care. To top it all off they wanted to charge me $2.00 for a to go cup. I asked the owner about it and he wanted to argue with me about the fact that the drink was included in the lunch special so they couldn't give me one to go. My chicken Alfredo was good but tasted like the chicken Alfredo at Pizza Hut. Nothing spectacular. My next Italian experience in Wichita will NOT be at Marchello's. The sad thing is that I was looking for catering for my job. Hmmmmm...... read more

Marchello's - the best of italy - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Based on a friends recommendation, this was the spot to hit. This place could be a bit difficult to find with the horrible road construction. The inside had a great smell to it and was filled with people in the booths. There were plenty of tables that were empty. Our waitress was prompt and noticed us immediately. Service wise, it was great but sometimes a bit intrusive. It's better to have a lot of service than no service. I ordered the large portion of Chicken Parm, and a friend ordered the Hero sandwich. For drinks, just tea. The wait time was relatively short. About 10 minutes to be exact. When I get something quick, I am very suspicious if the food was even made fresh, but just reheated. My suspicions were correct. Our waitress brought our food and warned me that the plate was extremely hot. That part she was correct on and on the spot. The negatives - What I got was lukewarm to cold noodles, un-breaded chicken, and barely melted cheese on top. The sauce tasted like it was spoiled and too sour and overly tarty. My bet, since I've worked in the food industry that this was prepared probably not today but a few days ago, and was sitting wrapped up in saran wrap in a refrigerator. Which would explain why it was so cold, but the plate was hot. They probably threw it in a oven which was why the bottom was hot but the top not even hot. The only thing remotely fresh was the garlic bread. This really disappoints me as people rate it highly, but nothing was made fresh. For a 8-9 dollar dish, it should have been all fresh and took a good 20-30 minutes to be made. The noodles were legit and good, but the rest of it was pure disappointment. The Olive Garden produces better food than this. Why would any restaurant resort to lazy tactics? The only positive to this experience, was that the waitress offered me to have the dish remade or at least a different menu item. I kindly declined. She charged me for a small lasagna and took 10% off the order. With drink, I still paid about 8 dollars and some change. The two stars is only 2 because the service was its saving grace. The food.... well I wouldn't eat the Chicken Parm. Stick with the salad and sandwiches. read more

I've only ever had the lasagna. I like it. I'll probably come back. However, I'm a bit dissatisfied this trip as per the following conversation I had with the waitress. Me: can I have another piece of bread please? Her: they only come three to an order. Me: but my order only came with two. I need another to clean up all this tasty goodness. She just walked away. I'll have to be content with only two pieces of bread. That's okay. I'm fat anyways. read more

I wished I would've taken a picture of the tiny pieces of eggplant from the eggplant Parmesan. I feel like I could've made this better basically it was noodles. I want to support local businesses but I keep getting SCAMMED out of my money!! I definitely won't be back!!! read more

Blech. The marinara is canned and just tastes funky. Don't know what tomatoes they use but it has a bitter earthy flavor that is just not good. read more

Was hopeful after reading reviews but let down again with an Italian restaurant in Wichita. Should have I have known when we ordered the bruschetta and the bread was a half cut hoagie roll with a spread of ricotta cheese and mozzarella on top? The tomatoes looked like they were just cut when we ordered, put into the ramekin and added balsamic-no oil, no basil....terrible and sad attempt at this appetizer. Ordered the Lilly and was loaded with sauce and more cheese on top. paid $1.49 for artichokes and there was 1-2 pieces. it was ok. Husband had jumbo ravioli and said it was okay as well. 2 good comments are that the food was hot (ran through a pizza oven) and they had spumoni ice cream. Great place for cheep so called Italian. read more

