After years of work and saving, they opened the Italian Centre Shop in Bridgeland, which became part of the community for 30 years. In 2005, our family moved the business to the heart of the city and Mercato Mission became a full-service restaurant on 4th Street SW.At Mercato, we prepare each dish from scratch using ingredients from our market, serve an Italian-only wine list, and welcome guests into our open-concept kitchen. We’re proud to share our traditions with you and make every guest feel like family.","urls":{"menu":"https://service.scan2dine.io/p/1DiNzECtUB1D","about":"https://service.scan2dine.io/p/1DiNzECtUB1D/about","reservations":"https://www.opentable.ca/r/mercato-mission-calgary","website":"https://www.mercatogourmet.com/restaurant","knowledge":"https://service.scan2dine.io/p/1DiNzECtUB1D/knowledge.json","llms_txt":"https://service.scan2dine.io/p/1DiNzECtUB1D/llms.txt"},"cuisines":["italian","market","pasta","pizza"],"priceLevel":"$$$","location":{"address":"2224
