Marcello's
$$ | Warehouse District
There are two very good reasons to visit Marcello's: comforting Sicilian-American dishes at a reasonable price, and the well-stocked wine store (and cellar) next door, where diners choose from a wide selection of Italian wines to accompany their meal (markups are slightly below regular restaurant prices). Southern Italian food might not scream New Orleans, but the convivial bistro atmosphere, made more picturesque by the passing St. Charles streetcar, will make you feel part of the neighborhood crowd.
