Mercato Mio Italian Market

Mercato Mio Italian Market is a new Italian inspired restaurant located inside the Hilton Garden Inn State College on East College Avenue. Our focus is to design dishes with an Italian-like simplicity so that the quality of our ingredients and the care with which they are handled defines and distinguishes us.

Being open for such a short time before the impact of COVID-19, our biggest challenge has been letting the local community know we are here. We are currently offering a dinner menu of our select favorites, including family-sized options, which are available from 4-9 p.m. every day either for curbside pick-up, or through online delivery services Uber Eats, Grub Hub, and Door Dash. Knowing how difficult these times are for us all, we are promoting several daily specials including:

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday – 20% off your entire order

Wednesday – 30% off Nonna’s Meatballs

Thursday – 30% off Nonna’s Chicken

Friday – 30% off Rigatoni

Saturday – 30% off Nonna’s Lasagna

We are also offering one free kids’ meal per purchase of an entrée seven days a week when you call in to our restaurant to place your order. See the rest of our menu as well as other specials and features on our Facebook page, facebook.com/mercatomioitalianmarket.

Though our intended method of delivery has changed, our goal is still to provide our customers with an enjoyable experience; a moment to just let the world carry and simply smile at a good bite of food. Thank you from all of us at Mercato Mio for giving us a chance to earn a place in your hearts and your homes. Ciao!
