    happy hour rigatoni, crispy chicken, and BOLOGNESE
    Mia O.

    went for a quick girl's happy hour catch up and decided Marmo was the place! We sat outside and it was so beautiful and such a vibe! The portions are pretty small but for $5, can't complain!

    SQUID INK CAMPANELLE
    Kathy D.

    I made a reservation at Marmo for a party of seven at 8:45 PM, but we weren't seated until 8:59 PM. Not a big deal on its own, but the experience went downhill from there. We ordered everything at once, and our server mentioned bread would come with a mascarpone spread. The bread arrived, but the spread never did. The wait for food was very long--by 9:37 PM, we still hadn't received appetizers. When the food finally came, everything (apps and entrées) arrived at the same time. There were also several order issues. My friend ordered a piccolo squid ink pasta but was given a larger (and more expensive) grande. I ordered my steak medium, but it came out rare. When I asked, the server initially insisted I ordered medium rare in a rude tone, then later admitted I was right and took it back. It came back overcooked and burnt--unacceptable for an $88 steak. The rest of the food didn't make up for it. My pasta was overcooked and falling apart, and the sides were room temperature and overly salty. To top it off, there was a "facilities fee" added to the bill that was never disclosed anywhere, which felt misleading. The ambiance was nice, but it was so loud. Overall, between the long wait, poor service, incorrect orders, and disappointing food, the experience was not worth it. I wouldn't return.

    Ladies Night Out at Marmo was definitely one for the books! The vibes were immaculate--drinks flowing, laughter nonstop, and just an overall good time with the girls. What we tried: * Caesar salad - fresh, light, and a solid starter * Bolognese - rich, hearty, and comforting * Chicken parmigiana - cheesy, saucy, classic done right * Crawfish risotto - not quite the hit we expected, a little underwhelming * Gulf red snapper - THE STAR OF THE SHOW! Let's talk about that snapper...baby, it was divine! Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and sitting in that creamy sauce like it knew it was the moment. Easily the standout dish of the night. Overall, Marmo delivered on flavor, ambiance, and experience. Even with the risotto missing the mark a bit, everything else more than made up for it. Final: Great food, great energy, and a perfect spot for a girls' night or date night. I'll definitely be back!

    Wow wow wow. This is a must try restaurant in Houston. Here are some details about the experience. The boundaries of Italian definitely are expanded by this spot! Our server Fernando was kind and informative about the menu items; including being attentive to our small party Atmosphere: Enjoyed a beautiful early spring dinner on the patio. Blending some people watching with great weather. Food: Delicious, creative and a party for the taste buds. Nice pre-course bread and cheese. Some seafood items, some traditional items and a few twists on before seen dishes (specifically regarding the apps) Service was good, but I was just a little thrown off by the mandatory 20% gratuity for our party of five. (Slight drop in the score) Good experience and all things considered, I would go again.

    Went here for an impromptu date night! All the tables were reserved, but we were told we could sit at the bar and I'm honestly so glad we did. The bartender was super helpful and knowledgeable about everything on the menu and was very attentive and let us have a great experience. The food was phenomenal, and we definitely loved every bite that we had. We will definitely be returning in the future! Would highly recommend

    Oysters, veal bolognese, spicy rigatoni

    Soso perfect for a date night that doesn't destroy your piggy bank! There was live music, attentive bartenders, and beautiful interior. We got an assortment from the happy hour menu and, though portions were small, it was to expected by the $5-$8 price range for each dish.

    EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA
    Sunny B.

    Upscale Italian food with limited vegetarian options. I visited with a group of friends and tried two appetizers (Caesar salad and burrata) and had the eggplant parm. Eggplant parm was unique and tasty. It comes as a stacked square shape with layers of eggplant and a breaded crispy layer on top. I only saw two other spaghetti dishes available as other entree options. As with most Italian food spots meals are carb heavy for vegetarians and not as filling. Ambiance was upscale but service was very slow the day we went. Our food and check took a while to come out. Total meal time was more than two hours. I don't think I would visit again due to limited vegetarian food options and high price point.

    A great HH at Marmo! One of the best and affordable HH menu's I've seen. I would highly recommend getting the Oysters, Ceaser Salad, and the White Fish Rillette. The lamb was okay, it was a little chewy and the pasta could use a bit more salt. It does get really crowded during this time but outside seating is just as wonderful! Overall, 8/10.

    TUSCAN FRIED CHICKEN
    Amanda C.

    Came here on a whim. Didn't know they have a happy hour menu. It gave us an opportunity to try a few items and drinks. Our waiter Isaiah was very hospitable and gave us a few suggestions on what to try. He was so sweet and gave us a complimentary glass of prosecco to cheer our evening. They had live music, which we particularly enjoyed. We stayed after dinner and dessert o hear him.