Eggplant rollatini- I can't even really tell you everything that was in this dish but all I know is that it was delicious. The eggplant was flavorful without being soggy and I was surprised by how much I wanted to keep eating the marinara sauce. The cheese that covered and stuffed the eggplant was delicious as well. Definitely my favorite thing we tried. Spinach & artichoke dip- it wasn't bad at all but I've had better. Just kind of a basic dip. They also put marinara sauce on the top of it which was weird but not bad. Served with sliced and toasted focaccia bread. I think I would have preferred a less herby and whiter crustier bread. Pasta salad- I give it a B. Not bad, but not much to write home about (or to write in this review about, bada-bum). Chicken caesar panini- okay first of all, their paninis are definitely not traditional paninis. They are open faced, not grilled, and the bread is a thick bun of focaccia. They put so many vegetables on it (cucumbers even) that it was kind of a salad. I loved the smoked melted Gouda and Caesar dressing but I wish there had been more. I paid a dollar to add bacon but it wasn't freshly cooked, just packaged bacon bits. I was overwhelmed with bread I ended up mostly just eating the toppings off of it. Cannoli- I have no idea if I just don't like cannoli or if they make bad cannoli but we were not a fan of it. The ricotta cheese filling was just too chunky and made me feel like I was eating a cottage cheese stuffed hard taco, it had a very unpleasant texture. We got delivery, we also ordered a side salad and an italian panini but I didn't try that. It was $38 total including tip and delivery fee. Really not a bad deal, and I'll most likely order delivery from them again when I'm feeling lazy and don't want to leave the house. They have nothing on places like Bella Vita or Lucianos but I was surprised with how much I liked it, I didn't expect much. Cool. read more

Marchello's - Side salad, eggplant rollatini, italian panini, spinach and artichoke dip, chicken Caesar panini, and cannoli for one. - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Overpriced and not traditional, unless putting jarred sauce on noodles is authentic. Recommend just buying your favorite store pasta sauce and save some money. read more

Top rate...the best in ICT! Don't think any other Italian restaurant can compare to Marchello's. My go to when someone mentions Italian food. read more

Wonderful little hole in the wall Italian place! The food is so deliciously Italian that you would expect to find some little old Italian grandma in the kitchen cooking. We now live close enough to enjoy their food once a week or so. The cooks and servers are very nice and friendly. I have never had to wait for drink refills or for anything else I needed. read more

Your local Italian restaurant that's always been good every time I have ordered food from here or dined in. I dined here recently and from what I see with one of the employees who makes the food to preparing what you order He doesn't care to wear any gloves and was outside smoking or doing whatever came back inside after touching things to go back to food line to make food Pizza what I seen touching toppings to whatever else... To go outside to coming back inside and go directly to preparing food without washing hands doesn't do it for me I find that to be gross! That's how people get sick in the long run. As good as this place I might return but I will speak with management read more

Got this as a delivery through a delivery service. This was the worst meal I've ever paid for. I ordered a calzone... the toppings inside were none of what I ordered. The spinach and artichoke dip was cold and had a blob of cold cheese on top. They replaced my canolli with a piece of cheesecake that was still completely frozen through. Won't be ordering again. read more

Marchello's - Hero Sub - Italian Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

I love this place...one of the few great places to eat in this area of Wichita. We've only dined in once long ago...we usually get this delivered, so I can't speak to the service really. First, their pizza is really good...not crappy chain pizza, but like homemade with fresh toppings. We tend to order the same thing each time because we love them so much...hubby gets the Lily's pasta which I think is to die for, but since I'm not supposed to eat gluten or dairy, I usually get the Lily's salad which is my go-to there. Recently had a gal over to the house and she was ecstatic that we were ordering from there cause she used to work close and missed it. She got a calzone, and man did it look good, too. Delivery is not quick, so plan ahead...usually takes 45-60 minutes during peak hours, but is totally worth it. read more

We both had the Chicken Parm for lunch. Great food large bowl. I finished mine. Will be back when in the area

This restaurant has good food, and reasonable prices. That being said, they are HORRIBLY unprofessional. Thank god it wasn't a first date, because I went with my boyfriend at the time. We ordered and waited while they argued over who should take our table because everyone wanted to go home (they weren't even close to closing, literally had like 3-4 hours before they closed). Then when our food came, it was amazing! The kitchen and chef know what to do and there's no doubt about it. But our waitress took 10 minutes to bring us our food after it was done - she was on her phone and bickering with coworkers while we saw our food sitting on the bar ready to be given out. I don't know if it's just because management wasn't there, or if it's always that way. The only reason I would ever go back is because the food is super good. read more

