Colletta, meaning “collection,” brings its signature approach to American-Italian dining to the heart of downtown Jacksonville. Situated within the newly restored Hotel Merrydelle, originally the historic 1924 Ambassador Hotel, the restaurant embraces the building’s rich Georgian Revival heritage while maintaining a modern, inviting warmth. Colletta centers on genuine connection and the joy of gathering.

The culinary program is anchored in from-scratch traditions, featuring house-made pastas, hand-stretched wood-fired pizzas, and an exceptional Italian beverage program. Positioned as a cornerstone of the vibrant Pearl Square development, Colletta offers an atmosphere of approachable luxury, creating a premier yet familiar dining destination for both the local community and hotel guests.