    The service fro. Start to finish was impeccable!! Comfortable, not rushed, attentive but not overwhelming. We had the charcuterie starter and it was delicious. I had the gnocchis with Ragú and fava beans and wow!!! Was amazing. We did the small portions of pasta and trust me it's so much!! My husband did the penne ala vodka and the pasta was perfection!! Homemade and very good. Desserts were lovely. The panna cotta was for sure the way to go! We really enjoyed the whole experience as well as the food. 100% would go back and would recommend.

    BOLOGNESE PASTA

    Food was great service was very fast and friendly ambience with a few drinks a vibe. Definitely worth the spend.

    GRANDE SQUID INK CAMPANELLE
    Courtney W.

    Nice spot in Montrose!! Appreciate the valet which is validated by the restaurant. Excellent service- Nicole took great care of me and my friends!! Gave great recs too. The apps are just ok to me- meatballs are fine, charcuterie board isn't that large, all pretty standard. Not anything bad but not anything to write home about either. The mains are really where it's at. The squid ink pasta is phenomenal- the pasta isn't overcooked at all, the texture is perfection, and the crab meat is such a fun addition. The chicken Marsala was my fave- the sauce is full of savory mushroom goodness. Would come back just for these two dishes!

    ENDIVE SALAD
    Amenda K.

    Marmo has been all over my TikTok, so I decided to finally try it out with my family, and I totally understand the hype. I honestly think about the rigatoni alla vodka pasta daily. Gosh, it was so good. Not a want, but a need to go back! I ordered the piccolo size, and it was the perfect size for me. I added grilled chicken with it, which was okay. Maybe I'll try lobster with it next time. We shared the endive salad as an app, which was delicious. My parents ordered the gulf red snapper and veal chop milanese, which they unfortunately didn't like too much. (We'll probably stick to the pastas on future visits.) My sister ordered the spaghetti alla chitarra, which she said was okay. We made a reservation for a Friday night, and we were immediately seated upon arrival. The staff was very attentive and service was quick. One of the managers even stopped by our table, and we chatted with him for a little bit. They have a pianist near the bar, but we couldn't really hear them because there was also music playing in the background. There is valet available, which they validate. There's also a parking garage for the Montrose Collective area, but I'm not sure if you have to pay for it. Overall, I give 5 stars for vibes and 4 stars for food. I'll definitely be back, most likely for their happy hour with the girlies. Who can beat $5 pasta!

Mimo's offers a great selection of Italian inspired apps, three well appointed pizzas, a few varied and surprising options for pasta dishes, and some mains. Items we tried: Pane - delicious Roasted Carrot Pizza - AMAZING, A little spicy, but definitely something we would order again. Pastas we ordered initially came out cold - our incredible waiter immediately corrected the issue. But from a flavor profile - Pansotti - sooooo delicious. You'd never guess that it was a vegetarian option - the mushrooms were so meaty. The delicate pouches with the spinach and ricotta were heavenly. Pappardelle - The lamb braised sauce had a depth of flavor that could rival any restaurant in Italy. My only tiny hope was that the pasta would have been served aldente, it was a little overcooked. But to each his own. Overall - really great. Would recommend. This would be great for a weeknight dinner or an off the beaten path date night.

The build-your-own pasta menu was fantastic and offered so many different options. The weekday happy hour until 6:30 p.m. is hard to beat, especially with $6 Aperol Spritzes and margaritas. The complimentary focaccia bread was delicious, and the olive oil, balsamic, and garlic dipping sauce was the perfect touch. We also ordered the fried calamari, and the sauce it came with was unlike any marinara I've ever had--in the best way possible. Everyone there was incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere made me feel like I was transported somewhere else entirely. It's also very family-friendly, making it a great spot for any occasion. Definitely my new date night spot, and I can't wait to come back. I highly recommend Mia Bella's to anyone looking for amazing food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

The inside of the restaurant is decorated with so many Italian knick knacks which gives this place a cozy vibe. Instead of ordering an appetizer and an entree, my friend and I decided to order 3 things from the appetizer menu: Arancini Montanare Impepata Napoletana The arancini was delicious! The exterior/crust wasn't too thick and was fried nicely. As for the filling, it had cheese, beef, and tomato sauce- yum! I really enjoyed the montanare because it came with 3 different toppings. Not to mention, the bread was fantastic! All 3 were great but my favorite was the one with smoked provolone, anchovy, and the red chili on top (I believe that's what the red topping is). The Impepata Napoletana was another solid dish- loved the white wine sauce with garlic and pepper. Although it was a tad bit too salty for me, it paired nicely with the bread. For dessert, my friend got the pistachio gelato and I ordered the Tiramisu. Both were a great way to end dinner. Food was wonderful, our waiter was very friendly/welcoming, and the vibes were lovely.