We've been here twice and it's great! We like the food, the drink choices are alright, and the atmosphere is cute! It just takes SO LONG to get your food. I'm talking 35-45 minutes... for Italian food. We regret coming here every time because it takes so long. The food is good, order it to go and give them an hour to work on it first though. read more

Really love this place! Sometimes their service is a little slow but considering the food is so freaking good, I don't mind the wait! Plus they make their food from scratch. read more

After reading reviews having mixed feelings I decided to try anyway, which was a bad idea. The staff was nice but the food was not good. I ordered the chicken fettuccine Alfredo and it was as if the noodles cooked way to long the over taste was not good. My bread was burnt. I took it to go so I didn't have time to go back because I was across town. I would not recommend ordering the Alfredo and I won't be going back read more

To say terrible is an understatement. I have yet to even get home to try the food. I am furious at what I witnessed tonight. I walked in, gave my name and was told my food wasn't ready. Cool, no problem, excited for fresh food. Watch several customers go before me....get their food. Wait about 25-30 minutes. I stood closer and said..is it ready...they said, what's the name on the order? I tell them the name on the order and she says oh it's right here...the bag had been sitting there the whole time....during this wait I saw an employee hang up on a customer and say oh they'll call back if it's that important. read more

This place was great!! Hidden gem in a sea of evil that is the east coast!! Great food and service!! Good atmosphere!!

Highly disappointing. In from out of town I was craving Italian and there were many good reviews on yelp including "the best Italian food in the entire city of Wichita" and "authentic. Made by real Italians." I tried a classic... Chicken Parm... or at least that's what they called it. What it actually was was pizza topping chicken slices on top of fettuccine (another strange choice) with sauce and cheese. The chicken was actually sliced strips! No bredding no taste no good. Heated in the pizza oven, not fried or pan fried. The "salad bar" which some people were so impressed with was no more than a "make your own side salad" area. Salad bar suggests interesting toppings, unique veggies and mixed salads. Certainly more than the basics that this had. On the plus side. The red sauce and the Italian dressing were both tasty. Both tasted homemade. If this is the best Italian food in Wichita I certainly feel bad for you all who live here. read more

I have been here 3 times and each time have ordered the chicken cesar pianini. I love it!! Its focaccia bread with a type of herbed mayonnaise, grilled chicken, smoked Gouda, tomatoes, red onions,romaine, and slices of cucumbers with Italian dressing. The bread is always amazing soft. Its served with pasta salad which Im not really a fan of. You can substitute the pasta but I never have. Im not really into italian so I probably wont deviate from what I've ordered here so far too much. I do love pizza though and am planning to try that soon because the ones I've seen go out here look delicious. Its a small place so only a couple servers needed Im assuming for the most part. However, at busy times they seem to get stretched a little thin so adjust the needy customer within yourself accordingly. read more

I ordered a fettuccini carbonara, but what was plopped down in front of me was a platter of overcooked noodles, cream-based "alfredo" sauce and topped with processed packaged bacon bits. This is not a carbonara. I've talked before about the valley between authentic and Americanized versions of cuisine - largely when discussing Italian and Chinese restaurants. But where simplified Chinese food can still be somewhat decent - freshly-cooked meats and veggies aren't difficult in themselves - Americanized Italian food is typically subpar - heavy cream sauces, underseasoned red sauces sitting atop a pile of soggy noodles, a puddle of water pooling on the plate, and way too much cheese. Even in Wichita we have better options. Luciano's, Bella Vita, and Luca are all superior Italian restaurants, and then there are places like Ya Yas and Newport Grill that make their own pastas and would still be a better Italian experience despite not being actual Italian restaurants. The pizzas didn't look all that impressive, but I would suggest them or their sandwiches if you're looking to get a dose of marinara and carbs while avoiding disappointment. read more
