Bistro Di Marino: Experience Authentic Italian Seafood Delicacies in Collingswood

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a fantastic BYOB restaurant that truly exceeded my expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the most amazing appetizers of fried calamari and shrimp wrapped in pancetta. The flavors were out of this world, and the pesto dip for our bread was so delicious that we couldn't stop eating it! The outdoor ambience of this place is incredible! This was my second time there, but it was my first time sitting outside, and I was blown away by the charming and relaxing atmosphere. The general manager, Christa, made our experience even more special by coming around to check on us and even giving us chocolate-cello, which was a delightful touch to end the evening! And I can't forget to mention the gnocchi! The homemade gnocchi in pesto sauce was divine, and the gnocchi with lobster was equally impressive. This restaurant has truly mastered the art of gnocchi, and I can't recommend it enough. If you're looking for a place with outstanding food and a lovely atmosphere, this is it! And if that wasn't enough--they offer multiple specials on different days of the week. They have virgin sangrias that are perfect for a refreshing drink, delicious mussels that are a must-try, and even a day when kids eat free, making it a great spot for families! The variety and quality of the specials make each visit unique and enjoyable. Highly recommend checking it out for a delightful dining experience!

Second time here this year. We were here to meet friends and unfortunately it was suppose to be the 10th not the 9th! Well. . . . we'll be here again tomorrow for another fabulous meal! Bon Appétit !!

My wife and I celebrated all our mile stones here. We revisited it last night and this place has not skipped a beat! The service, the food, the people and the atmosphere are all amazing. The gnocchi is still the best I ever had and Jim is whipping up some amazing new recipes on the new wood fired grill. We cant wait to go back!

My $150 order was cancelled by the business and never delivered, but my card was still charged. I was unable to get in touch with the business via phone or email for a week, but eventually was able to text someone from catering who responded, albeit slowly. If ordering delivery, I recommend not using their website app and only using a more responsive third party vendor (eg doordash) to avoid this issue.

Did not know about this place and was completely taken back of how awesome everything was! There will be a need for me to go back. :) The outdoor seating in the back is superb and the ambiance at night time is great! I sampled each of the dishes we had and everything was excellent. Service was completely professional and top notch. Prices were a liitle high but worth every penny. You have to go check this place out!

We ventured back to the original Bistro di Marino last night, it’s been a while. We had a great dinner experience again, start to finish. Great atmosphere, with some soft music too. Our server Andrew was on point the entire time, very friendly, always checking on us if we needed anything and he didn’t rush us. Food was spread out time wise and not on top of each other. The other staff were great as well including the hostess that sat us, the bus boys who always refilled our water glasses and other servers helping out. Food was hot, great portions and delicious. We’ve seen some bad reviews and I think they’re really trying to make things right again so I definitely would not mark them off your list. We’ll definitely be back again, thx Bistro!! Oh, the fish dish picture had extra sauce on it by request, we like our food swimming. lol

I recently dined at Bistro Di Marino with friends and had an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with charming décor that captured the essence of Italy. The food was incredible—fresh, vibrant flavors with top-quality ingredients. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the seafood was fresh, and the antipasti was a delightful start. Our waiter, Matthew’s, was outstanding. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and his recommendations were spot on. Matthew’s friendly demeanor added to our enjoyment of the meal. Dessert was the perfect end to our evening. The tiramisu was light and creamy, and the lemon ricotta cheesecake was rich and tangy. In summary, Bistro Di Marino, offers delicious fresh food, a great atmosphere, exceptional service, and delectable desserts. Highly recommended!

I attempted to get another carry out order on Sunday, January 11th. App indicated the restaurant was open for business. Then I got a cancellation on the online order app. A 5 minute ride over to the restaurant Showed the proof of it not being open. Disappointing! I ended up going over to another italian restaurant up the street. I told the person what I encountered , and immediately , he said , yes , they have a reputation with being a little sketchy , sometimes with operation.
